I recently saw Junna on her Instagram and had to check the screen name to figure out who it was because she had her hair down. She looked so different! In addition to playing for the band that would become Trident and now playing with Hagane, Junna was the drummer for Marty Friedman during one of his solo tours. He knows how to pick damn good musicians.
Junna is older than she looks, though that takes nothing away from her. She's already been in several bands, including Kakumei (which later became Trident after Junna left the band). Kakumei was founded in 2013 and she was probably around 18-20 then, so she must be 30 now. I love Junna but as others have pointed out, she sometimes overwhelms the rest of the band, which is something that Haruna, for example, would never do, though she could. Now, with Hagane, Junna may be in the right place, because Sakura is simply a monster. I certainly look forward to seeing how it goes.
nice reaction and Junna is fun to watch. There are some Haruna drum cam videos on TH-cam from their european concerts. Holywar and soldier stands solitarily very impressive. Also the fanvideos of those concerts. You´ll be surprized how agile they have been. I have seen them at Lindau Germany an enjoyed every moment. Keep Rocking!
She was a beast when she was with Trident, I still have those albums and still get blown away with her drumming, I always said if Haruna ever decides to hang up her sticks Lovebites needs to recruiter Junna for sure. She is a little firecracker that's for sure. If I'm not mistaken she was 23 years old on this video
you should definitely check out Tina S doing a guitar cover of this same song. Both Tina S and Junna are easily among the top guitarists and drummers, respectfully, of our generation.
I think Junna is 24 or 24yo here. I’ve watched this cover countless times, and it’s still terrifying. The picking-up-the-bottle in the PiP moment is a tribute to the “hold my beer” section in the original Dragonforce MV. I am looking forward to hearing more of her work with HAGANE. In the TRIDENT music I’ve heard, Junna is drumming too much and overpowering the music.
DragonForce's drummer said this was the best cover of this song he's ever seen. I've never seen Pau play anything this technical. The Warning is a good band of average musicians.
There are at least 30 to 40 Japanese female drummers who could cover this song better than Pau. And an equal number of Japanese all-female bands that are better than The Warning. Band-Maid did The Warning a big favor by granting them their desire to visit Japan and perform with B-M.
A force of nature…one of the best in the business and good to see Junna back in a band
This was 4 years ago. She is amazing ❤❤❤

At the time of this video, Junna was 24 years old.
She will turn 28 in September this year.
Close enough, she didn't turn 24 until 5 months after the video, but yup, 28 this Sept.
She fucking incredible

Monster. Absolute beast.

Junna 'the machine gunner'...she is incredible. Checkout some of her other covers.just subscribed.
Thank you for your sub!
Been awhile since I've seen this 1

When I first seen this video , I thought she like 15 years old
Junna is a prodigy, for sure!
She'll be 28 in September, meaning she was 23 in this video. Most everyone keeps getting her age wrong.
Guilty as charged...

And I thought Pau hits hard! Junna, pau, Akane, Haruna, and Yayoka, watch out guys, the girls are coming fast, don't get passed!
Check out Versailles Revenant Choir Yuki version
This is the drum cam for this song.
Another female drummer that's fun to watch is Meytal Cohen. She teaches drums.

Do Aldious We Are music video
she is scarier than Pau and that is saying a lot lol
Pau can cover this song better than Junna.

Music isn't a competition, and comparison is the thief of joy. Be smarter.
