What do you guys think of the whole having phone call instead of talking to you directly situation here? I've read very often recently that quite a few people enjoy asmr videos where they're not necessarily the center of attention the whole time. I personally love videos like that too, especially when someone's studying or working on something while talking to themselves a bit. This way I don't get distracted by what they're saying and I can focus more on whatever it is I'm working on while watching it. I'd love to know your thoughts on that 🤔
I think it was a really nice touch, personally. I'm pretty flexible about my preferences though, so direct attention or not, I think I'd enjoy it either way. Also, I like to imagine that I'm something with tentacles and at least dog-like intelligence in this video (I wrote this part of the comment only a few minutes into the vid, lol). I love oceanography and marine biology, so I love the whole concept and execution too!
As a marine biologist I can confirm we have unknown species every other Wednesday, but it is normally suckable uppable with a pipette. We also have no AI, we have a fearless lab technician called Terry
Hi I'm gigi and I'm a mermaid!! I have long, silken hair the color of seaweed, and my tail is super long and pretty with lots of colors and frills that look so pretty in the water! I also have long, pretty nails that are blue and green and shimmery!! They match the scales on my face, but even my nails aren't as long as the dozens of pearly whites sticking out from my gaping maw, which looks like a sparkly sandworm's mouth covered in scales!! Do you wanna play mermaids with me?😊
Am I the only one who internally screamed when she said mermaid or siren? Finally, someone!! Their not the same species, even the marine biologists say so!!
When she did the slow blinks at the beginning to "give us an opportunity to attack her" it reminded me of how I treat my neighbour's abomination of a cat whenever I have to feed it, then she said she was doing that because it's what works with cats and just... yes. I feel that.
**Species Report** A humanoid fish creature with unnaturally long limbs and a pastel blue skin-tone that fades into black gloves along the extremities with deep purple tiger-esque stripes. Its "ears" resemble a fish fin with three distinct sections that pull back along its head, though its unknown if they function for hearing as our ears do as of now. The creature sports both skin and scales along its extremely humanoid torso and limbs, and a pair of very large yellow eyes with a turquoise sclarea positioned at an upwards angle. Size estimates are currently 2 to 2.5 meters until a proper measurement can be made. It seems to rely on oxygen from the surface rather than any gills, similar to whales or dolphins. Intelligenence levels are currently unknown, but the creature displays noticeable curiosity and a level of tolerance one would not expect from a typical feral animal which hints at more advanced learning capabilities. It was first spotted out on beaches by tourists, leading me to believe its been displaced from either its family or natural habitat, perhaps both. I hope we can figure out where this creature belongs and return it to its home very soon. [I loved this video! It was really fun writing this up because I was curious what a compilation of all your notes + a little extra flare might look like.]
Maybe it continues on like the mermaid storyline like maybe she finds more of this species or has to release this creature because people find out about it and want it. Idk my midnight inspo is rollingq😂
this is the most original, amazingly well done and put together asmr (movie) video i've ever seen, this is SO fresh. i mean if i had to point out one bad aspect of this video is that it ends. tragic. criminal. praying for a part two 🙏🏻
I really loved the sound effect in the very beginning, where the sounds weren't as "clear" starting at 0:00. It really sounded as if we were underwater and gave me major tingles. I would love a whole video with that sound effect on
"i can't tell if this is the sea creature i have in front of me, or a portrait of you!" ooh i like her she's sassy !! i 💙 this, it's so creative and i'd love a sequel!
There is something about the way you talk that is so incredibly relaxing. Just like rain sounds on a window while you are drinking tea and reading a book. Just really comforting, i love your content so much
"You are so cute" *me immediately thinking about the video of scientist finding a cuddlefish and absolutely losing their minds laughing at it before one says it's cute* Sure....
i saw a woman at the store today who looked just like you. i was trying to figure out who she resembled and your video popped up on my feed right before bed, which hasn’t happened in awhile. and marine biology is my favorite topic! it’s fate!!
