BABYMETAL is a Japanese group created in 2010, its musical genre is “Kawaii Metal” and is characterized by fusing metal rock with other genres such as J-pop, Techno, alternative rock, etc.

Nobody ever seems to notice that they are dancing on an elevated platform that is moving in two dimensions while they dance- and they are making it look like nothing! I admit, there's a lot going on in this video, but them making this all look so easy is evidence of how hard they work. Saw them in Dallas last year, and they were just as amazing as I expected.

That man is F.HERO, a famous rapper who has great influence in the Thai rapper industry.❤

Good reaction. Welcome to the crazy universe of BabyMetal. BabyMetal is an atypical heavy metal group, because they are idols. In Japan, idols are often paired with pop music (Jpop), and Babymetal was actually a subgroup of a larger idol group called Sakura Gakuin. Sakura was made up of girls between 10 and 15 years old dedicated to Jpop. When SuMetal (the singer) started she was 12 years old and MoaMetal/YuiMetal (the backup singers) were only 10 years old. Sakura represented the Japanese high school and the girls were distributed in clubs (traditional Japanese extracurricular activities such as cooking, swimming, basketball, sewing, etc.). One of the producers, a lover of heavy metal, saw that Su's singing could perfectly be used in metal and asked permission from the Mother House (Amuse) to create the heavy music club, proposing an experiment in fusion between metal and the pop. Nobody, as they themselves have confessed, had much hope for its outcome, but they gave it the green light and thus BabyMetal, Sakura Gakuin's heavy music club, was born. The first songs were intended for girls between 10 and 15 years old, who were Sakura's target audience. However, their quality and the fusion between pop and metal attracted attention beyond this audience and they began to frequent their metal concerts... a shocking audience of children and metalheads. And it worked, it worked so well that they began to support groups like Metallica, Red Hot, BMTH or Lady Gaga, I seem to remember, on their tours in Japan. And the Red Hot singer commented that he was impressed to realize that part of the public came to see them, not them. And so the base of BabyMetal fans grew. Sakura was a group in which, upon turning 15, the members had to leave (to pursue their careers elsewhere) and the producer (KobaMetal) requested permission again to create BabyMetal as an independent group. Success was already beginning to become a reality in Asia, so they authorized it, although Moa and Yui (they were still 13 years old) would also continue to be part of other Sakura clubs (I don't know when the poor girls studied, but they did). In 2014 a milestone would arrive in the group's history. They were already an established metal group in Asia that sold out concerts, but they had not yet made the leap to the West. In that year his song "Gimme Chocolate" rose to fame on KZfaq (currently 182M views) and attracted the attention of the producers of the Sonisphere festival. KobaMetal had doubts about taking the step, since their musical proposal (Kawaii Metal or Cute Metal, a genre of which they are considered creators) might not be accepted in the West and the metalheads who went to the Sonisphere had a reputation for saying goodbye to very bad manners to the artists they didn't like (even with bottles full of urine), but they were offered to go to one of the secondary stages (about 5000 spectators) and they ended up accepting. But the success of BabyMetal on KZfaq and the fact that all the concerts they were going to give in Europe were sold out in a few days, convinced the producers to take them to the main stage, where they would share with groups like Metallica, for example. How many girls (they were between 16 and 14 years old at that time) were "terrified" before going out, and they didn't know what scared them more: that they wouldn't understand their music and they would have to run away or that when they went out on stage it would be empty. . But the story was very different, not only was it not empty, but more than 50,000 metalheads, an estimated 95% of whom had never heard of them, finished their fifth and last song chanting "another one, another one." And that's how they achieved popularity in the West as well. They currently have 4 albums on the market: -Babymetal (2013): Their first album and the most childish of all, since they were between 15-13 years old when it came out and had energetic, positive music that left a smile on their faces. -Metal Resistence (2016): an album that, without losing the essence of the first, shows more mature music, going from childhood to adolescence. Songs like Karate were a large part of his presentation in the West. -Metal Galaxy (2018): a turning point in its style. Without abandoning their energy, they turned their attention to new forms of metal fusion (hip-hop, dance music, Hindu music or European folklore, among others), projecting a much more mature music in keeping with their age, which was already around 21 years old. of Su and the 18 of Moa (unfortunately Yui left the group due to health problems). Pa Pa Ya is from this album. And now in 2023 they have just released their new album "The Other One", which is, again, totally different from what they have done until now (one of the hallmarks of BabyMetal is that their songs are usually very different some from others (although they are all positive adrenaline releases). Currently BabyMetal is considered the most important Heavy Metal group in Japan (I'm not saying the best, that's for everyone to decide) and the most influential in history in the West (it has reached levels that no other Japanese heavy group has reached before). ). The journey through the Babymetal galaxy may be long, but it is certainly entertaining and with a few songs it drags you with a smile into the fox hole

