OH WOW! Good to have you back! I remember watching your BABYMETAL reaction videos about 3 years ago! You've got A LOT of BABYMETAL videos to react to! 🤘🦊🤘
Welcome back, its been far too long.🤘Su is 25 now and she has just got better and better. Moa is 23 and the new third member (former Avenger Momoko who has been supporting Su and Moa as a dancer since 2019 and the only one of the three Avengers left since Feb/March 2020, now officially Momometal) is 20. This new album 'The Other One' is a concept album. They are not counting it as their 4th studio album, but more as an interim thing between the 3rd album and whatever will happen next with the "new BABYMETAL".🦊 As such (now you have seen 'Metal Kingdom', which is the intro track for the album and used for this epic theatrical opening number at the concerts they played at the end of January - their first in nearly 2 years) I would recommend you watch/listen to the songs in the same order as they are listed on the album ... but when you have heard the original version of 'Monochrome' (there is a lyric video for that one) I know for a fact that you will love the piano version that Su and Moa performed on The First Take channel. Amuse seem to have either turned over a new leaf or they are just being lenient for this album, but reactions to the songs and videos have been almost entirely free from being blocked or worse so far.
🤘👑 Good catch on the Moa/Yui thing. As far as the Kami Band is concerned, they always back BABYMETAL in live shows. According to the lore, Kami Band members are summoned to appear before each concert. There are two different "teams" of Kamis though. That started in 2019. The Kamis From the East (who performed at the January 28th/29th 2013 concerts this footage is from) are Takayoshi Ohmura and ISAO on guitars, BOH on bass, and Hideki Aoyama on drums. These musicians are Japanese. The Kamis from the West (who performed April 1st/2nd 2023) are Chris Kelly and CJ Masciantonio on guitars, Clint Tustin on bass and Anthony Barone on drums. All of these musicians are American. Make no mistake though, they are all Kamis.
Welcome back to the Foxhole and BabyMetal's metalverse 🦊🤘🌐 I don't remember following your BM journey but is always nice to see old BM fans and reactors coming back to hear more of them, this time returning with a more mature sound and a new BM side we've never seen before. A new official MV called Mirror Mirror is already out, you can also enjoy "Divine Attack - Shingeki" official visualizer, "Monochrome" official lyrics video and Light And Darkness official MV so far no one is having any copyright blocked issues so don't worry about it. This is why BabyMetal have no match among any other Japanese artists, top notch worldwide. Many more are finding Game Of Thrones resemblance on this stage setup, it looks insane. The ten apostles are holding crosiers with "The Other One" logo which is similar to the infinite symbol "OO" and is the title of upcoming 4th album. The girls are carrying some kind of trident similar to the Spear Of Destiny or Lance Of Longinus from Evangelion anime series, if you know MoaMetal you know you got be careful with her. 🔱 Here's some official info about this song: METAL KINGDOM (THRONE) _It is a powerful anthem ushering in the beginning of a new era while also representing the power and courage to step forward into uncharted territory. The track conveys imagery of one rising powerfully from the throne of silence, with a suitable fanfare announcing this new beginning._ At the end of January at Makuhari Messe they held two great live shows returning to the stage after almost two years. and by far they meet up my expectations with this epic live performance and top notch production. SuMetal and MoaMetal showing why they're a queen and princess deserving their thrones. The cinematic drone shots are just insane. We were expecting this live proshot version but the live sound is available at the official streaming at WOWOW and upcoming BD. We got so many big news and announcements, a new official member was announced last weekend when performing at PIA Arena MM in Yokohama during the Fox Day, Momoko Okazaki (the one who has been performing with them since 2019 all these years and latest live concerts) is the chosen one and she finally got her metal tag, say welcome to MomoMetal, we're proud of her and she really deserves it.🍑❤️ Also they performed with a new young BM mirror unit coming from another world of this metalverse, is unclear the full role on this but we're guessing they will sing some of their older kawaii metal hits in between these local concerts to give the girls a break and show another world of this metalverse they created. OTFGK. The Kami Band were located in the east side of the arena, but if you pay attention you can see some of them during this clip. You can find the official lyrics pinned in the comments. Thanks for sharing this and see you next time!🦊🤘👑
Nice reaction. I was wondering about the I'm sorry Moa in the tittle. Su's ability to grab your attention when she starts to sing is impressive. I'm always reminded of Moa's statement that when Su sings it's like an angel came down. Moa would know being one herself. Here we have the majestic return of the regal queen Su and queen Moa the leader of the royal guard. Starting off singing from her version of the Game of Thrown chair. Lyrically this song is another strong positive message song by them. A lot of which seems to be about going out there following your dreams. Go down your own Road of Resistance. Which I think is a big part of why this song reminds folks of that song. Especially that chanting part. As they have said Babymetal will always be on your side. They're supporting their own fans. How cool is that? Lastly every Babymetal fan must know. Watch the whole new album. Amazing stuff. And Momoko who was one of the avenger dancers is at long last. The new member of Babymetal. Finally, a trio again. Yui officially left in 2018 and had stopped performing with them in 2017. Due to health issues. But Yui made an official statement that she is leaving Babymetal in 2018. Why I bring this up? Is because I've read a lot of statements that Momoko is replacing Yui. Which IMO isn't so. After Yui left Babymetal was officially listed as Su and Moa. And have gone years as that. Su and Moa have said they think of Yui as family, and she will always be part of Babymetal. With that in mind. I think of Momoko as a new member creating a new spot for herself. And so far, doing a great job. They just did two shows on April 1st and 2nd. On the second day Momoko was given a mic. Where do they go from here? This is Babymetal. They go where they want to go. Which in this case means on tour. They're tour asia. and will be touring Europe with Sabaton and then they've announced a couple of music festivals in the USA. Many of us fans are hoping for more Babymetal show dates. Because for Babymetal it doesn't matter if it's a big epic show in Japan or a festival appearance or a small venue Babymetal always does the best they can. As a fan you can't ask for more than that.
@@ShadowRyu It's ok Michael, it happens a lot. Don't beat yourself up about it. It's just nice to see someone truly appreciate a band they haven't seen in a while. Very cool.
Hey! It's been a while from last your reaction to Babymetal. Glad that you comeback in the right time. This is one of the best year for Babymetal Fans (The One). Anyway, Welcome back to the Fox Hole, fellow Kitsune 🦊🤘
WOW! It's been a while. Welcome back! "METAL KINGDOM" is "just" the introductory theme of the new concept album THE OTHER ONE as well as a show opener. I see it as Queen Su-metal and Shōgun Moametal haranguing the hordes of kitsunes before the battle. This music video has the studio audio over the visuals from the concerts they performed last January at Makuhari Messe (probably from day 2). The live versions are out there, and they are 10 times better in my opinion. Remember that the Kami Band only appears on live performances. From now on, you will see Momoko Okazaki, stage name MOMOMETAL, as the third official member. Starting with "Mirror Mirror" official MV released just today. Until next time!
welcome back Michael-Metal, missed you bud and they way you feel the BABYMETAL, they can still draw tears, the new album is fire. and btw, if you want to have a real good cry, just watch them do Monochrome piano version on the First Take youtube channel.
yes, the stage!!.the hall was divided with a catwalk in the middle with a movable stage in the middle. which means that there are no "bad seats". and the special effects, the lighting and stage design (this time three thrones)...always breathtaking.
He just started the album, I would always recommend someone who hasn't been spoiled with the singles to listen to all tracks in the order they are meant to be listened to.
👍 👍 👍 Moa’s still there, it was Yui who left due to health reasons and Momoko Okazaki (also a graduate of Sakura Gakuin like Suzuka and Moa) was officially named the third member on April 1. Until next time.
The whole album is awesome. I recommend listening to it as it's mean to be listened to which is in order of the song list. Amuse has been really lenient with allowing people to react to the album. Strikes are really rare and probably accidents on the YT algorithm's part. There's a live Wowow broadcast of the January concert this footage is from, but it will probably get blocked. That's still the Kami band.

