      Babymetal has been a band since 2010. They began as a subunit of the Japanese idol group Sakura Gakuin, and broke off from the group in 2013. Originally it consisted of Su-Metal, Yuimetal, and Moametal. Yuimetal left in 2018 due to health reasons. The third girl in this video is one of a trio of dancers known as the Avengers who performed with the band from 2019-2023. They now have a new member named Momometal who officially joined in April and was one of the Avengers. They have a backing band called the Kami Band, which is a rotation of professional musicians.

    Nobody ever seems to notice that they are dancing on an elevated platform that is moving in two dimensions while they dance- and they are making it look like nothing! I admit, there's a lot going on in this video, but them making this all look so easy is evidence of how hard they work. Saw them in Dallas last year, and they were just as amazing as I expected.

    Great reaction, thanks and welcome to BABYMETAL.
    This music video has the studio recording over the visuals from a concert called BABYMETAL Awakens - The Sun also rises (day 2) held at Yokohama Arena in late June 2019 with a sold out crowd of about 17K people (that's the arena's nominal capacity). Funnily enough their next two concerts will be held right there. 😁
    "PA PA YA!" is a summer festival fun song about a Thai spicy green salad and it never fails to put one in a good mood when it's needed.
    They are very diverse musically as they like to mix any music genre with metal. So, always expect the unexpected.
    Until next time!

    Good reaction. Welcome to the crazy universe of BabyMetal.
    BabyMetal is an atypical heavy metal group, because they are idols. In Japan, idols are often paired with pop music (Jpop), and Babymetal was actually a subgroup of a larger idol group called Sakura Gakuin.
    Sakura was made up of girls between 10 and 15 years old dedicated to Jpop. When SuMetal (the singer) started she was 12 years old and MoaMetal/YuiMetal (the backup singers) were only 10 years old. Sakura represented the Japanese high school and the girls were distributed in clubs (traditional Japanese extracurricular activities such as cooking, swimming, basketball, sewing, etc.).
    One of the producers, a lover of heavy metal, saw that Su's singing could perfectly be used in metal and asked permission from the Mother House (Amuse) to create the heavy music club, proposing an experiment in fusion between metal and the pop. Nobody, as they themselves have confessed, had much hope for its outcome, but they gave it the green light and thus BabyMetal, Sakura Gakuin's heavy music club, was born.
    The first songs were intended for girls between 10 and 15 years old, who were Sakura's target audience. However, their quality and the fusion between pop and metal attracted attention beyond this audience and they began to frequent their metal concerts... a shocking audience of children and metalheads.
    And it worked, it worked so well that they began to support groups like Metallica, Red Hot, BMTH or Lady Gaga, I seem to remember, on their tours in Japan. And the Red Hot singer commented that he was impressed to realize that part of the public came to see them, not them.
    And so the base of BabyMetal fans grew. Sakura was a group in which, upon turning 15, the members had to leave (to pursue their careers elsewhere) and the producer (KobaMetal) requested permission again to create BabyMetal as an independent group. Success was already beginning to become a reality in Asia, so they authorized it, although Moa and Yui (they were still 13 years old) would also continue to be part of other Sakura clubs (I don't know when the poor girls studied, but they did).
    In 2014 a milestone would arrive in the group's history. They were already an established metal group in Asia that sold out concerts, but they had not yet made the leap to the West. In that year his song "Gimme Chocolate" rose to fame on TH-cam (currently 182M views) and attracted the attention of the producers of the Sonisphere festival. KobaMetal had doubts about taking the step, since their musical proposal (Kawaii Metal or Cute Metal, a genre of which they are considered creators) might not be accepted in the West and the metalheads who went to the Sonisphere had a reputation for saying goodbye to very bad manners to the artists they didn't like (even with bottles full of urine), but they were offered to go to one of the secondary stages (about 5000 spectators) and they ended up accepting.
    But the success of BabyMetal on TH-cam and the fact that all the concerts they were going to give in Europe were sold out in a few days, convinced the producers to take them to the main stage, where they would share with groups like Metallica, for example.
    How many girls (they were between 16 and 14 years old at that time) were "terrified" before going out, and they didn't know what scared them more: that they wouldn't understand their music and they would have to run away or that when they went out on stage it would be empty. .
    But the story was very different, not only was it not empty, but more than 50,000 metalheads, an estimated 95% of whom had never heard of them, finished their fifth and last song chanting "another one, another one."
    And that's how they achieved popularity in the West as well.
    They currently have 4 albums on the market:
    -Babymetal (2013): Their first album and the most childish of all, since they were between 15-13 years old when it came out and had energetic, positive music that left a smile on their faces.
    -Metal Resistence (2016): an album that, without losing the essence of the first, shows more mature music, going from childhood to adolescence. Songs like Karate were a large part of his presentation in the West.
    -Metal Galaxy (2018): a turning point in its style. Without abandoning their energy, they turned their attention to new forms of metal fusion (hip-hop, dance music, Hindu music or European folklore, among others), projecting a much more mature music in keeping with their age, which was already around 21 years old. of Su and the 18 of Moa (unfortunately Yui left the group due to health problems). Pa Pa Ya is from this album.
    And now in 2023 they have just released their new album "The Other One", which is, again, totally different from what they have done until now (one of the hallmarks of BabyMetal is that their songs are usually very different some from others (although they are all positive adrenaline releases).
    Currently BabyMetal is considered the most important Heavy Metal group in Japan (I'm not saying the best, that's for everyone to decide) and the most influential in history in the West (it has reached levels that no other Japanese heavy group has reached before). ).
    The journey through the Babymetal galaxy may be long, but it is certainly entertaining and with a few songs it drags you with a smile into the fox hole