I love the tiny bits of story here ❤ Kinda wished she examined the sea creature’s body more. Like a full body exam? Maybe you could do that for a video! :0
I assumed it was some sort of mermaid at first, but I was still stubbornly pretending to be something like Undyne from Undertale. Then it just got better and better. 1. It's blue 2. Long limbs 3. Legs, not a tail 4. Yellow eyes 5. Finned ears None of the rest makes sense but I was still enjoying my half-asleep RP. I'm leaving this comment at 3 a.m. in my excitement and it probably makes no sense, but thanks anyway, into the ASMR favorites Playlist it goes 👍
I drew what I thought of when she was talking about the "3 ears" especially, and I came up with something like a bioluminescent anthropromorphic Axolotl! His name is Goomï! :>
10/10 asmr, totally invested in the eventual bond between biologist and the creature and the subtext of the romantic tension between biologist and mariana
Ooo an underwater video 😄.. I always find underwater ambience incredibly relaxing. The dialogue & acting is top notch, along with the backdrop. Your greenscreen editing skills have improved so much over the years
We like how she doesn't understand what water level we live in/at. Like we could live by reefs, shallow areas, somewhat deep areas, or like *deep* and dark. Like we could have a body that looks frail but we live in a really pressurised level or an armoured body in a reef area or the opposite. We could be bright coloured and live in the dark, dark coloured and live in light areas or neutral. The imaginative exploration
Yay! Love your content Ani, I've been watching that Egyptian Spa ASMR from days since I discovered it, the Greek one too! Maybe you could do more videos like that with the accent? its amazing, specially when you speak about the history talking in the native language. I love it all! Will be watching this one later too :)
Aeni, you are the absolute best - i found your channel through Skyrim, i am not even into asmr, and yet your content is absolutely captivating, relaxing... Since you mentioned recently you were busy with your thesis.. i am actually a PhD student about to defend soon! And your channel helps me push through the last bit❤
the biologist/scientist finds new strange discoveries paired with a side narrative of long-distance lesbian subtext gives me enormous Slime Rancher nostalgia, and I adore it 10/10
i would really love if you made a no talking or minimal whispering/unintelligible talking in the future like this where you're working or doing something and we're kind of in the background. you have some videos like that where there's sections of you focusing on something and i really adore those moments. i forget which video it was but there was one where you read a book while we were sleeping and it's one of my favorites
You better turn this into a series, This is top notch ASMR. Plus, a strange new sea creature gets taken in by a sweet and cute marine biologist. Deserves a chef’s kiss 💜
I love love love this role play, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a role play this chill and calming, you should def make more. Idk what their called, I would describe it as an occupation role play, I guess I’ve seen doctor role play or like dentist but I love how it brought a new unique job into the mix❤❤❤
After so many years of watching and listerning to roleplay ASMR videos, I've somehow grown to be more sensitive and picky with sounds. I've only come across your channel to today and this is the third one I'm watching now. I'm listening while working on a document and I find your voice to be very relaxing. Not the kind that would make me go to sleep and not the kind that would distract me from reading a document. It's been a while since I listened to a very chatty roleplay video - I avoid them these days haha. And the sounds are so gentle. I like your videos so much. Subscribed.
Your acting is so natural. It feels like you’re actually speaking to another person on call. I got completely lost in this story, not many asmr videos do that for Me. I’m completely mezmorized this is a masterclass in asmr and in general cinema making
Omg I love this type of ASMR!!! I wonder what form of communication they can develop? Maybe the creature is really intelligent and picks up and understands what they say to an extent, but can’t really speak like humans cause idk different vocal chords. Omg as a Biology nerd this would be very fun to figure out!!
I was looking at sharks and searched marine biologist and this came up, I’m a fan of ASMR and I looked at your channel and really liked your videos, keep up the good work and I wanted to say that you’re so pretty and angelic 😊
I’m normally not a huge fan or her videos due to my not being into magic, mythology and things similar to that or in that realm, but I do enjoy her when she makes videos I find interesting which this is one of. Also I think it’s the first ever video that’s been a “obsessed with you video” that I didn’t hate. The phone call idea was genius and actually made me enjoy it. I wish there more videos of us being, like a quiet observer. Living lurkers.
could we have a part 2 of this? I really loved this ASMR storyline thing whatever you wanna call it- I feel like this could be a really cool series! Love your vids 🩵💙
its funny, im usually kind of offput by asmr where the character is flirting with the viewer, but this video has taught me that i could listen to a character flirt with a third party for HOURS. these two scientists are so cute!!! you made such a good dynamic for them even though one character was completely offscreen, thats so impressive!
i’ve been watching asmr for years and it’s getting hard to get tingles and fall asleep from asmr but this videooooo soooo good. restored my faith in the asmr community
Ngl , i was pretending like I 'm a very much smaller version of a humanoid mythical sea dragon , with shades of blue and purple all across my body , really long tail , and big fins that get mistaken for wings , glowing little spike in the fins , glowing eyes and glowing spots all over , but at the same time I look almost translucent on some parts like end of my tail , that also loves sea bunnies and is constantly looking around and curious , also squeeks as a way of speaking / communicating . Idk , but i love it
Watching this, my Writer's imagination kicked in. As usual it goes to a very dark place. Why is this new species, this man-sized creature so calm and so trusting? As our Marine Biologist performs a few basic, non-invasive tests to see what more she can learn about the creature; horrified realization hits her like a freight train after checking the results. _It's a baby._ It liked being gently massaged and cleaned off. All babies do. It's why it was so calm. But unfortunately, that means Mama is out there. And she's desperate to re-unite with her little one. Being in frantic mom-mode, she'll destroy anything and anyone who stands in her way! After a quick discussion with Glados, based on the baby creature's size and proportions, it's estimated that these things as an adult grow to be about the size of a Blue Whale. The largest creature currently known to exist on Earth. What's that sound? Is that mama honing in on her baby's location? Oh, no.......
