Futabasha Releases Elma ASMR Video For Dragon Maid Spin-Off's 100th Chapter
Futabasha released an ASMR video for "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Elma's OL Diary" on September 10, read by Yuki Takada, who voices Elma. The video marks the spin-off's 100th chapter and depicts Elma encouraging a listener.

Why it matters
The tie-in pitches the spin-off's audio identity to the same readers who buy the volumes, which explains why the promotion hangs on a voice actress and a chapter count rather than a screen adaptation.
Volume 12 of the series, drawn by Ayami Kazama from a story by coolkyousinnjya, also went on sale that day.
Yuki Takada records the video as an in-story production: an employee named Mizuka asks Elma to make an ASMR, it becomes a hit internally, and a second installment is requested. In that second part Elma whispers to listeners that they can do their best again tomorrow.
Takada said the recording was her first ASMR and that mishaps during the session were left in. A campaign running alongside the release offers one winner volumes 1 through 12 with her handwritten autograph.
