Anime voice actress fart recording now on sale as ASMR audio file

Jul 17, 2020 (soranews24.com) - In Japan, as in much of the world, farting is considered an unpleasant, unwelcome sound. That’s why one office supply company designed fart-muffling seat cushions, and a separate group developed anti-fart sound-blocking underwear.

But just as one man’s poison is another’s pleasure, there are some (though not many) to whom gas escaping from the buttocks is as enchanting a sound as those produced by the finest brass horns or woodwind instruments...and it’s their needs that dojin (independent publishing) circle Inoshikachokan wishes to attend to with their latest creation: “I Want to Listen to the Real Farts of a Dojin Voice Actress!”

The audio file, which is roughly an hour in length, features dojin voice actress Kotori Hino farting in a variety of ways. In addition to an interview with the actress and a post-recording look back on the process, the file’s chapters are listed as:

● A Toot to Get Things Started

● A Clenched Fart

● Farting Inside a Sack

● Farting in the Bathtub

● Resisting the Urge to Fart While Masturbating

Inoshikachokan makes no claim as to whether the bathing, self-pleasuring, and other secondary conditions are real or simulated, but promises that the farts are entirely genuine. “The voice actress actually farts!” the product description excitedly reassures potential buyers. “To everyone who likes farts…please enjoy this!”