Great reaction, thanks and welcome to BABYMETAL. This music video has the studio recording over the visuals from a concert called BABYMETAL Awakens - The Sun also rises (day 2) held at Yokohama Arena in late June 2019 with a sold out crowd of about 17K people (that's the arena's nominal capacity). Funnily enough their next two concerts will be held right there. 😁 "PA PA YA!" is a summer festival fun song about a Thai spicy green salad and it never fails to put one in a good mood when it's needed. They are very diverse musically as they like to mix any music genre with metal. So, always expect the unexpected. Until next time! 🤘🦊

The girls do this dancing for the entire show. Every song. Ive seen more than a few American musicians are who are just amazed. These little girls probably have the stamina to beat your ass. They may not have power but they will be running circles around you for an hour.

I love babymetal. They absolutely have been the best performing band I have seen in concert. I will be going again, they put on a excellent show and know how to play the crowd. They are the one band I recommend seeing in concert It's an absolute blast to see them live.

You 100% will not regret diving into their discography. Incredibly talented, hard working group. Also extremely entertaining lol

YES!!! BABYMETAL are just a phenomenal group and they just bring so much joy and fun. You can pick virtually any song of theirs and never be disappointed! I'm sure you'll get plenty of song suggestions but my personal picks would be the Trilogy of Lights songs (Starlight, Shine and Arkadia)!

Unexpected. I got hooked from their "Give me Chocolate". But you should also listen to their songs from the First Take. Their voices sound heavenly there

BABYMETAL has been active for 13 years, but even SU-METAL, the oldest member of the group, is only 26 years old. Their album METAL GALAXY, which includes this song, became the first Asian artist to reach No. 1 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums. The song features Thai rapper F. Hero, and BABYMETAL has also previously collaborated with BRING ME THE HORIZON, Arch Enemy, TPolyphia's im Henson and Scott LePage, Sabaton's JOAKIM BRODEN, Tom Morello, and Lil Uzi Vert. BABYMETAL is very different from any other band; there is an excitement that can only be experienced with BABYMETAL.

I saw them in Chicago a couple of months ago. It was incredible!

13 years now (from about 11 & 13 years old?) and one of the best LIVE bands in that time - with their own unique genre - always guaranteed to surprise - more pls!

You can't go too wrong with any live Babymetal performance. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

It is a bout a spicy papaya salad, you know, life is better with the sweet and spice mashed together. But it's about a summer street festival too, where you sing and dance, it's a metaphor for life. Sing, Dance, take the sweet and spice and enjoy life.

I saw them live back in September and it was one of the craziest shows ever. They were touring with Dethklok.

