🎵🎸Moody, atmospheric, instrumental, one-man-band prog? Right this way 👇 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9SHmJaYxJ3UoXU.html

They put out 4 albums in 4 years. Straight fire all of it. Best band in 40 years...maybe ever.

This band will simply amaze you every time you see them, best to come around in decades! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂

Kanami (Lead Guitarist/Songwriter/Arranger) writes many of her songs in piano first and often speeds it up for a band arrangement. Piano was her first instrument that she learned from a very young age and got into guitar during highschool. Btw she looks upto Carlos Santana as a guitarist.

Funny, when other reactors listen to Band-Maid, they tend to point out different genres or different decades they hear throughout any given song. You point out different bands, which is cool. It just goes to show how B-M changes things up in any given song so it's always fresh. There will be times when the bassist is playing funk, the drummer is playing punk, the rhythm guitarist is playing rock, the singer is singing pop and the lead guitarist is playing metal. But it all works so well. One fantastic example, I think, is their song, "Different". But really, you can't go wrong with any Band-Maid video (or live video). And they keep getting better. Their new album is so progressive. No official videos for "Giovanni", "No God" and "Black Hole", but they're incredible (and they're on KZfaq).

Thanks for reacting, formed in 2013 by Rhythn Guitarist and vocalist Miku Kobato. Seven Major releases so far three mini albums and four full albums with the last released Digitally on the 13th January this year With a Physical release on the 20th January. The idea behind the band is the contrast between the visuals and then the sound and also the sound and the lyrics. Members (ages between 24 to 30) Akane Hirose ;- Drums (A-chan. the beast,Gorilla) Saiki Atsume :- Vocals (Sai-chan) MISA :- Bass :- (the Assasin. Misa, Misa, Misa) Kanami Tono :- Guitars (Mincho, main songwriter) Miku Kobato :- Rhythm Guitar, Vocals, Lyricist (Small Pigeon, wide shoulders, strong grip, Karuppo) Kobato in Japanese can be interpreted as small pigeon and Miku never met a pun she didn't like or a chance to mess with peoples heads Po!!. Also they have a slightly twisted sense of humour, for example the single Alone was released on Valentines day, and for the last two years on April fools day they rename themselves, the bands social media as Band Maiko where they dress as apprentice geisha's and release a video of a song written in the geisha dialect with some traditional instruments in it. Relentless live band due to having played basically anywhere they could plug in they also tend to add extra parts to the songs live , The costumes might have got their foot in the door but they have earned what they have gotten the old fashioned way, Worked hard, Toured hard, and constantly look to improve.

Nice reaction and analysis, i always appreciate an reaction from ppl who knew what they are talking about, there is always something to learn... If you want another instrumental i can provide an link if you want, otherwise just check their official videos on KZfaq, they rarely ban them, because they also enjoy to watch reactions or covers from other ppl... Domination, Play, Freedom, Real Existence live are always a good choice, for an high octane guitar solo Blooming MV... Greetings from Germany!

_Band Maid_ is a breath of fresh air. For many of us who are musicians, we watched music get hijacked by the talent-less.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single BAND-MAID song. Anything BAND-MAID does live is fantastic, thanks to their charisma, energy and all the different additions they make to various songs. Or you could try the 'Thrill', their first music video, and then compare and contrast that with something new, like 'Manners' or 'Warning'. Bon voyage!

Thanks for reacting to my favourite band ! I see others have given you the history so I would just like to say I really enjoyed your reaction. Maybe my love of U2 is why I love Band Maid so much, I too hear The Edge in the delay and tone of Kanami's guitar. I would suggest you may like to react to 'Manners' next or my favourite Band Maid song 'Blooming' but most of all I wish your Band Maid journey is as enjoyable as it has been for me.

Theres a ton of people reacting to this band now, and Ive seen most, but ACE job mate. Loves your intro too. Lots say they are misicians, but you showed it and the playing was great! Thanks for the smart and really well versed review. That 5/4 Tempo is a mind twister every time. Miku gets overlooked on Rhythm guitar alot. Play that part... OMG, its makes you head hurt keeping the timing lol BTW.. I rarely subscribe, but you should have thousands! Im certainly wanting to see and learn more.

