What else do they do? Anything they want. Eurobeat? See DA DA DANCE! Ska-metal? See YAVA! Rap-metal? See BxMxC. Power ballad? See No Rain No Rainbow. Nu-metal? See Onedari Daisakusen. Progressive metal? See Tales of the Destinies and Brand New Day. Folk metal? See Meta Taro and Oh! MAJINAI. I could go on, but the list grows long.

What's amazing is she sings this full throttle after singing an entire concert full throttle.

Thanks for the shout out - I'll try not to write quite so much this time. :-) This was 2015 at Saitama Super Arena, 20,000 or more and sold out - Su-metal was 17, Yuimetal and Moametal were 15 ... and yes if Su-metal wants a wall of death she just has to spread her arms, if she wants a circle pit she will just point and spin her finger and she gets what she wants. She has been on stage since she was about 8 or 9 and was a child model before that, so yes she is a very experienced performer and it was her vocal talents and stage presence that gave their producer the idea for her fronting a fusion metal/Jpop band in the first place. As it happens Herman Li and Sam Totman of DragonForce did write the guitar arrangements for 'Road of Resistance' and they played on the studio version - they have even played it live with BABYMETAL at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods awards in London in 2015 (there are a couple of not great quality videos of that on KZfaq). The band who support BABYMETAL are the Kami Band - some of Japan's very best session musicians - in this one Leda Cygnus and Takayoshi Ohmura were on guitars, BOH had his 6 string bass and Hidaki Aoyama was on drums. Kami means god or spirit - so they are the gods of guitar, bass and drums summoned to support BABYMETAL in all live shows since early 2014 (and in the encores in a few shows from October 2012). They wear traditional burial robes and corps face paint because of who and what they are (more recently replaced with black robes and masks, but nobody likes the masks, we want to see them enjoying themselves too). Any growls or screams you may hear in their songs are on a backing track along with additional instruments like piano or synthesiser etc. For something completely different again and to give you a better idea of what the Kami Band can do try 'Rondo of Nightmare' (a Su-metal solo song, so you will not see Yuimetal and Moametal dancing in this one) with the 'Mischiefs of the Metal Gods' instrumental intro live at Budokan 2014 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/br1yd8x9srS-k3k.html Su was only 16 in this one and really showing off more of her talents.

The musicians are called the "Kami Band". "Kami" means god in Japanese, and they are like gods of music. They are all men and are some of Japan's best musicians. They are wearing burial gowns and corpse face paint. This is because in the BABYMETAL lore, the Fox God raises the guys from the dead or summons on them to perform for the girls for each concert/show. The girls have been chosen by the Fox God to be the saviors of metal, and unite the world through metal.

This song was written by the 2 lead guitarists for Dragonforce. Their backing band is called The Kami band. They are all very good musicians especially the drummer.

To answer one of your questions: they do not write their own songs, with one single exception. "Song 4" or "4 no Uta" was written by Moametal and Yuimetal while on tour, challenged by Sumetal to make up a song about the number 4. They annoyed the tour staff so much with it that they turned it into a real song. If you want to continue being impressed, check out Rondo of Nightmare from the Budokan Black Night concert; for that performance they added a big instrumental intro that gives you a great chance to see their backing band in all their glory.

At the end the lead singer was saying "We are!" and then the other two girls were answering "Babymetal". They are the most original and diverse metal band going. Everyone on the stage is very, very talented.

