Key Takeaways from the comments so far: 1. Bad song choice to show off her technicality, NOTED 2. I accidentally cut off the very epic ending LMAO My sincerest apologies to all of Haruna's fam so far and hopefully I can record a different reaction to her soon :)
The video you watched is the complete song, they do a 'fake ending' (where you stopped the video) then one guitarist comes back in with the riff, in the dark, the full band comes back in with the lights & they go one more time around the progression to abrupt END! It's not really gonna show you much else of her drumming in this song, but it is important to 'not miss anything' with this band because many 'moments' will have exceptional musical things taking place. This song was included in a fan-made collection called [harupi360🎧setlist] because she occasionally has an event where fans can gather closely all around her kit & she plays numerous of their songs surrounded (360-degrees) by them watching closely every move she makes and this song was included in that. (but 🎧indicating the playlist is 'hearing' 360, not seeing) All in the playlist has had her drums significantly boosted in the audio-mix. Here is the playlist, th-cam.com/video/YpDd25cTGnE/w-d-xo.html there is one other "drum-cam" among the more than a dozen songs, (Golden Destination) but also is not one of her more complex drum parts, though it is dominated by the "Iron Maiden gallop" that they perfected due to founding bassist's enthusiasm for Steve Harris & Iron Maiden in general. "My Orion" is another song that is included, by request of those who attended that event, though again, not a display of her most challenging skills. The other songs in the list are LIVE but chosen by the fan who edited the audio & hosts the list, or has been requested by other fans in the comments on other songs. 🐺 dreg👁

@@DrumRoast Here is a new (4-days ago) upload of "Break The Wall" with the drums boosted in the mix: th-cam.com/video/YxW6hzp8UFk/w-d-xo.html Same performance as in the above list but with the drums isolated, then boosted. (I confess, the audio editing of this collection [harupi360🎧setlist] is on another channel of mine 😉). I'd also like to say that every song is 'worthy' and every commenter's info & suggestions are most likely accurate. This is a unique band worthy of the attention! Aside from their stellar composing, arranging & musicianship, their lyrics are mostly positive & uplifting, a major attraction for me.
@@dregeye Haruna is so important for the iconic LOVEBITES sound (supported by bassist Miho or Fami). I saw "When Destinies Align" [OMV] today and set my focus on her, awsome how she interacts with the guitarists. But there are so many songs as example, I remember her in "Set The World On Fire" and "A Frozen Serenade"... and many more.
In the ranking of 500 Japanese drummers of all music genres (men and women) for 2022, Haruna is ranked 42nd. For example, Senri Kawaguchi is in 102nd place, Akane Hirose (Band-Maid) is in 116nd place, Junna is in 127nd place, Kanade Sato (Muses) is in 344th place. It is Haruna who largely defines the sound of Lovebites. She is the leading force of the group.
@@andreaspedersen3952 Senri Kawaguchi 102nd place is more surprising to me than Kanade Sato's 344th place. But still, I think all these drummers from the rating are very good. And ranking them is a very difficult task. No matter how you feel about this rating, one thing is for sure - Haruna deserves not only the love of the Lovebites fans because she is so sweet, but also immeasurable respect for her talent and outstanding professional skills. By the way, there aren't many female drummers in this ranking, and perhaps Haruna ranks first among them. For another example, in this list, drummer Kami Band (BabyMetal) is in 29th place.
@@DrumRoast I recall that poll but not the 'method'. Part of Haruna's 'charm' is her matter-of-fact approach, not a deliberate 'attention-getter' but, how I see & hear her, an 'orchestra' of precision-percussion all on her own, perfectly suiting every aspect of every song while never 'over-playing' or distracting from the overall song. Extremely detailed and precision accurate "as written" (by her) repeated in every performance. ... so many songs I want you to hear ... just try to give attention to her cymbal work, while she turns those dbl-kicks on & off seemingly unrelated to what her hands are doing ! But in all, what makes LOVEBITES sound like LOVEBITES !! (I keep practicing every day! Yes, these songs!)