Love how technical your reaction to this song is. As you journey through Band Maid's catalog, you'll notice how complex and different each song is to the next. They put a ton of effort into changing each verse and chorus as to keep the songs interesting and full of surprises. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Great job. These girls are in a league of they own writing and playing rock music. They masterfuly play any style of rock music (funk, pop, hard, prog, metal..) and they use to blend them in their songs. Lead guitar and main composer: Kanami Tono Drums: Akane Hirose Rythm guitar, main lyricist and founder: Miku Kobato Bass: MISA Vocals: Saiki Atsumi Their last LP is Unseen World (Jan 2021). I think you would enjoy their song Manners (that belongs to that LP). Thank you.

Great reaction, thank you! What to recommend depends on what you want to hear. For speed, Warning! or Different. For heaviness, Rinne or After Life. For a ballad, Daydreaming or About Us. For groove, Manners or Bubble. For a general hard rock sound, Dice or The Non-Fiction Days. For live, Domination or Real Existence. Enjoy!

Great to see the reaction, loved your takes as well!! Looking forward to some more! 🤘🤘🤘

Lots of good info so thanks. I am from the old days of Deep Purple and Zeppelin so your insights keep me updated to modern times and you have very interesting inside scoops since you are a musician. I learned a lot and while listening to Band-Maid made your video extra special.

One of the best rock instrumental ever. Nice that you are pointing out the styles that Kanami, the lead guitarist, is channeling . I know she has great influences from guitarist like Carlos Santana. But, one of the things that has drawn me to BAND-MAID is the style of the guitar riffs and tone. I agree it does have the sound of The Edge, Satriani and even some Angus Young with some riffs and Eddie Van Halen with the taps. Thanks for the reaction and hope you do more BAND-MAID in the future as you have only scratched the surface of this very talented band.

Thanks for all the band suggestions!

Bout ye...enjoyed your review and cool breakdown of a great tune, talented ladies for sure, you have a long, enjoyable road ahead of you. Nice comment on the 4/5 time, always a bit of a melter! These ladies are stellar musos with a top tier vocalist and superb songwriter/arranger, welcome aboard the Band Maid Bullet Train. Nice fret-work in your intro btw..

I'll let others give you the band's history but, seeing as you liked this track, could I suggest you take a look at the live versions of Freedom, Domination, Play and Real Existence for starters? I don't think you'll be disappointed with any of them!

I've seen so many reaction videos to this song, and not a single one of them picked up on the 5/4 time signature! Kudos to you mate for pointing this out! Hope the ladies of BM explore their proggy side a bit more in future songs. Looking forward to watching more of your reactions to BM.

Nice reaction JW. How refreshing to hear someone who knows what they're talking about and breakdown a song so it's understandable for us layman. They have so many MV's and Lives on their Official KZfaq channel that you can just pick anyone next. But let's go with Warning! next. Then Domination Live. That should cement you in for life.

More peeks at an important, transformational group known as Band-Maid. Three things I think you'll find fascinating with this group; 1) the deeper you dig, the more you'll appreciate the members authenticity, writing and musical sensibilities; 2) your favorite song will generally be the one you're currently listening to; and 3) why does it seem they have no bad songs? Band-Maid has plenty of bad songs, according to one of their interviews. It's just that they threw them all in the dumpster and only released 114 (to date) of their most awesome songs. This disciplined integrity is one of the things that keeps them at the top of the rock pile. Thx John!

I have to throw out a bit of a brag :) I was lucky enough to be at the first performance of this song at Nagoya Diamond Hall on 4/4/2018. A friend and I had gotten tickets and were making a side trip from Tokyo to see the show that evening. We had tickets like 150 and 151 or so, out of 800, meaning we'd likely be a bout a quarter way back from the stage in the venue. I ran into a facebook friend there, and he had an extra ticket 'cuz a friend couldn't make it. He asked if I wanted the extra; it was ticket 25. So, I ended up on the rail. At that point, this song had not appeared on any single or album, no PV, and had never been performed on stage. When it started, you could tell fans (and myself) were like, "WTF is this!?!?" But, people went nuts for it really fast. This video was filmed on 4/13/2018 at Zepp Tokyo. My facebook friend had an extra ticket to this show, too, he was willing to give me, but me and my travel buddy were going to be in Osaka that day, and out flight back to the USA left the next day. So, unfortunately, I had to miss it. But, if I had know that they were going to make a DVD out of this show, I would have found a way to be there, regardless of the inconvenience.

