    @9.49. There's the announcement that M2C will be performing as a 4-piece due to Akane being ill. She's shown as Akane Hirose (Butter) . Any idea what Butter refers to - is it a mistranslation of Drummer ?)

    Who would have thought that she was alone in the school circle! And the fact that she found the strength to continue is something incredible! I admire her! Like the rest of the BAND-MAID members.
    Thank you for finding and adding special guests to the video - it's so cool! And a special thanks for all the old videos of Akane's performances.
    And of course many thanks to Casper Michaels for voicing the video.

    Before the videos of the ladies, they should actually show a warning saying 'CAUTION: HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS', because that's what it is. I don't know how many times I caught myself grinning after seeing Akane smile. Even at moments when I didn't feel like it at all. There aren't many people who can do that to me almost every time. And the fact that she's non-stop, taking on one challenge after another, and making the result of it look so effortless, I find deeply impressive and inspiring. ✨

    Wow! What a great documentary about one of the very top tier drummers playing today. Akane's skill set is unbelievable and the way she is able to seamlessly integrate her drumming to expertly serve the song is nothing short of breathtaking. She makes it all look so deceptively easy and fluid that there can be a tendency to forget just how amazingly well she performs with the rest of her outstanding bandmates on stage. But listening to Akane's intricate patterns and expression of emotion while augmenting the other band members instruments reveals a true joyous master at work.

  • @realdocloco

    Once again a wonderfull and acurate work. One more thing to add is about her drum kit: many would judge it "small" if you compare with some of the huge drumkits many rock drummers are using. But it makes what she does with it even more impressive - if possible! Oh ... and I want to hear her playing trombone once in my lifetime, even a few notes - not you?

    Akane is the backbone of this incredible talented band! No doubt about that... In many ways, socially, musically and is the "speaker" of this band with MIKU and it is important to have such people in an group, i do not only appreciate her drumming skills, i also appreciate her as a person and that tells IMO a lot about Akane.

    And then you have Black Hole. I'd like to add that the rhythm of Akane's bass drums combined with Misa's growling, funky bass guitar, gives Band Maid their weight and power. It's a huge part of their sound and the pair complements each other perfectly. The spirits of John Bonham and Chris Squire live on in Band Maid and are smiling down on these extremely talented ladies.

    Got hooked on Band Maid and Akane's drumming when I first heard Glory. Bought Conqueror album, got to #7 track Wonderland..... to any drummer peeps out there, I've never heard in all my 38 years of life and 24 years of drumming what I heard her play going into the third chorus. Who else but Akane could ever just bang out 16th notes on the crashes, as if they were the snare drum and make it work. It takes a beautiful, musical and either bold or crazy mind to actually make that idea work as well as it does.

    This is super interesting. Nao influenced not only Akane (from Band-Maid) but also Tamu Murata (Nemophila) also sites her as an influence. There is a TH-cam video of Tamu getting to meet the band and possibly play with them . Seems Nao has influenced many young drummers, and rightfully so. She is a fantastic drummer. Without Nao, Maximum the Hormone would have a very different sound. And, that big red round mascot would never play the drums.

    Once again an excellent documentary! I look on these videos as a gift to all the Maidiacs and to the Maids themselves!

    @15:48 Akane's "goofing around" is serious stuff. She can totally sing too !

    Yeah I think most people don’t realize that Akane only started drumming when she was 17/18? She started late, but that certainly didn’t handicap her in anyway!

    Officially the most cheerful drummer in the world.
    Anyone who can use disco and jazz style drumming in a hard rock song of three to four minutes like Akane does and have it sound like she does, is not just a drummer.
    Even the other members say that they noticed her evolution over the pandemic period where she basically re-taught herself to increase her speed, power and efficiency.
    Like all the other members she is a favourite of mine.

    Thanks oncec again-great overview. My admiration for Akane started out high, and grows every time I listen to her hitting those skins! I'm sure experts can argue that this or that drummer is "better" than Akane but she's right up there, especially when you consider her perfect choices in every song the band performs.