This is probably the simplest and most boring song for Haruna. Haruna's technique, speed and precision are impressive. She is in the top 5 of my list of drummers in the world.
lol my bad bc of my ignorance I just picked something with a drum cam...I'll keep that in mind :))) as for me talking without knowing the drummer, I just like to react to stuff first before researching deeper before I get to my future reactions...I am starting to getting the feel the passion of the fans and the type of fans that Lovebites has :)
@@DrumRoast I would always start with the two collections by @JFrancoDrums or what Jorge's name was here, two 7-8 minute videos: "In the studio" and (new) the 2024 tour collection that was already linked!
@@DrumRoast It would've been alright if you just reviewed on what the drummer was doing "in this piece" but you reviewed her capability as a drummer which you'd never know through just only one performance that you randomly picked up.
You missed the end... Cut it off to short... Probably the simplist song she plays.. Check out soldier stands solitarily.. Also check out Tamu Murata, and Nemophila s cover of Kurenai english version.. it's smokin...

In this song, Haruna is efficiently pacing herself in their 2-hour long concert. Here is a glimpse of why she is called the "Little Big Engine". th-cam.com/video/vCYf2Fna8yY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=RkfItQ3k_5eiIWo2. See her wild performance, energy, and stamina for 6+ minutes in their closing song at the end of their concert th-cam.com/video/30yWisiRBuM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=F_h13gMmgJvUS5py
Thanks for checking-out LOVEBITES & Haruna. As a drummer myself, this is definitely one of her more basic songs, except for the precision pitched-cymbals work that often is emulating the rhythm, vocal or even guitar solo notes. bernards links are worthy, though here is a mashup of 4 short live-drum-cam segments put together (7-minutes) from June 2024's European tour: th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.html These were posted online by Haruna. That includes bernard's first link segment. His second link is a full song ending the 85-minute main-set at 195bpm for 6-minutes, from September 24, 2023. I recommend "The Apocalypse": th-cam.com/video/ttBL0Q744xA/w-d-xo.html for continuous amazing transitions throughout a uniquely prog piece. This band is an ensemble, so everyone typically 'gets their moments' in each song. The guitarist do each take a solo, usually then a duet, but "The Apocalypse" does away with all 'typical' structural-continuity, hence all the transitions, representing being subjected to atomic bombings in a more musical way than I ever could have imagined. Phenomenal. 🐺 dreg👁
This is a rest song for haruna, the little big engine can reach mad speeds and multiple key changes smoothly as hell, but always smiling like a day in the office... and you miss the restart of the last 10 seconds of the song. great feature by the way!
Haruna was rock solid in this performance even though Asami was struggling with the offbeat syncopation in the vocals. This was not a good representation of Haruna’s ability, she had her work cut out for her keeping the vocals on track.
male? female? no matter. she is a one of best drummer. watch more live video if you don't believe.of course, lovebites is best metal band in last some decades.(sorry for poor my English.)
First: This song is sort of a working break for her. Most of their songs are much more intense, and their sets are two hours long. Stamina? In spades. Second, I know you are a drum-focused channel, but you seem to appreciate technicality, so you really should check out the whole band. They are all jedi-level musicians, insanely proficient. Thanks for checking this out.
this comment is soooo positive compared to some of the others, I appreciate you so much!!! 2 hours would need multiple of these break-like songs so I totally sympathize and understand now!!! JEDI LEVEL is the vibe I'm getting from many other folks in the comments as well :))))
One thing, of many, I admire about Haruna is her creative use of cymbals. And she has a lot of them. You only see a bit of her creativity in this video.
She is awesome, Check out Soldier Stands Solitarily live to see what she can do. Another feamle Japanese drummer you need to see is Tamu from Nemophila. The Japanese music scene is just loaded with many immensly talented musicians and bands. It's the best in the world at the moment.
@@DrumRoast Try Missioned Souls from The Philippines. They have a 10 year old drummer, He may be 11 now. He's solid. Also check out Nandi from the U.K. playing with The Foo Fighters.
