He also made my favorite argument as to why this was such a great cover. He talked about how there’s so many drummers out there acting all guarded and afraid to make a mistake, and yet here’s this girl out here just letting loose. And yeah, she’s absolutely killing it on the drums, but (as these guys observed early on in the video) she’s HAVING THE TIME OF HER LIFE DOING IT. As an avid concert-goer, that translates almost more than anything else. Y’all can have all the special effects, lighting, and pyro in the world. And that’s all well and good. But the thing that usually makes me the most likely to let loose and have a great time as an audience member is if you (the performer) look like you’re doing the same.
@@uredbulldawg 100% agree, to me there is a MAJOR difference between being able to play a song, or make it through, and being able to OWN a song. This girl owns everything she plays.
Gee looked like a proud father watching Juuna playing so relaxed and just looking like she was having fun. It was also cute seeing him air drum while watching the video~ 🎶
Junna= 21 years old!She started when she was 15 years with the drums by her father, she won several prizes with drumming!The original band drummer said its his favourite cover and smiled watching Junna played his part! Junna comes from Japan !She only practized for 6 years! LOL!!
JUNNA is just a BADASS! This girl is a BEAST! She beats the drums like they owe her money! I would hate to piss her off when she had a pair of drumsticks in her hands! Most ENTERTAINING drummer in the world! Facial expressions, wild movements, power, speed and flawless execution! First time I heard her I ducked for cover. I thought a machine gun was going off.
She's fun to watch. She smiles and sings the song as well, there's no tension and serious feeling. She has perfect timing with all the different changes in the song. She kicks butt as a musician and we all hope and pray to see more from her in the future.
Junna was a child prodigy drummer and is now in her early twenties. Her "thing", other than being an absolute monster on the kit, is her showmanship and look. She's been on TH-cam for like four years and only drops a few songs a year.
@@effIron Wrong Junna. That is the singer. Junna the drummer is 24 she started playing drums when she was 15. So not a child prodigy either. I don't know why people think spreading misinformation is fun.
@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 Wrong , she is 21 now . She was born 2 November 2000 in Nagoya, Aichi, Japan. I don`t know why people think spreading mis-information is fun.
@@davidhaney1394 That is the Jpop singer not the drummer. Believe it or not, just like there is more than one idiot named David in the world there is more than one talented female Japanese performer named Junna.
I'm 51, started drumming when I was 13 mainly because of Dave Lombardo's double bass. Not many metal drummers play with a single bass pedal, Iron Maiden's Nicko McBrain is an exception and he sounds like he's playing with two pedals on a lot of songs. I gave her video a Thumbs Up, no jealousy here, just very impressed. I can't play blast beats anymore, 2 minutes in and I'd have to stop and put on an oxygen mask.
@@THENOBODIESREACTS Yeah, I slowed down on metal reaction channels for awhile, every channel is copy/paste doing all the same songs so I mostly just watch reactions to songs I've never seen a reaction to yet, those are few and far between. I've seen drummers reactions to this video a few times, suggested Aquiles Priester's cover but no takers. Seriously, as a drummer you need to watch him play, it'll blow your mind. Got a couple other suggestions for you guys, some new old school thrash. Sacred Reich - Awakening Flotsam & Jetsam - Brace For Impact And because there still aren't any reactions to it, Death Angel - The Ultra-Violence, a 9 minute instrumental, the drummer was 14 when it was recorded in 1985, 2 years before the album's release.
@@ninjaofkaos8006 i know the singer junna is about 20 drummer junna is older. If you look at her old videos t there is a video in 2019 where she says that she has been playing drums for 8 years and if you Google "Cosplay and Drums - Interviewing Junna" she states that she began at age 15... Either way she rocks!
Junnaは 2020年9月26日に 24歳になってます。彼女は元 ガールズロックバンド革命 ( 現TRiDENT ) のメンバーでした。 Junna has become 24 years old on September 26, 2020. She was a member of the former Girls Rock Band Kakumei ( now TRiDENT ).
I can't stop watching this young lady . She's absolutely fucking amazing. You can tell she loves what she's doing and pores her heart and soul into it . I hope she goes far in life she's got talent that most drummers can only dream of having
Oh.... the reaction videos of Junna. LOL They always bring a smile. Oh and she was around 19 when this video was recorded. And keeping in mind she started playing drums at 15..... this is Junna after 4 years of playing. Let that nugget sink in for a hot minute. LOL
Anyone who disliked this are just jealous cause they know Junna has more talent in a strand of her hair than they have in their entire body and that's the bottom line.
