[Healing ASMR] Staying Over at Her Place, Sleeping Together — Ear Cleaning, Whispers, Sleeping Breath & Sweet Massage

This time, it's a story about staying over at your girlfriend Kanata-chan's place. The content is close to the first work in the series, with a composition focused on "whispering while sleeping together." Cuddling under the covers, massages, ear cleaning, sleeping together, and more. It's a work where you can spend a relaxing time with your beloved Kanata-chan. It might feel a bit long, but by listening from beginning to end, you should be able to fully savor the relaxed atmosphere of a couple in love. Even though it's called the Shinonome Kanata-chan series, it's structured so you can listen from anywhere, making it easy to pick up as a work. That's actually a pretty important thing, isn't it? I'm sure everyone has experienced something like this before. "This looks good, but I haven't listened to the first one" or "Starting from the first work seems like a bit much" or "I haven't listened to the one in the middle..." There's no need to worry about that with this work's structure. Works you can listen to casually are great, aren't they? My favorite scene in this installment is the "I like you, I like you" pillow talk in track 4. Kanata-chan telling me all sorts of affectionate things was so, so cute I couldn't stand it. I'm sure it'll put you in a happy mood. The final track is a sleeping-together track with Kanata-chan. Just like the first work, it's a track you can use when going to sleep. And Kanata-chan, voiced by Ichinose Rito, is so adorable it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her the ideal girlfriend. I've listened to the entire Shinonome Kanata-chan series from the beginning, and in every single work, Kanata-chan is unbearably cute. It's one of my favorite series to that extent, so personally I'd be happy if it continues on. Please do experience some idle, precious time with your girlfriend Kanata-chan. I highly recommend it.

This is a work where you get to feel like a mobile battery. What I mean is, Kanata-san, trying to make up for the lack of boyfriend time, clings to the protagonist with everything she's got. It's revealed in the story that the two of them couldn't make time for each other due to being busy, which makes the happiness even more intense. The nature of that busyness gives the impression that time has passed since the previous volume, and I wonder if this series might actually run on Sazae-san time... I'll look forward to the sequel. Despite the calm atmosphere throughout, the level of craftsmanship is off the charts. In track 1, the sense of presence as the two of you lean against each other on the futon, looking at a smartphone (?) together, is incredible. While chatting about the busyness of the mundane world and a sense of fulfillment (a distant memory for corporate slaves) during the ear cleaning, you can drift off to sleep. Sound-wise, it's just one word, but the "pan" (poof) sound in track 4 is so pleasant—that plosive sound is the best. Track 2 is meant for the right ear, but overall, the weighting leans more toward the left ear.

This is the 4th work in the "Shinonome Kanata" series by Ichinose Rito's circle "Ichinoya." As with previous works, both the scenario and the voice acting (CV) are by Ichinose Rito. It's a series, but you can listen to any entry without issue. Like the first work, this is a staying-over story. Previously, his girlfriend came to stay over, but this time he goes to stay at her place. What's great about this series, above all, is how natural her way of speaking, her behavior, and the sense of closeness feel. It really feels like you're together with your girlfriend. Before falling asleep, she whispers "I like you" and "I'm happy being with you" to you so, so many times. I especially love how Ichinose Rito's little bits of laughter and unspoken sounds in unguarded moments add to the realism.
