Oh, I was just going to have the entire soundtrack be instrumental, but ok. And I thought the show would look better if it had voice acting. We all have to make decisions outside our comfort zone. I guess Okay...

1. Can you please stop saying "I guess" whenever you disagree with something someone says instead of just saying that you disagree? You don't need to spare anyone's feelings here. You're just disagreeing with someone. Not telling them that their entire life is a waste.

2. Trust me, voice acting makes it more immersive for the audience. Without giving them something to read that's right in their face, they can focus more on everything, instead of just one element more than the others. They can look at the art style, the animation, the story, everything without having to concetrate on one thing. If anything, they should be concentrating on the plot. That is your #1 priority when it comes to making a show. Even though most people enjoy anime subbed, I think that's mainly because dubbed versions don't have very good voice acting relative to the character and/or initial lip syncing. It often sounds awkward, and so people prefer the subbed version. It's kind of a trade-off, and I think it makes people's expectations of anime quality higher. Voice acting is the preferred way to go. And if you're using Final Cut or Premiere, then you can easily normalize the audio, regardless of whether you're using a good mic or not.
