Also check out my first reaction to EL ESTEPARIO SIBERIANO! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kLGgabGVybiYeIE.html 🔥🔥🔥

There is no man or woman inside that suit. There is only the pure, unholy spirit of metal

When you’re a death metal drummer but it’s your little brother’s birthday

"Why do you need a double-kick for a kids show?" "You'll see"

"nothing too complicated" famous last words

The internet is in love with the idea that the guy in this suit is a pro but has fallen on hard times and been reduced to performing for kids in an animal costume. Little does the internet know that being a beast at drums while wearing a costume is this guy's entire shtick! He's Nyango Star, and he's not overqualified, he's doing exactly what you expect him to do if you hired him to perform at an event! ;)

He went from joking and mocking to speechless in a second

I also just love that no matter how fast it got, he STILL STAYED ON BEAT TO THE SONG!

Shes Nao, a drummer from a japanese metal band, she saved her town whit her talent.

The host woman on the left deserves her own reaction video lol

She’s actually cracked… playing the drums at that level inside a mascot suit 🔥

Love Nyango Star, an apple with the spirit of a dead cat. Because of course that makes sense 🙂 Like many (official or unofficial) mascots, he's promoting his prefecture, which grow a lot of apples. The Japanese country side has a lot of elderly people and the younger generation moves to the cities, so their is a real issue. Nyango also plays the most difficult drum songs by Babymetal and X-Japan, etc. all without blinking 🙂 The name is an amalgamation of Nyan which is cat, a reference to the famous drummer Ringo Star, and ringo means apple in Japanese.

Because japanese metal scene has some of the best drummers. You should watch Reizi (Dexcore) and Kanta (Deviloof) playing Dexcore's Dragout together. And then them doing same with Deviloof's Dusky Vision.

That switch into the blast best had me laughing so hard the first time I heard it. That is some legit drum chops.

Reminds me of choir we had a jazz drummer, but he was out sick, so a student who was a metal drummer filled in and we all got laryngitis trying to sing over his drumming during rehearsal & we had to stop because he was drumming in the classroom too loud. 😂

a tiny japanese woman invoking the unholy spirit of metal possessing a cat possessing an apple

Can I just say I looooooove that you said "him or her" 😭 Thank you for acknowledging that girls can rock out too ❤

I'd love to see a super dark and heavy metal band that all played dressed in cutesy kids show costumes exactly like this lol I think it'd work!

Pro tip: When you see a Japanese person holding a clipboard, and nodding, it means everything is going exactly according to plan.

This show is Anpanman which is a preschool show. Imagine someone rocking out like this to the Barney theme song!

That mascot is Nyango Star. He's a mascot helping a region in Japan that grows apple. The region eventually became a famous booming business because of him. He's like the ambassador of every apple farm in Japan now. Respect. What a legend.

LMAO they activated their bankai at 1:54

Apparently the drummer is Nao Kawakita from maximum the hormone.

That suit is to contain him somewhat, otherwise the universe would implode

Can you play drums for my kid's party? Drummer: yes(evil smile)

Best comment under the original video;, not my words: "When you are Metal as fuck, but still got to pay the bills" 😂

"That was an aggressive roll there." I'm sitting here cracking up waiting for the reveal. Buddy, you had no idea what you were in for. The gloriously ridiculous juxtaposition of the kids song to the hardcore metal drumming technique is amazing. And I've been in suits like that before. That person is so skilled to be able to do that in that getup. LOVE IT!!

I'm pretty sure this is the drummer to the Japanese metal band called Maximum the Hormone. She is an absolute beast. The band has some famous tracks. They even did some music for the anime Death Note.

The mascot is actually in a band, full mascot band. The bass player is a Kappa (Japanese river monster), a purple cat bat thing and a caramel

When you failed the audition for a band and set out to prove why they were wrong to not hire you.

This is by far the best reaction to this i have seen yet. I loved watching your face as things revved into high gear.

When your drum coach was Kenshiro... Drummer: Omae wa mou shindeiru. Lady in the striped jacket: NANI?! *stage explodes*

He could feel those transitions with his very soul. XD

The wide stance at the end was for power.

of all the reaction videos I've seen, yours is absolutely one of the best examples of fair use. This genuinely bothers me that so many creators give such low tier effort to their posts, but you've done your job on this one

"It is what it is!" Then that look at 1:45...

The part that always makes me burst out laughing is when he finally goes full blown speed metal beat and all you hear is him smashing the shit out of the hi-hat.

Dude, you are mad funny, I had a huge grin on my face watching this whole video. Instant subscribe!

Nao is a beast of a drummer and if you've watched anime like Death Note, you've definitely heard her band's songs!

100% the equivalent of when Marty McFly goes off on a guitar solo in "Back to the Future".

In Japanese folklore this is the spirit of metal inside a costume.

Japanese metal is the most different then anything in the other world

Nyangostar=Nya(meow in japan)+ringo star(beatles drummer)

Dude even played a bit of punk 😂😂 loved it

That video is sooooo hilarious 😂 dude plays a kids song but starts jamming like a maniac and makes it just epic. I laugh so hard to this video

To quote a comment from the original video: "She brought a double bass to a kids concert..... peace was never an option!"

I love how everything is slowly escalating to madness

It was INSANE year's ago. And it is 'STILL' INSANE today .. so happy to revisit this🤣🤣. Unbelievable.

The Editing is Masterfull lmao

That was one aggressive drum roll there... 5 seconds later: Dear God......