One of my very favourite bands, Lovebites, absolutely adoreee the incredible little powerhouse Harunaaa!! ❤ May I also suggest featuring Japanese drummer, the super amazing, Murata Tamu!!! (Nemophila)..great stuff!! 👍
many is suggesting you Soldier Stands Solidarity, which is a super song for her, but IMO the most difficult and technically song on drums is Nameless Warrior (th-cam.com/video/Dl29tiJCbNM/w-d-xo.html) due to its tempo and variations.
@@DrumRoast Here is the same performance but with the drums boosted in the audio-mix, also with [cc] lyrics if desired. It is a song about the departure of their founding bassist and their promise to "resurrect" in future. This is the fulfillment of that "Resurrection": th-cam.com/video/jYrvuM5bds4/w-d-xo.html
You apparently haven't seen Harupi in a live concert , she is like AKANE from BAND MAID , she has been clocked at over 300 bpm ! she played for 3 hours straight in their 10th Anniversary concert in Yokohama , 😂
@DrumRoast yes , pretty much , her nickname is Gorilla ! and she lives on Bananas & can eat over 30 bowls of Ramen in one setting ! most men are outta their league if trying to compete against AKANE ,
Haruna is known for her precision with cymbals. She doesn't just use them for accents and splashes, but she uses them as a whole extra instrument! Also, not sure if you realized, but this song has a false ending, so you cut it off before the actual end of the song.
If you really want to see just how good the 4'9 human metronome known as The Little Big Engine Haruna is, have a watch of this mix from 2024. I think you'll have to rethink your assessment of her, especially when you said she is a bit stiff lol, you have no idea how technical and skilled she is 😂😂😂 th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dTHw8nIr_2vLhoXS
Yes, @DrumRoast, this link above is to the same 4 of Haruna's own drum-cam clips from the EU tour that I shared in my original comment about "The Apocalypse". A phone or other cam but only showing her and barely hearing the rest of the band, but Haruna's choices of clips to show us.
@@DrumRoast This is absolutely the best link to view to get a REAL opinion of Haruna. It shows clips from several songs and is a drum cam where you can clearly hear the drums above everything else. And it contains part of Soldier Stands Solitarily, one of their fastest and hardest songs to play. th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.html
Lol, she is not bad, alright as a female drummer?? Ok, you haven't heard her serious double bass, and fills. You are just talking about what you don't know. lol
@@DrumRoastThe piece you chose is just a fun stuff for having interaction with the audience. Well, my suggestion, would be Soldier Stands Solitarily which is a very fast piece. th-cam.com/video/30yWisiRBuM/w-d-xo.html. I personally like this heavyness of The Bell In The Jail, a short piece but I like it. th-cam.com/video/CsSSkGZ15WM/w-d-xo.html
@@DrumRoast I love how Tamu did a cover of BiSH a pretty difficult pop song by BiSH th-cam.com/video/ZwxA_qksTT0/w-d-xo.html I love it! Those things she does with the toms

@@DrumRoast "Little" because she's only 4-foot-9/145cm.
Its one of their simpler song you should check their song soldier stand solidarity or break the wall if you wanted Heavy.
"Break The Wall" 2020 [harupi360🎧setlist] [cc] lyrics:

Not a 'drum-cam' but drums boosted in the mix.
🐺 dreg👁
ooo thanks for the recs and sorry for my snap analysis!! This is not the first time I've done this on my channel :((((
Thanks for checking-out LOVEBITES & Haruna. As a drummer myself, this is definitely one of her more basic songs, except for the precision pitched-cymbals work that often is emulating the rhythm, vocal or even guitar solo notes.
bernards links are worthy, though here is a mashup of 4 short live-drum-cam segments put together (7-minutes) from June 2024's European tour: th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.html
These were posted online by Haruna.
That includes bernard's first link segment. His second link is a full song ending the 85-minute main-set at 195bpm for 6-minutes, from September 24, 2023.
I recommend "The Apocalypse": th-cam.com/video/ttBL0Q744xA/w-d-xo.html
for continuous amazing transitions throughout a uniquely prog piece.
This band is an ensemble, so everyone typically 'gets their moments' in each song.
The guitarist do each take a solo, usually then a duet,
but "The Apocalypse" does away with all 'typical' structural-continuity,
hence all the transitions, representing being subjected to atomic bombings
in a more musical way than I ever could have imagined. Phenomenal.
