I heard the name "'Witchblade" floating around for awhile before I watched the anime, but what made me it sit down and watch was when I heard the main character Masane was a single parent. I hadn't seen an anime with a single female parent.
When I first started to watched it I most say the show seemed to have a split personality. It felt like the production team was split in to two camps one wanting to make a serious plot driven drama and the other wanting to make some borderline hentai.(Note if you watch the dubbed version transformed Masane totally sounds like a

porn star)
Luckily about half way in it seemed like the "plot driven drama" team killed all of the "borderline hentai" team and what we get as a result is pure AWESOME. The last few episodes are for a lack of a better word AWESOME. This show has something it took me a while to find and that's a PERFECT ENDING!
Subbed VS Dubbed
I'm going to do my best to be unbiased.
I have watched both mainly because Japanese censorship is weird (it's hard to find a subbed version where Masane's outfit isn't censored), but the dubbed aren't bad and for most of the show i'd say it doesn't matter which you watch. BUT in all honesty you must watch the last few episodes subbed. Because the english dub just doesn't cut it.
