This performance, which fans call 'Moabanger', was at Legend M (the M stands for Moa) which took place to celebrate her 20th birthday in her home town of Nagoya, hence the special performance of Headbanger with her taking the main vocals for the second half of the song. You're right that Moa sings beautifully in her own right, and it would be nice to see her given more chances to take the lead vocal, but when she has been asked about it in the past, she has said that she doesn't like the pressure of being lead vocalist and prefers her current role and focusing mainly on her dancing. Whether that is her real opinion, or is simply the official Babymetal line she is towing is anyone's guess. OTFGK There is also a performance of Headbanger with Yui on the main vocal from 2014, which was also to celebrate her birthday, but it was at a much smaller show and there is no pro-shot version of that one, just a few fancams (th-cam.com/video/dALBl50wH1w/w-d-xo.html ). Had Yui stayed with Babymetal until her 20th birthday, I'm sure she would have gotten a Legend Y show in Yokohama (which is in her home prefecture of Kanagawa) and gotten to sing Headbanger like Moa did. If the reports are correct and Momoko is installed as the third official member of Babymetal at the upcoming shows on April 1st and 2nd in Yokohama, there is a high chance that we will get 'Momokobanger', since Momoko turned 20 just a couple of weeks ago.
So that's why the number 20 is in the lyrics as i read them again. That's so awesome! Thank you once again for the terrific info!!! I don't know much about Momoko, I would love to see her perform one as well. I think at this point she gets that honor.

This was a live compilation mixed with the live at "BABYMETAL ARISES: Beyond The Moon - Legend M" 2019 at Nagoya city, her hometown. This is the year they began with the _avengers_ backup dancers system filling the third spot YuiMetal left when leaving the group officially in 2018, Kano Fujihira is the name of this avenger, but remember no other group member got official name revealed, only SuMetal and MoaMetal are the front women of the group. The other one you saw is Momoko Okazaki from another live at Legend Metal Galaxy Day 2 2020, an epic NotACult moment. This was MoaMetal 20th special birthday.

