It's so cool to get a song that really spotlights on Saiki. I think it's also a bit of the function of this being the end theme for a anime, the singer is usually more prominent in those. But still, her technical vocal work in those verses was just unreal!
from JAPAN. Thank you for your reaction. Did you enjoy your recent tour in Japan? As you may already know, the recording of their new album is already complete. BAND-MAID will surely take us to a new world. The expected release date has not yet been announced, but we look forward to it.
Great reaction…Thanks! I heard likes and dislikes on this song but agree they want to conquer Japan and if anime can be a way to get that done! As Saiki says “Do it” - another anime song…I see somewhat of a pattern here! World Domination is near! 🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!
Great reaction John. Band-Maid is a step above everyone else. BTW, I believe The First Take is only for artists signed by Sony. I could be wrong, but that is why Band-Maid and other artists have never been featured on the program.
Many non-Sony artists also appear in First Take. The project itself is Sony's, but they don't necessarily have to belong to Sony. I'm using a translator so sorry if my English is wrong.
Also noticeable is the level of Japanese reaction to this video premiere. Normally it's dominated by foreigners. Their year and a half of cultivating the home market is paying off. Japan is the second biggest music market in world. Also I believed they played this live the other night and it was wild according to one of those Japanese comments
Talking of vocal run, that ascending vocal run Saiki does in the 2nd verse sounds like the trill that I hear a lot in Indian/Islamic music I absolutely love. You hear her did that in Endless Story at Yokohama Arena but I this song she did it with hint of Islamic flair, or an I imagining it? And just after the first chorus there is a small part where a different instrument came in, probably Koto or sitar. I think you've noticed that because you raised your brows slightly. Am I right? In my opinion it has the strong middle eastern ethnic vibe and I absolutely love it whenever the Maids do something interesting or different.
I watched the anime a few days ago and found the opening song not strong enough, but this closing theme song by Band-Maid fits the anime so well and leaves such a strong impression! I thought Kanami and Miku knew exactly what was needed for an anime song.
Are you thinking of the "white room" videos? Those were with the deluxe editions of Conqueror ( Miku w/ tongue out version) and Unseen World. All of them are instrumentals, full band and also each individual member spotlight, I love the Miku only ones. "without holding back" can be found on YT.
First Take is a Sony brand. Anything that doesn't benefit them won't appear. If the label were different, the wall would be even higher. There is a possibility that the label will accept the offer if it is expected to be profitable, but the terms will not be made public. BAND-MAID does a lot of similar things in their live shows. In Japan, there is criticism that the first take is not a one-shot.
Sony, Avex, Toy's Factory, Amuse are some of the more aggressive labels that go after people. Some artists/labels PAY to be on First Take, I don't know if PC wants to do that and not have the rights to the rights to the First Take videos.... I believe when choosing the label they were moving to, Miku probably turned away from those labels because she knows how much reactors benefit the band.
2:13 宇宙の果て The End of the Universe 答えはどこへ（kotaewa dokoe＊♪） Where is the answer?＊ This part is cool. As you pointed out SAIKI plays a cool melody. Your videos are always highly musical reaction movies.
What a wild assed video!!!!!! I can see why this banger is perfect for an action anime. I wonder what the BPM's are for this. They seem to rival "Black Hole". I understand that this anime series in popular in France. Thus, the ou la la la la la las. Hmmmmm!!!!!! Does this mean that Band-Maid may tour France late this summer or fall?
Band Maid at their best! Hagane is a reformed band that you'll enjoy. Try their new video circa 7/24. Junna is their new drummer! Sakura, the guitarist, is a premier shredder. The new singer has a powerful voice with a wide range and fantastic tone.
An opening for an action anime is very cool and really opens a lot of doors. And by the way, Miku strengthened her vocals so much that I couldn’t really distinguish her from Saikі anymore
This song is so good, it reminds me of the Different/Shambles vein, but as stated below, it will probably never be on The First Take because of Sony. Is it Hitsujibungaku you saw on that? They are a really good band, very grunge/alternative. They did the ED for JJK More than Words, that's probably the song you are seeing, they just released a new ED for OSHI NO KO called Burning that kicks butt, Addiction is so good as well. Regal Lily another great band does the ED for Delicious in Dungeons called Twilight Ash. Both bands have been around for as long as Band Maid as well, I think audiences outside of Japan are starting to hear about a lot of great bands from Japan due to the rise in anime popularity.
Saiki has developed into a top tier front woman!
And let us all take a moment to thank Miku for her vision of this band! 🙏
Yep. 5 ladies from Japan with more balls than any band around today.
👍👍🍻🍻
Some things are naturally deep eg the Marianas trench, the Grand canyon, BAND-MAID's well of creativity. What a fcken band Po 👍🍻
This song is going to be killer live.

Band-Maid is just a blast. You might want to check out Nek! with their debut song called Get Over and their newest release called Maze.
I believe Mincho and Misa are both playing their new signature guitars.
@@donaldbohn3183 not here but maybe live the other night.
The real Band-Maid is back. A freaking badass song.😝🤘

I think BabyMetal were one of the first non Sony acts to do first take so their is a chance
Many non-Sony artists also appear in First Take.
The project itself is Sony's, but they don't necessarily have to belong to Sony.

Almost 11 years in, and they still haven't come close to reaching their creative ceiling. (I expect them to plateau somewhere around 2057).
It´s a good song, it fits perfect with the theme and the ambience of the anime. The girls are creating their own "anime" sound. Thank you!
Band-Maid=❤
Fck yeah 👍🍻
👍👍Great, BAND-MAID 🔥🔥🔥. 🖖❤
This is an opening song for an anime. I will watch the anime and blast my speaker loud whenever the song start
*ending song
@@ЕгорМилюшин it's an ending song? Thanks, buddy
Grendizer U is fucking great
Offtopic a little..Tonights show Kanami was slapping her guitar during their Battle with Misa 😅 She put pick in her mouth and started slapping 🔥🤘❤️
kool!
Torajima roars.
@@stevekane4922 Indeed. Hope she post some good pics soon about it 🤘🔥❤️
@@bocatampere expecting a total breakdown.
@@stevekane4922 me too

One of Kanami's more slower old school solos

The song is the ending of anime GRENDIZER U. it's a reboot of the animé UFO ROBO GRENDIZER from 1975 created by Go Nagaï and Tōei animation & fuji tv
Great reaction John.

Only Sony and Warner acts as far as I've seen. Sony distribute Warner in Japan.

@@miqoto the anime connection was important and the artistic freedom.

Hopefully they'll do a "white room" video of this.

Listen to their song “Play” such a great song
Ouh là là, Band-Maid! Thx, John!
It's a banger fo sho
I feel Saiki's vocals has reached an upgrade, again.
Already did 100k views in 23hrs.

I watched this this morning. Thank you for the reaction 🤘
Mazinger Zero and Go Nagai sends there regards
The Instrumental versions might be what you are thinking are First Take like?
The first take is SONY
Grendizer U ending!
🤘🤘🤘

The ladies have new guitars, Misa has a beautiful bass. And I'm glad that they moved away from cooperation with Incubus))
First Take is Sony, so I doubt it.
