Well subs is where there english (or any other language) subtitles on the bottom/top of the anime episode,where the characters are still speaking in Japanese,but the subs are sort of like translating what they characters saying,and Dubs are where a dubbing company tapes over the Japanese voices and turns them into (English/French/Spanish etc.),dubs are pretty much the taping over the original voices and giving the characters voices in another language but also the dubbing company could make some major changes (like in certain backgrounds or characters names,obviously the scripts and some scenes as well) here's an example below the picture (that's in Japanese) says "Shigeru is the best,Satoshi is an Idiot" while In the dub it was changed to "Gary was here,Ash is a Loser!"
Subs are only better than dubs because most dubs aren't executed properly. Poor voice acting can single handedly ruin the experience and my investment into a show or movie. Diehard weebs incoming!
List of Best English Dubbed Anime in Action
overall, i don't really have a strong preference one way or the other (unless the dub is awful, or absolutely amazing). that being said, i'd rather watch stuff as it comes out, not a year or two after the fact, and as such, this means most of the stuff i watch ends up being dubbed subbed. 14 level 2
Dragon Ball Z is the best example of how things can be completely different when the language of the show changes. In the dubbed version of Dragon Ball Z, Goku sounds like a grown man with a deep voice. The way he acts can simply be seen as being a playful father. But, in the Japanese version of the anime, Goku sounds like a child. This was obviously a character choice by the creators of the show. His voice gives us a completely different perspective on how we view Goku as a character. It is not that he is simply a playful father; he is actually a kid. And that is why he shuns his responsibilities and would rather train than do work. He is exactly like his children.
A YouTube web series explores the dubs vs. subs debate. The word dub originated in Hollywood in the late 1920s right around the time the first movies with sound were introduced. It comes from the word "double," since the process of dubbing means creating a second vocal track.

On the other side, there is also dubbing. For an anime to be dubbed, it means the title has been stripped of its original audio and given rerecorded dialogue, music, etc. Dubbed anime matched up animation with translate dialogue that is recorded in a variety of native language for international fans to then enjoy.

Subtitled materials are a way for foreigners to learn a new language. Fans of foreign materials, especially movies and Japanese animation, have been in constant debate upon which is better. Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.
