The joy this kid has discovering this band brings me back to 2019 when I discovered them.

Great reaction! What makes me most happy is that you watched the official BABYMETAL channel!🤘🦊

Basically this song is about fighting your inner demons and don't give up!

This was the first Babymetal song that truely caught me and always makes me cry 😭 Great reaction ❤🦊🤘

Such a powerful video and message...I can tell, you were feeling it

I love this song

Great reaction again.🦊🤘 'Karate' was the lead single for their second album (2016). It is about fighting adversity, when life knocks you down and everything seems too hard so you're hurt and crying, its about standing up and fighting on, helping each other through the hard times. They used karate to illustrate this because as a Japanese martial art it reflects their culture - as with a lot of their songs it is also about always moving forwards. In the video the figures in white were the girls all along and they were conjuring up their own inner demons to fight against. They beat the first, the second knocked them down but they got up to eventually defeat themselves (did you notice the reflections of each of the girls in their own eyes when the masks shattered and it was revealed as them? Not many people spot that). They did watch a lot of martial arts movies to get ideas for the choreo as they wanted it to look as authentic as possible (but they are not martial artists). Moa catching the fly was a nod to Mr Miyagi in The Karate Kid. Mr Miyagi may have used chop sticks (and it may have taken him two or three films before he caught one), Moa caught her fly with her eyes closed - first time. This song and video won 2 awards. "Best Metal Video in MTV Video Music Awards Japan 2016" and "Best Metal Song in 6th Annual Loudwire Music Awards".

Guys, why do I always cry at this song? Whether in the music video or in a live performance I always cry, and I have heard it thousands of times. I see I'm not the only one this happens to. Great reaction, many surprises still await you on this wonderful musical journey that you have begun. BabyMetal forever!! 🦊🦊🦊🍅

nice reaction...and you always look beautiful...keep your health and smile...🦊🦊🦊

Great reaction! Babymetal is pure positivity, and you really can't go wrong choosing any song. Looking forward to more reactions. 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻 Pretty dress btw 👍🏻

Good one👊🏽⚡️Such a good song and video👊🏽⚡️🦊🤘🏾

_Ossu!_ 🦊🤘🥋 Welcome back to the Foxhole and cool you're keep rocking your journey with more BM songs. "Karate" is one of their stronger weapons along with "Road Of Resistance" from 2nd album "Metal Resistance" released in 2016. It's an uplifting song about keep fighting besides the obstacles, and if you take a closer look at the end you'll see in the eyes of their rivals that they're fighting against no other than themselves. Some fans also find anime vibes on BabyMetal songs, the only other song I could find with anime vibes besides this one and "Divine Attack - Shingeki", is "Syncopation" another banger. They watched several footage before making this song, one of those were "Karate Kid" old movie, that's why you see MoaMetal catching a bug, that's a reference to the movie, after this she became the bug catcher expert when traveling on live tour lol. The bats and the concrete blocks testing strength is another infamous Karate reference. Btw just in case, the band playing behind in this MV are hired actors, they got their own set of musicians when performing live called Kami Band, they're not always the same musicians but currently this year they've been playing with a westerners band unlike early era after 2012 when they had a Japanese band. You can enjoy the live version with the blaster sound of the Kami Band watching Download Festival 2016 among many others but this one is safe to react. Another cool version to watch and meet the new Metalverse subgroup is Karate live at PIA Arena MM 2023, they got their own songs but you can start with this introduction. Next suggestion to enjoy one of the best SuMetal solos: - Akatsuki live at Budokan 2014. See you next time 🦊🤘❤

👍👍An awesome MV. This was my introduction to the wonderful world of BABYMETAL. 🦊🦊🦊 🖖❤

Look up the lyrics for all songs, so much more meaningful! Most songs have a positive meaning. Keep going!

🤘🦊🤘💕

nice reaction...and i love your hair...❤❤❤

Keep rockin’ BABYMETAL!!! KITSUNE UP!!! 🤘🦊🤘

🤘🇺🇦❤️🦊

👍🏻

👍 👍

The masks cracked and the girls came out. This is a song about fighting and overcoming ourselves. There are many different live versions, so please take a look! 🔥🤘🦊 From🇯🇵

⚡ 💀 💕 / 👻 👻 👻 Your interpretation is a good one. A lot of fans think that they were fighting and overcoming their own inner demons. There's a good reason this was the featured single from the second album. : ) They made a lot of friends among Metal bands by playing a bunch of festivals, and this song converted quite a few. As is usually the case, the riffs are even heavier live. Like a lot of BABYMETAL songs, this one has a positive message about facing life's challenges.

Please please please watch this version of Karate next? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLFiiM2K3di1dn0.html

Well, an old Goodie. For dome zime it looked like this songs would be in zhe pockets of Metalverse, but while Babymetal oasses record after record and successful songvafter song Metalverse achieved one promo concert and dropped from 5 to 3 members, so who might have mire money.
