60 yrs here. First time hearing BM Elation...joy...thank you !!!! Such a change from anything ever heard in my metal world. Refreshing . I'm almost exclusively a female Japanese metal band man now.🤘😎🤘
I had this damn song on repeat for 2 days when I first discovered BabyMetal. I am a Metalhead and Punk Rocker and I love what the girls did. They made Metal fun and cute which I didn't think was even possible.
Great reaction. 'Gimme Chocolate' is one of their fun songs (they just want some chocolate but worry about their weight ... but it is chocolate, it would be so nice and they would be so happy, so can they just have a piece of chocolate please).🍫🍫🍫 It is not their best by a long way, but this was the official video that went viral in 2014 and got them a lot of their early attention, it is also their most viewed song. They still play it in most of their concerts (the official video is 10 years old now, it was filmed in December 2013 - well done finding a good live performance instead of that) it is great fun when you experience it in person and it always gets a great reception from the crowd - and you wouldn't believe the mosh pits it starts, but you will struggle to find another song they've done that sounds quite like this one. To answer your question, yes it got them a lot of attention - but there is a big WTF factor with this one and it (along with other misinformation, untruths, misunderstandings and some blatant ignorance) got them some trolls and haters. Some of them never got past the "atatatatatatatata dokyun" ... those people seem to find it impossible to hear anything but that regardless of what song they might listen to and how different that other song might be. This was the official video, so although it was filmed at a live show (Legend 1997) the audio is from the studio recording. The live audio was better, but even then the instrumentals were pre-recorded ... BABYMETAL couldn't always afford a live band and during the period when they were transitioning from separating from their parent Idol group to becoming and independent band in their own right they were phasing the Kami Band in to play live bit by bit. The Kami band played at a couple of festivals and the encores in a few shows between October 2012 and December 2013. For the rest of those shows the instrumentals were pre-recorded and guys in skeleton suits (Babybones) would be on stage waving guitars and rubber drumsticks about, but they were not playing the music. You may have seen them in the background in this video. Legend 1997 (December 2013) was the the final stage of the transition period and the last time the Kami band only came on for the encores. Their next big shows were at the Budokan in Tokyo in March 2014 and the Kami Band became the full time support for all live shows from then on. Yuimetal (on Su-metal's right, our left as we look at them) pulled out of the Legend S concerts in December 2017 under doctor's advice. She missed the 2018 tour and in October 2018 (12 months after her last appearance) she announced that she still hadn't fully recovered her health and had decided to leave the band. Su and Moa continued as a duo for the next 4-5 years supported from 2019 by 3 dancers (the Avengers) who would dance, but not sing, in the third spot. On 1st April 2023 the only remaining one of the Avengers - Momoko - was revealed as the official third member of BABYMETAL, so she is now Momometal.

