i agree with the other commenters about disliking the AI images! i think it would really, really help if you replaced them with stills from the 2004 ghibli film, or maybe even just one static image from the movie (like the title image) the whole way through to make it easier on you. the AI images feel uncanny and just give me the ick, which is super unfortunate because i love your voice and want so badly to enjoy this video to the fullest, but the AI is a bit of a barrier and throws me off quite a bit :(
This is absolute art! Thank you! Howl’s moving castle is one of my absolute favorite books and movies! Please please continue reading it for us in future videos. Instant new subscriber ❤️
This channel has become my go-to for winding down at night. Your soothing stories and calming narration help me fall asleep so peacefully. I can't wait to listen to this later-thank you for creating such a relaxing space for us! 🌙✨
Was looking for someone to cover this story for ages! Love it lots, your voice was perfect. hope you'll continue this one. Thank u for sharing ur work =]
I have been lying in bed not able to sleep when I found this video. Your voice is so calming and the way you read is captivating. Liked and subbed. I'll have to check out the rest of your book readings in the coming nights ❤
Everyone who is complaining about the ai images are missing the point of bedtime stories. Close your eyes and play images in your head! I love this video ❤
The concept of bedtime stories isn't more important than addressing the unethical usage of artists' works. The complaints are reasonable. That said, I absolutely love this channel's narration. So relaxing, and definitely going to help people. It's the appreciation I have for this channel's content that makes me want to see it do better. Nothing wrong with feedback like that.
What a fascinating start to a magical journey! The story of Sophie, transformed by the Witch of the Waste, is full of adventure and mystery, and I love how the tale weaves together Sophie’s family dynamics and her unexpected encounter with the enigmatic Wizard Howl. 🧙♂✨ It’s a great reminder of how even ordinary beginnings can lead to extraordinary adventures. How do you think Sophie’s new journey will unfold
I don't really care too much about the video part as I have premium and just turn the screen off on my phone. But I love this reading of the book, I have it on Audible but the voice is shrill and not good for falling asleep to. This one on the other hand is soothing and perfect for falling asleep to!
So nice to see Howl's as a sleep story! I wonder if it would be possible to upload versions without the background music? Or even quieter music? I find it a little distracting x
I really love your narration. Your voice is beautifully calming. I just wish you didn't use AI for the images. It felt kind of icky to see them play out while I tried to pay attention and listen to the story. Everything else was great. Just the ai was not fun to look at. :(
This is a great way to work with patrons, once you start Patreon. Spotify allows you to upload Patron content that is locked to everyone who isn't one of your Patreon Supporters. As well, it is a great option for those of us requesting recordings without background music or sounds. Uploading the narration only versions to Spotify is a great compromise that doesn't affect your UA-cam algorithm. 💚💜💚
@SleepySpark I love this but every time I fall asleep an ad wakes me up. Could you adjust the settings so ads are only in the beginning and end, please?
I love this but unfortunately that also means I won’t be able to fall asleep because I just want to know how the story continues. I’ve seen the movie but the book is different I hear so, nosy as I am, I can’t sleep as long as I don’t know what’s going to happen. Maybe I can listen to this during the day when taking a break somehow haha
I personally don't like rain or water sounds so I'm quite happy that they are a bit hidden in the other sounds so I can imagine that it's maybe wind or something else

It may be a copyright issue
Great ideas, I’ll keep them in mind for future videos. Thanks!
@@SleepySparkbut you won’t do it
A great story! One of the few times the movie was very different from the book but is still loved. Even the author loved the Ghibli version
Ghibli really captured the heart of the story in their own unique way!
@@KarrokickShe didn’t. Not sure what you saw or read to think that
@@Karrokickno that was Ursula (the lady who wrote the Earthsea stories) who hated their interpretation of her stories.
I've followed this story before and the beats are super pretty here. Your voice is amazing, literally so gentle like an angel
That's amazing to hear, so happy you enjoyed it ❤️

❤❤❤❤ OMG... This is my favorite movie of all times.... ❤❤❤❤

If you find it easier to drift off without background music, I'll try to create different versions for you ❤️
@@SleepySpark That would be wonderful!
Really good ❤
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Wait, I’m sad. I wanted to hear you read the whole book 😢❤
I’m glad you liked it, there's a Part 2 where the adventure continues 🥰❤️
please read don quixote! I've been searching for a ASMR audiobook for this story for a while now. your voice is so soothing.
Love this
❤️🥰
I really love your narration. Your voice is beautifully calming.
I just wish you didn't use AI for the images. It felt kind of icky to see them play out while I tried to pay attention and listen to the story.
Everything else was great. Just the ai was not fun to look at. :(
Got to level up my image skills ❤️
I LOVE the images!
sua voz é linda e a escolha do livro foi perfeita!
❤❤❤
Who cares about the images when we are supposed to be sleeping 😅
Will you consider uploading your podcasts on Spotify?
If more people are interested, I'll consider it❤️

are you going to continue the whole bokk?
I'm working on it. Stay tuned 😊
Get out of town! This is amazing
Thanks! I barely made it out of bed 😴❤️
Amazing, will you please upload an Alice in wonderland video
Part 2!!
Part 2 is out now! ❤️
50:47
I'm leaving this comment as a bookmark of sorts so I can come back to the spot I left at later
Haha brilliant! ❤️
@SleepySpark I love this but every time I fall asleep an ad wakes me up. Could you adjust the settings so ads are only in the beginning and end, please?
No ads if you have youtube premium or app with an ad blocker. I hope this can help you :)
What about the rest of the story? Will you upload a new video for part 2?
Part 2 is brewing in the castle❤

Haha!
the only way this could be more perfect is if it didnt have music, only rainsounds 💗
Noted ❤️ The castle band went a little overboard 😂
I personally don't like rain or water sounds so I'm quite happy that they are a bit hidden in the other sounds so I can imagine that it's maybe wind or something else
Wow 1 min in and then an ad lol
Would you consider posting this without the music? 🙏🏼
I guess the castle band went a little overboard 😂 I'll consider it ❤️
Hate the ai, but love the rest
😅❤️
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the support! That means a lot ❤️
