Official Pokémon ASMR is softly narrated by Attack on Titan VA Yuki Kaji
The official Pokémon YouTube channel has uploaded three new “Pokémon ASMR videos” narrated by Japanese voice actor Yuki Kaji, known for popular roles such as Eren Jaeger in Attack on Titan.
The three ASMR videos in question are of Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle relaxing in their natural habitats with crisp ambient sounds playing in the background. This is topped off with soft-spoken narration by Yuki Kaji. He comments the behavior of the Pokémon and gives the listener gentle instructions about how to relax before bedtime such as, “You feel warmth slowly envelop your body,” and “Your body gradually relaxes, starting from your legs.”
The Bulbasaur ASMR features forest sounds and birds singing, while the Charmander video includes comfy fire crackling. Lastly, the Squirtle ASMR features the sound of waves. All videos are about three minutes long. The official Pokémon YouTube channel features other, 1h+ long ASMR videos too, but the latest uploads are the only ones to feature voice lines by Yuki Kaji.
The official Pokémon account recommends listening to the videos with headphones on and using them for “healing” purposes in your free time.