Officially, BABYMETAL is just the three ladies, and they are from Japan. Their backing band is all male. They actually have two backing bands - the Eastern kami band (Japanese), which backs them in Asia and some European shows, and the Western kami band (American), which backs them in the Americas and some European shows. BABYMETAL is HUGE! They are Japan's biggest musical export since X-Japan in the 80s. They started out in 2010, when lead singer Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto) was just 12 years old, and then-backups Moametal (Moa Kikuchi) and Yui-metal (Yui Mizuno) were 11. Yui left in 2018 due to health reasons, and her spot was taken by a rotating trio of dancers called the Avengers (Avenger Kano Fujihara is the Avenger in this video) from 2018 to 2023. In early 2023, one of the Avengers Momoko Okazaki (now Momo-metal) was elevated to full member status, and they are once again an official trio. They completed a US Tour co-headlining with Dethklok in 2023 (I caught the show in St. Louis; I also saw the original trio in Chicago back in 2016). They have done collabs with several international superstars. Just in 2023, they did collabs with Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine) and Lil' Uzi Vert. Previously, they did collabs with Bring Me the Horizon, Tim Henson and Scott LaPage (Polyphia), Alyssa White-Gluz (Arch Enemy), Joachim Broden (Sabaton), Dragonforce, and appeared in a video with Corey Taylor (Slipknot). The guest rapper in this video is F. Hero, one of the biggest rappers in Thailand. The song Pa-Pa-Ya does make reference to the papaya fruit and salad, but it more broadly refers to the popularity of summer festivals, where those dishes are symbolic of summer fun.

Babymetal is the most bang for your buck shows you’ll ever see… never lazy choreo never lazy musicianship

Little late to this reaction but love it. Babymetal has some of the most astonishing crowd reactions and interactions I've ever seen in any concert. They perform for tens of thousands at peak.

honestly seeing this song live is an amazing feeling

There is a LOT to unpack when it comes to Baby Metal. I know that the commenters will fill you in admirably, so all I am going to say is that your next reaction should be to the MV of BxMxC, an amazing song and an amazing performance by BM. Once you see the video you will get it. After that, or do a doubleheader reaction to both, react to the live version of BxMxC and you will see exactly what I mean. I think you will be quite impressed.

Su-metal from Babymetal can spit some very good bars. Check out the live version of Babymetal BxMxC (usually just called BMC)

Oh hell yeah! This one was 🔥! Glad you found them! I hope you give more of their music a listen. They are crazy!

Layedbak finally discover Babymetal. I'm waiting for this for a long time. This is a small part of what this band can do. Next reaction "Road of resistance - live in Japan"

everything these guys and girls do is awesome. They have larger crowds than this. Mindblowing shows.

Very happy you didn't diss it because it's different, check out more of their music!

I love people being introduced to babymetal, its so refreshing as it reminds me of my reaction. 🤘🦊

Got to see them in October in SLC, one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to!

Saw them live and the mix of people in the crowd was amazing, bunch of little girls and some huge bearded metal dudes, was one of the funnest gigs I ever went to

One of the best concerts I've ever er been to. They go so hard it's astounding.

Huge respect for you going to this reaction, Babymetal be flaming up this firesquad bro!!!

One of the few shows I've seen live and immediately wanted to go see again. Most concerts are simple bucket list items for me, but Babymetal is unreal live.

I was lucky enough to see them live a few months back. they are fantastic performers

"Who are they?" Babymetal are Japan's #1 International Group!! This song is from their 3rd Album "Metal Galaxy" that hit #1 in the USA on Billboards "Top Rock Album" chart in 2019 and these Ladies have been turning the Metal World on its Ear for more than a Decade!! More Babymetal Always!! Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!

Been a massive babymetal fan for a couple years now man and they are so fun. Just saw them live in 2023 and man it was cool

You must definitely react to their BxMxC song! This is their the most rap song combined with really heavy metal. You will definitely love it!

idk why but their dancing make me so happy and gets me fired up....Props the dance coordinator.

Welcome to the Fox Hole. Babymetal has been around for 13 years now. They started as a subgroup of the japanese idol band Sakura Gakuin, as the Heavy Club (Sakura Gakuin was themed around school). They were 12, 11 and 11 when they started, and are now 26, 24 and 20 (one member changed). They are Su-Metal (26, lead singer and lyrics writer for the fourth album), Moametal (24, screaming and dancing) and Momometal (20, screaming and dancing) who replaced Yuimetal (24, screaming and dancing). They are VERY popular. Their first album got to number two in Bilboard Japan and toped the iTunes Metal in Germany. In 2016, they were the highest japanese band of history in the UK's Official Chart thanks to their second album and in 2019 they became the first ever asian act to top the Bilboard Rock Albums chart thanks to their third album. If you decide to continue reacting to Babymetal, I would suggest to check out how they started by watching their very first song: "Doki Doki Morning".

