Which otome CD voice actors have your favorite ear-licking performances?

[Kyouri]

When you think of dummy-head mic recordings, ear licking almost feels like a standard feature these days, since it seems like it's included in so many titles. So I guess people like you who aren't comfortable with it must have a pretty hard time finding recordings you can enjoy without having to skip through those scenes.

yeah, it's super difficult sometimes! TT Especially with doujin works. One of the main reasons I pirate so much because it sucks spending money on something I end up not being able to listen to much of. (lost count of how many things I bought just to end up putting it on the hide list on my dlsite app..) So super helpful for me to be able to listen to full works first, if I really like them, I add them to my list to purchase later..

It kinda sets off some my autistic sensitivity issues I think too... ^^; Even IRL in the past when I was sexually active, I *hated* when they'd do too much tongue action with my ears I'm like it's wet gross and loud djfhudhsud like it would trigger irritability for me sometimes which is uh.. not helpful for being in the mood LOL. but yeah, I wish I could enjoy it. :(

Though I also tend to enjoy stuff with more story anyway too. (but for R18, I really do like the other sounds of like pants/sighs/moans/whispering/etc so it's upsetting sometimes knowing you're the odd one out with your experiences and lacking things that can cater to you) I have noticed more official CDs that have less of those sounds, especially some of the older ones.. So I end up usually enjoying those a bit more. bad thing is, they're like several times more expensive.. I'd really like to find others with similar tastes though and maybe we could figure out a list of like... sensory-friendly circle/series or something LOL.

and another difficult thing that makes it *even harder* for me is that I *love* yandere but I *hate* breeder/pregnancy stuff. LOL. (I mean, to me logic wise it feels like a cheap/shallow way to "lock down" their darling anyway from a fictional story standpoint... cause it's like okay your darling being preggers means she's gonna feel sick and miserable and then when the baby is born, wayyyy less attention and focus towards the yandere which is like, the opposite of what a yandere usually wants??)

anyway thank you for reading my TED talk.

I'm pretty much a little bit of a generalist when it comes to genres, so I tend to listen to all kinds of things. I'm usually pretty open-minded about most genres and just think, "Oh, so this is a world that exists too!" So I haven't really had too much trouble finding things I enjoy.

But when you have very specific tastes, I imagine it must be quite a challenge to find works that really match what you're looking for.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that you find something that's an absolutely perfect match for your tastes!

Ichijo Hirame-san's ear-licking is sooo good too ❤ I'm totally into it! And he has such a huge number of works, so being able to enjoy so many different variations of his ear-licking is honestly one of the best things about him lol

And SAME, I absolutely LOVE Mondo Ash-san!! He really is ridiculously talented and versatile lol. Personally, I feel so much more attached to his works because he speaks the same dialect as me. Hearing him use my dialect is like, "WAIT, THAT'S MY DIALECT!!!" and it makes me feel weirdly close to him every time I listen to his works lol

I love how you said RIDICULOUSLY TALENTED He really is!! At first I thought woah this is kinda too much... And then I fell into it lol

Btw, I bet sharing the same dialect as a VA makes you feel way closer to them! Kinda makes me wish I spoke that dialect too… Mondo Ash-san is literally my favorite VA

When I first started listening to Otome CDs, I used to get so embarrassed that I'd practically squirm myself to death, but now that's almost nostalgic to me.

Anyway, so far, there isn't a single voice actor who is active in Otome CDs that I dislike, so I'm honestly just incredibly happy getting to listen to so many different voice actors and hear all of their performances.

I've also been getting a lot of mileage out of Ichijo Hirame-san's works too, haha.

Haha, I guess unless you were actually born and raised in that region, it's pretty hard to speak the same dialect naturally. Kansai-ben is really different from the way people speak in the Kanto region, especially when it comes to intonation, so a friend of mine who lives in Tokyo once told me that they find it really difficult to speak Kansai-ben.

I think it's probably similar to how I want to be able to speak a foreign language—especially English—as naturally as a native speaker. I really wish I could become super fluent in a foreign language like that!

Also, Mondo Ash-san has been releasing SO many new works lately, and I'm absolutely thrilled about it, but it's definitely not kind to my wallet, so honestly, I'm struggling.