      ​@@armitage9 They were essentially complimenting the thoroughness of your explanation.
      I think I might classify Dir en grey as being more influential than BabyMetal, though. I'm definitely not saying you're wrong about that, but I'm not sure if BabyMetal would have been as successful as they were, especially in the west, without Dir en grey bringing attention to Japanese rock and metal in general starting with the 2006 Family Values Tour. It's impossible to know for sure how BabyMetal's career would have gone without earlier Japanese bands like Dir en grey building popularity outside Japan, of course, but I can remember starting to hear a lot more about Japanese music coming out of more mainstream sources immediately following that tour. I even remember Jonathan Davis doing an interview about their "little singer that rips his mouth open and bleeds everywhere."

    BABYMETAL has been active for 13 years, but even SU-METAL, the oldest member of the group, is only 26 years old. Their album METAL GALAXY, which includes this song, became the first Asian artist to reach No. 1 on Billboard's Top Rock Albums. The song features Thai rapper F. Hero, and BABYMETAL has also previously collaborated with BRING ME THE HORIZON, Arch Enemy, TPolyphia's im Henson and Scott LePage, Sabaton's JOAKIM BRODEN, Tom Morello, and Lil Uzi Vert.

    Officially, BABYMETAL is just the three ladies, and they are from Japan. Their backing band is all male. They actually have two backing bands - the Eastern kami band (Japanese), which backs them in Asia and some European shows, and the Western kami band (American), which backs them in the Americas and some European shows. BABYMETAL is HUGE! They are Japan's biggest musical export since X-Japan in the 80s. They started out in 2010, when lead singer Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto) was just 12 years old, and then-backups Moametal (Moa Kikuchi) and Yui-metal (Yui Mizuno) were 11. Yui left in 2018 due to health reasons, and her spot was taken by a rotating trio of dancers called the Avengers (Avenger Kano Fujihara is the Avenger in this video) from 2018 to 2023. In early 2023, one of the Avengers Momoko Okazaki (now Momo-metal) was elevated to full member status, and they are once again an official trio. They completed a US Tour co-headlining with Dethklok in 2023 (I caught the show in St. Louis; I also saw the original trio in Chicago back in 2016). They have done collabs with several international superstars. Just in 2023, they did collabs with Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine) and Lil' Uzi Vert. Previously, they did collabs with Bring Me the Horizon, Tim Henson and Scott LaPage (Polyphia), Alyssa White-Gluz (Arch Enemy), Joachim Broden (Sabaton), Dragonforce, and appeared in a video with Corey Taylor (Slipknot). The guest rapper in this video is F. Hero, one of the biggest rappers in Thailand. The song Pa-Pa-Ya does make reference to the papaya fruit and salad, but it more broadly refers to the popularity of summer festivals, where those dishes are symbolic of summer fun.