Oh....boy...have I been WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!! ❤❤❤

It's always fun seeing some ones reaction to BabyMetal for the first time. Those women are pure energy.

Babymetal ALWAYS goes this hard. You're in for a treat. Definitely check out the new live video they did with Bring Me The Horizon! It's so good!

One of life's little pleasures as a Babymetal fan is getting to share one someone's first experience of Babymetal. Babymetal has been around since '10 or '12, sorry I've just forgotten. They have a pretty incredible history and should you chose to react to some more of their videos you'll undoubtably see some epic performances in front of huge crowds when they were literally just young teenagers. Obviously they are still going strong now. To me this song is just an epic summer party song and I don't get too hung up on the food stuff. You did a great job with this reaction. Comments, engagement, great vibes. It was fun to watch and as Babymetal tend to leave people feeling good I'd personally love to see you do some more reactions. A personal favorite is the 2023, performance of Monochrome at the PIA Arena in Japan. You got my sub friend and I look forward to future reactions. Monochrome: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rqeKmKWeldWbeqM.html

BabyMetal began 2010 there were Suzuka Nakamoto age 12 Moa Kikuchi and Yui Mizuno. Both Moa and Yui were 11 years old All three girls were friends and classmates who attended an idol group (Sakura Gakuin) founded in 2010 by Amuse Talent Agency for girls 10 to 15. Themed around school life (they attended regular school as well) the girls would learn and train at vocals, dancing, public speaking and etiquette, etc., graduate at age 15 and then move onto whatever entertainment path they chose or that suited their talents. Key Kobayashi was a music producer for Amuse and heard Suzuka sing at age 9 and was impressed with her strong vocals and stage presence. Kobayashi was a fan of heavy metal but believed that the genre had become stale and tired (especially in Japan) with metal bands getting old Kobayashi believed the genre needed to be reborn (BabyMetal means the birth of a new metal genre). Kobayashi felt that Suzuka had the ability to front a metal band and that her vocals and presence could withstand the metal guitars and drums. The fusion of Jpop and Metal began. He placed Moa and Yui as backup singers/dancers and a phenomenon was about to result. At first Amuse showed little interest and the girls had financing mainly from Kobayashi. They performed at strip malls and small venues using clothes borrowed from friends and family. No money for a real band they had friends dressed in homemade skeleton costumes pretending to play instruments to a backtrack. They became a sensation (these young ladies paid their dues). Amuse saw the potential and in 2012 hired the best session musicians Japan had to offer (The Kami Band) who tours with them today (now includes world class musicians from the USA for tours outside of Asia). If you choose to explore more of BabyMetal I suggest reacting to LIVE performance videos as this is where they shine. They have over 60 LIVE songs/performances and each one is different. They are fearless exploring many genres and have the respect of the legends of Metal such as Metallica, Slipknot, Rob Zombie, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Judas Priest and more. Avoid Glastonbury LIVE performances as the sound production by the BBC (who was in charge of that festival did a terrible job - mics not turned on, incorrect volume levels, etc.) Suggest reacting to these HQ Pro Shot videos of LIVE performances for a start.

Their new album in my opinion that released March 24 is amazing with so many different styles. Good luck and hope to see you again.

Great reaction! I'd love to see more BM reviews from you!

Dope

oh boy have you opened a can of wonderful music, also see Band Maid, Lovebites, Trident, and a dozen more all female bands from Japan

Nice! Welcome to Babymetal, glad you enjoyed this one. Babymetal are 13 year veterans of the show biz, who started out in 2010 at the age of 12/11. They are an absolute powerhouse and an amazing live performance act, with 9 years of world tours, 60+ songs, and 4 studio albums under their belts. Known for fusing j-pop and heavy metal, these gals are absolutely amazing. I hope you get more Patreon requests for Banymetal! If you’re open to comment suggestions: 1): Road of Resistance (Official Live): This will give you a solid idea of what Babymetal is all about on the metal side. 2). BxMxC (Budokan 2021): Heavy AF rap metal. 3). Metali (Official MV): Ft. Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, this is their newest single from Aug 2023, and a fun festival song. 🤘🦊

Just saw them recently. They were opened by Dethklok the live band based off the Metalocalypse cartoon. Fantastic concert. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs too. Was great seeing it played live.