As someone who’s not a drummer, I can’t help but click to watch this video every time it comes up. Who else but Nyango Star?!

he switched up real quick when nyango went god mode 💀

1:54 “ahhh sounds like the cocaine is setting in"

The best bit is, apart from the raw energy, is it's so clean. Anyone can make chaos, but this is order.

Drummer experiencing an existencial crisis due to a very metal drummer gal/guy being able to blast those beats all the way to heaven in a mascot suit XD

The restraint at the beginning. Being in a restrictive, full costume that long is hard enough, playing drums like that isn't easy either. To do both at the same time is amazing.

The song is called “Anpanman March”. You should read the translated lyrics of that song he’s playing. These Japanese children’s shows are wild.

I just turned 67. I swear this is only the third time in my life I laughed so hard I cried. I needed a dozen kleenex after just to clear my sinuses. It's the most unexpected thing I've seen in years and I absolutely loved it.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aLiBgpx0mtrJgGQ.html - Just reacted to "this drummer is at the wrong gig" Would be honored if you gave it a watch! Thank you for the amazing support! :)

I got hammered one night at a visit with old family in MS. I was drummer at time for a few FL metal , jazz fusion bands. I had just moved back home to Biloxi ...met my family aunt's and uncles at a dive bar where a country band was playing. They asked if anyone wanted to sit in. They said ...this one is a bit funky. Watch for the breaks. It was one of those poppy older disco ish country tunes I cannot remember the name but...Talk about love , or something. Reminded me of shake your booty. . Hahaha. So I started as one may expect. 16th hats open on accents beating each accent open with bass kicks then started adding drags on the hats closed here and there. Then ending each phrase with a rough or double kick to snare and splash. Anyway eventually hit the ride and hat work together ...had a blast. People were freaking out ...hahah. The dude that owned the kit original member came to get his sticks...he was pissed off. The kit , the heads were dented and the chain driven old hat stand was stripped. I offered him money but he said no. Never ever again will I touch his kit. So then oddly enough. The bassist and guitarist came and had a beer with me and we set up a little jam session months later as it turned out they loved fusion. So we had a little few months we'd get together and jam. You know the type. Anything goes just alot of fun. Hahahahah that's what this reminds me of. I believe all of us drummers have been in a situation where we just sat in and went nuts. Hahahah

I like the thick fat precise sound of the "normal/easy" parts, more than the faster ones 😄😄 the melody is also so happily hilarious ahah 😄😄

Dude your response to this was amazing because it is exactly how I reacted haha

That transition into metal never ceases to make me lose it

Kids theme park management be like: Is that our new drummer? 🤣🤣🤣

i have watched this video to many times and those blast beat still get me every time.

I love showing people that video, especially drummers, and watch as they slowly get more and more impressed...

You really don't know about this band?.. They're known as Mascot metal in Japan, their name is Charamel.. Their live shows are wild. They always start with childrens songs then progress into metal, their guitarist is absolutely great. And yes, they all appear on stage dressed like this.

'Hold those Japanese horses' 🤣

That costume is just his limiter so the drum not get destroyed

"I always wonder what I did wrong, turns out I'm not wearing a costume." I mean, it worked for GWAR.

Ive never seen such children song that is SO EPICC!! The drummer was ALL OUT while the person over there is just doing a mini gesture!! Commented on 20 April 2024

This makes me incredibly happy every single time I see it

i always suspend my disbelief when i see nyango star. for a brief moment it’s just metal magical :D

Lmfao I literally just saw this for the first time today, I can die in peace now 😂😂

singer: sings about something happy drummer: 🦵🥁🦵🥁🦵🥁🦵🥁🦵🥁🦵🥁🦵

Rumor has it the person in the apple cat suit is a man named Kidachi Daisuke or a woman named Nao Kawakita. The song is the Anpanman theme song. An extremely popular Japanese children’s show.

The single funniest thing with it - she always stays in tempo!

It's not a Suit. It's a containment vessel for the souls of the damned.

"That was one aggressive drumroll there" Oh, My sweet summer child

Oh man! You've got the same reaction that I had when I first watch this exact vid!!! I even cried a little!!! Nao is crazy great. She's not in another level, she's in another universe! Glad I'm not the only one that got my mind blown away!!!🤯😇

Nyango Star is also in a mascot character band called CHARAMEL (character metal).

LMAO your facial expression was epic!!!🤣

I love this guy's reaction!!! So awesome Stay awesome bud!

That video never gets old.

The kids: MOM THIS IS ROCK MUSIC The mom:wth

TY for making a reaction to this😂

He has been real quiet after this dropped!!! Fr

That video is so dam good. I watch it when I need a pick-me-up.

Nyango star. A deceased cat spirit trapped in an apple.

It's the first time I watch a drum session 20 times in a row marvelous good work great talent actual musical content

His pride destroyed immediately and became a fan 🤣

日本の地域のマスコットがこんな世界に知られるなんて……驚きを隠せない……

3:10 astroboy style... 👍

The character that you see here is Nyango Starr. He is a mascot for a small town in Japan. Unfortunately, I forget the drummers name. I remember reading somewhere that they actually played drums for Baby Metal.

„Why’d you bring extra drumsticks? It’s only a kids song, what could go wrong?“ „Umm… yes.“

No joke this vid makes me want to learn how to play drums. If this guy, in a full mascot costume, can do this, what’s stopping me, someone with a little musical talent (I play piano and viola :)) from playing drums without a mascot costume on?

"when the drummer is paid 100x the singer's payment" :

I just love this. I love this so much

I never tire of this video. Never ever. 😂😂

I kinda dig the instructor......
