I wonder if there are any other mascots over there that play metal like this...
Like Mascot Drum Battles? I’m fucking in. If not, can we have Mascot Drum Battles?
@@sainfalln you've given me an idea
@@DrumlionMusic I’m liking where this is going
Umm.. I don’t know if you know, but Nyango Star does play with other mascots who also play metal!
@@athlonen i dig some digging. There will be future videos about this!
I don’t know how anyone can’t love Nyango Star.
FACTS! lol
So funny when his little arms fly around so violently, and the lyrics lol.
I’m no drummer, but I know that the fact they are doing this high level performance, in that suit, with limited visibility, padding on the hands and feet, (I saw another video, where it looks like the paws have a hole or something they slip the drumsticks into to help with the grip), and there’s no way it doesn’t get really hot inside the suit. All that considered, what their doing is like flawlessly beating a video game with their eyes closed while locked in a sauna. Amazing 🤩
I got to see him perform live in Japan! 😊
What!!!??? thats awesome! Were you stationed out there or something?
@@DrumlionMusic yep! Out in Okinawa. Played in a shopping mall of all places haha. I got a golden playing card somewhere from him 😂
@@chrisdeangelis4616 Thats so dope! I have a buddy in the Marine Corps that was out there too. He didn't get to see this kind of awesomeness tho lol
Does anyone know why Nyango bops his face like that sometimes while playing? It's charmingly cute!
This is a song by the three-piece rock band uchikubi-gokumon-doucoukai (Beheading hell gate club). I also like the original.
1:54 ringo also means apple in Japanese 🙂
How wicked would it be if Nyango guest drummed for metal bands? Image this dude playing with like, Behemoth or Gorgoroth. 🤘🤘
That would be a huge win for the band as well as the spectators lol
I think he played with BabyMetal in a video at least
@@chrisdeangelis4616 ok this a collaboration I NEED to see!
@@DrumlionMusic oh my mistake it was just a cover!

@@chrisdeangelis4616 still awesome
By far the best comments about Nyango Star, 10+. PS I love the little Applecat !
This was great!!! 😁
Thank you so much! Im really glad you thought so!!!!!
Bro that's wild af 🤣😂🤣😂
Someone in the comments was stationed in Okinawa and actually got to meet him!
I can't actually read sheet music. I tried for several years, faking it through piano lessons by watching my teachers fingers, and figuring it out by ear. But I can read patterns. My first split second thought was "oh ok chaos ensues"
Avec l aire de l internet c est deja un exploit d avoir gardé l identité secrete de Nyango star. J adore ce personnage depuis que j ai vus une video de 66samus qui en a parlé.
She is
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha 🤣🤣😂😂 that was freaking awesome bro!!! First time hearing about this good stuff as always my friend 👊🇺🇸
Im glad i could introduce you to this haha!
Hilarious lol. I was supposed to do a Halloween show in costume actually, but it got canceled 😑. I was gonna be Gohan from dbz so I was bummed when it got shut down. Wanted to see if I could drum like this in costume haha. Random question, but do you like anime?
Yes i watch anime. Hell, i remember watching dbz back when toonami aired in the afternoons on cartoon network.
@@DrumlionMusic same! I always watched it back then. Just got done watching kai actually too. Saw everything else dragonball so figured I'd watch it. Any favorites? Aside from dbz my favorite is code geass and current favorites are demon slayer and jujutsu kaisen
@@builtonstruggle1 i miss that old Toonami block. I remember the short trailers they would show with the guy that voices Optimus Prime narrating with the hype music in the background while showing Goku go super saiyan... So good..as far as my picks for anime, db, dbz, db super. Attack on Titan(although i need to finish the last several episodes), Hajime no ippo(the greatest boxing anime period imo), Baki, cowboy bebop, Hellsing, parasyte, and Deadman wonderland.