Welcome to the Foxhole! 🤘🦊🤘 Most of the truly important information has been or will be given in other comments, so I like to give the fun titles and nicknames given by The ONE (Babymetal’s Fan-base) as well as other (un)important information. BABYMETAL started as an experimental sub-unit of the larger JPop/JRock group Sakura Gakuin. Suzuka Nakamoto\Su-Metal (Vocals and Dance): Angel of Song, Queen Su, Queen of Kawaii, Metal Queen, and Metal Goddess. Before Sakura Gakuin, she performed in a stage production of "The Adventurers" and was a member of the JPop trio, Karen Girls. Fun Fact: Bullfrogs are her Kryptonite Yui Mizuno\Yuimetal (Scream and Dance) Former member since 2018: Angel of Dance, Princess Yui, Tomato Princess, Tomato-Kun, Kawaii Princess and Devourer of Souls (or at least she stares into your soul). Yui had a minor role as a child actor in a Japanese TV Drama before joining Sakura Gakuin. She has cute, chubby cheeks. Fun Fact: Yui is tickled by Bullfrogs. ** WARNING ** Do NOT, ever, under any circumstances call her “small”, "smol", “short” or “tiny” (same rule applies to Moametal). Moa Kikuchi\Moametal (Scream and Dance): Angel of Love\Smile, Queen of Hearts, Princess Moa, Kawaii Princess, Super Moa-chan, Maiden of Mischief, and Headmistress of Hedabon. She has huge dimples and a smile that melts the hardest of hearts. Fun Fact: Loves to troll Su-metal on-stage with little pranks as well as torment Su-metal with Bullfrogs. Momoko Okazaki\Momometal (Scream and Dance): Angel of Joy, Kawaii Princess, Princess Peach, Vampire Slayer, Kabuki Queen. Also a Sakura Gakuin graduate. Was a contestant on the Korean reality survival program "Girls Planet 999" (which thankfully for The ONE, she was eliminated from early on) and performed in a stage musical production of "Black Butler". Momoko was the only “Avenger” (see below) to perform in the “10 BABYMETAL Budokan” shows in 2021 and was officially named Momometal and made a permanent member in April 2023. She deserves the spot! Fun Fact: Momoko's father is a popular comedian in Japan known for making dead-pan jokes. Momoko worked very hard to make her way without using his name as a crutch. BLACK BABYMETAL: Yuimetal and Moametal performing as a duet while Su-metal takes a breather. Also known as “MoiMoi”. There are 4 BBM songs (GJ!, Onedari Daiskusen, 4 No Uta\Song 4, and Sis. Anger) some of which Moametal performed solo a few times after Yui's departure. Now that Momometal is a member, we are hoping for more BBM songs with MoMoa! But only the Fox God knows. AVENGERS: 3 Dancers who took turns performing the choreography in Yuimetal’s spot after her departure. They were not official members did not have microphones and were not even named. It was the fans who quickly figured out who they were and you will see them in live performances between 2018 and 2021. They were: Momoko Okazaki (see above). Riho Sayashi: Suzuka’s former rival at Actors School Hiroshima, often competing for the same roles. Former “Ultimate Ace” of the JPop Idol group Morning Musume. Now a solo artist. Kano Fujihara: (performing in this video) Former Member of Sakura Gakuin, the school-aged Idol group that BABYMETAL was born out of. Like Suzuka and Moa before her, Kano was Student Council President her last year in Sakura Gakuin and like Yui, was considered arguably the best dancer in SG during her time there. She is now a member of the Idol group @onefive, which is comprised of 4 Sakura Gakuin graduates (Kano, Momo, Soyo and Gumi). Kano only performed with BABYMETAL in Japan as she could not travel, likely due to her commitments to Sakura Gakuin and the then developing @onefive. We are #notacult. Kitsune Da O! 🤘🦊🤘Y