She is 23-24 if I recall, she is no child. She didn't even start playing until 15 or some such. She is also contracted by Pearl drums(Headquartered in Japan) and I am sure other endorsements. She played with Trident, a pretty good J-rock/metal band.
there is a nice comment from Jeff Beck after seeing Hendrix live in a club in London for the first time. He worried that it would be better for him to apply for a job at the post office in the future. Something like that must be happening to some drummers when they see Junna.
as mentioned below. Junna is early 20's. She was in a band called "Girls Rock Band Kakumei" (check out the song "VOLTAGE") ... She left that band not too long ago. The group (of 3) found a new drummer and rebranded as Trident. And amazingly enough the drummer they found (Nagisa) is a Junna clone. Also if i recall correctly, Junna did not start playing the drums until she was 15.
I've played this song a few dozen times, and that ending is very high level... she nailed it as did the rest of the song!! Any proffesional drummer have fear, and keep their heads down. She so so young, energetic, and confident. There not a drop of fear in that young girl. She's so play letting it rip by muscle memory. She has the stamina, so no issues there either. She also not doing that off the cuff either. She's practiced that many times as well. Hats she's doing isn't all that difficult, just keep it tight!
It's always such a joy to watch a musician who really loves what they are doing. And I just love it when they make those faces like Junna does. That when you know they are 110% into it! xD Also, loved that drinking reference to the music video :P
They owed her a ton, by the sounds of it she only got a fraction of it back and she only left them alive because they still need to pay her back….. that’s the only reason she let them live…. It’s just good business
I wouldn't give her parents too much credit. It was either get her interested in drums or put up with having their house destroyed on a weekly basis with a young daughter with THAT much energy to spare. Holy crap on a cracker but she has energy to spare. I love how she actually rebounds when she stops drumming. That is so fun to watch.
I'm 69 years old and I started playing the drums 6. I could play that song, but I would need paddles, an oxygen tent, iv nutrients .Oh medics also. She is sooooooo goood damnit!
JUNNA is somewhere around 25, but she is totally amazing! If I started a band today she would be my first choice as drummer (and when I posted that on my Twitter, she liked it)! Another young female Japanese drummer of note is Yoyoka (11)! She comes from a musical family (her mom, Rie Soma, plays guitar, bass, and sings)

It's like some kids were born to take over so amazing to see this young generation drumming like their already in the adult stage wow!😲🇬🇺 it just freaks me out
Wow, finally you both check out this cute little devil drummer. She is my another favorite drummer. The another one is Haruna ( the drummer of Lovebites ) They both is very little cute girl, but on the drum, they are monsters. Anyway Junna is not a child. Her age is about 23 years old, if I'm not wrong. And she is the professional drummer. She is the ex drummer from the band call "Girl rock band kakumei" Now she is solo drummer. Thank you for make this great reaction.
I've seen many reactions to this video and everyone reacts confused when she bends down and has a drink. This is a shoutout to Sam Totman who does the same on the video that this particular soundtrack came from.
This little girl is amazing. I have watched all her videos, and it's just ridiculous. 50 times i looked over at my drumset, debating just kicking it out from my balcony. Just so good.
@@thanossnap4170 LOL! Yeah, my Roland TD-6 double kick drums are a semi permanent feature on the stage at my church....and we don't have a balcony!!! Watch her earlier Canon Rock video form years ago, that was when I first saw her...she killed it!
She was a member of the rock trio "Girls Rock Band Kakumei" (started in 2013 when the bassist and guitarist were in the same high school music club) but left in 2020. The band got a new drummer, Nagisa, and re-named themselves TRiDENT. So yes, Junna is older than she looks. If you want to see a 11 year Japanese terror on the drums check out Yoyoka. Her channel is th-cam.com/users/kaneaikaneai Some of the videos go back to when she was 8, like her cover of Led Zepplin's "Good Times Bad Times"
Okay I have been a Drummer for a long time and followed some of the Greats, Neal, Buddy, Keith, and I have to say that this girl is beyond Talented. If I didn't know better All the great drummers in the world like I mentioned Neil Peart, Buddy Rich, Keith Moon, Gene Krupa, I think they all had a hand in creating such a Great Talent
Imagine dragon force doing a show in a nearby city where this girl lives and requests SHE play through the fire and flames!! The drummer from dragon force already said this was his favorite cover and just think 50 years down the road and dragon force is in history and she looks back as she tells her grandchild she played the drums on stage for a dragon force song at 10 years old! I honestly think she can handle it! But what do I know I can barely pour a drink left handed at age 31 😂
@@effIron I'm assuming you just googled Junna, and most likely the one that came up is the singer who is 20 and you didn't notice. Junna the drummer is almost 25.