@@DrumlionMusic yeah same. Those were the days. Nice picks there. If you like boxing you should check out an anime called rainbow. Not totally boxing, but it has some boxing elements and touches huge on perseverance through tough times. Also the opening is fire. Surprised to see deadman wonderland. I loved it too, but it got shut down so I read more into the manga
@@builtonstruggle1 I'll have to check out Rainbow for sure. And yeah I was bummed about Deadman. I really enjoyed that anime. Plus the opening theme is catchy.
She is a woman with two children. She plays in a band. Nao Kawakita. It is not acceptable for the person to break character openly in Japan. Plus she owns all rights to character.
She does the character different from her usual act.
Not that different though - a lot of the mannerisms are the same as is the technique (obviously movement in the suit is more restricted though). I love the video where Maximum the Hormone (including Nao) interact with Nyango and you keep waiting for it to play the drums and of course it never does. I think theres a bit of a nod and a wink going on in that one. I remember seeing a pic of the Muppets backstage with the characters sitting on peoples heads and .... yeah it's best not to break the illusion with these things.
What is up with all the foreigners thinking its Kawakita Nao in there?? Where do yall get it from?
Like, she's even got 0 connections to Aomori and yet does full time mascot job for the prefecture as a side gig??
Where is your drum cover for this one? Lol
She..
The documentary i watched the locals of Kuroishi were saying he.
@@DrumlionMusic - Okay here goes - the undead cat/apple hybrid is canonically a he ... although does gender matter when it's the spirit of an undead cat inhabiting an apple? It's also around 5 ft tall, there are videos of it playing drums with Maximum the Hormone whose drummer is a petite woman of around that height called Nao Kawakita who has a remarkably similar playing style to Nyango Star. The first vids drop just when she is forced to stop touring due to difficult pregnancies and it doesn't appear live till after the birth of her 2nd child. There are vids of a non drum playing Nyango interacting with her and the Maximum the Hormone guys but the one where Nyango plays with them her voice can be heard but she is never seen - is it an overdub, is she behind the camera, is she in the suit who knows. The evidence is pretty strong it's her and they dont even really seem to be actively hiding the fact but at the same time they aren't about to break character either. Even if it wasn't Nao it's probably safe to say it's a girl in the suit given the height but the character is supposed to be male. So yeah pronouns are complicated.
i think it's woman🙂
Learn something new everyday. I don't remember how the articles i read mentioned Nyango's pronoun
@@DrumlionMusic Nyango the mascot is officially a male. There is a rumor going around that Nao Kawakita from 'Maximum The Hormone' is the one wearing the costume. I would like this to be true, however as far as I can see it's just a baseless rumor with nothing much to back it up and even some evidence that would point to it being entirely false. There is supposedly a clip where Nao can be clearly heard behind the camera. Every video with Nyango has somebody spreading this rumor but as far as I can tell there's absolutely nothing that proves this claim.
@@sindri1447 ah ok thank you for this information and clarity!
@@sindri1447 - the vid isn't hard to find (it's on Nyango Star's site) and trust me it in no way proves that it isn't Nao in the suit ... in fact there's like 3 vids with Nyango and the Maximum the Hormone people. All the evidence points to her - the undead cat/apple hybrids first vids coincide with her stopping touring due to difficult pregnancies (she sadly lost the 2nd one) and doesn't appear live till after the successful birth of her 2nd daughter, the height, the drum style, the appearances of her friends and family in Nyango videos. I dont even think they are actively trying to hide the fact hence the vids on the site that hint it's her but at the same time dont break character. They aren't going to come out and state it outright because it's not the Masked Singer - it's not about who is in the suit it's about the illusion that it's a undead cat/apple hybrid playing drums and that illusion given a lot of people pleasure, helped a relatively depressed cities economy and sold a lot of merch. There are several Nyango Stars in vids by the way including a non drum playing version that interacts with Nao and the Maximum the Hormone guys in a very meta way in one vid but the drum playing one is 99% certain to be Nao.
Nao is from tokyo and Nyango is from Kurioshi so not even close. There are a lot of people that want it to be Nao but this basic fact about Nyango doesn't line up with Nao.
