Loving this song! Can't wait for the new album!

There is so many levels in this song, many listens to digest it all!

I absolutely love this song. This is a bloody anime song, and I usually don't love their anime stuff that much, Different has grown on me but it's not what I call "favourite" but this one might be my new favourite. It has the strong middle eastern vibe I love, and that mini breakdown after the first chorus, has either Koto or Sitar. Whichever it is, is so clever! Who else would do something so unique like that? The Saiki's ascending vocal run reminds me a lot of what I hear in Indian music, She's done vocal run, both descending and ascending, but this time it has the different flavour. Miku's guitar is much more prominent than usual, and Kanami solo, She's playing scales as usual but there's the perfect balance of feel, groove and chaos. And the final assault by Band-Maid gang finished by Saiki, is also the perfect way to end the song. Admittedly I love all sorts of music other than hard rock, so I was so excited by hearing some new and different elements in this song. I've seen comments saying their anime songs sounding samey. Well, listen again. It's packed with ideas. This song is playing on loop in my brain all day. And this is...a bloody anime song! I can't believe myself. It's the perfect reminder that anime songs are also "music" Great music transcends genre" 😂 Oh I've forgot to mention Bass and Akane, I mean how much I love Akane's drum? It goes without saying. 😂 But this song showcases absolutely everyone, and I've forgot to mention the most obvious.

The maids with another anime trac to add to their collection

1st listen i was not hooked,but numerous listens later,its a banger,so much to unpack in a song like this,its what BM do,great reaction pal.

Mate! Greetings from sun bleached Shizuoka City! Great reaction! These songs are made on order, but they still produce bangers out of anime movies theme music. This is actually their 6th anime composition after Carry on living glory Different Sense Shambles Bear in mind as these songs serve a very narrow purpose to help viewers remember such movies. Such music requires the skills of session musicians, a totally higher degree! Expect more from them! Best regards, Roebrt-Gilles

Dan -- All Band-Maid's songs commissioned for anime (aniMaid), like Protect Me was, are growers for me. But grow, they do!

Showing humanity what is possible. (I love your Hendrix poster...I suspect that Misa does too).

Another great reaction! I get what you mean, this one took a few listens in but now I cannot get it out of my head. I find that with anime songs, which are written with stories and characters in the series in mind. It really helps to get a general idea of what the anime is about to fully appreciate the song. Like in this one, I originally did not like the "Ooh La La" parts in the song, but then when I found out Miku intentionally put that line in it was because the anime "Grendizer" was so massively popular in France when it first aired in the late '70s and '80s, that it developed a huge cult following with the kids who grew up in the '80s there. The "Ooh La La" was a thank you to the French people for their love and support of the anime series. So smart!

Band-Maid playin’ Kanami/Band-Maid things..This grows in every listening. This has potential to be major hit in Western world too..Hope they find major Record label. They are way too good 🔥🤘❤️🇫🇮

Thanks 2G

Ouh là là, Band-Maid! Thx, Dan Dan Di Di Dan Dan!

2-Gen, good to see you again, I'm glad you're reacting to my favorite band, Band-Maid. This song and video is perfect for an action anime. I wonder how fast the BPM's are in this song. I wonder if they rival "Black Hole". I understand the anime that they recorded this for is popular in France. I guess that's why Saiki uses a lot of "Ou la, la, la, las". I wonder if the release of this video is a pre-cursor of Band-Maid touring Europe in the fall and winter. You're right, at first, you can't grasp it it and then after a couple of listens you begin to like it. I also understand broke out her new signature PRS during the video, but the images don't give the viewers a good look at it.

I liked!!!!! ❤🎉❤

Random music Master gen,,nice,,,,,, up the next🤔 Will see😉

Verse 1 is chaotic. Verse 2 is tight and clear. IMO, It has a contrast of fusion and separate compartmentalized areas. MIKU's rhythm guitar is very interesting. I love her 3 big strokes in verse 2.

Band-Maid doing Band-Maid things! You kinda know what to expect, but you also completely don't 😉🤘

Мне понравилось🎉🎉🎉❤ Спасибо за реакцию Даниэль❤

I’m struggling to pick this one apart. I feel like Miku’s guitar is kind of in the same lane as Misa’s bass, and I can’t make out the details as easily as usual. Hope we get a good live mix soon.

First listening: Uninspired made to order, heard it before. Second listening: Not one of their best. Repetitive with a weak melody, but great drum/bass. Third listening: Maybe not as bad as I first thought, but still not one of their best. Fourth listening: Nice groove! Fifth listening: I think I get it! Sixth listening: It is actually very good! Seventh listening: OK! It's another mater piece! Thereafter: I FREAKING LOVE IT!

There have been multiple Band-Maid songs that were written for an anime that I think are cool but not what I love about Band-Maid which is more of the Classic Heavy Rock sound. Band-Maid do multiple genre that I really like.

👍👍 try HAGANE / 天下五剣 omv🎻