    Welcome to the Fox Hole.
    Babymetal has been around for 13 years now. They started as a subgroup of the japanese idol band Sakura Gakuin, as the Heavy Club (Sakura Gakuin was themed around school). They were 12, 11 and 11 when they started, and are now 26, 24 and 20 (one member changed). They are Su-Metal (26, lead singer and lyrics writer for the fourth album), Moametal (24, screaming and dancing) and Momometal (20, screaming and dancing) who replaced Yuimetal (24, screaming and dancing).
    They are VERY popular. Their first album got to number two in Bilboard Japan and toped the iTunes Metal in Germany. In 2016, they were the highest japanese band of history in the UK's Official Chart thanks to their second album and in 2019 they became the first ever asian act to top the Bilboard Rock Albums chart thanks to their third album.
    If you decide to continue reacting to Babymetal, I would suggest to check out how they started by watching their very first song: "Doki Doki Morning".

    Welcome to the Foxhole! 🤘🦊🤘
    Most of the truly important information has been or will be given in other comments, so I like to give the fun titles and nicknames given by The ONE (Babymetal’s Fan-base) as well as other (un)important information.
    BABYMETAL started as an experimental sub-unit of the larger JPop/JRock group Sakura Gakuin.
    Suzuka Nakamoto\Su-Metal (Vocals and Dance): Angel of Song, Queen Su, Queen of Kawaii, Metal Queen, and Metal Goddess.
    Before Sakura Gakuin, she performed in a stage production of "The Adventurers" and was a member of the JPop trio, Karen Girls.
    Fun Fact: Bullfrogs are her Kryptonite
    Yui Mizuno\Yuimetal (Scream and Dance) Former member since 2018: Angel of Dance, Princess Yui, Tomato Princess, Tomato-Kun, Kawaii Princess and Devourer of Souls (or at least she stares into your soul). Yui had a minor role as a child actor in a Japanese TV Drama before joining Sakura Gakuin. She has cute, chubby cheeks.
    Fun Fact: Yui is tickled by Bullfrogs.
    ** WARNING ** Do NOT, ever, under any circumstances call her “small”, "smol", “short” or “tiny” (same rule applies to Moametal).
    Moa Kikuchi\Moametal (Scream and Dance): Angel of Love\Smile, Queen of Hearts, Princess Moa, Kawaii Princess, Super Moa-chan, Maiden of Mischief, and Headmistress of Hedabon. She has huge dimples and a smile that melts the hardest of hearts.
    Fun Fact: Loves to troll Su-metal on-stage with little pranks as well as torment Su-metal with Bullfrogs.
    Momoko Okazaki\Momometal (Scream and Dance): Angel of Joy, Kawaii Princess, Princess Peach, Vampire Slayer, Kabuki Queen. Also a Sakura Gakuin graduate. Was a contestant on the Korean reality survival program "Girls Planet 999" (which thankfully for The ONE, she was eliminated from early on) and performed in a stage musical production of "Black Butler". Momoko was the only “Avenger” (see below) to perform in the “10 BABYMETAL Budokan” shows in 2021 and was officially named Momometal and made a permanent member in April 2023. She deserves the spot!
    Fun Fact: Momoko's father is a popular comedian in Japan known for making dead-pan jokes. Momoko worked very hard to make her way without using his name as a crutch.
    BLACK BABYMETAL: Yuimetal and Moametal performing as a duet while Su-metal takes a breather. Also known as “MoiMoi”. There are 4 BBM songs (GJ!, Onedari Daiskusen, 4 No Uta\Song 4, and Sis. Anger) some of which Moametal performed solo a few times after Yui's departure. Now that Momometal is a member, we are hoping for more BBM songs with MoMoa! But only the Fox God knows.
    AVENGERS: 3 Dancers who took turns performing the choreography in Yuimetal’s spot after her departure. They were not official members did not have microphones and were not even named. It was the fans who quickly figured out who they were and you will see them in live performances between 2018 and 2021.
    They were:
    Momoko Okazaki (see above).
    Riho Sayashi: Suzuka’s former rival at Actors School Hiroshima, often competing for the same roles. Former “Ultimate Ace” of the JPop Idol group Morning Musume. Now a solo artist.
    Kano Fujihara: (performing in this video) Former Member of Sakura Gakuin, the school-aged Idol group that BABYMETAL was born out of. Like Suzuka and Moa before her, Kano was Student Council President her last year in Sakura Gakuin and like Yui, was considered arguably the best dancer in SG during her time there. She is now a member of the Idol group @onefive, which is comprised of 4 Sakura Gakuin graduates (Kano, Momo, Soyo and Gumi). Kano only performed with BABYMETAL in Japan as she could not travel, likely due to her commitments to Sakura Gakuin and the then developing @onefive.
    We are #notacult.