Babymetal is one of the biggest Japanese metal bands in the world and they just recently completed a '94 date world tour which consisted of Europe the UK Asia Australia Canada and the US They have been around since 2010 their protection team is second to none and they constantly come up with some of the sickest stage designs you'll ever see

FINALLY! You were one of the creators I was waiting for to react to BabyMetal!! Ever since you started doing metal reactions I gained more and more hope :)

I just saw these girls LIVE in Madrid, Spain, last month... It was PHENOMINAL...

Head-banging and grinning at the end, that is the essence of BabyMetal. Glad to see you enjoyed it.

Babymetal started out as a sub-unit of a Japanese idol group but became independent from them some time later. During live performance they are supported by the Kami band. I have seen them first time in 2018 at Rock am Ring and they slayed it. In May last year I have seen them again as support for Swedish power metal band Sabaton. The Sabaton singer worked together with Babymetal in the past. And Babymetal is the first Japanese metal band to rank in the US Billboard 200 (the album charts).

They are just the best concert i have been in my life! the first one was canceled when i was living in Hong Kong and covid started... many years later i finally atended to one in London and mannnnnnnnn, it was unbelievable. best bang for your buck ever! i still regreat not going both days.

Bout time! Shit! More BabyMetal... Megitsune... Kingslayer 🔥 They were selling out shows at the age of 12,13, 15 yrs old

I saw them in Vancouver along with Dethklok. Great show. The energy level at a Baby Metal show is just bananas and all you can do is just go with it.

Glad to see you finally reacting to some BABYMETAL! You will not regret diving down this hole, they have such great music. Can't wait to see you react to more

Great reaction. Love baby metal. Love to see SU, Moa And Momo metal. Love from sweden.

From some quick research it looks like this might have been a crowd of around 17k. They once sold out 2 nights back to back at the Tokyo Dome, which has space for 55,000 people.

been following you for years and never did i expect you to react to Babymetal. Such a talented and storied metal band, definitely look more into them if you liked it.

Welcome to babymetal, They started when they were very young, (13 for the singer, 11 for the other 2) they are now 25 and 23 respectively. They are a Kawaii Metal Band. They have toured with Metal legends all over the world. If you want to know if it is crazy at the concert, yes. Now that you have gone down the Japanese rock/ Metal hole, just keep going! any babymetal song is Fire. then look up Band maid, Hanabie, Nemophila.

I'm with everyone here, MORE BABYMETAL!!! WELCOME TO THE TEAM!

Need more BABYMETAL SOOOOON

I saw them when they opened for the chili peppers back in 2017 and they were insane and it was even better that the crowd had no idea who they were and were into them so fast

They started in 2010. lead singer was 13, other girls were 11. The band are called the Kami(commie) Band. Thera Latest album was released in March of 23

REACT TO MORE BABYMETAL!!! I LOVE THIS

There is NOTHING like Babymetal!! i hope you revisit them 1000000000% worth the journey 🦊🦊

Dope reaction homie , "KARATE" Live is another absolute banger 🔥

Headbangerrr live is always a classic!!! Favorite metal band

Welcome to babymetal 🤘🦊🤘

And F. Hero just payed it all back with Leave it all behind. A Collab with the taiwanese Bodyslam, Babymetal and himself and each side add itss best sides into the song.

Went to their concert in Copenhagen last year, sickest fucking thing ever. I can tell you nothing compares to being in the crowd at a babymetal concert. The crowd control they have is insane and fun as fuck. Everyone is in sync and its just a great atmosphere overall. Loved it, going again next time their on tour.

You gotta respect the girls, because, even though they’re not playing in the band, they are singing and dancing for that entire show. And they make that shit look easy.

yeah i saw them live it was amazing

Saw this band live it was lit AF

Love Babymetal, I think you'll love their other stuff!

Having seen this song played live at the Hammersmith Odon. It was intense. It was one of those times, you had to be there.

PAPAYA!!

