I really hope this 4th gen of Ladybaby finds their own sound and personality. Been watching them since the 1st gen (Ladybeard, Rei, and Rie) and I really feel like they peaked during the 3rd gen with Rie, Nana, Emily, and Fuka lineup. That was a special lineup but as I started with I really hope they find their own path to bring Ladybaby back from the void it has been in.
I agree the 3rd gen with Rie, Nana, Emily, and Fuka lineup was their best. I loved that line up and the music. If I had known their last show with that line up at The Liquid Room I would have flown out to Japan to be there. I will watch the newest generation of Ladybaby to see but as it looks now not going to be a favorite of mine.
Same here (fan since 2015). Ladybaby is rare to have caught lightning in a bottle twice with (almost) totally different lineups, and -- no disrespect to Rei -- the 3rd gen lineup with Rie, Nana, Emily, & Fuka is by far my favorite. Those four created something special. Still, I'm willing to give this quintet a chance. It also took time for LB3 to grow into the amazingly tight unit -- still friends to this day -- that did "Riot Anthem", "Endless End Hello", and "Misogi Island".
Never understood why the producers decided to pull the plug on Mark 3. That was the strongest line up with the best songs. Commercial suicide IMO. That line up set the bar. I have to see if Mark 4 can surpass that.
@@yeroun1974 I kinda got the feeling from live footage that Rie was tired and wanted a break, plus we know Fuka wanted to go to Uni, but it still came the f'k outta nowhere -- there WERE supposed to be a few "reunion" shows in 2020 starting with Emily's birthday in March and then a festival in May but Covid put a stop to that. Once PassCode hired Emily and then Rie & Rei finally made up, that was it for LB-3 ever reuniting onstage.
I just know the first gen. From Nippon Manju. Can you guys list down who are the 2nd and to the current gen. And if you have the time. Give me the songs that was released during those gens. If not, is it searchable in the internet?
Las otras tres Unidades de Ladybaby fueron lo máximo. Es muy difícil llegar a su nivel. Les deseo lo mejor y ojalá que si puedan llegar a ése nivel. Mucha suerte.
Wow, I had no idea so many girls auditioned for Ladybaby 4.0 😮 I will support the new lineup! Ei-chan is very talented. うわ〜、えいちゃんはもう歌が上手です！ このビデオと今後のビデオズに英語の字幕を追加してください。
I feel very proud of each of the new girls. I'm a fan of the group and will always support them. In such a big selection and with so much hard work from each one,
It's so sad to see people saying "this isn't LADYBABY, change the group's name" if you are a fan of the group, support them until the end, but don't belittle the hard work of each new member.
Talented girls, great singers, I was really surprised that their tone of voice was so similar to Rie, that's something to be proud of. and support girls
@@bokunoseida_roh9696 I found it kind of funny that Mia is apparently a Rie fangirl… and either she or Rem has a very Rie-style vocal tone. Even in this video, Ei, the youngest girl, shows SERIOUS talent… As for the rest, it's like commenters don't understand how long-running Idol groups work -- turnover is normal.
Those wanting English subs you can click the cog icon and auto-translate the Japanese ones to English.. but even the Japanese ones are missing for a large stretch in the middle of the video
Ich freue mich sehr, für die fünf Mädels, die es geschaft haben, sich beim Casiting durchzusetzen und zur 4. Genenration von Ladybaby zu werden. Zu gleich tun mir auch all die anderen Mädchen leid, die es nicht geschafft haben und vielleicht bei den endscheidenen Prüfungen einfach nur einen schlechten Tag hatten. Ich hoffe Sie können an die Erfolge der ersten drei Generationen anknüpfen. Und vielleicht auch mal nach Deutschland kommen.
Interesante la perspectiva de cada candidata previo a su elección y posterior nuevo Ladybaby, que bueno que dejaron el absurdo del arcoiris y se dedicaron más al aspecto musical, espero estas chicas puedan continuar evolucionando el género del Metal que BM creó y Ladybaby ayudó a expandir con Nipon Manju.
This is cool, but I feel sad for all those girls who did not make the cut! In this last decade alone it seems that becoming an idol is an aspiration of nearly every young girl in Japan! There is a lot of emotion there, plus their personal stories (which many of us never hear)! Love the new lineup, though! I hope all those who did not make it will continue to follow their dreams!
This is pretty much the “Making the Band/Danity Kane” approach. But which part of the ladies auditioned because they want to fill the shoes of Rie, Rei, Emily, Nana and Fuka (and look up to them, like Mia) and which part wants to be an idol in any group (and maybe didn’t know much about the band) and will do anything to make it?
Well, Mia is clearly a Rie fangirl (she has good taste, lol) and Sakura looks up to Emily, so that's 2 of 5… As for "big baby" Ei-chan -- she's 173cm tall -- does it really matter? Girl showed legit talent in this raw footage… Sena is an enigma, but Rem heavily implied she was a fan of LB-3… and Fuka _really_ likes her based on her tweets
Are you sh!tting me? Have you been living under a rock? He left in 2016, over seven years ago! He has his own project: BABYBEARD with 2 girls, Suzu and Mahri -- check that out instead of complaining here… The two original girls, Rie Kaneko & Rei Kuromiya, are performing together -- after 5 years separated -- as REIRIE
@@Wagoo Unfortunately, Suzu and Kotomi/Mahri -- nice girls though they be -- are not as talented as Rei or Rie despite being the same age as them, which means they can't make up for Beard's total lack of music skills.
