Would you like to deliver the story of your ideal heroine as a voice work? [Image 1

Contest cooperation: DLsite (Asys Inc.)
What is the theme of the second recruitment?
The theme for the contest is “Habitual x Cute”!
It is the character of the heroine that gives depth to the fun of the work. Please create your own “story with a heroine with a strong, shining and attractive personality”.
In the second contest, we established the ASMR Grand Prize and the ASMR & Voice Drama Excellence Award. You can finish the manuscript aiming for the grand prize, or you can create a manuscript with a familiar dialogue play, and create a wonderful story with your own expression.
1. A work that assumes ASMR is GOOD if the heroine talks alone and is conscious of the sense of distance, such as talking in the ear. Incorporating elements that will make the viewers feel comfortable will increase the evaluation.
● ASMR reference work
1st Grand Prize Winner: Loved by Dialect Girls, Leisurely Living for Two ~ Onii-san is working hard. Is it okay if I heal you? ~

2. In a work that assumes a voice drama, it is desirable that it develops mainly with dialogue between the characters. Since jinomon is used as a topic or monologue, it is best to keep in mind the style of writing assuming that it will be viewed as audio or video.
●Voice drama reference work
1st Excellence Award Winner: I am not a Kramer

The number of characters must be 10,000 characters or more and 20,000 characters or less.
The award-winning title will be a voice work from “G’s Koeken”! It will be released on DLsite.
We are waiting for a story with an attractive heroine ♪

Voice actors Kotori Koiwai and Shiori Izawa who are also judges for the 2nd contest, and Niji no Conquistador Natsuna Yamazaki, who is in charge of the CV of G’s Koeken’s image character Otomaneru, will be broadcast live. !