BABYMETAL 101 Founded 2010 and produced by Key “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” (22 years old) sometimes referred to as Vocal and Dance, and Moa Kikuchi aka Moa-Metal (21 years old) sometimes referred to as Scream and Dance. With a rotating trio of girls filling the third slot, in a 3-member formation. These girls are known as Avengers and are Kano Fujihara (16 years old), Riho Sayashi (21 years old), and Momoko Okazaki (17 years old). They are supported by a rotating selection of talented 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 consist of a three-member formation, Suzuka Nakamoto (Age 12), Moa Kikuchi (Age 10), and Yui Mizuno aka 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 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. Music Video of this Era Doki Doki Morning Iine (Pronounced EE-NAH spelled i i n e) Headbangya Babymetal Era (2012-2017) Starting in 2012 with the Legend I concert, Babymetal began its slow divorce from Sakura Gakuin, and was the first introduction of the Kami Band as well as the “Lore” that is still heavily involved in Babymetal but makes far less sense than it did during this time. The Lore is complex and involves a battle against other evil idol corporations, gaining powers 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 most commonly known as with Su-Metal, Moa-Meta, and Yui-Metal, Kami Band, and a somewhat understandable lore is what consisted for the majority of it’s 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. Music Videos of this Era Gimmie Chocolate Megitsune Rondo of Nightmare - With mischief of the Gods Intro (Su Solo and a great expedition of the Kami Band) Road of Resistance Live in Japan (Co-written by Dragonforce) Iijime, Dame, Zettai Live at Sonisphere (No More Bullying Forever) Karate The Dark Times, The Chosen 7 Era In December 2017, Yui would miss the Legend-S concert for health reasons, these health problems would prosiest into 2018 and greatly affect the 2018 touring season bring the “Chosen 7” formation, consisting of Suzuka Nakamoto, Moa Kikuchi, and 2 backing dancers Minako Maruyama, and Minami Tsukui. 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 would 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 refuse or are too stupid to understand) 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 Metal Galaxy Era The current set up was 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 Fujihara, 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 was well worth it. COVID Era COIVD-19 has messed up a lot of things for everyone, Babymetal had to cancel their Asian tour, as well their big 10th Anniversary on October 10, 2020. Forced to keep it rather tame something very unlike Babymetal as even in their failures like the entire 2018 tour they do it septically. The question for many fans is what of the Avengers, since COVID, Avenger Riho Sayashi has signed with a new agency and has move on to other projects, including starting a fan club, which appears to rule her out of ever being an Avenger again. Kano Fujihara has graduated from Sakura Gakuin on August 30, 2020, a near 4 month delay. However, she and fellow Sakura Gakuin graduates Soyoka Yoshida, Tsugumi Aritomo, and Momoe Mori in the formation of @onefive. Which leaves Momoko Okazaki as last standing Avenger with no new commitments. However, Kano was technically in Sakura Gakuin, @onefive, and Babymetal all at the same time for almost a year so it is possible she will still be an Avenger. Music Videos of this Era BxMxC (First music video that isn’t footage from a show featuring Su and Moa since Karate in 2015)

Headbanger Live Legend 1997 or Rondo of Nightmare with the Mischiefs of God intro would really blow your hair back.

Their concerts are completely bonkers. At concerts in Japan it's considered impolite to sing along with the lead vocals, so the job of the 2 younger girls here is to give the audience a part to sing and cheer along with. So everyone in the audience knows their part and plays along as hard as they can and it's just a massive high octane hilarious silly good time. If you go and are ready to fully embrace the silly (as you guys seem more than ready to do) it's seriously the best time ever. Next up you should see them in front of a western crowd. Either IDZ@Sonosphere2014 ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNVdksaTy8rWiXk.html ) or Karate@Download2016 ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p752bJeDrL-pnas.html )

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🏴 🏴 🏴 "Stand up and shout, Shout!, Justice Forever!" - (Road of Resistance) At the end they were saying "We are!… BABYMETAL!". That was the last song of a three song encore. BABYMETAL's lead singer, Suzuka Nakamoto first appeared at this venue, Saitama Super Arena (SSA) in 2008 as a member of the JPop trio Karen Girl's, when she was 10 years old. She's been back many times since, headlining with BABYMETAL, as well as opening for Guns 'n' Roses. At this point, they should just give her a key to the place. : ) There are so many other great BABYMETAL songs, that it's hard to know where to start. This one is from the same 2013 concert ('Legend 1997') as the official video for 'Gimme Chocolate!!'. It's part of a five song encore with the live Kami Band. 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!': kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h6ujgsR-x7Sqp6s.html

Rondo of Nightmare next!!!!!!! Good reaction guys. I'm a 52 yr old, veteran, truck driver, and a huge Babymetal fan. This band is amazing. They kill it live and have bad ass professional music videos. I saw them live in 2019 at the Hard Rock in Orlando. They are the real deal.

14:40 they are saying WE ARE... BABYMETAL! This was an Encore wasn't the start of the concert. They had already been singing and hardcore dancing for hours+ The energy these girls bring to a concert is unreal. Why the crowd loves them and why we love them!