    One of life's little pleasures as a Babymetal fan is getting to share one someone's first experience of Babymetal. Babymetal has been around since '10 or '12, sorry I've just forgotten. They have a pretty incredible history and should you chose to react to some more of their videos you'll undoubtably see some epic performances in front of huge crowds when they were literally just young teenagers. Obviously they are still going strong now. To me this song is just an epic summer party song and I don't get too hung up on the food stuff. You did a great job with this reaction. Comments, engagement, great vibes. It was fun to watch and as Babymetal tend to leave people feeling good I'd personally love to see you do some more reactions. A personal favorite is the 2023, performance of Monochrome at the PIA Arena in Japan. You got my sub friend and I look forward to future reactions.

    BabyMetal began 2010 there were Suzuka Nakamoto age 12 Moa Kikuchi and Yui Mizuno. Both Moa and Yui were 11 years old All three girls were friends and classmates who attended an idol group (Sakura Gakuin) founded in 2010 by Amuse Talent Agency for girls 10 to 15. Themed around school life (they attended regular school as well) the girls would learn and train at vocals, dancing, public speaking and etiquette, etc., graduate at age 15 and then move onto whatever entertainment path they chose or that suited their talents.
    Key Kobayashi was a music producer for Amuse and heard Suzuka sing at age 9 and was impressed with her strong vocals and stage presence. Kobayashi was a fan of heavy metal but believed that the genre had become stale and tired (especially in Japan) with metal bands getting old Kobayashi believed the genre needed to be reborn (BabyMetal means the birth of a new metal genre). Kobayashi felt that Suzuka had the ability to front a metal band and that her vocals and presence could withstand the metal guitars and drums. The fusion of Jpop and Metal began. He placed Moa and Yui as backup singers/dancers and a phenomenon was about to result.
    At first Amuse showed little interest and the girls had financing mainly from Kobayashi. They performed at strip malls and small venues using clothes borrowed from friends and family. No money for a real band they had friends dressed in homemade skeleton costumes pretending to play instruments to a backtrack. They became a sensation (these young ladies paid their dues). Amuse saw the potential and in 2012 hired the best session musicians Japan had to offer (The Kami Band) who tours with them today (now includes world class musicians from the USA for tours outside of Asia).
    If you choose to explore more of BabyMetal I suggest reacting to LIVE performance videos as this is where they shine.
    They have over 60 LIVE songs/performances and each one is different. They are fearless exploring many genres and have the respect of the legends of Metal such as Metallica, Slipknot, Rob Zombie, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Judas Priest and more.
    Avoid Glastonbury LIVE performances as the sound production by the BBC (who was in charge of that festival did a terrible job - mics not turned on, incorrect volume levels, etc.)
    Suggest reacting to these HQ Pro Shot videos of LIVE performances for a start.

    Their new album in my opinion that released March 24 is amazing with so many different styles.
    Good luck and hope to see you again.

    Babymetal started out as a sub-unit of a Japanese idol group but became independent from them some time later. During live performance they are supported by the Kami band. I have seen them first time in 2018 at Rock am Ring and they slayed it. In May last year I have seen them again as support for Swedish power metal band Sabaton. The Sabaton singer worked together with Babymetal in the past. And Babymetal is the first Japanese metal band to rank in the US Billboard 200 (the album charts).

    A little fun fact that I like!
    When they first reached out to F.HERO about doing a song together.
    F.HERO was worried about writing the lyrics in English, which is obviously not his first language.
    The people behind BabyMetal just said no, do the lyrics in your native tongue.
    And so he did! Giving us this banger.
    The girls in BabyMetal also incorporated dance moves from his country to their dances.

