The heaviest song ever made about hide n seek/tag... with an ogre of course! Keep up the Babymetal reactions, love it!

Good reaction - best metal song about playing hide & seek or tag there is - although they are playing with an Oni (a sort of Japanese ogre). And yes that is all there is to it, no metaphor for anything darker. The growling voice is the Oni asking things like "Are you ready yet" etc. However you asked about the red shoes. This was kindly explained by a Japanese commentor called Flugelhorn Old Man in another reaction video about a week ago. He said "The last part of the lyric means "Red shoes, you shouldn't wear. Because they are dangerous." It comes from an old Japanese song written in 1922 "A girl wearing red shoes" being based on a story told soon after the Meiji Restoration when Japan started to open to Western countries. The song is about a foreigner who took a little girl away to his homeland and the girl was allegedly wearing a pair of red shoes. So this song seemed to relate to some crime (maybe a kidnap) and the people at that time (more than 100 years ago) were cautious about foreigners as potentially dangerous existence like big red-haired ogres. The true story, however, turned out to be different. There was a couple and the husband and wife were too poor to take care of their daughter suffering from tuberculosis which was incurable disease at that time in Japan. So the parents trusted the girl to a American missionary and asked him to foster her. The girl's disease was very bad and she died before going to the USA. The mother, however, believed that her daughter became healthy and was living in the country across the ocean." The Kami Band here (in the order of solos) were Takayoshi Ohmura and Leda Cygnus (guitars), BOH (6 string bass) and Hideki Aoyama (drums).

You just witnessed a perfect blend of Cute & Metal... Kawaii Metal. ;)

The sound is very heavy. But the song is very catchy. This is BABYMETAL. This is Kawaii(cute) metal.

they are playing hide and seek to the ogre

Good reaction, thanks! This was my very first BABYMETAL song, so it's very special to me. Also good video choice. This is way better than other compilation videos you can find out there. And it's good in order to follow the extra cute choreo here. We specially love the famous "Moa slide" movement (4:22 on your video). Looking forward more BABYMETAL. See you next time!

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🏃‍♀️👹 So this cute song is about playing a game that is like hide-and-go-seek. Pursued by an "Oni"" which is a kind of Japanese Ogre. While Megitsune is still my favorite, I think this is one of their their most fun choreographies. If much of their charm is in the blending of the cute and the brutal, this song is a great example. The recurring "Maada da yo." part that Yui and Moa sing means "Not ready yet."

Babymetal the Cheerleaders of METAL..... :)

thank you for loving baby metal from japan I am japanese man sorry,i can not write english very much.

You guys should check out ijime dame zettai live at sonissphere 2014 the year Babymetal became a international hit live at a festival with very heavy metal fans who have been known to throw bottles of piss at bands they hate one minute you can see how quickly the crowd changes and loves them. also the song means no more bullying forever

This is fantastic! Whatever is said about These girls sounds silly now. What a vibe!

CMIYC is the definition of Kawaii Metal :)

Great reaction and well done spotting the darker side of story. Lot of Japanese folklore mixed up in this as being mentioned. How parents tell tales to children to be make them behave . Like the wearing of red shoes drawing attention to yourself . The ogre likes red shoes . Anyway it makes a hell of a fun song . If it had not been the Budokan venue no moshing no room to , they would of being huge circle pits with people running in circles Which adds to the performance. 🤘😷🤘

Great reaction guys, greetings from Colombia. Please react to Ijime,Dame,Zettai - Live at Sonisphere 2014,UK

Great reaction I support your videos from JAPAN

Playing hide and seek with a flesh-eating ogre is metal AF!

すっぱ兄さん＆オッケー坊や、リアクションありがとう！もっと見てくれ！！

I'm only gonna comment on the music from now on, cause I kinda made my point already about the vocals, although I kinda liked the dark voice in this song. The music is awesome as usual... the instrumental solo's were cool too...

Great Reaction. Thanks! The Red Shoes refers to a legend about little girl who disappeared a long time ago in Japan who liked to wear red shoes. It really happened, but are not in agreement on how it happened. Anyhow, there are statues of this girl all over Japan and people donate money to some for Children’s finds. I think the thing here is that Babymetal songs are highly crafted and mean a lot more than people would expect. I don’t think the Red Shoes are really a dark reference but just something little girls might say when playing Hide and Seek with a demon.

The very first song that I heard from them that hooked me instantly..

How can teens filled with angst relax enough to like this.. its beyond me

In the studio recording, some of the sounds used are very sinister. The beginning with the echoing footsteps, the rising guitar sound to start what becomes the chase music of a horror movie. The echoing little girl voices that trail off as the chase continues. It may sound cute, but I think it's scary af. They're being chased by a demon! And the red shoes gives them away. In the end the demon yells "I found you!" This isn't just hide and seek. It's a horror movie chase scene. Listen to the studio version for effect. Live tho kills the whole horror vibe cause the girls ARE SO DAMN CUTE!!!🤣🤣🤣 Of course, this is just my own imagining of the song.😁

awesome❤️Nice😄

I like the instrumental part. The guitars, but what I find a little less is that the girls sound so young in terms of voice

Bass guitar solo, first ting that comes to Allans mind is Cliff Burton. Respect man! Respect!! 🤘😣🙌

good morning guys. this kind of music is not for me but nice to see how you respond to so many different styles of music. respect greetings from the Netherlands

Can add, The growl is the ogre that growl ( Ooi moo iikai, moo iikai ) i are you ready, are you ready here I come.. and they answer ( Maada da you ) No, not yet. CHEERS!

The Kami Band is Bad ass! Su, Moa and Yui are bad ass also! The absolute most awesome song ever about playing hide and seek! May the fox God bless your reaction channel! 🦊🦊🦊🦊

Literally noone does a show like these girls and that Kami band.. Called Catch me if You Can and not terribly deep at all really.. You guys crack me up! Long live BM..

Like the music... a bit weird though combining this music style with girls that young... maybe it’s a cultural thing, but I cannot imagine such a band being from Europe or the US. But it’s great to see different things, so I am curious what next song of them will appear on your channel.

3:52 - Moa-chan and Yui-chan "Mada dayo" (No, Not Yet!) So cute!!!!!

Good reaction-Boss and minions👍

I searched “Vannda - Catch Me If You Can reaction” and this popped up 🤣🤣

Is this beavis and buttheads cousins from Oklahoma? Kidding guys, great reaction video

Next: Megitsune (MV) KITSUNE UP...!!!

Ну и рожи у вас) Спасибо за прекрасную реакцию!)

The song is about hide n seek to trick a Japanese lore figure, the evil ogre ( similar to our oger, troll etc.. ) And Part of lyrics is, don't where red shoos then he'll catch you and it's very bad, so hid and seek be quick and hide.

Love the background flag...USA, 4th of July!

Amazing solid string solos!

1. RIP Mikio 😥 2. That Smile of Moa is so fn infective 🤘🦊

that protection alert popped up on your computer because you were having impure thoughts about those girls when they came on lol

The "children" play hide and seek and sing about it, not so interesting. But the band plays a darn good performance on their instruments. That's all I can say about it.