Thank you too!
I accidentally stumbled across Baby Metal, clicking for new music to listen to. My first reaction was “Huh? The fuck is this?” And then… “Oh my god, I love it!” I need more Baby Metal in my life.
This was the first thing i watched of this group. I am a diehard metal fan, and when I first saw this I was confused, but could not stop smiling. I love this band.
👍👍 👍 BABYMETAL is timeless. Joy/Happiness never goes out of style. 🦊 🖖 ❤
Yui, one of the original members ( the one who is usually on Su’s right our left) fell sick in 2017 and left in 2018. Su and Moa continued as a duo employing various dancers to help out during concerts. One of those dancers was announced as the official third member ( Momometal) last year. BABYMETAL continues to astound and surprise. As for the metalhead gatekeepers they’re always around but are fewer than they were. BABYMETAL are highly respected and loved by people such as Rob Halford, Corey Taylor, Rob Zombie and many many others. They are unique. And they are brilliant.
Gimme Chocolate is Babymetal's most famous, or perhaps infamous, song, depending who you ask; it is the song that went viral in 2014 and made them famous around the world. It is usually the Babymetal song that people see first and due to it's "wtf?!" factor, it's sometimes a bit much for people and it puts some people off, so it's a bit of a double edged sword. Although the video uses the audio from the studio album, the video was filmed at the Legend 1997 concert, which was held on December 21st 2013 to celebrate Su-metal's 16th birthday. This was actually the world premiere performance of this song. The guys you see in the skeleton costumes are called "Babybones" and they are actually actors pretending to play the instruments along with a backing track. Babybones was used in the early years when Babymetal could not always afford to have a live band playing with them. This concert was one of the last occasions where Babybones were used. Yuimetal (the on the left side) retired from Babymetal due to illness in Ocotber 2018 after having not been able to perform live since late 2017. For the next five years, Babymetal was just Su-metal and Moa-metal, with a number of different dancers performing with them. Momoko Okazaki was the longest serving of the support dancers, performing with them for four years, before she officially became Momometal in April 2023. I was a hardcore metalhead and I first stumbled on Babymetal when this song went viral in 2014. When I first saw it, I thought "oh, that's a cute gimmick", gave the video a like, and moved on. It was only years later that I actually took the time to really listen to them and discovered what an incredible group they actually are and became a huge fan. I kick myself a lot that I didn't pay attention a lot sooner. Babymetal have attracted a lot of haters over the years from the "elitist" part of the metal fandom, who deride them as not being real metal, but they don't care, their fans don't care, and the many big name metal musicians that have performed with them, toured with them, collaborated with them, and spoken in support of them don't care. The metal gatekeepers are irrelevant.
I am a heavy metal hard core guitar player my whole life and this song blew me away. It inspired me to get back into music. Saw them live last summer and it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The most aggressively cute some about wanting chocolate. 🤘🦊🤘 #BABYMETAL
The girl is very cute and the backing band is unbelievably skilled. But the most important thing is that "the person who came up with this is a genius."
Mate these young ladies played in front of 55000 UK metalheads out to see Maiden at Sonisphere 2014 who had no idea who they were and by the end of their set they had the fans shouting for more and out sold everybody else in merch and had to get the gig in London moved to a bigger venue. Was the day i fell down the foxhole and if anybody says to me they are not metal i tell them to go watch Babymetal Death live from legends 97 concert and then tell me they are not metal. 🦊
Nice! This performance was the live debut of the song in Dec 2013, and it went viral, garnering Babymetal much international attention. They are definitely a unique performance act that combines adolescent innocence with heavy driving metal music to deliver an energetic and uplifting experience, that simply makes audiences happy and excited. Su (lead), Moa (dimples), and Yui (chubby cheeks, baby face) are the original trio, who started in 2010. Yui stopped performing at the end of 2017 due to health and left in 2018. She's been with Su and Moa for almost half her life performing and touring, so they are like sisters to one another. Definitely hit everyone hard. Su and Moa still talk to Yui, and they've said that she is always family and will always support her in her future endeavors. By the way, the guys in skeleton costumes are a fake band. Babymetal had just gotten big at that time in Japan, so didn't have money for a full backing band (Dec 2013). Their actual band, the Kami Band, supported them for encores since 2012, then in 2014, became their full backing band. Core members: Mikio Fujioka (Guitar - RIP Jan 2018), Takayoshi Ohmura (Guitar), Leda Cygnus (Guitar), BOH (Bass), and Hideki Aoyama (Drums). There are a few other members that once in a while switch out. These guys are the ones you saw in Road of Resistance reaction. Kami Band West was added in 2019 to assist with tours, and became their main band in 2023: Chris Kelly (Guitar), CJ Masciantonio (Guitar), Clint Tustin (Bass), and Anthony Barone (Drums). Ryan Neff filled in for Bass on tour as well. These guys are the ones you caught glimpses of in Divine Attack reaction.
Great reaction! You can't help but smile🍫🍫🍫👐
Well known metal bands love them. Corey Taylor of Slipknot in a recent interview was asked who he listen to at home and he said BabyMetal Brian Welch of Korn got on stage and performed this song with them Rob Halford of Judas Priest performed Pain Killer live with BabyMetal Dragon Force performed this song with BabyMetal
Hi from Ireland, this is the one track I wouldn't recommend to anyone for first introduction, it has put people of, and they miss out on a fantastic catalogue of epic music and shows. I am a big fan and have all their blue ray concerts, but this is one of those songs that you either like or don't, and the only one that isn't my taste. So I am glad you have heard other tracks and in fact like this. Great reaction and glad you're on the babymetal train, you have so much more to discover. As far as I am aware when you watch a live show it is recorded in total live. I was thinking of putting up all the tracks individually from my collection and jaking it public as a resource for reactors, but maybe I am breaking rules, and would a reactor still get the video blocked, maybe someone can advise 😊

11 years later and Gimme Chocolate is still a staple in their setlists. Joy is timeless! You said "Don't fall off the stage". Sadly, Yui did fall off the stage at one of their later shows and IMO, that was the beginning of the end for her, because she continued performing instead of first making sure there were no underlying injuries to be aggravated. But that is just speculation on my part.😢