Not only is she using both hands and both feet ...she is mouthing the lyrics. Male professional drummers with years of experience, have been left as a puddle on the floor when confronted with playing this. Look at those twin tails fly!!! Junna was also in a band called Trident for a brief while. Japan is the current epicenter for hard rock and metal ... mostly all girl bands. Along with Trident, ... BAND MAID, Bridear, Mary's Blood, Lovebites, and of course Babymetal along with a slew of others. Japan is rocks' new address. Trident - VOLTAGE
6:05..And it happens so fast you can't even see it,dad is so right,I think the fact that where are so many "Asian" drummers coming through is because they are so much more strict and maybe also more dedicated in their learning and practice.I've seen 2 or 3 other young Asian females come through who are also absolutely phenomenally fast with both hands and feet,Senri Kawaguchi,Kanade Sato,Kalonica Nix just to name a few that I know.
If you want to see something really funny, watch what JUNNA does with her sticks at the end of this video... . "【 JUNNA 】Rising Force / Yngwie Malmsteen -Drum cover -" th-cam.com/video/0Y37gImgpIE/w-d-xo.html It's like all of her other videos, AWESOME, but I just want you to watch the end (Start at 4:02, it happens at 4:23). Watch what she does with her sticks! They were either on fire or simply of no use to her any longer. Very Funny!
If you like Junna, you will LOVE Yoyoka Samo, another Japanese drum prodigy. She will be 13 this year and has been playing drums since she was 2 years old, and there's video to prove it. She had her own TH-cam channel at 5 and has been doing tutorials from the age of 6. She does not read music but can play by ear alone. It takes her 1 day to memorize a song and then makes a cover video. Last year for her 12th birthday she did a series of live sessions with some of Japan's best session musicians. You have to check out her work, it's amazing.
@@MrAntisound Kanade and Senri are definitely technically gifted, but the totality of presence, especially with Akane, makes it a bit of a different quality. I've seen Akane live twice and she just has that flair and pure joy in what she does on stage.
Hey Dad and Son, isn’t she terrific? I know that drums carrying the song, but if you listen to an other young artist who plays the solo guitar in this song. Her name is Tina S. Hope you enjoy her to!
i want you to note she did not break a stick ! i have the pros play and they break sticks all the time note also the muscle in her forearms and calves. that shows she has been practicing a long time
She is of adult age in this video and if you think she looks young here, you should see her with her hair down, she looks even younger. Truly gifted and blessed. Thank you for reacting to this video! Recommend Mutant Monster's Nekokaburi
For a real 8 year old drumming prodigy Yoyoka her cover of Led Zeppelin: Good Times Bad Times, was reacted to by Robert Plant , who half jokingly offered her a job.
By the way, if you want another young musician to react to, try watching Tina S playing "Moonlight Sonata - 3rd Movement" by our good friend Beethoven. It's a treat as well. Tina is 17 years old in this vid. Vid: th-cam.com/video/o6rBK0BqL2w/w-d-xo.html Tina also does a cover of Dragonforce's "Through the Fire and Flames and she is only 15 years old in the vid: th-cam.com/video/XpASSx0ecTU/w-d-xo.html Come to think of it, there is video where they combine Tina and Junna on "TTFAF": th-cam.com/video/ikAcH5U0r4c/w-d-xo.html Another video has Dragonforce's drummer reacting to Junna to give you an idea of just how good she really is: th-cam.com/video/2M2Hv5GuSn4/w-d-xo.html Ya, I think that's it. Have a good time!
after watching gee ana... somethin' or other, the original drummer, play "through the fire", what is impressive with junna's performance, and i think why HE reacted as he did, is that while he is an exceptional drummer, himself, to play drums at that speed means, for many drummers, sacrificing a little bit of "the show"... playing close to the kit... whereas junna simple batters the skins without mercy but precisely. at least that's how i compare junna's performance to 3 different performances of gee (and watching the official vid explains why junna takes a drink break... i've watched several "reaction vid" makers wrinkle their foreheads when they see it). her performance is a blur of action and satisfaction. i'm glad she doesn't play the piano, as my life would have no further meaning ;)
Both your reactions to Junna are by far the most entertaining I've seen 😂. Loved it! Please react to Larnell Lewis, especially his vid on learning Enter Sandman - which is far away as from his genre.
