Anyone watching the Rugby World Cup in Japan? How are you watching it?

Hi, just got back to Japan from abroad and want to watch the rest of the Rugby World Cup matches. All the matches are on J Sports and certain matches are also shown on NHK and/or Ni-Tere. I like to listen to the original commentary rather than the Japanese commentary — does anyone know if J Sports or HNK or Ni-Tere are broadcasting with the the English language commentary seperately selectable? (I really like how WOWOW broadcasts the Six Nations matches in both Japanese and original English language versions). Anyway, before I subscribe to J Sports if anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful. Thanks in advance.

  1. Nippon TV is horrible even if you can understand the poor commentary.

    NHK has actual professional commentary and half time analysis, referee mic to listen to decisions…

    I haven’t tried j-sport, which is a paid channel AFAIK

    VPN for BBC or ITV worked for me in the past. This time I just took the high seas and get English commentary.
