Why do anime have different dubs and subs?

260 views

Phenomenon: Dubs and subs of the same anime usually have different lines.

Question: Why do they translate it twice? I mean, they can translate an anime once and for all, using that translation for both subs and dubs. I kind of wonder how the translation in sub and dub work is done.

Sub and dub localization is not a simultaneous process, hence discrepancies. And it’s not just for anime.
