Having lived in Japan, you should definitely get going. Not only is it an amazing place but you display the desire to visit their country with the respect desired by the Japanese. If you do get to go someday, make it a goal to visit outside the big cities as well. Of course Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto are amazing but, once you get outside that delightful madness, you get to see Japan for real.
She's the reason why my enthusiasm for Band-Maid was cemented, and now when I listen to their music for the first time, I always concentrate on Misa's bass line. Because when I follow her bass line, not only do I get excited, but I can also hear the others more clearly, somehow. Thank you for sharing Misa's documentary. Brilliant.
MISA's solo on Dice made me deep dive into them. Usually MISA looks serious, but she smiles a lot during the live. So beautiful. For barefoot on stage, I personally think that she cares for other members. Since she is the tallest member, she seems to fit her height with other members on stage. Just my thought, but so lovely. Recently Kanami drank MISA's beer before her crazy solo time. 😂 th-cam.com/video/drKbFhzxZss/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Xi7gwksOKk0DCOwQ
Misa having started with a grounding in audio engineering makes perfect sense - an engineer's grasp of electronics and (particularly) big speaker drivers really helps in getting a bass 'rig' to work well, so that it has even volume and tone across its entire fretboard/range (not at all easy). IMO this is something most if not all great bass players share.
Minato Akane-san of Predia and Mochi to Cheese is now the lead vocalist of new rock band East of Eden. Go check them out, they're very good! Also, if you watch the Band-Maid Yokohama 2023 concert in the future, MISA-san's mom made a couple of cameos! :D
MISA and A-chan were rescued from the no tarento, Becky's backup band. The original wearer of TinyHat-san, the 6th member of BAND-MAID...on live gigs, TinyHat-san makes way for another member, MetalPole-san.
Lol, agree with you about the "no tarento"🤣 what talent exactly does a tarento TV personality has, it's out of my grasp. And supporting Becky is that kind of past stuff the girls don't wanna talk about😅😅😅 (Mincho and Akane having a past with Akane Minato is something they are probably very fond of though).

MISA placed it there for her mother to see. MISA's fear of BAND MAID being an Idol band were squashed I'm sure by MIKU. Here is an interview where the interviewer said that BAND MAID would be more of an Idol band as there are 5 cute girls in the band.

@@JustDunk I'm delivering mail right now. I just managed to catch the end of the live stream then watched the replay. Misa is amazing! Always appreciate your perspective!
Here in Germany I would call MISA a "coole Socke" (yes, cool sock), which unfortunately doesn't quite fit, as she usually plays barefoot, so I'll just say that it would certainly be a hell of a lot of fun to have a beer with her, which is very close to the meaning, at least according to my definition. 😎🍻 For me, MISA is simply a total package when it comes to bassists and beyond that. 🤘🏻 But I think it's fair to say that not only has she worked hard to achieve this status, but it's also thanks to her band members, who always support each other and give each other a certain amount of freedom to express their creativity... From what I know about these ladies, I would say each of them is somehow living their dream. Each on their own and yet together. ✨🤘🏻 _____________________ 「 _"Our rock never dies ever.

Moin, gut gesagt! Für mich kann sie als Bassisten das, was auch nicht viele Gitarristen können: ihr Instrument sprechen lassen! So wie Knahme, bei der du Gitarre singt, spricht, weint, schreit,! Hast du eine Ahnung, ob und wann sie nach Deutschland kommen wir haben bis jetzt noch nichts finden können. Liebe Grüße aus Hamburg Ben Po❤
@@tasminoben686 Gruß zurück aus Mainz in den Norden. 😉🙋🏻♂ Nee, hab leider auch noch überhaupt nichts gehört bzgl. eines Europabesuchs der Ladies. :( Weiß auch nicht, ob ich für dieses Jahr noch Hoffnung haben darf.

1. Dude you can do anything Band-Maid and ia a fun watch. 2. Search for MISA beer opening ceremony 😂. 3. You have a weird sound (like a fan) were you at that gets into the mic, is a bit distracting. 4. Welcome back, glad you are better
日本から。 I had not seen you for a while and was a little worried. Are you feeling better? Take it easy and work at your pace. There will be an archive of the spin-off concert （for ａ fee）on April 28th at 13:00 JST , and on May 1st at 24:00 JST, a new song “Besty,” co-written with Mike from INCUBUS, will be uploaded.Please check back soon for more information.
In the early days of reactions to Band Maid, either I would use the thumbs up symbol to anyone who typed, Misa Misa Misa, or if no one had typed it, type Misa Misa Misa, myself. Misa's back story is interesting. i knew some of the information in this documentary but learned a good deal from it as well.
The radio series was well worth listening to. Personally I think it marks the moment when Saiki became more confident and self assured and it showed in her stage presence from then on. Plus it is just great fun. Well worth listening to again.
Dunk, If you really want to go to Japan, I suggest you contact Ryan Mear, who just got back from a visit to Japan to attend some concerts. I'm sure he can give you an idea of the costs associated to travel, the ins and outs of traveling there. Peter Lim of Maid News Networks lives in Tokyo and can probably help you out about where to stay, to eat, to visit, and especially what bands and clubs would be working during your visit.
The coolest bassist in all the lands, and probably the sea.
Don't forget outerspace as well.

MISA actually was the original wearer of Tiny Hat before it was gifted to Akane. RIP Tiny Hat.
I used to be part of the 'Bring Back The Tiny Hat' people on social media.

Hello, JustDunk-san. We are deeply grateful for your love for Band-Maid. Please continue to watch Band-Maid's evolution and growth.👌😉