Please next LOVE BITES Swan Song live

I like how you mentioned CHON, I'm pretty sure you listen to Elephant Gym and Tricot too. Band-Maid is the best at what they do. They have many of us buying cds again, learning instruments and listening to rock again.

The band was formed by Miku Kobato, the rythmn guitarist (who didn't know how to play guitar when the band started, she was a violinist), Kanami Tono is the lead guitarist and she is just amazing, and she taught Miku how to play guitar. Kanami writes the music and Miku writes the lyrics. Misa, or as everyone calls her Misa, Misa, Misa plays bass and is a singular talent and her background is as a cellist. The drummer Akane Hirose, is just unreal by any stretch of the imagination and is integral, along with Misa in setting the table for the band. The lead singer, who wasn't in this video, is Saiki Atsuma, who joined the band when Miku, who was going to be the lead singer, knew she didn't have the hard edge for hard rock and set up auditions and the rest is history. There is so much more of Band-Maid to see and hear. They also have an alter-ego band called Band-Maiko (Maiko is the Japanese term for a geisha in training), which does songs that relate to the geisha culture in Japan. They put out one or two songs a year and they are excellent.

Check more of their songs, Kanami is the name of the lead guitarist and is also the composer. If you got the Van Halen and Satriani vibes you really need to listen to more songs as she has riffs reminiscent to other guitarist. In fact I think what draws so many people to their music is that they make this sort of hard rock revival where they bring back the sound of a lot of classic hard rock bands but with their own spin so it still feels like something new and yet something very reminiscent to 'classic rock' so to say. Then with their latest releases their still pushing their music and sound forward and as good as they are I think they're getting better!

Nice, glad you liked them👍 I recommend the song manners by band maid. They get groovy on this song. For another band, I recommend nervous by while she sleeps.

Fantastic band! Love all the song by Band-Maid. Enjoy!

Ayy man just found you a few days ago, and wanted to suggest a song in a bit of a different wheelhouse compared to rock/metal, but still amazingly talented musicians: Snarky Puppy - Lingus. I believe everyone should experience that song (and mind you that whole album), at least once in their life. Cheers!

Thank you for introducing chon. I did not know about them. Im listening right now, and i really love it.

You've done it now....you opened up pandora's box.

Domination live Feb 14th is my personal favorite, but a lot of people love "Freedom", great showcasing of Akane in it!

First Jinjer and now Band-Maid? You're only reacting to GREAT bands, I need to subscribe to your channel. You did another great review, and I can say that you really liked Band-Maid. You should react to "Freedom", "Domination" and my personal favorite "Blooming", the girls never disappoint.

MISA!!! MISA!!!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃 Badass Bass Assassin. I'm glad you picked a Live video 1st. B-M MV are very good but their Live videos are 10 times better because you see how talented these musicians really are and how much fun they have on stage with each other.

Great reaction. I liked the funky Nintendo and riff referances you assiociated with the song.

Next up, “Domination,” from the same concert. Then, for a total change in direction, “Wonderland” (also live version). I appreciate the musical insights; for example, pointing out the change to 5/4 time.

I'm sure Kanami, the lead guitarist and main songwriter gets inspiration from every song or sounds that she picks up and liked.👍she may not remember which one though 🤣

From JAPAN ■ Introducing BAND MAID and the latest news. (^^♪　★　They have over 100 fascinating songs. Thank you for Reaction BAND MAID. BAND MAID is a 5-member girls rock band. They are hard rock band and are now considered by fans to be one of the best hard rock bands in the world. They usually perform 23 songs and 2 hours live. They were formed in Japan in 2013 by side guitarist Miku Kobato. Kobato had experience working at a maid cafe in Akihabara Tokyo and had the idea of ​​playing cool songs with a maid costume. That's why the band was named Band-Maid. "Thrill" was their first music video in 2014, played 2 million times in two weeks and saved them from breaking up. At that time they were just around 19-22 years old. And then they have been doing LIVE overseas and increasing their fans. Now they are writing, composing and arranging all the songs. 35 songs have been released on their official KZfaq, all of which are killer songs. ★ The new song "Different" released in December last year has become the theme song for the anime "Log Horizon 3rd Season". ★ They released a new album 14 songs "Unseen World" in January 20 . ★ They released their latest music video "about Us" on February 19th. ★ On May 26th, they will release a DVD / Blu-ray of remastered online live 28 songs on February 11th + 5 other live songs.