The apology was for mistaking her for Yui
@@ShadowRyu I realized while watching the video. Just most wouldn't have admitted it in the video tittle. Very cool if you to do so.
@@ShadowRyu It's ok Michael, it happens a lot. Don't beat yourself up about it. It's just nice to see someone truly appreciate a band they haven't seen in a while. Very cool.
Hi, Mike. I do remember your Babymetal journey and enjoyed your reactions. Thanks for inviting us along as you catch up on their new music.

It has. I posted a channel update explaining my absence. I'm back and look forward to continuing where I left off! Thank you!

Su's voice has actually gotten better. Check out the piano version of Monochrome on The First Take TH-cam channel, it's stunning.
He just started the album, I would always recommend someone who hasn't been spoiled with the singles to listen to all tracks in the order they are meant to be listened to.
Welcome back...and nice reaction! Looking forward to you checking out the new album...many surprised, for sure!
I'm glad you came back to React again.
Please enjoy BABYMETAL, which is about to start moving again.👍
👍 👍 👍
Moa’s still there, it was Yui who left due to health reasons and Momoko Okazaki (also a graduate of Sakura Gakuin like Suzuka and Moa) was officially named the third member on April 1.

I realized that halfway through the video lol

Hi from San Francisco California
Babymetal 🤘❤️
If you didn't hear Rondo of Nightmare with Mischiefs of God intro Budokan live
Su-Metal is 25 years old
There are live versions out there most if not all are from Fan cams. Also it was the first time drones were used for areal shots.
🤘🦊♪
see you😀
