The main attraction of these earbuds certainly lies in the exclusive ASMR feature created specifically for the collaboration between Final and GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE. The character chosen as the centerpiece of this collaboration is Anis: Star idol version, one of the popular characters known for her relaxed and cheerful personality.
According to information shared by the developers, users will experience what is referred to as "intense immersion" in audio. Although complete details regarding this feature are still under wraps, the developers have confirmed that they have recorded various special voice lines that are only available in this collaborative product.
Thanks to this feature, users can enjoy a more personal audio experience compared to regular earbuds. It's no wonder that many NIKKE fans are immediately curious about the sensation of listening to Anis' voice through this device.

In addition to ASMR mode, these earbuds also come with exclusive voice guidance features. When users connect the device, change settings, increase volume, or access certain functions, Anis's voice will provide immediate feedback.
This simple feature makes the user experience feel more alive. For fans of the character, the presence of voice guidance certainly adds value, making interaction with the device more enjoyable.
Not only that, these special edition ZE500 earbuds also have a battery life of up to about 18 hours when used with the charging case. With that duration, users can enjoy music, podcasts, or the voice lines of their favorite characters for almost the entire day.

This collaborative product not only relies on audio features but also showcases a design specifically made for collectors. The earbuds come in a yellow color that is identical to the character Anis, as well as special packaging featuring exclusive illustrations of the character.
For many anime and gacha game fans, exclusive packaging like this often serves as a compelling reason to purchase a product. Moreover, official collaborations like this are usually produced in limited quantities and hold significant collectible value.
The special edition Anis: Star earbuds are priced at around 70 US dollars or equivalent to Rp1.2 million. Pre-orders have opened, and shipping is scheduled to begin at the end of November 2026. With a combination of collector's design, ASMR features, and exclusive voice guidance, this product has the potential to become one of the most unique anime merchandise of the year.
