I know, I know.. I'm a NOOB to know this just recently. Well, actually, I've been hearing (and reading) about it a lot before, but it was only last night that I've first TRIED listening to a radio drama. I picked up a borrowed DVD which contains a lot of anime music and found this "Bleach Drama CD". Since there includes a word document that contains the translation, I've tried listening to it. And whoa, to my surprise, I LIKED it. Uh well, maybe since it's Bleach. But the experience is kinda unique, WAY different from watching the anime or reading the manga. You can really appreciate the seiyuu's voices more on the drama. I don't know if they are the same seiyuus from the anime, but they did the job perfectly. Also, you CAN really listen well to the background music. The OST on the anime and the drama is the same (well, it should be..) I wonder what'll be the impact of this drama to me if I I didn't know Bleach anime and manga before...
Hitsugaya: "Soten ni saze, Hyourinmaru!" [SFX: raawwrr]
Ichimaru: "Ikorose, Shinsou!." [SFX: whoosh]
~only voices and sfx are weird and awesome at the same time
Hinamori's voice and screaming is SO CUTE in the drama that you'll forget she's a weakling in the anime, haha...
Hinamori: (while attacking Histugaya) AAHHHHH!!!
