Healing Ear-Cleaning Salon ~Mimi-Nadeya: Freshness~

This work is packed with healing sounds, and in fact I keep dozing off while listening. Unlike other voice works, the frequency with which I fall asleep is so high that it really shows how powerful the healing effect is. Listen → fall asleep → replay the same track → fall asleep → (。>д<) If I only listen to it at night, I never make any progress! (。>д<)

This work puts bubble sounds front and center. You can enjoy all kinds of bubble sounds in it. There aren't many works that commit to this concept so thoroughly, but for someone like me who loves bubble sounds, it gave me a really soothing time. I'd recommend it both to people who already love bubble sounds and to those who've never heard them before.

This installment is mainly about bubbles, with staff members Ayane and Umeka, along with two new staff members, Erena and Ito, taking care of the customer (the listener). This time the focus is on bubbles, and personally I think bubbles are even better than ear cleaning for sleep purposes, so I'd especially recommend it to people buying it for sleep. My favorite part was the ear-washing sound — it's a sound I personally really like, so I recommend it. One slight disappointment was that the bonus images that were included in the previous work, "Healing Ear Cleaning Shop ~ Miminadeya ~ Yoi," weren't included this time. That was a bit of a letdown. But the main content itself is beyond complaint.

To think that while still alive, I'd get to experience Yui Asami on one side, Nakuru Aitsuki on the other, and Popura from the back...!!! Igideee..... yogaddaaaaa!!!! (I'm so glad I'm alive!!!!) Nakuru was her usual fluffy, cute self as always, but Asami-san turned out to be the type who's composed but ends up flailing because of it, which I found refreshingly rare. Also, I love how Popura was being all "senpai senpai." And then!!!! A legend!!!! Kanoko!!!!!! And the sound of... bubbles!!! All I can say about this is that I love it. If you're curious, go listen for yourself! I'm off to sleep, see ya!

About 4 hours total with Kanoko, Popura Sawano, Nakuru Aitsuki, and Yui Asami. The usual ear cleaning and massages are plenty good as always, but the bubble and water cleansing sounds are superb. The sudsy, frothy feel of the shampoo and bubble massage is wonderfully pleasant.

This is the long-awaited second installment of the all-ages work "Healing Ear Cleaning Shop." It's been a huge help whenever I want to zone out, feel sleepy, or just need some "healing" in general! The fine, delicate bubble sounds are incredibly soothing, and before I know it I'm dozing off just from listening. I'm personally quite fond of the bonus healing ASMR track and listen to it often. There's no voice at all, so it's great for when you want to clear your mind. Every track leaves you feeling calm, but it's useless as background music for work — you'll just end up falling asleep, haha.

A work where you can enjoy all kinds of sounds. Listening to it when you're tired or want a little break is so soothing! There are some unusual sounds too, and letting yourself be healed by those is also a nice option! If you're looking for healing, this is a work you definitely won't regret buying! I got really hooked on it myself and have listened to it many times!

Welcome once again to the ever-familiar Miminadeya! This time, two new staff members have joined: Erena (え) and Ito (お)! And the one training these two newbies is none other than Umeka-san, aka "Ume-san"! But before that, make sure to fully enjoy Ayane-san's meticulously crafted healing. This time the attention to sound detail is next-level, especially the gentle "attacks" on the scalp — absolutely irresistible. I really do wonder if my hair gets prettier from this... On top of that, Ayane-san's gentle whispering guides you even deeper into a state of bliss... zzz. And then there's the new-staff training segment — to think that Umeka-san, who used to be all flustered herself, is now the one teaching the new recruits... it really hits you with a sense of nostalgia. In Erena's and Ito's individual ear-cleaning segments, their personalities really come through. Erena has a slightly airheaded charm, while Ito is reliable but a little fragile (lol) — comparing the two as you listen is a lot of fun.

The long-awaited new release. I'm a fan of the series, so I bought it immediately. First, I love how they clearly label and categorize which tracks are more conversation-heavy versus which ones focus more on the healing sounds themselves. With healing-type voice works, it's common to run into the issue of "I wanted to hear the treatment sounds, but the spotlight keeps going to the conversation instead"... so being able to choose which type you want is really great. Yes, really. The crinkly sound of shampooing was so well done that when listening with earphones, it smoothly slides from right to left — genuinely impressive. Also, the track at the end that layers healing music over the bubble/water sounds was lovely. The music doesn't overpower anything — it stays in the background, letting the natural bubble and water sounds shine, creating an ambient soundscape perfect for falling asleep.

New staff members have joined the Miminadeya series. This time it's the serious Ito and the gentle, scatterbrained Erena. As noted in the readme, the main tracks don't have much dialogue this time. You can think of it more as having occasional explanations of what's being done. At the end of Ayane's soothing healing segment, there was a lot of ear-blowing, which made me very happy. In contrast, during Umeka's new-staff training segment there's a lot more dialogue, and you get to enjoy seeing Umeka in her new role as a senpai. In this scene, under Umeka's supervision, the two newbies practice on her as their training subject. During the ear-cleaning scenes, both of them get nervous — worrying about accidentally poking an eardrum, their hands trembling or freezing up — and that flustered atmosphere is a must-listen. And finally, you get to experience individual healing courses performed by the new staff themselves. They're still a bit clumsy and unpolished, but it's a track where you can really feel their growth. It's been a while since I got to enjoy an all-ages healing voice work, and I'm very satisfied. It's technically part of a series, but there's no issue jumping in even if you haven't listened to the previous entries, so feel free to start anywhere.