JUNNA is THE TOP FEMALE DRUMMER on the planet. Go ahead and look her name up. I've seen it!! She's freaking awesome and all those facial looks are so perfect, so spot on to what she does on a five piece drum kit! Imagine JUNNA sitting behind any of Neil (The Professor) Peart's drum kits!!! Okay. Okay.
Your delusional. She's nowhere close. Because she's only good at one thing. Playing fast. Youoka is by far the best. She can play any speed and any type of music.
Guys, watch her played drum with TRiDENT-Japan(KAKUMEI) songs MV Voltage, No Regret, Utopia before she left the Band, but the new drummer played just like her..... :)
I think that the new drummer fit more than Junna, I"m not talking that she is better or worst, its just a feeling that Junna on this band is far ahead with his drums, the band are in one place and Junna is just acelerating, leting everybody behind, eating smoke.
The Dragonforce drummer reacted and said hers was his favorite cover of their song.
Yes it's true 👍🏻

She is having a great time playing it perfectly and she is not focusing anymore because she is totally focused in her own little world.

It's like some kids were born to take over so amazing to see this young generation drumming like their already in the adult stage wow!😲🇬🇺 it just freaks me out
The older I get and the more I learn, the more I learn that I know NOTHING!
I LOVE IT!
Great reaction guys!
Wow, finally you both check out this cute little devil drummer.
She is my another favorite drummer. The another one is Haruna ( the drummer of Lovebites )
They both is very little cute girl, but on the drum, they are monsters.
Anyway Junna is not a child. Her age is about 23 years old, if I'm not wrong.
And she is the professional drummer.
She is the ex drummer from the band call "Girl rock band kakumei"
Now she is solo drummer.
Thank you for make this great reaction.
I thought she was 24. Either way, ain't no teen lol.... love hana from doll$boxx too
Yeah... western people always think Asians are kids, even when they are well in 20-30 year range.
ok chill there, ur prob not out for the drummer. you just like small girls weebie boy
She also played with Trident but no longer with them
I've seen many reactions to this video and everyone reacts confused when she bends down and has a drink. This is a shoutout to Sam Totman who does the same on the video that this particular soundtrack came from.
I’m laughing cause I’m gonna be 40 next month, and Junna is just incredible!! 🙀😁👏🏻👍🏻
JUNNA is a legend! Best amateur female drummer in the world!
40's? Huh? I'm 61 and been playing 47 years and STILL cannot play this!!!
This little girl is amazing. I have watched all her videos, and it's just ridiculous. 50 times i looked over at my drumset, debating just kicking it out from my balcony. Just so good.
@@thanossnap4170 LOL! Yeah, my Roland TD-6 double kick drums are a semi permanent feature on the stage at my church....and we don't have a balcony!!! Watch her earlier Canon Rock video form years ago, that was when I first saw her...she killed it!
She was a member of the rock trio "Girls Rock Band Kakumei" (started in 2013 when the bassist and guitarist were in the same high school music club) but left in 2020. The band got a new drummer, Nagisa, and re-named themselves TRiDENT. So yes, Junna is older than she looks. If you want to see a 11 year Japanese terror on the drums check out Yoyoka. Her channel is th-cam.com/users/kaneaikaneai Some of the videos go back to when she was 8, like her cover of Led Zepplin's "Good Times Bad Times"
She's really an insane drummer for her age, wow
Once in a life time female drumming Genius
JUNNA 】Lux Æterna / Metallica - Drum cover
Okay I have been a Drummer for a long time and followed some of the Greats, Neal, Buddy, Keith, and I have to say that this girl is beyond Talented. If I didn't know better All the great drummers in the world like I mentioned Neil Peart, Buddy Rich, Keith Moon, Gene Krupa, I think they all had a hand in creating such a Great Talent
Imagine dragon force doing a show in a nearby city where this girl lives and requests SHE play through the fire and flames!! The drummer from dragon force already said this was his favorite cover and just think 50 years down the road and dragon force is in history and she looks back as she tells her grandchild she played the drums on stage for a dragon force song at 10 years old! I honestly think she can handle it! But what do I know I can barely pour a drink left handed at age 31 😂
Junna started playing at 15 years old. Near 25 years old now.