Oh damn 😲
Metallica saw them live and said they were astonished by their awesomeness🎉
Very entertaining reaction. You two have a fun chemistry in these. Early on in their career Babymetal actually couldn't afford a full time band. I think this may be kind of a Japanese thing but when you see the "musicians" in the skeleton costumes they're actually actors filling in for musicians. So the instrumentals are a backing track here-but what a backing track. Keep the reactions coming they are a blast.
In a way they were forerunners for fusion projects, that are quite normal in japanese metal. They originally fused metal with the idol scene. But now they are many years older. Yui left in 2018 due to health reasons. Since April 2023 she is officialy replaced by 20 year ild Momo Metal, while Moa is 25 and Su 27. And they are still going extremly strong. Last year about 100 concerts with an audience of 250.000. And they still creste panic since they have about 40% females and ages between 5 and 85. This was one of their songs but they fusion nearly every kind of metal with their own sound
Welcome back to the Foxhole 🦊🤘🍫 Nice to see you're back with more BM songs. This is their breakout hit in 2014, for better or worse, either you hated or loved it, this MV got the highest amount of views on their channel, and fans were enjoying this song every night at the World Tour in 2023, is a hit they don't wanna miss in almost every live performance, hopefully you'll get the chance to see them live, don't miss out the opportunity to feel this experience. Dance choreography and metal has never seen before and an important part of this is thanks to Mikiko-Metal (aka Mikiko Mizuno) she's behind another famous Jpop group called Perfume and is very well respected sensei with her own group of dance Eleven Play, she was behind Olympic Games ceremony. And the mastermind behind this madness is KobaMetal. This MV isn't actually live version and not even with the usual Kami Band, is studio album version over a live performance which was partially live only on the vocals and choreography with backing track sound. Back in the day, before 2014 mainly, they used to have this backing band called "baby-bones" air playing instruments wearing this skeleton costumes, they didn't have the budget to afford a high level set of real musicians like they have now, so progressively since 2012 they incorporate the real band and leaving the baby-bones behind, they did a great job supporting the girls and giving a show, so shout-out to them for being part of BM story. This was in December 2013 at SuMetal 16th Birthday, so it's actually 10 years ago, the other girls had 14 yo and there was a big party you have seen nothing yet, wait for _"Babymetal Death"_ They're just singing about wanting to eat some chocolate but they worried about the weight just like any other regular girl, there's not so much hidden message behind, they used to have fun songs like these without so much deepness on the lyrics just to have fun and party, but the brutal contrast on this is remarkable, no doubt about it. See you in the mosh'sh pit means go watch Road Of Resistance live in Japan official if you didn't already. Another suggestion to witness a turning point in their career outside of Japan: - Ijime Dame Zettai live at Sonisphere Festival 2014 official. Thanks for sharing this and see you next time!🦊🤘🔥
Back in the earlier days, say 2013-2015, when the group was still fresh on the World Metal Scene there was a LOT of back lash from the "Elitist Gatekeepers" and a War did rage, but Babymetal handled it with class...when they tried to insult Babymetal by calling their music "Bubblegum Metal", Babymetal released a song called "Awadama Fever" (translates to Bubble Ball Fever or Bubblegum Fever) and the song ROCKED HARD and shut those idiots down!! LoL!! And when some of Rob Zombie's own fans were calling him out for liking Babymetal, they said to Rob that Babymetal was just "Awful", and Rob replied "They Roll Harder than You"! and he said they were "nice kids out on the road touring" and "What are you doing besides being a grumpy old f**k?" DAMN!! Babymetal did have their Battles but came out on top and become one of the Hottest Tickets on the World Heavy Metal Scene today!! More Babymetal Always!! Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!

In Gimme Chocolate, Road of Resistance and Karate you have seen Yui-metal, who left the group in 2018 (her last performance took place in 2017) for health reasons. In Divine Attack her place was taken by the younger Momo-metal (born in 2003, while Su was born in 1997 and Moa and Yui in 1999). Su-metal's (the main singer and the oldest) birthday is in december, so she's just turned 26 nearly a month ago.
Pretend this is aimed at Japan.. and you will get it.. It's just Japan in a nutshell... but it's soooooo good!! Fun!!..... If the rest of the world gets on board... awesome.. but it's aimed at Japan!
🤘🦊🤘
Babymetal are happy metal 😂
Good reaction🤘BABYMETAL is a band that enjoys the contrast between jpop and metal mixed with various genres. For example power metal, speed metal, rap, reggae, etc. I would recommend BxMxC to you!
Thank you for doing more Babymetal :)