Great insights! Blooming, Different, Manners, or Rinne. If you react to another live then Play Live is my recommendation. Freedom and Domination Live are great but have tons of reactions already

Subbed cuz you"re clearly both perceptive and knowledgeable. If you like Chon but you haven't hesrd Elephant Gym from Taiwan, you should check them out: mathy but with even more jazzy grooves. EDIT And yeah check out more Band-Maid because their range is huuuuge.

Great reaction. Always a pleasure to see a reactor who goes into why something is good. Other Band-Maid tunes to check out- the live versions of Domination, Play, Moritorium, Freedom, and About Us, and the MVs for Dice, Blooming, Rinne, and Manners. Also worth checking out are Lovebites and Wagakki Band. Finally, one piece of trivia on each Maid: Miku never played guitar before they made the video for "Thrill." The director wanted one of the singers holding a guitar and it ended up being Miku. Afterward, Akane 'suggested' that Kanami teach Miku to bolster the rhythm section. In six years, she went from wearing it as a neck ornament to getting her own solos. Kanami's stage persona is an idiot savant mad riffer with a room temperature IQ. She is actually a genius, and not just musically- she has a degree in Economics from Tokyo University (her parents insisted on her getting her degree before pursuing a music career). Akane drifted from instrument to instrument, dropping each as she mastered it. In high school, she tried the drums, and never looked back. Also, she is definitely NOT the band leader. Just ask her. And notice how quickly the rest agree with her. MISA'S stoic performance (focused, expressionless, rarely acknowledging the audience) and the bottle of bourbon on her amp were originally ways of coping with stage fright. These days, it's mostly just how the Barefoot Assassin rolls. Saiki is a huge train nerd and quite the fashionista. Rumor has it that she has a closet just for her sneaker collection.

100+ discography, your journey begins :)

You should check out freedom live next. There is a drum solo.

Bit late to the party, but big thanks for the thoughtful, insightful and generally interesting analysis of their music, new sub for that.

I am an older rock lover and found new joy in Band-Maid. Your opinion that they are a throwback to the 70s and 80s (even 90s) with a modern twist is right on. This is why I enjoy their music. It's new and nostalgic at same time. You are in my top 5 reactors. Your insight makes me appreciate BM more. I was impressed that you immediately picked up the 5/4 time change in Onset. Others reactors sensed the change but were not courageous enough to identify it. Please do more BM reactions. I'm sure Maidiacs will fill up your channel.

You should listen to more from them. That hane a big library of really good songs and you can choose almost any of them. But some tips is, domination, puzzle, play, freedom, manners, warning, thrill and Cross. The latest one, cross, is one of my new favourites of this band. Make sure you find the videos on their official KZfaq if you using KZfaq clips. It's good quality on the recordings there.

Nice reaction! Their other instrumental, "Without Holding Back" is also a great song. Oh, yes, if you're a Pianist/Guitarist, you should check out the video below. It's a Japanese all female metal band. 👉【LOVEBITES】MIYAKO Piano Solo『 Revolutionary Etude』『Swan Song』 Live at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo 2020

Thank you for nice reaction. I recommend Live "Turn Me On" (Zepp Tokyo) "DICE" (MV) & "YOLO" (MV) "Don't you tell ME" (Live)

This girls are great, and they have a big fanbase, so you would get a lot of suggestions what to react next. But, since you are playing guitar and piano, I would suggest you to check band Lovebites, They are also all girls band from Japan, and they play power/heavy/trash metal, with a lot of 80's metal influence (Iron miden, Judas priest, Metallica...). Main songwriter is Miyako, she is trained pianist, but for the last decade she play guitar to. To me, songs that are the best representation of what they usually do are Holy war, Thunder vengeance, When destinies align... Miyako loves to use classical music in their music, so you cen hear some Beethoven (Winds of Transylvania, Dystopia symphony), Sopen (Swan song, where the hole intro is Revolutionary etude), Rachmaninoff (Empty daydream). I hope you will enjoy.

