You Otaku Types Like This, Right? ~An Ear-Cleaning Reward for Sharing Your Report~ [CV. Izumi Mikoshiba]

An audio work about an hour and a half long. The story is about an otaku guy who gets his ears cleaned by a cheerful gyaru girl as thanks for letting her see his homework. The voice actress is Izumi Mikoshiba. This circle's works are mostly ear-cleaning focused, and this one is no exception. The ear-cleaning sound effects are strong, and as someone who likes this kind of audio work, I enjoyed it. Also, the intro before the ear cleaning is a bit short, but I felt it properly served its role as a lead-in to help you enjoy the main ear-cleaning portion even more.

This was a wonderful work packed with the bittersweetness and healing of youth! Just the situation of interacting with a gyaru at school is already heart-pounding, but having her clean your ears on her lap as thanks for letting her copy your notes was an incredibly appealing development—unrealistic yet somehow believable at the same time. In the special setting of the nurse's office, the gap between the gyaru's slightly rough way of speaking and her surprisingly gentle consideration is really charming. When she says something casual like, "Your notes really helped, so this much is the least I can do!" while cleaning your ears, you feel embarrassment and joy welling up at the same time—it really captured the feeling of adolescence with a strong sense of immediacy. The ear-cleaning sounds were realistic too; you could hear through the audio how the gyaru, though not used to it, was doing her best to clean your ears carefully, which made it feel even more soothing and special. The lines where she teases you for looking a little embarrassed, along with her casual kindness, were irresistible. It was an amazing ASMR work where you can experience the bittersweetness of youth and healing at the same time!