I love dragon force, but the Kami band is just as good just not as famous

You looked exhausted just from watching half way in. :-) I think even among the really big names, there's hardly any band that can deliver such a complete package of fun. Every aspect of their performances (the vocals, the instrumentals, the dancing, the songwriting, the stage presentation, the lights, the crowd interaction) is on an amazingly high level.

Whether the girls write their own music or not, they are entertainers and professionals. The fact that the girls have been in the industry for a decade now and been touring around the world, shows that this is no longer a gimmick/fad. Respect to them and the musicians

Great reaction! It was fun for you guys who were playfully dressed and made serious comments haha. I'm glad you understand their charm. Please continue to Babymetal react.

Great reaction! Here is a little bit of info...In 2019, BABYMETAL became the first Asian artists to hit #1 on BILLBOARD's Top Rock Albums chart with their latest album, "Metal Galaxy". BABYMETAL have performed with, toured, or opened for Red Hot Chili Peppers (there is a youtube video of them performing Gimme Chocolate with RHCP, as well as with Korn, and DragonForce), Metallica, Korn, Dragonforce, Guns N' Roses, Lady Gaga, and Rob Halford of Judas Priest (there's a great youtube video of their performance with Rob at a metal award show), to name a few of many. BABYMETAL has been around for TEN years and have performed at large metal events/concerts in front of 65,000+ skeptical metalheads in Europe (Glastonbury, Download, Sonisphere, etc), US, and Asia. Plus the 20+ awards they have been given. They have 50+ songs and each one is different from the other, so I hope you give the other songs a try. By the way, they have some really great heavy songs too, and I hope you like guitar solos, as well as bass and drum solos, like I do, because they have them too.

I love the Ambassadors of BABYMETAL who come to all of the reaction videos welcoming everyone to the foxhole and supplying volumes of information on this absolutely amazing group. It is so very cool imho: かっこい👍

That my friends, is our Queen Su-metal, she makes grown men tear, she has the most wicked DEATH stare you'll ever see, we bow before her willing giving up our souls to her, she reigns supreme. BABTMETAL FOREVER 10 years and still Legends 🤘🤘🤘 All hail The Fox God

one of the best parts about anything involving babymetal is that you can always usually find some good vibes and leave happy

WoD , Mosh pit and Circle pit always happens on Babymetal Live. this WoD and circle pit is only the medium size , the biggest one that me know is at MetRock 2015.

baby metal is crazy😎😍😍 ... these three little devils are really good at performing live😎😍

If you want to see Su's crowd control, you should check out Karate at Download in 2016.... For Road of Resistance it was a home crowd.... There, it was a bunch of Westerners who probably didn't know what she was singing about, and she still got them to jump to her command. Her crowd interaction in that concert gets me teary eyed.

The reason why crowds do not sing along a lot is that it was the very first time for them to play this song in Japan, and the song itself was released just a couple of days before the show, they had just played this song once in London three months before. In other words, the audience had learned the "Wow-wow-wow" chants by watching fan cams of the London show again and again.

Yes, this song is a collab with dragon force.

And you still haven't even scratched the surface ! Wait until you've seen their concerts in DVDrips... Yes your faces look like mine when I first watched that video. I had seen Gimme Chocolate MV and a few other MV's and it was cool and all but I only became a real fan when I witnessed their live shows. ABSOLUTELY killing it. At 15 years old. I was blown away and I still am.

You guys are hilarious. I first found you guys reacting to Eskimo Cowboy and now I'm super pumped to see you jumping into the Babymetal foxhole. I recommend Headbanger from the Legend of 1997 concert, another epic performance. And also Catch Me if You Can from the Black Night Legend Doomsday concert about a game of hide and seek with Japanese Ogres, known as Oni's. Su is a goddess and we are The One! #notacult

Loved your reaction your wanting to pause but where enjoying it and did not know where and the look on your Faces and was that emotion in your eyes when it was finnished . Thats is what being a BabyMetal fan feels like . The stage presences is even greater at the show . At the recent Metal Galaxy show during the song Distortion Su went full Goddess . Stuck her arm out and made a circular motion with her finger without saying a word and lots of huge circle pits appeared all over the stadium. 🤘🦊🤘

Thanks , BabyMetal Catch Me If You Can, live at Black Night Legend Doomsday show 3 guitar solos, drum solo Mind blowing!!! So Metal, So cute!!!!!

ok fellas, maybe you are ready for BxMxC, and go ahead and wear your big boy clothes, because Babymetal will blow your minds. btw, great content

I really like your collective energy in these reactions. Keep doing BabyMetal. This is an amazing performance, like blow your mind amazing performance, but it's not one of their best songs imo (insanely difficult and fast though it is). Megitsune, Headbanger, Kagerou if you want something newer, they also just made a video for BMC last week that is cool. But live is always amazing and there are dozens of great songs to choose from.