Born in 2000, so she's 21.
@@effIron I'm assuming you just googled Junna, and most likely the one that came up is the singer who is 20 and you didn't notice. Junna the drummer is almost 25.
@@xtravagentk1275 no, i didnt Google her, i went to her webside…
@@effIron You went to the wrong website lol. Junna the drummer doesn't have her birth date on her website. While Junna the singer does.
JUNNA the drummer doesn’t share her birthdate, but Mark is right, she’s 25 now, started at 15
Not only is she using both hands and both feet ...she is mouthing the lyrics. Male professional drummers with years of experience, have been left as a puddle on the floor when confronted with playing this. Look at those twin tails fly!!! Junna was also in a band called Trident for a brief while. Japan is the current epicenter for hard rock and metal ... mostly all girl bands. Along with Trident, ... BAND MAID, Bridear, Mary's Blood, Lovebites, and of course Babymetal along with a slew of others. Japan is rocks' new address.
Trident - VOLTAGE
6:05..And it happens so fast you can't even see it,dad is so right,I think the fact that where are so many "Asian" drummers coming through is because they are so much more strict and maybe also more dedicated in their learning and practice.I've seen 2 or 3 other young Asian females come through who are also absolutely phenomenally fast with both hands and feet,Senri Kawaguchi,Kanade Sato,Kalonica Nix just to name a few that I know.
You can tell Dad grew up hearing some metal :)
Junna is a force of nature.
If you want to see something really funny, watch what JUNNA does with her sticks at the end of this video... . "【 JUNNA 】Rising Force / Yngwie Malmsteen -Drum cover -" th-cam.com/video/0Y37gImgpIE/w-d-xo.html It's like all of her other videos, AWESOME, but I just want you to watch the end (Start at 4:02, it happens at 4:23). Watch what she does with her sticks! They were either on fire or simply of no use to her any longer. Very Funny!
Her drinking the pop is a spoof from the music video
Japanese 30 + there is only 1 Junna! This studio that you see her in has a glass partition where people/fans can watch her perform.
If you want to see an 11 year old master the drums : Yoyoka !!!
Amazing ability girl.wow.wow.wow
"I can't even handle the first 5 seconds of that song" that's me when i played Guitar Hero with my friends who played on Expert...
They should put her on America's Got Talent
She was 20 when she recorded this, she has been playing for just 5 years.
Junna was 23 at the time of this recording.
If you like Junna, you will LOVE Yoyoka Samo, another Japanese drum prodigy. She will be 13 this year and has been playing drums since she was 2 years old, and there's video to prove it. She had her own TH-cam channel at 5 and has been doing tutorials from the age of 6. She does not read music but can play by ear alone. It takes her 1 day to memorize a song and then makes a cover video. Last year for her 12th birthday she did a series of live sessions with some of Japan's best session musicians. You have to check out her work, it's amazing.
@@MrAntisound Kanade and Senri are definitely technically gifted, but the totality of presence, especially with Akane, makes it a bit of a different quality. I've seen Akane live twice and she just has that flair and pure joy in what she does on stage.
That snare was a machine.
One of her old covers.
She's mid teen now and still a joy to watch
Um...shes in her 20's!
LOL...I have watched many reactions of this, but never had this fun.. :D
Junna is actually about 25 now, I believe
Hey Dad and Son, isn’t she terrific? I know that drums carrying the song, but if you listen to an other young artist who plays the solo guitar in this song. Her name is Tina S. Hope you enjoy her to!
i want you to note she did not break a stick ! i have the pros play and they break sticks all the time
note also the muscle in her forearms and calves. that shows she has been practicing a long time
She’s an amazing 26 year old Woman
You are about to go down the Junna and Yoyoka rabbit hole with me! Lol seriously check out Yoyoka
She is of adult age in this video and if you think she looks young here, you should see her with her hair down, she looks even younger. Truly gifted and blessed. Thank you for reacting to this video! Recommend Mutant Monster's Nekokaburi
So she's not 10? How weird is this, I thought last night that she may be much older passing as a child. lol
@@cristyrawks6325 She turns 25 Sept 26th I believe.
