Being a newish Babymetal fan of only a couple of months, I would've laughed before if you told me that I would gladly watch a middle school girls graduation, and get emotional about it. Yet here I am. These girls are so moving and inspirational. Moa giving Su a hug made me cry, so sweet.

It is especially poignant when you remember that Moa is an only child...and she really idolized "big sister" Su. Frankly. I think she still does.

I think Yui was the only one not to completely lose it during a message to Su...such a calm and collected young lady. I hope she's doing alright now.

Now I get why Moa wasn't left and wont left BM. At least by her own will.

Remember, when this happened, neither Su, nor Yui, nor Moa knew they would stay together as Babymetal...and Moa has a HUGE onesama complex for Su. She was really devastated by Su's "graduation." I am glad the three of them will always have their memories of those early days. (...and yes, Rinon was laughing...as Su said.)

Why, Buttons,. WHY???? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

You know, people might think, that this is something bad when the culture force that kids to be an idols, and that's probably a right way to think, but at the same time looking at, for example, Marina Horiuchi now, I see a perfect example of right chosen life path where Sakura Gakuin was an amazing place to start. I really hope that nothing creepy was happened during their education and I'm really glad that they're an example for all japanese kids, an example for how to be supportive to each other, for how to be a good friends, for how to express your honest feelings, for how to appreciate what was given to you and how to give to others. I don't know how it should be but I really think, that such examples is what we're missing in our western culture, and also why people in Japan are so kind and such beautiful-minded.

No I don't wanna cry!

Wonder which Babymetal fan didn't felt a tear when Moa gave Su a hug!!!

グラディエーショントスを歌った後のみんなの一言が聞きたくてきのうDVD注文した途端のこの動画...なんてこった...紅白でベビーメタルを見て以来ライヴDVD集めて、ついにここまで来てしまいました。この後世界のメタルクイーンになるなんて...ただただ感動。

Poor Moa at

It always makes me emotional to see Suzuka sing with her voice broken by emotion.

These moments, the speeches, diploma distributing, The Graduation Toss, the heartfelt thanks and words, all made this very special for me personally. Su-Chan fought like crazy to keep it together, and did well for the most part, but I'm sure once she got offstage she just let loose. I have said this elsewhere, but if you noticed Su-Chan literally threw herself into her performance of 'My Graduation Toss', she was actually headbanging to that song probably more than she would normally do when she is performing as Babymetal.

Why the hell am I watching this? Why do I like it? I'm so confused... and happy... and sad.

Oh man, now I’m all teary eyed, thank you Buttons. ❤

Absolutely love Babymetal and I never knew this video existed before tonight. What a special find (the speeches).

its really cool to see the director speak so highly of su and with such tremendous confidence that she would be alright and be a superlady.... 10 years later and she stabileshed herlsef as a Metal Queen that the world is starting to praise more and more

What a beautiful culture. Being a babymetal fan for about a year has put me in touch with Japanese culture!! I love them so much!!

There's so much to talk about in this, so wonderful memory of SG, but can we appreciate for a moment how mature YUI's speech is? 😳