FYI: There is no "pro-shot" video of Babymetal performing with *Korn* or *Red Hot Chili Peppers* , only fan/phone video. There is "pro-shot" video of performances with *Dragonforce* at the Golden God's Awards and with *Rob Halford* at the APMAs. There are other performance collaborations, but it is rare to get good video from most of them.

Nice reaction & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。As you mentioned this was filmed in 2015, so the girls have grown up into beautiful ladies now and their performance has matured, and yet very energetic as before, Their activities have been worldwide. For example, since June last year until March this year, they performed 20 times in USA, 19 in EU/UK/Russia and 1 in Taiwan in addition to 15 in Japan (total : 49 their own concerts + 6 appearance in festivals). The crowd involvement you saw occurs everywhere they go. If you find videos of this song performed at the Forum, LA on Oct. 11, 2019, you will see what I mean. If you want to go further, you should follow the recommendation by Grington300 300 below. "Rondo of Nightmare with the Mischiefs of the Metal Gods' intro" should be you next. (Please make sure you are reacting to 7-minute long version because there are several shorter versions which cuts musicians' solo part)

Lol I love that shocked look when it all started. They are the real deal they are impressive in so many ways.

You guys are going to fall in love with their backstory. What you see are highly trained professionals, who have studied their art since they were about 8. Good point about the crowd. this was at Budokan. The house rules are that you must remain in your seats. There are some tunes on this DVD where, in almost every crowd shot, everybody is on their feet, rocking out....in a conservative, law abiding culture.

After you watch at least five videos, watch their first official video, Doki Doki Morning.

Awesome reaction! "Rondo of Nightmare live at Budokan" if you want to get a closer look of the KamiBand. "Headbanger live Legend 1997" if you want to see maximum Babymetal energy.

Thank you doing this reaction ! If you keep going on this path, better not play dress up every time... because the path is long... very long if you keep going all the way down the 'fox hole' all do a lot of videos on them. Honestly, if you don't join into the fun of audience participation (nosh pit, singing alone, throwing up fists or 'kitsune sign', like the metal horns, but different) after more than an hour of Babymetal live show than you are probably: deaf, blind or have no pulse. Or you've already done so and are just out of breath. :-)

A bit late to the party so it may have been mentioned in previous comments, but something that was of interest to me concerning DragonForce's collaboration on RoR, from Wikipedia: "According to Kadokawa, the song consists of twin shred guitars courtesy of (Herman) Li and (Sam) Totman (both of DragonForce), with a dynamic sound derived of melodic speed metal." Further, according to Li & Totman, they wrote the guitar parts with such technicality & speed because they thought it would never be played LIVE. Oops! BABYMETAL'S backing group, the insanely talented, mega bad-ass KAMI Band disavowed that notion as just witnessed! To Li & Totman's credit, they eventually did perform it LIVE & with BABYMETAL. This is what's possible when you adhere to a core BABYMETAL philosophy: "Don't think. FEEL." Arigatou! 🦊🤘

True or false statement: Legend #1 : 3 tiny teenage girls from metal galaxy who command thousands of metalheads to mosh pit Answer : YESSS!!

how to make a fan in less than 2 minutes 12:25 Initiate the extraction. 13:00 Stage 1 completed 13:25 Final stage (freezes) 13:50 Soul extraction complte.

We are.. BABYMETAL! Welcome! Awesome reactions! Loved it! Check more songs! Enjoy the journey! See you soon! 🤘🦊🤘

if you want a great live performance Rondo of nightmare with intro live. . the intro is an amazing musical intro that shows cases the band with around the house solo's, and the song is a Su solo as well and really shows off her vocal talents

Herman Li and Mat of dragon force wrote the guitar for road of resistance

14:45 "We are" "BABYMETAL!"