Great Reaction Brother! You gotta do more of the Maids! The hardest working band in showbiz and the saviors of rock and roll! 8 years. 7 albums. Starting their 6th world tour. 100+ songs! And you haven't even heard the vocals. Pick a song! They don't have bad ones! Rock and Roll!😊😎🤘🤘🤘🤘

Band-Maid is simply the best Hard Rock band on the planet right now.

4:30 Chon Grow. I listened and likes it. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have watched you do JinJer and now Band Maid and love your honest and real opinion! Subbed your channel on all PS. I saw led Zeppelin live in 76 so been around awhile, Jinjer and Band maid are my favorites these days have all of both bands albums and am expecting a new band maid delivery in May I believe ! Keep up the great work JW I am watching..

Kanami, the lead guitarist, uses a massive pedal board. She has three different delay pedals through different electronic loops to give her the effects she wants.

The whole reaction scene is so watered down these days. 99% of reactors have NOTHING interesting to say. I'm glad I found someone else from the 1% that does. Excellent reaction sir. Keep up the good work. =)

Check out Band Maid's "Blooming" or "Warning!"

There are plenty of more great Band-Maid songs to react to. Pretty much any of their official live videos are worth watching, beginning with Domination. But as both a guitarist and pianist, you may also want to check out the Japanese all female metal band, Lovebites, and the live version of their song, "Empty Daydream", on which Miyako shows off her genius at both instruments in the same song. Other Lovebites songs where Miyako plays both instruments include Edge of the World, Epilogue, and in particular, Swan Song (watch this version that includes her Chopin intro and her own piano outro, with some fantastic guitar solos in between: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pJdynNijuM7VcoE.html)

Misa quickly became one of my favorite bassists, her bass tone is just amazing.

Please react to band maid - real existence, domination, play, secret my lips, dont you tell secret, freedom. OMG im going crazy with this band. Live performances please. Waaaay better than studio recordings.

Miss, the barefoot assassin on bass.....these girls rip......

Please react band maid freedom live

Very nice and pleasently technical reaction. You can‘t go wrong with any Band Maid song when chosing the next ti react to, but their newer releases are more complex than the early songs. And keep on checking the scene of japanese female rock bands. Band Maid is without doubt the point of the spearhead of the bands emerging to international attention, but there are a lot more great band and musicians to get to know. Musically, they are not always related, but many of the musicians are friends or played in a previous band together and it is all Rock or Metal music. So please check out Lovebites (Edge of the World or anything from the official channel), Nemophila (Oiran), Aldious (We are), Mary’s Blood (Veronica), Doll$Boxx (Shout Down), Fate Gear (7 Years Ago) and so many more...

Welcome home!

Man, I'd love to hear your opinion on their song Black Hole. It think it might be their heaviest yet.

I think you are getting those Nintendo game vibes because many of the memorable games were developed and composed by the Japanese to include Ninja Gaiden. There may be something cultural driving the musical similarities that is very nuanced.

holy shit. That ninja gaiden song is SO CLOSE to this "echoed hook". hahahahah mind = blown

Miku doesn’t get enough credit for her rhythm guitar playing. She really fills out the sound under Kanami.

Sub! More please! Please react to their another instrumental titled "Without Holding Back" You'll like it more than Onset 🙏🙏

Thumbs up, another great reaction. You mentioned Kanami using a PRS. She talks about her experience with the PRS guitar in this video. It's not really all reaction worthy, but it's fun to listen too, and parts of it might be reaction worthy. Here's it queued to the right spot: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e56UnpOgtpzIe5s.html

Okay, now you know that they can rip your face off instrumentally, know this - they also have a kick ass lead singer!

Aeon Arcanum - Morbid Incarnation

A bit of Christian Borle to you around the edges. Not to worry about not talking too much about the drummer (Akane). The more you listen, you will.