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” (26 years old) sometimes referred to as Vocal and Dance. Moa Kikuchi aka "Moametal", pronounced as Moa-Metal (24 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.) The black outfit and masks currently used helps place them more in the background as the group is Babymetal not the Kami Band. 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. Music Video of this Era Doki Doki Morning (Debut Song) Iine (Pronounced EE-N A spelled i i n e) Headbangya 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. Music Videos of this Era Gimmie Chocolate Megitsune Rondo of Nightmare - With mischief of the Gods Intro (Su Solo and a great expedition of the Kami Band) Road of Resistance Live in Japan (Co-written by Dragonforce) Iijime, Dame, Zettai Live at Sonisphere (Name means No More Bullying Forever) Karate 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. Music Videos of this Era (These MVs do not feature the members in them at all) Distortion Starlight (Don’t let overzealous fans fool you, this is OFFICIALLY not a tribute to anyone. A lot of fan speculation, end of story if they claim it is they are 100% lying to you.) 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. Music Videos of this Era Pa Pa Ya Elevator Girl Shanti Shanti Da Da Dance (Avenger confusion) 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.

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. Music Videos of this Era BxMxC (First music video that isn’t footage from a show and featuring Su and Moa since Karate in 2015) 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 KZread, 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. Music Videos of this Era Divine Attack Metal Kingdom Monochrome Monochrome Piano Ver. (From The First Take) Light and Darkness Mirror Mirror Metalizm 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 a 2 day Birthday Bash for Momoko’s 20/21 birthday (They missed her 20th). They also already have many 2024 festival dates in the US and EU and solo shows in Spain. Music videos of this Era The One Unfinished Ver. (From the First Take) Metali (feat. Tom Morello)

Wait until you Listen to Metali their latest song. You will have it stuck in your head for months.
It's too bad a lot of reactors chose this video/song as their first reaction. It's not so bad if you've already heard a few songs before (like you guys) but for a lot of people, it's hit or miss. Personally, my favorite version of this song is the one they perform on Late Night with Stephen Colbert (at least they have the Kami band on that one, not the Babybones pretending to play the instruments like this version). But as usual, great reaction. You guys get what BM is all about!

This is the video that sent me down the foxhole. Some deride it as being campy and not really showing BABYMETAL at their best. Undoubtedly BABYMETAL has better songs in their repertoire but, to me, this song defines BABYMETAL and their kawaii metal sound - this makes listening to metal fun! And, yeah, there were old-school metalhead gatekeepers who gave BABYMETAL grief but when you have the likes of Rob Zombie saying things like "these three girls had more energy that [sic] 90 percent of the bands we play with" and "They roll harder than you" and "Hey they are nice kids out on the road touring. What are you doing besides being a grumpy old fuck?", you know BABYMETAL is metal!!! Regarding Yuimetal leaving the group: I mentioned that in my comment for your "Divine Attack" reaction (you must have forgotten - if you read the comment, that is) - apparently it was for health reasons but the specifics have never been brought to light. Nevertheless, it is my personal opinion that Yui didn't want to leave the group, she HAD to leave the group. Anyway . . . . Keep rockin’ BABYMETAL!!! KITSUNE UP!!! 🤘🦊🤘
Nice reaction :) Gimmie Chocolate was my first introduction to the band. I was watching some other reactors watch it and while I thought the music was great and Su's singing was excellent, I just couldn't get past what Yui and Moa were doing and I was like, 'Naaa, not for me.' Then two or three days later I realized that I still had Su's voice going on in my head and I felt bad for judging them on just one song, so I went back and tried another. I can't remember if it was the Megitsune MV or Headbanger at the live '97 concert but I was blown away. I've been a huge fan ever since. They have 4 studio albums, a ton of live performances and a very dedicated fan base (Known as 'The One'). There are even guides on YT that explain who they are and how it all came about which I highly recommend you checking out. Enjoy the journey :)
OPIONION: Amuse wrote a made up story about why Yui left. When Yui was absent from Babymatal concerts Yui wrote, or should I say Amuse wrote, I`ll be back don`t worry there is no Babymetal without me - this statement was taken off later when it was confirmed that Yui would not be back. Also, Yui said (once again Amuse) that she will be pursuing a solo career...will Amuse where is her solo career? NO BODY KNOW WHY YUI LEFT!!!