Really hate to bring it up, but watch it with the r-bomb, man. There's disabled people in my life and every time I hear that word it puts a real damper on what would otherwise be a good time. I grew up in the 90s, so I know how hard the habit is to break, but it's worth doing.

They had not even heard of metal music when they started in Babymetal. It is a concept by Kobametal a sort of a producer who hand picked Su-Metal from Karen Girls a J-pop band. But from what has been on KZfaq Su-Metal enjoys the genre. She has been playing along side the living metal god Rob Halford, that is a performance to look up, despite the crowd being really bad at that performance, like dead. Also all bands who has done collabs with them has enjoyed it so I expect great things rom Babymetal, fans Su-metal in particular. (I think she will end up in the powermetal genre eventually if she doesn't go symphonic metal)

WELCOME to BABAYMETAL world, every song is a new discovery, yes they are young, at that time SU-Metal (vocal) 16 years old, YUI-Metal and MOA-Metal 15 years old, they are very talented and the band that supports KAMI band is impressive, I recommend it to you react to BABYMETAL RONDO of NIGHTMARE with mischiefs intro, in this song you will understand the power of SU-Metal in the vocals and musicians of the KAMI band, sorry for my wrong English, my first language is Portuguese!

Good reaction guys. Please do react on Rondo of Nightmare (Mischief of Gods intro) wherein they showcase their backing band (Kami Band). Please please please!!

I am very glad that you glad to listen to babymetal music. cute reaction^_^ japanese //

The collaboration with DragonForce were a few things. For one, they helped write this song. Also, at first the people that ran Download festival refused to ever let Babymetal play there. At the 2015 Download, DragonForce brought them on stage during their set to do Gimme Chocolate, so they were the band behind them. Also, DragonForce did once play the backing band for Road of Resistance at an awards show for them. Basically, if you've ever heard an interview by them, DragonForce have been big fans of Babymetal ever since they debuted back around the 2010-2012 era, before they hit it big internationally.

Great reaction guys. The look of your faces are the look of many first timer before they are sitting comfortably at the bottom of the fox hole. I'd suggest Ijime Dame Zettai live at Sonisphere next so you'd can see how it all began for Babymetal in the international arena or metal galaxy. Good job guys. I enjoyed that

Asked about his appreciation for the Japanese pop metal act BABYMETAL, Rob Zombie said: "I saw them the other day for the first time. I mean, I'd seen videos and stuff, but I saw them live for the first time the other day, and I just loved it; it was like nothing I had ever seen before. I mean, it was just like… Leave it to the Japanese to find a way to make fucking death metal cute. But it was awesome. And the crowd… The crowd was going fucking apeshit. The amount of crowdsurfing and stage diving and just complete mayhem, which made it even funnier, 'cause it's three cute little girls doing fucking karate on stage and shit, and these guys [that are backing them] are dressed like ghosts, all in white. It's the most bizarre fucking thing. It's totally worth watching; it's so good."

Like an entire concert in one song.

Everyone on stage does things live but they have a backing track at their concerts with recorded keyboards and screams.

The guy on the right, every time he looks at his mate has the same energy as a toddler looking at his dad to see how he should react to what is happening.

we are,,BABYMETAL, great reaction boys..

You guys are great. I love how you give your thoughts rather than just going "wow that was crazy! Ok like and subscribe" hahaha

That was a really great reaction guys! Honestly though, as great as this was, you haven't seen anything yet. I'm going to enjoy watching your voyages down the foxhole. I dismissed this band as well for a LONG time, and it is one of my biggest regrets in life, since I'll never get to see the original three live or the Black Babymetal performances live (you'll find out about that in time) but thank goodness there are so many live shows on video, DVD, and BD.

Su metal is a STAGE GENERAL, When she says everyone now sh*t, then they shat lol She could end wars

The thing that blew my mind was that I first thought this was what they opened the show with....but this was their CLOSER!!! I mean, how tired are they after an entire show, and then give THIS performance at the end!? They have the endurance and stamina of a professional athlete to do it!!!

you said " i wish i knew what she was"............. At that time she said "We are Babymetal !" in English .

the reaction at the beginning of the song...priceless:-)

WE ARE BABYMETAL

Ok you guys absolutely NEED to watch the music video for Doki Doki Morning now. Oh and the oldest, lead singer, is 21 now I think. The other 2 are 20 if I remember right. That would put them around 12 when Babymetal started.