🐺 dreg👁
thank you for the link and amazing LORE as always!!!!
@@DrumRoast The 2024 Europe tour link is the best one to view next.
This is a rest song for haruna, the little big engine can reach mad speeds and multiple key changes smoothly as hell, but always smiling like a day in the office... and you miss the restart of the last 10 seconds of the song. great feature by the way!
thank you for the rec and being one of the few positive comments!!!
Best and cutest drummer ! I'm very lucky because I saw Lovebites live 6 months ago in Europe ! I ❤ Bites so much !
uwu one of the best!!!! ❤❤❤
That was Haruna in her sleep... LOL
😂😂😂oh from the comments I know this drum cam was nothing compared to her real playing skills :)))
My friend if you want to see what she really can do, watch Soldier stands solitarily live. You will be blown away.
thank you for the rec!!!
It is impossible to have an opinion about Haruna from this track. ❤
❤❤❤hard to find drum cams of her besides a couple vids :((
This is one of the slow paced relaxed tracks for the queen of thunder. You haven't seen anything yet.
absolutely I've been told a couple times that this is her break song 🤣🤣🤣
Listen to Set the world on fire or Brake the wall or Judgment day and listen to Haruna
thanks for the recs!!!!
Haruna is my favorite drummer . ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Haruna was rock solid in this performance even though Asami was struggling with the offbeat syncopation in the vocals. This was not a good representation of Haruna’s ability, she had her work cut out for her keeping the vocals on track.
yea these songs are freakin hard for sure..thank you so much for the background info Woody!!!
That’s quite a calm song for Haruna.
very calm according to many comments 😂😂😂
male? female? no matter. she is a one of best drummer. watch more live video if you don't believe.of course, lovebites is best metal band in last some decades.(sorry for poor my English.)
I need to watch more live videos!!!! your English is great :)))
I'm sorry. It's not the end of the song yet. I can't believe you missed the highlights of Haruna.
my bad...had a couple seconds left in the video :(((
Next time finish the track.
yes sir!!! my sincerest apologies to you all!!!!
Haruna and Akane are friends
that's wholesome...hoping for drum solo collab between them someday :)))
First: This song is sort of a working break for her. Most of their songs are much more intense, and their sets are two hours long. Stamina? In spades. Second, I know you are a drum-focused channel, but you seem to appreciate technicality, so you really should check out the whole band. They are all jedi-level musicians, insanely proficient. Thanks for checking this out.
this comment is soooo positive compared to some of the others, I appreciate you so much!!! 2 hours would need multiple of these break-like songs so I totally sympathize and understand now!!! JEDI LEVEL is the vibe I'm getting from many other folks in the comments as well :))))
@@DrumRoast hope to see you do more--and even without the drum cam, you'll always get a blast from Haruna.
One thing, of many, I admire about Haruna is her creative use of cymbals. And she has a lot of them. You only see a bit of her creativity in this video.
She is awesome, Check out Soldier Stands Solitarily live to see what she can do. Another feamle Japanese drummer you need to see is Tamu from Nemophila. The Japanese music scene is just loaded with many immensly talented musicians and bands. It's the best in the world at the moment.
yes sir Kevin I need to add my Japanese playlist to the description which covers Akane :))))
@@DrumRoast Try Missioned Souls from The Philippines. They have a 10 year old drummer, He may be 11 now. He's solid. Also check out Nandi from the U.K. playing with The Foo Fighters.
One of my very favourite bands, Lovebites, absolutely adoreee the incredible little powerhouse Harunaaa!! ❤ May I also suggest featuring Japanese drummer, the super amazing, Murata Tamu!!! (Nemophila)..great stuff!! 👍
Haruna 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
👏👏👏👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Yes sir!
Weird choice song to react, this was one of their "relax" song. Try "Nameless Warrior" and focus on her cymbals accents.
😂😂😂 yessir a very relaxing song...thanks for the rec!!!
many is suggesting you Soldier Stands Solidarity, which is a super song for her, but IMO the most difficult and technically song on drums is Nameless Warrior (th-cam.com/video/Dl29tiJCbNM/w-d-xo.html) due to its tempo and variations.
omg thanks for the link!!!!