    The three vocal/dance performers are all women. The rapper, F.Hero is a guest performer.
    The backing musicians are the Kami Band. The current incarnations is made up of American guys. They were the band who were engaged to tour with the girls when BABYMETAL went overseas. The original Japanese Kami Band backed them at shows in Japan until recently. They seem to have been replaced by the American version.

  • @Filboid2000
    @Filboid2000 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Well, you’ve opened a can of worms!
    BABYMETAL has an extensive history: they've been around for a bit over thirteen years now (they started when their lead singer - known as Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto) - was about twelve, and the two "cheerleaders" (officially "scream and dance" (backing vocals)) - Moametal (Moa Kikuchi) and Yuimetal (Yui Mizuno) - were both around eleven. Unfortunately, Yui left the band in 2018 because of health concerns, and early in 2023 Momometal (Momoko Okazaki) was named a member of the group. And this is just scratching the surface. They do not play instruments but are backed by the Kami Band - session musicians who are among the best that Japan (and the U.S.) has to offer.
    BABYMETAL started a brand new genre of music ("kawaii metal" - cute metal), and they cannot be pigeon-holed - they are almost always thinking and moving outside box; they made listening to metal FUN! They have, to date, four studio albums, and have been on a number of world tours. It is common knowledge among their devoted fans (known as "The One") that BABYMETAL is best served live, but they do have several music videos that are real works of art. I suggest you go back to the beginning, and react to their first two music videos, "Doki Doki Morning" and "Iine!" (pronounced "E-nay"), both released in 2012. You’ll notice those are the first two on this list of recommended songs:
    Doki Doki Morning (official music video)
    Iine! (official MV)
    Gimme Chocolate!! (official MV or Legend 1997 Apocalypse version)
    Megitsune (official MV)
    BABYMETAL Death (Legend 1997 Apocalypse version) [for those who are religiously sensitive, see the Budokan Black Night 2014 version]
    Onedari Daisakusen (Legend 1997 Apocalypse version)
    Song 4 No Uta (Budokan Black Night 2014 version)
    Uki Uki * Midnight (Budokan Black Night 2014 version)
    Catch Me If You Can (Budokan Black Night 2014 version)
    Ijime, Dame, Zettai (Live at Sonisphere 2014 version)
    Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!! (Legend 1997 Apocalypse version)
    Road of Resistance (Legend 2015 New Year Fox Festival version)
    Karate (official MV)
    Meta Taro (Five Fox Festival version)
    GJ! (Fox Festival 2017 version)
    Sis Anger (Fox Festival 2017 version)
    Shanti Shanti Shanti (official MV)
    Pa Pa Ya!! (official MV)
    BxMxC (official MV)
    Metalizm (official MV)
    Metali!! (official MV)
    I would include the links but, for some reason, TH-cam sometimes thinks I'm posting spam and will delete my comment. For the links, see the TH-cam playlist “BABYMETAL Top Twenty”; it is a mix of MV’s and live performances, is more or less in historical sequence, and could be considered a road map down the BABYMETAL foxhole. If nothing else, it can be used as a reference to find high quality versions of BABYMETAL songs without mucking about - if they are on the list. Anyway . . . .
    Another recommendation (read "challenge"): react to an entire BABYMETAL concert. I suggest "Legend 1997 Apocalypse" and/or "Budokan Black Night" (2014). There are playlists for both on the HEAD123456 TH-cam channel. Both concerts are, in a word, incredible.
    Enjoy your trip down the foxhole! (You're in for a wild ride!!!)
    Keep rockin' BABYMETAL!!! (Sorry about the wall!)
    KITSUNE UP!!! 🤘🦊🤘