See you next time and as always put your kitsune up! 🦊🤘🔥
Great reaction (edit - sorry, nearly forgot to call you Muffin-Metal). Legend M was Moametal's 20th birthday celebration with the special concerts in her home town - 20 is the official "coming of age" in Japan (unless it has changed to 18 more recently?), so it was a very special occasion. 'Headbanger' is originally about a girl going to her first concert on her 15th birthday (15 being another special age in Japan as that is when compulsory education ends and they are having to take that first step into life deciding on a career or further education). They changed the lyrics here from "... this special night of my 15 ..." to 20 (that first happened at Legend S in Su's home town Hiroshima in December 2017 to celebrate her 20th).. At concerts on or near their 15th birthdays in 2014 Su handed the mic and stand to Yui (in Paris) and Moa (in Cologne) in exactly the same way as she handed it to Moa in this one and they each took over lead vocals ... only fan cam videos exist for those. Moa has a lovely voice, but she doesn't want to be the lead vocalist. I am just as impressed with how Su steps into her place in the choreo and never misses a beat.
"only fan cam videos exist for those." Well, strictly speaking, their are snippets in an official Babymetal intro video, so their is an other recording.
"unless it has changed to 18 more recently?" That's correct. Japanese civil law about "coming of age" changed on April 1st 2022 (sound familiar?) for the first time in the last 140 years. They still can't do until 20: to drink alcohol, to smoke, gambling, obtain a truck or other heavy vehicle license or to affiliate to the national pension system.
excellent content Muffin-Metal, looks like my kitsune brothers have already arrived and given you the details, so yeah BABYMETAL is awesome, checkout "From Dusk Till Dawn" live at Budokan 2021 and see and hear for yourself the epic-ness
Moa chan ❤ The Legend M show was friggin amazing not only performance wise but also the spectacle of the show, the stage setup, the set list, the band, the girls, everything was spectacular. It was held to celebrate Moa’s 20th birthday which is why the lyrics for the song were changed from 15 to 20. Moa tried to mimic Su’s death stare but couldn’t help herself in the end and gave us that super kawaii little smirk ❤. Moa said in an interview that she doesn’t want more major singing lines and that she is happy with her role as scream and dance. So there is that. Nice reaction muffin-metal, keep em coming! 🤘🔥🦊
People went ape shit because it so rarely happens when she sings a solo. She is happy doing exactly what she's doing letting Su-metal lead the vocals (she absolutely loves listening to Su-metal sing) and has no interests in performing entire solos by herself. People really need to stop pushing for more Moa solos or vocals. It's not what she wants to do. And yes, the delight you felt is felt by all of the fans. It's a treat to go to a concert close to her birthday because you might just get a gift from lovely Moametal. At this point in their lives, they already had been singing and dancing for almost 9 years with Sakura Gakuin and Babymetal. So the girls are very well experienced with singing and dancing at the same time. The Avenger in this video is Kano Fujihara, who also was part of Sakura Gakuin. I believe she was almost 15 years old at this concert.
8:19 Yes, Su is a badass. At anything she does she goes 110%, whether in a starring or support. As you dig deeper into the history of BABYMETAL and then Sakura Gakuin, you see how extremely close they are, especially Su and Moa who absolutely adore Su
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 This is a compilation from several shows including one at The Forum, California on Oct. 11, 2019 but the part of Moa singing is properly captured 😄. Devilish evil smirk on the archangel's face ! Moabanger reminds me that Lucifer is a fallen angel 🤔 In two-day show in Legend-M (July 2019), "Moabanger" was the 12th song in the setlist. Moa sang it in a stable manner without getting short of breath after exhausting dancing for 11 songs + the first part of Headbanger until Su handed the mic to Moa. Only a huge amount of exercise like an athlete enables a girl to get such a big cardio capacity on top of training as a dancer. Her arms look dainty but I saw several photos showing her biceps brachii and brachioradialis in good shape that I admire as a workout lover 😄 。 She is another monster. No, lovely Moanstar.
For the reasons you mentioned, I’m still confused by my feelings for Moametal. I personally have not encountered a better vocalist than Su-Metal in 60 years. I don’t have enough praise to drop on that young women! However, Moametal always, always steals my heart. She can be serious, playful and even a little devilish. She has talent far beyond normal humans. Her, singing, dance, stamina, and most importantly charisma is unmatched! I know many people of talent from every field you can imagine, but not one of them would make me drop my life and become a monk; except Moametal. I would say my greatest desire would be to meet Moa. However, my greatest desire is to meet Moa’s parents! Seriously, how does anyone create, raise, or educate a women like that. I don’t care what spiritual beliefs you may have, but she is not of our Earthly world. There is no other women alive like Moametal. When all else seemed lost, to include my faith / Religion, Moa was still their to guide my decisions. All hail the Princess. PS- just a fan and retired, military officer, not someone stalker.
I wonder if there are videos on Moa-Metal's workout routines. The shows are enough workout for anyone, but I'm sure she has another routine that she follows to keep these performances up night after night that make her more stable on her feet.
One of the few reactors I recall mentioning Su in this. Moa is great, but what gets me the most is that Su performing Moas choreo perfectly. OK… Moas smirk is up there too. I love their professionalism… it has to have come with a price for them… inspirational.
sad u didnt realise the significance.. it just makes the song sooooo much more touching and adds a dimension to the baby metal lore. Moa is just.. there is no way to describe.. as much as Su is the main singer.. it's not the same band if Moa is not there.. you picked up on how unusual it was and u went with it.. damn good reaction.. cheers bro! .......... and she friggin owned it!!!
I believe Moa winked and did crush a mountain lots of injuries. She had to register her wink as a deadly weapon. She previously had to register her dimples as one in the past.
The thing about Moa is in literally ANY other idol group she would be the lead/Ace. Any other. She's that good it's only because Su is, well, Su that Moa isn't. Su's own sister, Himeka (Himetan) who was an idol and could sing VERY good, has said that no one sings like her. That's just the talent set on this group.
👍 👍 I see where at the end of the video it almost played Megitsune LIVE from the K.S. Channel as well. K.S. Has a great Pro Shot Video of Megitsune LIVE (which was set to play before you stopped it). If you have a chance you should go back and react to it. It is a great show. Also I do not remember fans being split on Karate as most fans consider it one of BabyMetal’s best songs (especially LIVE as all BabyMetal performances should be heard instead of MV’s - my opinion of course). Until next time.
Its spesial day for moa she birthday so she sing😅😅 Are you guys realize the lyric song has change From in this night spesial 15".. To this night spesial 20" In englis version...😂😂😂 Ya spesial for moa🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's not your computer. TH-cam is very annoying. The more you pause a video the more you run the chance that it will change the resolution. And every bloody time there is a f***ing commercial in changes it.
The grin/smirk Moa had when she raised the mic stand . This is her bday party and shes not gonna let you forget it. 🥰🥰🥰🤘🦊🤘
🤘🏻🦊🎂👑
“Moa could wink and crush a mountain” is now on my list of best things I’ve ever heard.😂

Thank you so much! she did a pretty good job channeling that Su-Metal energy, but we got a quick peekypoo of that Moa glance. What a great event.
This is a real treat. Moa taking over the lead vocals is awesome, of course, but watching Su in her dancing role is a real pleasure as well.
Agreed!

The world needs more Moa-Metal! :D Can'T wait for more songs with Su and Moa both singing.
"You can't be giving out glares like that, Moa."

SUPER MOA ❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥
i swear by god, Moa is the cutest girl in the entire world.
Love how casually she uses the bedazzled mic stand as a walking cane for a moment there
Moa Metal for the win…
It only happens on special occasions but I love all the girls. I wish this would happen more often.
Hi from San Francisco California
Babymetal 💕 🤟
Rock on!
MOA ITS JUST REALLY CUTE
Moa knows exactly what she is doing. And it destroys us all
There exists a fan cam where Yui takes the mic on this song.
I believe Moa winked and did crush a mountain lots of injuries. She had to register her wink as a deadly weapon. She previously had to register her dimples as one in the past.
I wonder if she is allowed on planes? I'm pretty sure those dimples are explosive devices. LOL!!!!

There is the yui version too. They all did it on their birthday
I subscribed your reaction channel because of Dolla and my Babymetal
I've got more coming in the future. Especially when Babymetal's new album hits this year. Thank you!