@@DrumRoast Here is the same performance but with the drums boosted in the audio-mix, also with [cc] lyrics if desired. It is a song about the departure of their founding bassist and their promise to "resurrect" in future. This is the fulfillment of that "Resurrection":
th-cam.com/video/jYrvuM5bds4/w-d-xo.html
THANK
You apparently haven't seen Harupi in a live concert , she is like AKANE from BAND MAID , she has been clocked at over 300 bpm ! she played for 3 hours straight in their 10th Anniversary concert in Yokohama , 😂
300 BPM??????????????? I'm sorry I need to sell my drums now 😭😭😭
@DrumRoast yes , pretty much , her nickname is Gorilla ! and she lives on Bananas & can eat over 30 bowls of Ramen in one setting ! most men are outta their league if trying to compete against AKANE ,
Dude you haven't seen anything yet. Look at more of their stuff. Her double bass is super fast and tight!
double bass is def pretty sick so far
My favorite little drummer girl, go Haruna! 🧡⭐👟👟🥁⭐💥🐺🤘
🧡⭐👟👟🥁⭐💥🐺🤘🧡⭐👟👟🥁⭐💥🐺🤘
Haruna is known for her precision with cymbals. She doesn't just use them for accents and splashes, but she uses them as a whole extra instrument! Also, not sure if you realized, but this song has a false ending, so you cut it off before the actual end of the song.
yes sir I screwed up...not the first time on this channel either...that's my bad :(
If you really want to see just how good the 4'9 human metronome known as The Little Big Engine Haruna is, have a watch of this mix from 2024. I think you'll have to rethink your assessment of her, especially when you said she is a bit stiff lol, you have no idea how technical and skilled she is 😂😂😂
th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dTHw8nIr_2vLhoXS
Yes, @DrumRoast, this link above is to the same 4 of Haruna's own drum-cam clips from the EU tour that I shared in my original comment about "The Apocalypse". A phone or other cam but only showing her and barely hearing the rest of the band, but Haruna's choices of clips to show us.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 thanks for the link!!! I'll def check it out...
@@DrumRoast This is absolutely the best link to view to get a REAL opinion of Haruna. It shows clips from several songs and is a drum cam where you can clearly hear the drums above everything else. And it contains part of Soldier Stands Solitarily, one of their fastest and hardest songs to play. th-cam.com/video/5qSivhIBciY/w-d-xo.html
🤟🏻🔥🐺HARUPIII🐺🔥🤘🏻
📣GRANDIOSAAAAA‼️
🤘🏻🤘🏻
💯 ❤🔥👍👍👍
💯 ❤🔥👍👍👍💯 ❤🔥👍👍👍
Lol, she is not bad, alright as a female drummer?? Ok, you haven't heard her serious double bass, and fills. You are just talking about what you don't know. lol
yea bad pick for a song on my part 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@DrumRoastThe piece you chose is just a fun stuff for having interaction with the audience. Well, my suggestion, would be Soldier Stands Solitarily which is a very fast piece. th-cam.com/video/30yWisiRBuM/w-d-xo.html. I personally like this heavyness of The Bell In The Jail, a short piece but I like it. th-cam.com/video/CsSSkGZ15WM/w-d-xo.html
Senri is the greatest!
Senri vs Haruna...comparison time? LOL
@@DrumRoast It's hard to decide who's better...it's about taste. I like Senri's more delicate touch. Her wrists are magical
@@DrumRoast Have you seen this? Every drummer envy her easinessth-cam.com/video/vXYTD_JQ0fQ/w-d-xo.html
@@DrumRoast I love how Tamu did a cover of BiSH a pretty difficult pop song by BiSH th-cam.com/video/ZwxA_qksTT0/w-d-xo.html I love it! Those things she does with the toms
She can hit just as hard as any man. This was really the wrong song to show off her talents. Do your research it's all there including more drum cams!
yep many have said the same...doin more research now :)))
She never missed to hit all the cymbals.....
Check drummer Morita Tamu from NEMOPHILA....
Morita has been added :))) very excited!!!
