Notes

• The HP loss is NOT counted as damage or hits, and will not trigger skills or items with such conditions.
• The HP loss continues while under the effects of Mother Nature, but does not seem to function during Become Beeg.
• As of Version 0.3.1656470021, if both Injection Type Asacoco and the Body Pillow are equipped, the Asacoco will reduce your shield before your HP. It is unknown whether this is intended behavior or not.
• A max rank Kusogaki Shackles will completely negate this item's HP loss.

Tips

• Most effective on characters who can offset the HP loss via high healing capability, namely Ceres Fauna, IRyS, Tokino Sora, Yozora Mel and Yuzuki Choco especially when also equipped with Full Meal.
• Body Pillow and Nurse's Horn can be used to mitigate the negative effects of this item. The shield from Body Pillow will be drained first while Nurse's Horn can restore lost health. Using both of these items results in a safer runs.
• On Hardcore Mode, the HP loss becomes irrelevant due to the player only having 1 HP maximum, making this item a straight buff in that mode.

Trivia

• The item is a reference to former hololive member Kiryu Coco:
  • Asacoco (あさココ, lit. Morning Coco) is a series of skits created by former talent Kiryu Coco. The skits mimic those of a morning news show where Coco would pick up on funny moments from the streams of Hololive members from previous days. The show also features various fake ads and special segments by other Gen 4 members.
    • Asacoco products originated from one of those ads where Coco would sell Asacoco in drug form so that viewers could inject the show directly into themselves in case they miss the stream.
    • Injection Type, Breath-In Type and Drink Type Asacoco are the first Asacoco products to be created by Coco. Injection type was featured injected into an IV bag likely as not to overtly show drug use.
    • List of Asacoco products currently in the game also includes Plug Type Asacoco and Breathe-In Type Asacoco.
    • Some Asacoco products currently not included in the game includes,
      • Drink Type Asacoco, Pill Type Asacoco, Patch Type Asacoco, Spread Type Asacoco, Drop Type Asacoco, Pacifier Type Asacoco, Hook Type Asacoco, Weed Type Asacoco, Snack Type Asacoco, Sprinkle Type Asacoco, Spray Type Asacoco, Mist Type Asacoco, Recive Type Asacoco and Drink Type Anti-Asacoco.
• As of Version 0.4, this item grants the single highest ATK bonus in the game, being 80% at max rank. This is the equivalent of 10 ATK stat-ups in only 3 levels.