    BABYMETAL 101
    Babymetal is a Japanese group founded in 2010 and produced by Kei “Koba” Kobayashi from the Amuse Inc. talent agency. Babymetal name comes from the birth of a new style of metal fusing j-pop with metal creating what they call Kawaii Metal (Cute-Metal).
    The group currently consists of Suzuka Nakamoto aka “Su-Metal” (25 years old) sometimes referred to as Vocal and Dance. Moa Kikuchi aka "Moametal", pronounced as Moa-Metal (23 years old) as part of Scream and Dance. Momoko Okazaki aka Momometal (20 years old) as part of Scream and Dance. They are supported by a rotating selection of talented male backing musicians known as the Kami Band (Kami is usually poorly translated as gods, but in truth it more closely means awe inspiring spirit, entity, or object) It is why they are dressed in white to look like ghosts or spirits, though Kami being used as God(s) is so common in translation the white outfits get lost.)
    Past Formations.
    Heavy Music Club Era (2010-2012)
    From 2010 to 2012 Babymetal consists of a three-member formation, Suzuka Nakamoto (Age 12), Moa Kikuchi (Age 10), and Yui Mizuno aka "Yuimetal" pronounced Yui-Metal. (Age 10). First starting out as the Heavy Music Club as a subunit within the Developmental Idol Group created by Amuse in 2010 known as Sakura Gakuin. Sakura Gakuin is a group that introduces girls between the ages of 10-15 to music, dance, modeling, and acting through Japanese Pop idol music and culture. Given a school theme, all three would be a part of Sakura Gakuin until their graduation from it in the same school year they would graduate from Japanese middle school or 15 years old. Suzuka graduated in March 2013, and Moa and Yui in March of 2015. Sakura Gakuin is a fantastic group with great kawaii jpop songs in their own right. During this time there was no lore, and the girl’s costumes were more punkish in nature, which they helped create. They also didn’t perform with live music, using a backing track or the “Skeleton band” people pretending to play music behind them.

    Babymetal/ Metal Resistance Era (2012-2017)
    Starting in 2012 with the Legend I concert, Babymetal began its slow divorce from Sakura Gakuin, and was the first introduction of the Kami Band as well as the “Lore” that is still heavily involved in Babymetal but makes far less sense than it did during this time. The Lore is complex and involves a battle against other evil idol corporations, gaining powers, some time travel, running a resistance group, all at the direction of a mythical deity known as the fox god, against an all-power enemy known as Akiba. The first Legend show “I” was the Kami Bands introduction to the end, but it also had the Skeleton Band which is seen in the wildly popular Gimmie Chocolate Music Video. This was followed by Legend D, and then Legend Z, in which it was learned that Babymetal would continue as its own entity after Suzuka’s graduation from Sakura Gakuin in March of 2013. Slowly over 2013 the Skeleton Band would be phased out of all live shows, as Babymetal came into their own.
    Babymetal as it is with Su-Metal, Moametal, Yuimetal, the Kami Band, and a somewhat understandable lore is what consisted for the majority of its existence. Also established beyond the 3-member formation, they had 2 other set ups, one was what fans called Su-Solos, and it would just be Su on stage with the Kami band, performing a solo, and the other is known as Black Babymetal by the band themselves, which consisted of just Moa and Yui.

    The Dark Times, The Chosen 7 Era (2018)
    In December 2017, Yui would miss the Legend-S concert for health reasons, these health problems would prosiest into 2018 and greatly affect the 2018 touring season bring the “Chosen 7” formation, consisting of Suzuka Nakamoto, Moa Kikuchi, and 2 backing dancers Minako Maruyama, and Minami Tsukui. Changes they would not tell fans and all throughout 2018 communicate extraordinarily little causing lots of pain for all involved fan and performer. This era is noted by their strange armor like costumes, sometimes referred to as Elf Armor. To make the poor communication, and Yui’s absence wasn’t bad enough, one of the more regular Kami band members, Mikio Fujioka passed away after falling off a balcony in late December 2017 while star gazing. A beloved and incredibly talented musician lost, leaving behind his wife and only child.
    In September 2018 Yui formally resign from Babymetal, stating her unspecified health and wishing to move on. Babymetal themselves announced that the group will move on focusing on Suzuka and Moa. (Something many idiots within the fandom refused or were too stupid to understand and formed the cancerous Yui-Cultists that would plague the fandom until Momometals debut. There are some holdouts, but thankfully they have become very rare.)
    In October Babymetal had a concert called Dark Night Carnival which added dancers, Shoko Akiyama, Saya Hirai, and Kotono, placing a total of seven girls on stage. This was also done without warning to fans and was an absolute mess. Babymetal would finish off the 2018 tour season returning to the 3-member formation with just Saya Hirai joining them in southeast Asia and Australia. Ending one of the most troubling times in Babymetal’s history.