When they first appeared they were doing Ok until they released Give Me Chocolate and then that song went super viral and since they have done a bunch of hits. Karate is one of my favorites.

Aye Babymetal! So excited, I recommend BxMxC!

this stadium and setup is crazy

Band maid and Nemophila next!

With how much energy they spend on each song it's no wonder they have a strong love for food.

ベビーメタルには 素晴らしい歌🎤が沢山あるし、全てが本物です。

Tons of energy coming from this show! 🥳 🎉 🤘🤘🤘🤘

The three vocal/dance performers are all women. The rapper, F.Hero is a guest performer. The backing musicians are the Kami Band. The current incarnations is made up of American guys. They were the band who were engaged to tour with the girls when BABYMETAL went overseas. The original Japanese Kami Band backed them at shows in Japan until recently. They seem to have been replaced by the American version.

Best thing i can say to you is go see them live. Saw them last September in NYC Unbelievable live show

Brooooo this band is so good

MORE BABYMETAL REACTIONS this shit was fire 🔥

BABYMETAL 101 Babymetal is a Japanese group founded in 2010 and produced by Kei “Koba” Kobayashi from the Amuse Inc. talent agency. Babymetal name comes from the birth of a new style of metal fusing j-pop with metal creating what they call Kawaii Metal (Cute-Metal). The group currently consists of Suzuka Nakamoto aka “Su-Metal” (25 years old) sometimes referred to as Vocal and Dance. Moa Kikuchi aka "Moametal", pronounced as Moa-Metal (23 years old) as part of Scream and Dance. Momoko Okazaki aka Momometal (20 years old) as part of Scream and Dance. They are supported by a rotating selection of talented male backing musicians known as the Kami Band (Kami is usually poorly translated as gods, but in truth it more closely means awe inspiring spirit, entity, or object) It is why they are dressed in white to look like ghosts or spirits, though Kami being used as God(s) is so common in translation the white outfits get lost.) Past Formations. Heavy Music Club Era (2010-2012) From 2010 to 2012 Babymetal consists of a three-member formation, Suzuka Nakamoto (Age 12), Moa Kikuchi (Age 10), and Yui Mizuno aka "Yuimetal" pronounced Yui-Metal. (Age 10). First starting out as the Heavy Music Club as a subunit within the Developmental Idol Group created by Amuse in 2010 known as Sakura Gakuin. Sakura Gakuin is a group that introduces girls between the ages of 10-15 to music, dance, modeling, and acting through Japanese Pop idol music and culture. Given a school theme, all three would be a part of Sakura Gakuin until their graduation from it in the same school year they would graduate from Japanese middle school or 15 years old. Suzuka graduated in March 2013, and Moa and Yui in March of 2015. Sakura Gakuin is a fantastic group with great kawaii jpop songs in their own right. During this time there was no lore, and the girl’s costumes were more punkish in nature, which they helped create. They also didn’t perform with live music, using a backing track or the “Skeleton band” people pretending to play music behind them.

The Lore is complex and involves a battle against other evil idol corporations, gaining powers, some time travel, running a resistance group, all at the direction of a mythical deity known as the fox god, against an all-power enemy known as Akiba. The first Legend show “I” was the Kami Bands introduction to the end, but it also had the Skeleton Band which is seen in the wildly popular Gimmie Chocolate Music Video. This was followed by Legend D, and then Legend Z, in which it was learned that Babymetal would continue as its own entity after Suzuka’s graduation from Sakura Gakuin in March of 2013. Slowly over 2013 the Skeleton Band would be phased out of all live shows, as Babymetal came into their own. Babymetal as it is with Su-Metal, Moametal, Yuimetal, the Kami Band, and a somewhat understandable lore is what consisted for the majority of its existence. Also established beyond the 3-member formation, they had 2 other set ups, one was what fans called Su-Solos, and it would just be Su on stage with the Kami band, performing a solo, and the other is known as Black Babymetal by the band themselves, which consisted of just Moa and Yui.

