Hey there, been a while! It's been a bit over 3 years since my original manga collection video and I think it has doubled since then, so I figured this could be a good one to make. Hope you enjoy!

What is ASMR: • What is ASMR? (ASMR EX...
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (non-scientific name). It is described as a pleasurable tingling sensation that can be felt on the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering and personal attention.
A common example of something that "triggers" people's ASMR a lot is visits to the hairdresser. The hairdresser's attention being fully on you, while they touch your hair, with the sound of scissors going around your head... do you find those experience relaxing? If so, you can probably experience ASMR. If not, you probably still can, you just have to find what triggers you.
My videos are meant to share with you my passions for Japanese things (like anime, manga, the japanese language, and more), video games, etc, while also hopefully relaxing you and "triggering" your ASMR.

Everything you said with Tokyo Ghoul is everything I am saying, man such a good series absolute masterpiece.

[@PatChatASMR]

Almost 2 years later: I now have over 400 volumes of manga lmao. I really should make an update huh

[@conkersuprfan]

that's amazing! you actually read them all of just collect them? (have known people that do the latter for things they like but haven't used them)

[@PatChatASMR]

@@conkersuprfan That's a bit of a tough one to answer; I am buying them in japanese and have read a bit over 150 of them; but most of them I have either already read in english in the past (up to a certain point) or at least watched the anime 1-3x and dont necessarily intend on reading them from the beginning (just from where the anime left off) So long story short: I dont JUST collect them; but I definitely haven't read them all haha. Once I get faster at reading japanese though I plan on speeding through a lot of them.

[@conorshiny]

Make an updated video pleaseee

[@ASMRGamingNews]

Relaxing ASMR ^_^

[@Charu0]

ASMR Gaming News You !

[@TheASMRCircus]

Yeaaaaay to a new video. :D

[@justinmicheletti5898]

The ASMR Circus yo

[@1MinuteGaming]

It's good to see a new video from you :)

[@dieeeg]

First video of the year i hope you would make more please

[@PatChatASMR]

Damn youre right, pretty late for a first video haha. I intend to make more, yes!

[@TheBushey]

Oh how I’ve missed you ❤️

[@PatChatASMR]

Unlike what I said in the video, I just counted how many volumes I have and it is 128! If someone feels like going back to my original video to count how many I had at the time, please come back here and let me know how many haha I'd be curious to know! EDIT: Fuck it, I went back and counted and I had 63, so I couldn't have been closer with my guess of having double! haha

[@dieeeg]

Hi

[@dieeeg]

I'm your fan did you like jojo's bizarre adventure?

[@PatChatASMR]

Hey I have not watched nor read Jojo's, but I definitely intend to! Looks interesting

[@PatChatASMR]

I think I'm due for an update on this, I have close to 400 volumes now lmao

[@justinmicheletti5898]

Please update I have a growing manga collection as well and I’m about 50 volumes deep so far

[@Darian-mk1bw]

The dragonball series is the only manga I have got into. I love it so much. Just bought into demon slayer now too

[@PatChatASMR]

Nice! Definitely wanna get both of these eventually. While a lot of people have childhood memories of watching DBZ, I personally never did. Instead I was reading the manga as I had seen it at the library, and only found out about it being popular (and anime in general) a decade later haha. But point is, I definitely have some nostalgia over it and would like to own it. And demon slayer well S1 was good so thats all the reason I need haha!

[@thesagaofblitz]

Hope you make another one of these

[@PatChatASMR]

I will at some point! Because of covid restrictions over here people are always home but once that lifts and I can get some quiet time, I'll get around to it! I'm just about to hit 500 volumes so that'll be a perfect occasion to make a video haha

[@user-mx5dq7tw2r]

I wish the Tokyo ghoul anime adaptation was better. it was good but a lot of plot holes that are explained in the manga (I also wish it was just as gory as the manga)

[@PatChatASMR]

I love the Tokyo Ghoul anime... because it got me interested enough to check out the manga! lol

[@user-mx5dq7tw2r]

@@PatChatASMR the anime was good, especially the music and characters. it's just the plot holes were annoying cause you won't understand it unless you read the manga or research ykwim? still love it tho, def top 10

[@phillipebolduc6947]

Nice u.u 👌

[@akemigirl]

So have you been loving the recent shingeki no kyojin chapters too? ^^

[@PatChatASMR]

I have no idea, I'm not up to date on anything haha. Would be kind of pointless to spend time reading them in english when I can use them as motivation; can't catch up to them until I can read them in japanese ;) I am sure I will like them, though!

[@akemigirl]

TheJapanCodeASMR Ah, sorry. I thought you were because you were talking about spoilers on the covers haha. And good luck with learning! I’m sure you will enjoy them, imo the last few chapters have been some of the best in the entire series. :P

[@PatChatASMR]

I have read up until chapter 92 so I do know of the direction the series went and I thought it was interesting haha, that's all I will say :p Thanks!

[@MrTenBot]

I thought u were gonna go through a bookshelf

[@PatChatASMR]

haha I just didn't know how else to show all my manga in the thumbnail... plus my floor is very squeaky so it would be hard to stand by the bookshelf and do that

[@MrTenBot]

Yeah I was hoping to see the thumbnail in the video and then I remembered that you actually did make a room tour video back a while ago. Anyway glad to see another manga collection video. I've watched the two previous ones many times since I don't know any other relevant asmr channels

[@PatChatASMR]

I've actually moved out on my own since then so I should make a new one; it looks very different haha. Thanks, glad you enjoyed! I will make sure to keep making videos on manga :)

[@MrTenBot]

I look forward to it ^^ For some reason I'm fond of watching those room tour/collection/unboxing videos

[@PatChatASMR]

Haha me too, I used to watch them before knowing asmr was a thing

[@diogopita4656]

U portuguese ??

[@PatChatASMR]

Nope, (french) Canadian

[@lbruglyboy7959]

I came here to find recommendations and all he showed was mainstream 98% of the time 😭

[@PatChatASMR]

I never said anywhere that these were gonna be niche series that no one knows about lol

[@lbruglyboy7959]

@@PatChatASMR lol yea I know I was just hoping I'd get some of the juicy stuff ya know 😂

[@PatChatASMR]

@@lbruglyboy7959 well what sort of series are you looking for? I now have 450+ volumes and obviously I know waaaaay more series than what I own haha, so maybe I can give some anyways

[@lbruglyboy7959]

@@PatChatASMR well I've really been trying to find a good horror manga or good psychological manga like liar game. But a good horror manga is what I'm really in the mood for rn

[@PatChatASMR]

@@lbruglyboy7959 I assume you've read most / all of Junji Ito's series then? If not, of course, check those out! Other than that, I've enjoyed (and own) Ibitsu, I know a decent amount of people dont like it but as a mostly mindless slasher I thought it was a great read. Havent read much (if any) horror outside of those though. Dont like horror in any other media than manga so safe to say I'm not the biggest fan haha. Love dark series though like Berserk, Tokyo Ghoul, Attack on Titan, Dorohedoro, Claymore, stuff like that, and while they're tagged as horror on sites like Anilist, that's not really what people are talking about when talking about horror right? lol

[@golden6529]

I hate the swallowing sound in asmr