    Metal Galaxy Era (2019- Feb 2020)
    First introduced in 2019 during the Babymetal Arises concert in Yokohama, before the start, the “Avenger” support dancer concept was explained in the lore, and the concept thanks to communication and a maintaining of the 3-member formation brought Babymetal out of dark times brought about during 2018. Babymetal seemed to have returned to its roots with the Avengers, as 2 of the three (Kano and Momoko) come from Sakura Gakuin. The third Riho, went to the same performing arts school as Suzuka during the same time, Actors School Hiroshima aka ASH.

    Which Avenger one sees can be confusing for those new to Babymetal. For the Music Videos, Pa Pa Ya, Elevator Girl, and Shanti Shanti Shanti, it is Kano Fujihira, who was just 14 years old at the time. Da Da Dance is a compilation of Momoko and Riho and a splicing of 2 different shows. In most fan cam videos of the American and European tour it would be either Riho or Momoko, as they toured with Babymetal in 2019. Kano had responsibilities with Sakura Gakuin as its president, a position Suzuka and Moa both held in Sakura Gakuin, and she’s never flown on a plane before.
    Some fans for 2019 did throw a stupid temper tantrum over the use of new Kami Band members who are from the west now known as the West Coast Kami Band, but like how the girls won over many, so did they and the payoff with the Legend Metal Galaxy concert in 2020 was well worth it.

      COVID Era (Mar 2020 to April 2021)
      COIVD-19 has messed up a lot of things for everyone, Babymetal had to cancel their Asian tour, as well their big 10th Anniversary on October 10, 2020. Forced to keep it rather tame something very unlike Babymetal as even in their failures like the entire 2018 tour they do it septically. The question for many fans at the time was what of the Avengers, since COVID, Avenger Riho Sayashi has signed with a new agency and has moved on to other projects, including starting a fan club. Kano Fujihara graduated from Sakura Gakuin on August 30, 2020, a near 4-month delay. However, she and fellow Sakura Gakuin graduates Soyoka Yoshida, Tsugumi Aritomo, and Momoe Mori in the formation of @onefive. Which leaft Momoko Okazaki who is a graduate of Sakura Gakuin in March 2018 would be the last standing Avenger until she would become the new member of Babymetal.

      Post 10-year Anniversary/ Covid Era Part 2 (May 2021-September 2022)
      The band stepped back from live shows due to the Covid-19 Pandemic and focusing on the sale of Merch. There were a few months of a pure break with Su, and Moa taking some time thinking about their future as they stated in an interview. This was a short few months (Their words) they went quickly back to work in less than a year logistically speaking as they spent time working on a new concept album the choreography and planning the massive world tour in 2023. The word hiatus is used a lot, and some idiots thought BM might never comeback or believe this was a true hiatus. Ignore their drama they just want attention, it was nothing like a true hiatus, people who claim it was are liars. They took a short break the girls took a few months to reflect but were back making their 4th album working on the choreograph and setting up their largest world tour in the groups history. You have to be an idiot to think they set all of that up in like 2 months.
      Momoko had a very very short stint in a Korean Idol Competition Show called Planet 99. She performed perfectly, better than most of the other girls in the show. She even got the most votes in a small side competition destroying all the other 98 girls in the show in votes. This won her some hair dye (She was blonde for a bit). Ultimately be it dumb BM fans thinking the side competition was the actual competition, how the judging was heavily skewed to Korean voters, the fact that her fate was tied to 2 other girls one Korean and one Chinese, and or possibly ridged voting something the company producing the show has done in the past, Momoko was eliminated in the very first round.
      The Other One (October 2022-April 2023)
      They had released 5 songs on TH-cam, and they performed a show in January 2023 where they performed these new songs leading up to the released of their Album in March with 10 new songs. During January and February shows Su and Moa were supported by Momoko. On April First (Fox Day) Their new show played many new and old songs as well as officially made Momoko Okazaki aka Momometal the official 3rd member. Bringing Babymetal back to a 3-member unit once again. This all kicked off their world tour in touring with Sabaton in Europe then Asia and Australia, and tours in US in the fall and a solo tour in Europe in winter, with a tour finally in Japan in 2024. All of this is proof there was no true hiatus, just sensational fans who want to make things more dramatic than they truly were.