Changes they would not tell fans and all throughout 2018 communicate extraordinarily little causing lots of pain for all involved fan and performer. This era is noted by their strange armor like costumes, sometimes referred to as Elf Armor. To make the poor communication, and Yui’s absence wasn’t bad enough, one of the more regular Kami band members, Mikio Fujioka passed away after falling off a balcony in late December 2017 while star gazing. A beloved and incredibly talented musician lost, leaving behind his wife and only child. In September 2018 Yui formally resign from Babymetal, stating her unspecified health and wishing to move on. Babymetal themselves announced that the group will move on focusing on Suzuka and Moa. (Something many idiots within the fandom refused or were too stupid to understand and formed the cancerous Yui-Cultists that would plague the fandom until Momometals debut. There are some holdouts, but thankfully they have become very rare.) In October Babymetal had a concert called Dark Night Carnival which added dancers, Shoko Akiyama, Saya Hirai, and Kotono, placing a total of seven girls on stage. This was also done without warning to fans and was an absolute mess. Babymetal would finish off the 2018 tour season returning to the 3-member formation with just Saya Hirai joining them in southeast Asia and Australia. Ending one of the most troubling times in Babymetal’s history. Music Videos of this Era (These MVs do not feature the members in them at all) Distortion Starlight (Don’t let overzealous fans fool you, this is OFFICIALLY not a tribute to anyone. A lot of fan speculation, end of story if they claim it is they are 100% lying to you.) Metal Galaxy Era (2019- Feb 2020) First introduced in 2019 during the Babymetal Arises concert in Yokohama, before the start, the “Avenger” support dancer concept was explained in the lore, and the concept thanks to communication and a maintaining of the 3-member formation brought Babymetal out of dark times brought about during 2018. Babymetal seemed to have returned to its roots with the Avengers, as 2 of the three (Kano and Momoko) come from Sakura Gakuin. The third Riho, went to the same performing arts school as Suzuka during the same time, Actors School Hiroshima aka ASH. Music Videos of this Era Pa Pa Ya Elevator Girl Shanti Shanti Da Da Dance (Avenger confusion) Which Avenger one sees can be confusing for those new to Babymetal. For the Music Videos, Pa Pa Ya, Elevator Girl, and Shanti Shanti Shanti, it is Kano Fujihira, who was just 14 years old at the time. Da Da Dance is a compilation of Momoko and Riho and a splicing of 2 different shows. In most fan cam videos of the American and European tour it would be either Riho or Momoko, as they toured with Babymetal in 2019. Kano had responsibilities with Sakura Gakuin as its president, a position Suzuka and Moa both held in Sakura Gakuin, and she’s never flown on a plane before. Some fans for 2019 did throw a stupid temper tantrum over the use of new Kami Band members who are from the west now known as the West Coast Kami Band, but like how the girls won over many, so did they and the payoff with the Legend Metal Galaxy concert in 2020 was well worth it.

OMG HE DOESN'T KNOW!!! One of the top music reactors and I never even realized he hasn't fallen down the Babymetal rabbit hole! Bro, there is so much awesomeness you are about to expericence!

Man BABYMETAL just came to a city close by and I wanted to go so bad but I had tickets that same week for Tenacious D. I really hope to see them at some point. Their energy is out of this world.

BABYMETAL are an absolute anomaly. Once you get into them, there’s no going back. All around fantastic band.

I've never been a huge fan of heavy metal or J-pop, but BabyMetal blends these genres with such massive energy that it's impossible not to love.

Great reaction! In 2023, they performed 94 live concerts in 25 countries! - most of them sold out. I live in DC, but flew to Japan for their first concert and to Spain for their last one... No one else makes this 75 year old geezer do this. Welcome to the FOXHOLE 🦊🦊🦊

Yooooo layedbak welcome to the foxhole bro. You gotta do more of there music.

If you havent heard already, Headbanger (specially the Apocalypse 1997 something or another video) is absolutely to DIE for. These girls CRUSH it in concert. By far my favorite concert I've ever been to. Would love to see what you think about it.

My son had me look them up today 6-9-2024 and my reactions are exactly what you're thinking. 😱🤘😱
