I can't wait to see how the Rocket missions will play out. :3

Wait, it'll be available worldwide, but it's still only in Japanese, right?

......It isn't worldwide if only Japanese Voice actors where doing the drama. Also, I highly doubt Animate.TV got the legal rights to do so, since ShoPro were uncertain that not only the amount of listeners they'll gather, but also the amount of INTERNATIONAL listeners as well; the Americans never bother with radio drama other than NPR.

My guess is it'll be subtitled somehow for people who don't speak Japanese?

Checked the site: pure Japanese. They most likely got permission to play the episodes for the rest of the japanese audience who's unable to listen to the on their radios.

But it is being streamed worldwide. Anyone can go to their site and listen to the show. That was my point with the article.

Regardless of a lack of English translation (a translated transcript would be nice, but I imagine the fans will probably do that themselves xD), the fact that they're not region blocking it is a great move.

First I find out that Hikounin Sentai Akibaranger is getting a radio show, and now this. My day is just getting better and better.