@@xtravagentk1275 Well that's disgusting, faking everybody out!!
@@cristyrawks6325 Huh? She's not faking anything.
We were made to think that she was a child doing these drums when she is in fact an adult. I called it right in another comment. 🤷♀️
Incredibile, mai vista una simile velocità!!!
"Have you ever sing along to a song? You suck!" Best comment ever!!
Was pretty damn funny 😄
For a real 8 year old drumming prodigy Yoyoka her cover of Led Zeppelin: Good Times Bad Times, was reacted to by Robert Plant , who half jokingly offered her a job.
I just went to check it out. It’s good but tops a quarter of the speed and hits JUNNAS nailing
Damn , is the nemesis druming fature!
The best Japanese jazz drummer, perhaps the best jazz drummer on the planet, is Senri Kawaguchi...who once covered Tambo in 7/4 at the age of 7!
Asians are the "BEAST"
I think every of those gems have different personality. Junna is unique in its own way !
Wow, I'm in amazement !
By the way, if you want another young musician to react to, try watching Tina S playing "Moonlight Sonata - 3rd Movement" by our good friend Beethoven. It's a treat as well. Tina is 17 years old in this vid.
Vid: th-cam.com/video/o6rBK0BqL2w/w-d-xo.html
Tina also does a cover of Dragonforce's "Through the Fire and Flames and she is only 15 years old in the vid: th-cam.com/video/XpASSx0ecTU/w-d-xo.html
Come to think of it, there is video where they combine Tina and Junna on "TTFAF": th-cam.com/video/ikAcH5U0r4c/w-d-xo.html
Another video has Dragonforce's drummer reacting to Junna to give you an idea of just how good she really is: th-cam.com/video/2M2Hv5GuSn4/w-d-xo.html
Ya, I think that's it. Have a good time!
She's not 10 years old she's was 20 when she did this she started playing drums when she was 15 she plays other instruments as well and she sings
She not 10 years old, She in her 20's and used to play with a all girl Japanese band named Trident.
Watch Yoyoka,11 yrs old, Burn by Deep Purple!
Junna is about 24 y.o.
That is a must, for any drummer.
Watch the version of Ian Paice reacting to it (the original drummer). Found it!

@@itsmeagain1745
He is the first drummer to get my attention (speed king 1969). It was great to see him watch her.
Brutal.............
🤙🏼
She super woman
after watching gee ana... somethin' or other, the original drummer, play "through the fire", what is impressive with junna's performance, and i think why HE reacted as he did, is that while he is an exceptional drummer, himself, to play drums at that speed means, for many drummers, sacrificing a little bit of "the show"... playing close to the kit... whereas junna simple batters the skins without mercy but precisely. at least that's how i compare junna's performance to 3 different performances of gee (and watching the official vid explains why junna takes a drink break... i've watched several "reaction vid" makers wrinkle their foreheads when they see it). her performance is a blur of action and satisfaction. i'm glad she doesn't play the piano, as my life would have no further meaning ;)
Both your reactions to Junna are by far the most entertaining I've seen 😂. Loved it!
Please react to Larnell Lewis, especially his vid on learning Enter Sandman - which is far away as from his genre.
JUNNA is THE TOP FEMALE DRUMMER on the planet. Go ahead and look her name up. I've seen it!! She's freaking awesome and all those facial looks are so perfect, so spot on to what she does on a five piece drum kit! Imagine JUNNA sitting behind any of Neil (The Professor) Peart's drum kits!!! Okay. Okay.
Your delusional. She's nowhere close. Because she's only good at one thing. Playing fast. Youoka is by far the best. She can play any speed and any type of music.
Thouht that Yoshiki was a wild drummer... even Hideki Aoyama is super fast.
And then you get a wee little Japanese girl called Junna
Respect
Great react.
From Spain
Hahahhahahha i can't stop laughing 😆.... wow.. she's amazing
Divine.
When your Asian parent tells you that you need to learn an instrument, but you are a metal head at heart...
I think she is 24
Guys, watch her played drum with TRiDENT-Japan(KAKUMEI) songs MV Voltage, No Regret, Utopia before she left the Band, but the new drummer played just like her..... :)
I think that the new drummer fit more than Junna, I"m not talking that she is better or worst, its just a feeling that Junna on this band is far ahead with his drums, the band are in one place and Junna is just acelerating, leting everybody behind, eating smoke.