@@Soufriere84 completely disagree - I saw BABYBEARD live earlier this year and Suzu/Kotomi did an excellent job. Their set included a “cover” of Nippon Manju, BABYMETAL’s Papaya, their original songs.. and had a staged wrestling match suddenly kick off halfway through the concert. It was very much like seeing the original incarnation of LADYBABY Obviously Rei and Rie have their own talents, (eg. Rei’s musicianship in Brats), but those aren’t relevant for bringing back the original band style that the label that owns LADYBABY tossed away
I dunno... Ladybaby always were way to gimmicky. Like, they took the Babymetal thing and took to another level (Ladybeard on the growling vocals), and it was cool for a while. But it got stale, and not as fun the next video. It got to a point I, personally, quit checking out. I just hope it has substance on their lyrics, this time. Metal mixed with idol music has a potential to influence an entire generation of little girls to be better people than the generation before. And It and left a sour taste in my mouth. after I finally translated the lyrics for Nippon Manju. Didn't like to see it was a commercial after all. Those lyrics in particular were disappoointing, because they were materialistic, shallow and brought really bad values, like "if you feel bad, hide it and fake a smile, so you can get gifts and goods!" and "It's a shopping mall! Be happy and buy stuff!"
LADYBABY has many songs with meaningful lyrics, as the group evolved throughout the years and different lineups. You should check out: God's Not, Generation Hard Knocks, School of Hard Knocks, Hoshi no nai sora, maybe even Riot Anthem, Misogi Island, endless End Hello and Shibuya Crossing.
@@HanyuuHOLO I'm gonna check them out, and definitely reply later with my uncalled 2 cents here. Love the polite and respectful tone of this conversation. Cheers from Brazil.
"Nippon Manju" WAS a glorified commercial (but not for what most think). But most of LB's music the lyrics mean a bit more -- "Agé-Agé Money" is about wage theft by executives, "God's Not" is about overcoming adversity through friendship, "Lady Baby Blue" is basically a lesbian anthem. There are a few LB songs with officially translated lyrics. Please check them out.
You're getting nowhere.. less and less views (30k on their debut which should be the big comeback lol), no english subs (if you don't care about us foreigners just say it), the new girls are very meh... just like in this video. Everyone was watching LadyBaby for Rei and Rie. At least now they have their new project and its so much more interesting than this.
@@TBsports27 Stuff it. Japanese is VERY difficult -- after years, even I don't know much beyond a few phrases, plus kanji is the devil. If Ladybaby wants to keep appealing to its international fanbase (its new management might not) then they SHOULD provide subtitles. That's what Korean companies do, and it works. It took Japanese agencies a LONG time to realize they either needed subtitles OR multilingual Idols (or both).
@@Soufriere84 So you won't take the time to learn Japanese but you expect someone else to go out of their way to learn a different language just to provide you with subtitles? C'mon.
@@TBsports27 I literally SAID I did, but learning a second language enough to understand on the fly takes years and ideally immersion. Plus, English is a mandatory subject in Japanese schools (6-years minimum, effectiveness varies) while the opposite isn't true. You're demanding too much of us and not enough of the people providing us with a "product". Do you also believe anime should only be watched "raw"?
They're pretty much using their platform and subscriber count to kickstart a new idol group.. presumably mixing idol and metal in the spirit of the old iterations - so who knows how it'll turn out? I feel like the record label never understood why this band originally got attention. But the original LADYBABY feel is alive and kicking under the name BABYBEARD.. and the original girls have a project called REIRIE
So many years after Ladybeard left there are still people talking about it. Exhausting 😑😑 just support the girls if you are a fan of the group. If not just let them create their own path
The majority of LADYBABY activities were without Ladybeard. He was in the group for a short time in comparison to all the other ex-members, and most LADYBABY songs were released without him. If anything, bringing Ladybeard back would be going backwards after all the hard work the 3rd lineup put into developing LADYBABY's identity. (I know this is a bait but I still replied just to pump up the engagement on the video for the algorithm)
@@HanyuuHOLO IS it bait though? Seems like lots of people tuned out after only hearing Nippon Manju -- normal for a viral hit -- and don't realize things change over 7 years (also, Rick/Beard is kind of a prick). Meanwhile, fans like me who stayed are talking about the 3rd gen which lasted the longest and had the most interesting music. Beard was and is a joke, rarely a funny one -- it was always the girls who had talent.
I really hope this 4th gen of Ladybaby finds their own sound and personality.

今日もLiveで『このメンバーって全員ビジュアルもボーカルもパフォーマンスもすげえよなよく集まったなこの逸材達』って思いながら観てました。
あのステージに辿り着くまでにいくつもの困難と壁を乗り越えてきたのだと思うとそれもそのはずですね…オーディション中から野心と闘争心がにじみ出ているような目を引く存在感があります。
ドキュメンタリーの続きも、現在のLADYBABYの続きも気になって目が離せないです…！

前のアイドル時代から、その前から応援してます！！！！
ビッグになって欲しいです！！！！！！
これは私が勝手に思っていることですが、彼女たちは仮にLADYBABYではなくとも何者かになれる才覚だと感じました。その上でLADYBABYを継いでくれてありがとうございます。

WHERE IS LADYBEARD!!!! BOOOO
In project "Baby Beard"
BABYBEARD doesn't have Rei & Rie (they have their own project now called REIRIE), but BABYBEARD definitely is in the mould of the original LADYBABY
