Before Babymetal went completely viral, she said she wanted to be a singer-song writer. Now she fulfilled her dream, she wrote Divine Attack, it’s just so BEAUTIFUL
Easily one the most impressive young people I have ever seen. The level of confidence and ability to make clear and concise answers is so clear. The section about her finding “a new Su “is particularly enlightening. Every challenge was accepted, met, and achieved. Very impressed. No doubt she will accomplish every goal that is in her future.
This interview is quite unique compared to the other interviews I've seen with Su. Here, I feel I get a glimpse of what she's realy like. She seems very comfortable in the situation and you can tell that she is speaking freely. Not like in some of the Babymetal interviews where her responses seem automatic and pre-arranged (for PR purposes ofcourse). Not sure why I've missed this interview for so long (I see it's from Oct 2014). But I'm glad I found it and enjoyed it very much. And thankyou once again, Thomas Malone, for taking the time to translate it for me. Your hard work is much appreciated.
This was very informative into Suzuka Nakamoto's personality. She's pretty sharp and has the perfect attitude towards things. And her goal at the graduation was to make everyone cry, hahaha
Su speaks as fast as a machine gun. Russian is my first language. English is my second language. I also study Japanese. It seems to me that even with Russian subtitles I won't have time to read as fast as Su says. Of course she's always great!
I think its so incredible fascinating seeing the young Su from 2012 and compare her to the Su we have seen on the Metal Galaxy Tour. She really evolved from a cute schoolgirl to the godess of heavy metal which is able to hynoptize and command a crowd of 20.000+ people. The headbanger performance from Legend Metal Galaxy Day 2 comes to mind. And dont get me started on BMC... this girl is incredible.
Holly crap! Amazing having 14-15 year old Su dropping leadership knowledge as a seasoned CEO. If all bosses and leaders took her approach, we would be in a far better situation.
A natural born leader. It's amazing how bright and wise Su is. I guess she's had to grow up fast during her career. The best part is that she has the strengths and abilities of a great leader while remaining humble.
maybe because the interviewers were interviewing her in english that's why she cant express herself that thoroughly and also Kobayashi taught them an outline script on how to answer the FAQs of the interviewers that's why it seems to be not genuine.
...and also another reason was that mostly of the people who interviewed her/them (BabyMetal) are metal fans who are basically males who don't have any talent to connect with a female's heart so their questions are basically just limited to BM's performances and their interests towards metal music. They fail to question them about their personal dreams, hopes, and struggles that they experience in their career.
Sorry, that's both sexist and misleading/wrong. Koba is very specific about what/how questions are allowed to be asked, it's not like the interviewers don't want to hear those answers.
Zooropa_Station i'm not trying to be sexist but there's really something that's hard to explain about how girls communicate with each other and boys communicate with each and how boys and girls communicate with each other especially if it comes to personality and cultural background differences. i think the girls are somewhat uncomfortable about sharing these kinds of thoughts (like their plans/dreams outside the metal music industry) to the interviewers...it's not that koba is limiting them from not saying these things but the girls themselves just find it awkward to share these and i think the interviewers also find it awkward to ask these kind of questions. I believe this makes their other interviews seems stiff and scripted just like how Eggdrasil described
I'm also referring to the Frequently Asked Questions like who is their favorite band is, which is METALICA. It's obvious Koba told them that it should be their answer making it scripted but the girls also genuinely like the band
At 10:11 Su probably said father not brother. Su has 2 older sisters, no brothers. Her father was in a rock band in his youth. One of his friends from that time is in JAM project.
9:51 "A-sha" is abbreviation of "artist shashin". Photographs of singer,idol, etc. to promote. 14:02 NOT Akita! SU said "actor" meaning "Actors School Hiroshima". Abbreviation is sometimes so difficult!xD And I'm too conscious about that part, because I'm from Hiroshima!xP Perfume, Sayashi Riho of Morning Musume and Nakamoto sisters were from that school. And maybe the most interesting information about this vid, Mr.Minewaki, elder interviewer and hardcore Sakura Gakuin fan, is the president of Tower Records Japan!
Chiura Raimu But she had heard the call, Babymetal was formed some 2½ years prior. But this interview was specifically with Su-chan, soon to graduate senior from SG, and not Su-metal. They are different and we hear Suzuka-san allude to this in the interview. She's no poser, they are all genuine parts of Suzuka (which is in part why so many of us adore the girls of SG). I think many performers are this way, just ask Sasha Fierce.
This is a great and important clip for some insight to the girl who referred to herself as "ordinary" Nakamoto Suzuka, SG Nakamoto Suzuka, and "cool" Suzuka who could also do metal. None among the three would have known that people around the world would one day call her the Queen of Metal 😖
i see, I just googled "yui" a while ago and she came out xD Her background story and songs are nice and inspiring tho... Her music is powerful and touched me even without understanding its lyrics :)
People seemed to be confused. This is an interview with Suzuka Nakamoto and NOT SU-METAL. She knows the difference when being interviewed if it's for Sakura Gakuin or for BABYMETAL. ONE is as herself, Suzuka and the other is as SU-METAL.
It is a Japanese thing to use pronouns as little as possible. They either use names or just skip the pronouns when it is clear from context who they are talking about.
One of the most honest interviews I've seen with her, I would love to see her getting a proper interview instead of the fake nonsense they do nowadays.