If you want to hear a group that does crazy things with time signatures while still putting memorable hooks in their songs like Band-Maid does, listen to Tricot. Examples are おやすみ (Oyasumi) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/npipl6l5ysivl4U.html and DeDeDe kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZ1yocKiz7G6hac.html

Domination (Live) That comes next! Or Freedom (Live)

Next Lovebites please 🤘😊

Wow, I'm a bit late to the party on this one! You've probably gotten a truckload of suggestions for future BAND-MAID reactions from the BM Army, but I'll toss in my recommendations anyways: Live: BAND-MAID / Choose me (Official Live Video) BAND-MAID / DOMINATION (Official Live Video) BAND-MAID / FREEDOM (Official Live Video) BAND-MAID / Play (Official Live Video) BAND MAID / REAL EXISTENCE (Official Live Video) Music Videos: BAND-MAID / After Life BAND-MAID / Warning! BAND-MAID / Manners BAND-MAID / Dice BAND-MAID / 輪廻 ( RINNE ) BAND-MAID / Blooming

Hmm should be interesting of a review of Asterism / Rising Moon (MV to start with). Also instrumental!

Reaction Request: Heilung-Krigsgaldr-LIFA

There are. Few lists of fav songs by this band by fans. I compiled them, there are 75 songs in different lists! 75! There’s a recent 25 best of Band Maid culminating in Bubble. My list is very different and on top I have Puzzle, live version. Not on YT anymore.

FYI, Second guitar counter melody over the tapping is a click track recorded by the lead guitarist.

Welcome to the world (aka: Rabbit Hole) of Band Maid! You will become a MAIDIAC! Resistance is Futile! You will learn soon enough that these ladies ROCK! They are a very talented group. They are all well trained in various instruments. There is not a bad song from BAND MAID KANAMI TONO - LEAD GUITAR - plays PRS Custom 24 - Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier. - Writes the music (one interview she states that she has a database - 2 years worth?!?!) Miku Kobato - RHYTHM GUITAR - plays Zemaitis C24MF - EVH Amps - Writes the lyrics - Has only been playing guitar for about 7 years. Was the singer but took a back seat voluntarily! Misa - BASS GUITAR plays Black Cloud "Smoker" and Privat Reserve (SG Style) bass - Orange AB200B MKIII Amps Akane Hirose - DRUMS - Plays TAMA drums with Zildjian Cymbals - Roland KD-A22 Saiki - VOCALS - Sennheiser microphones and DPA Microphones

You can see some of gear they use here equipboard.com/band/band-maid Except for Saiki (the vocalist), they all use sponsored gear. FYI: Miku, the guitarist on the left, is endorsed by Zemaitis, and her signature model (Zemaitis A24MF-FP) is on sale two weeks ago. Only 50 were produced and all of them have been sold. You may interested to check it out. It's a work of art👌

Try NO GOD. I'ts pretty crazy.

Have you heard of the instruMENTAL band Ozric Tentacles? Progressive psychedelic rock. Am going to check out Chon now.

Best I've heard from them so far (listened to quite a lot of reactions but they never made me feel like really diving into the band...) Just please don't go too deep into any rabbit hole that some (loads of) fans of e.g. this band or Nightwish would urge you to do... 😉

Good review. If you like Band-Maid then have a listen and watch a Japanese female metal group called ALDIOUS and view the song / video WE ARE.

Satritana, Nintendo...👍

If you like Band-Maid, try DOLL$BOX. Pick any song.

MISA MISA MISA! the second guitar track doing the counter melody is a pre recorded track Miku the rhythm Guitarist is only now coming into her own as a musician, she only started playing guitar AFTER the Band had formed as she was the original lead singer (for 2 moths approx before they recruited Saiki)

Thanks for the reaction, some good insights. The 'that bit reminds me of a bit in another song' would seem to be the most basic form of analysis...though it's the most common thing offered on youtube.

Bro, check out also LOVEBITES, all Japanese female Heavy Metal Band live at Zepp Diver City Tokyo 2020 songs Raise Some Hell, Break The Wall, Holy War, and their latest MV Glory To The World, Winds Of Transylvania.... :)

Can you react to “I feel bad” by Nick Nittoli I’m a huge fan of this dudes music! Thanks

音、旋律に敏感な貴方ならお判りと思いますが、彼女達の旋律のそこかしこに、綺羅星の様に神曲だらけのアニメソングのエッセンス遊び心が入って居る事を。菅野よう子の攻殻機動隊と壊滅の刃の梶浦由記のアニソンや初音ミクなど引き出しが多いのです。

Don't you think it's a masterpiece？

Folklore is that this song was invented so that singer SAIKI could go to the toilet. Maybe chon could find an opening.