      The New Era of Babymetal (April 2023-Current)
      After doing what Su-Metal described in Interviews as the Training Beginning, Su, Moa, and Momo toured Europe with Sabaton, then had solo tours in Asia and Australia, before returning to Japan and having a few solo shows along with hitting the Summer Sonic and other Festivals in Japan before their major tour in the United States with DETHKLOK in September. They spent some time in October to do a festival in Japan and perform with Bring Me the Horizon in their song Kingslayer live for the first time. They completed their EU Tour and are taking a break as they prepare for 2024 with shows in Okinawa and Legend MM For Momoko’s birthday. They also already have many 2024 festival dates in the US and EU and solo shows in Spain.

    Good first reaction and welcome to the BABYMETAL Foxhole.🦊Yes, they are a Japanese band formed in 2010, there were 3 original members (they were only 12 and 11 years old at the time) and we have watched them grow up and become one of the very best live acts on the planet.
    This performance was filmed on the second night at the start of their 2019 tour.
    BABYMETAL are Su-metal (lead vocalist), Moametal and Momometal (in charge of backing vocals, harmonies and mainly hyping and involving the crowd with their choreo).
    The original third member Yuimetal last performed in October 2017 and was absent for 12 months for health reasons until she announced she was still not fully recovered and would be leaving the band.
    Momometal, was revealed as the new official third member on 1st April 2023.
    F Hero was their guest for this song. He is a rapper from Thailand and very well known there, he flew in to Japan specially to perform on those first two nights of the tour. They performed in Bangkok in Thailand just a few months ago and F Hero made another special guest appearance.
    'PA PA YA' is a summer festival song - and it really is about a spicy green papaya fruit salad. F Hero was rapping in Thai to the same rhythm as mixing the ingredients for the salad with a mortar and pestle.
    They are pretty much saying that, much like the salad, mixing the right spices into life will make that better too.
    BABYMETAL are like nothing you will have seen or heard before, they brought a fusion of great metal instrumentals coupled with JPop hooks, melodies and aesthetics to create their very own sub-genre ... and they have continued to develop and evolve from those beginnings.
    They don't limit themselves to any one main style or genre and you won't be able to pigeonhole or put them in any one box like you can with virtually every other band in the world, they are one of a kind and they invented their own genre and style that nobody has been able to copy successfully (some have tried, none came close) including bringing choreographed dancing to metal (but not as you might know it from pop acts where it is nearly always used just to fill the stage or give you almost naked girls (and boys) to look at to take your mind off often bland music).
    BABYMETAL's choreo helps with interpreting the song - a lyric or the meaning etc, but it is designed to involve and lead the crowd, to give them their cues when to jump, shout, pump their fists, chant and so on. BABYMETAL are complete masters of crowd control and crowd involvement.
    They are supported in live shows by the Kami Band - some of Japan's very best session musicians, each one of them a world class instrumentalist.
    A bit later than this concert in 2019 the Kami Band of the West (American musicians) were introduced and they have been supporting BABYMETAL on their more extended foreign tours since then.
    They have nearly 70 songs now, every one of them is different from the last. They have songs in virtually every metal genre but will mix in other musical styles and genres with the metal, often when you least expect it. Some songs lean towards their pop roots others are just good hard metal and they do everything in between - so if you don't like one song no problem - try another, the chances are you'll love it.
    Don't worry about not understanding the language (they do throw in the occasional English word or phrase and they have 4 songs in English) - there are countless songs supposedly sung in English that I can't make out what is being said (or that I wish I didn't understand). If BABYMETAL want you to feel a certain way or an emotion they will do it. As Su-metal once said when she was first finding out about metal and how she should appreciate it "Don't think. Feel."

    BABYMETAL is a Japanese group created in 2010, its members are yui metal, su metal and moa metal (currently Yui metal no longer belongs to the group due to personal problems, so now it is momo metal). Its genre is "Kawaii metal"