Great reaction guys! I've seen 100's of shows in my many years on this planet. From Maiden to Rammstein to Garth Brooks and to Metallica....That being said, BABYMETAL is the REAL DEAL. I've now seen them 4 times including not only the largest show, but also the smallest show on the last US tour (Forum in LA and Roseland in Portland). It doesn't matter what venue you put them in or how big the crowd is, these girls and those musicians give EVERYTHING they've got at every show and only leave you wanting more. I took a friend who is not really a BABYMETAL fan to the show at the Palladium in LA a few years ago and though he still wasn't a fan musically, he admitted their stage presence and showmanship was incredible. They are definitely a force to be reckoned with!!!!

I genuinely can't recommend enough seeing Babymetal live... Kitsune Up!

and when you mentioned Dragon Force, Herman Li and Sam Totam helped with the guitar arrangements. AND even performed alongside them at an award show.

When the Queen ask WE ARE and hails the crowd with a SEE YOU, you better answer the call to arms. That's stage command. Brilliant.

Amazing reaction, you guys are fucking hilarious and I love your honesty and really glad you enjoyed them. Definitely subbing

Fun Fact: they did featuring with DragonForce itself actually

one of the band members of Dragon Force said they did the guitars to this song. I think they wrote the guitars. So it is inspired from dragonforce

I'm sure you will have plenty of history background about them from other comments. Just a few fun facts about Su-Metal ( the main singer ) She's not able to drive a bike and make often mistake with her right and left shoes xD But dude, put her on stage and she will kick your ass hard ! She's born to be on stage.

I'm glad to see you followed up the Gimme Chocolate comments suggesting you watch this. It's a freekin' awesome performance. oh and near the end, the final chant is "we are.. Babymetal"

A superb mixture of 2 groups I love. The guitars of Dragonforce with the vocals of BABYMETAL.

In case no one else has clarified this yet: 1) At the time of this performance, Su-Metal (Suzuka Nakamoto, the lead singer) was 17 years old. Moametal and Yuimetal (Moa Kikuchi and Yui Mizuno, the two backup singers/dancers) were both 15. 2) They're yelling "We are (Babymetal!)" at the end of the performance. 3) This performance was at Saitama Super Arena (Saitama, Japan). There were about 20,000 people in the audience.

Japanese crowds quiet and reserved? You guys need to watch more, lol. I went to two concerts in Japan in 2019 (for the group BiSH) and I have never experienced an audience like it in my life. A complete madhouse for two hours straight.

Just found you guys! Y'all are hilarious! Please more BABYMETAL!!

As a huge Babymetal fan I really enjoyed your reaction here. I'm going to Sub with you guys now. Please check out more from them. If they ever come to your town Go! Ive seen them live last year and they are amazing! Keep up the great reactions guys.....

The song was written for them by Dragon Force and they used Dragon Force as their backing band when they appeared in London at an enormous venue

"Good Job" oh yeah, that is another great Babymetal song (often nicknamed "G.J.")

At the end Su is saying “we are” and the reply of course is Babymetal

They had no choice about metal. They had never heard of it when their managers told them that is what they were going to do. In Japan a management group trains up lots of individuals and kicks out those they dont like, picks those they do like and forms a group. They then decide who will do what role in the group, what sort of music they will do, everything. They control their lives completely. The girls are not allowed boyfriends or similar. It's brutal.

Great reaction....lmao you guys were ready to goof on them but your facial expressions said it all. Welcome to the cult I mean CLUB. Here are some of Babymetal's friends... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h6yirMeA1bipc4E.html

This is the best video for BABYMETAL fans.

Can't wait for the next video(s). I personally KINDA like Babymetal but... I need a MINIMUM of 5-6 drinks.

I so enjoyed your reaction, love the outfit. Can't for next babymetal reaction.

"I wish I knew what they are saying" Them: "We are?" Crowd: "Babymetal!!!"

This is 2 months old. But I have to comment on the crowds thing. Japanese has always had THEE most interactive crowd I have ever seen. If their idols want them to sing want them to jump they fricken do it it’s insane.

We are Babymetal!! Good good reaction guys! Now you need watch Headbangher or Megitsune live! Are absolutely Amazing and crazy! See you in the next 🤟🏻 🦊