How can anyone not love this girl? :)

....well I watched the ceremony before this, and she may have opened the floodgates...
Bluraz I also love how she laughs a lot, definitely has a very positive attitude!
@@DigitalFumino nah, MOA was crying way before she even began her speech 😅
Little did they know she'll be the Metal Queen of our hearts
Are all Japanese people this eloquent? Su speaks so coherently and comes across as very self aware. Such a cool interview!
Su is so adorable. :) I love her positive attitude and I truly feel she is an inspiration.
Su speaks as fast as a machine gun. Russian is my first language. English is my second language. I also study Japanese. It seems to me that even with Russian subtitles I won't have time to read as fast as Su says. Of course she's always great!
That's why she can rap
As she matures she discovers another "me"... one of the greatest and commanding stage personas of any performer.
Mr.Minewaki（guy in T-shirts）is CEO of Tower Record Japan, also known as biggest Sakura Gakuin fan!
And Moa is his favourite. :-)
of course is a fan, they made him get a lot of CD and DVD sales back then :V
The way she's holding the microphone is different from others, as tight and steady as she's singing as SU-METAL.
I can watch this for an hour straight. It felt fast.
Is she an angel ?

Her little "uhh where do I stand face" in the beginning was ADORABLE.
thank you for this, it adds a priceless knowledge about our goddess and queen Su-Metal

「ステ－ジでは泣かない」スウちゃんのボリシ－、プロとして大事なこと。この頃のスッピンのスウちゃん、かわいい日本人形みたいだな。
Probably the best interview I've seen with Su simply because it seemed laid back and natural where as most seem way to stiff and scripted
maybe because the interviewers were interviewing her in english that's why she cant express herself that thoroughly and also Kobayashi taught them an outline script on how to answer the FAQs of the interviewers that's why it seems to be not genuine.

タワレコードは今もベビメタの10周年記念コーナーを作っているらしいけど、この頃から応援しているんだな。
9:52
Asha(アー写) = Artist Shashin (アーティスト写真)
英語だと publicity shot かな
「アー写の中でギターを持っていた」ということです。
She's soooooooo adorable
...the future Queen of Metal
Hard to believe that even though Su wanted to be both a singer and songwriter, she wouldn't write another song until 2022
9:51 "A-sha" is abbreviation of "artist shashin". Photographs of singer,idol, etc. to promote.
14:02 NOT Akita! SU said "actor" meaning "Actors School Hiroshima". Abbreviation is sometimes so difficult!xD And I'm too conscious about that part, because I'm from Hiroshima!xP Perfume, Sayashi Riho of Morning Musume and Nakamoto sisters were from that school.
And maybe the most interesting information about this vid,
Mr.Minewaki, elder interviewer and hardcore Sakura Gakuin fan, is the president of Tower Records Japan!
Ah,my bad! I found a corrected vid just now.xP
who would have thought, Riho would be the one to support Babymetal as an Avenger ? I love the idea of ASH sisters performing together.
Thank you so much for the subs!
So refreshing to see Su-metal in an unscripted interview! I hope all three girls get to do similar in the future.
it is pretty refreshing when the fox god isn't telling her everything to say.
she still haven't hear the divine voice of the Fox God at this moment when she was interviewed. xD
Chiura Raimu But she had heard the call, Babymetal was formed some 2½ years prior. But this interview was specifically with Su-chan, soon to graduate senior from SG, and not Su-metal. They are different and we hear Suzuka-san allude to this in the interview. She's no poser, they are all genuine parts of Suzuka (which is in part why so many of us adore the girls of SG). I think many performers are this way, just ask Sasha Fierce.
Did Moa and Yui also did this same interview when they graduated?
Cute smile Suzuka 🤘❤
3:21-25 'number 9' is wrong.
Correctly 'type KU'.
Sakura Gakuin's DVD are 3 types, type 'SA'（さ盤）, type 'KU'（く盤） and type 'RA'（ら盤）.
This is a great and important clip for some insight to the girl who referred to herself as "ordinary" Nakamoto Suzuka, SG Nakamoto Suzuka, and "cool" Suzuka who could also do metal. None among the three would have known that people around the world would one day call her the Queen of Metal 😖
Why the upset face?
@@phillipgregory9671 oh I always thought that to be a "holding emotions in" face LOL!
@@lingo374 idk it's such an odd expression..always makes me think of Charlie brown 🤣
@@phillipgregory9671 'tis the Great Pumpkin!
Su and the two men at this time could not predict what a phenomenon Babymetal and Su would become in the years after!
I think nobody could have imagined back then. Supporting Metallica, sold-out Tokyo Dome. We have come a long way.
6:50 could anyone please tell me who is this Yui-san (probably not Mizuno Yui) that influenced Suzuka in her singing?
YUI is the singer-songwriter who is famous in Japan. YUIMETAL is another person :)
i see, I just googled "yui" a while ago and she came out xD
Her background story and songs are nice and inspiring tho...
Her music is powerful and touched me even without understanding its lyrics :)
この時、まさかここまで世界で活躍するとは思っていなかったでしょうね。
Anak sekecil itu sangat lancar berbicara. ❤👏
love my queen
People seemed to be confused. This is an interview with Suzuka Nakamoto and NOT SU-METAL. She knows the difference when being interviewed if it's for Sakura Gakuin or for BABYMETAL. ONE is as herself, Suzuka and the other is as SU-METAL.
She have that death glare just by an interview.
Her surprise at 17.13 xD
u were important in SG, Suchan!!
Important? Suzuka was essential in SG. It's just not the same without Su.
His laugh is so cute 😅
日本では引き笑いというんdeath。😅。
Yes
Thank you arigato
yui-san is YUI who is Japanese singer song writer. you can listen her song searching [YUI summer song] on youtube. so yui-san isn't yuimetal^_^
She sang imo the best Fullmetal Alchemist OP
why do the subtitles refer to Sue in the 3rd person? is it a Japanese thing or a character she had for SG like Sumetal for example?
It is a Japanese thing to use pronouns as little as possible. They either use names or just skip the pronouns when it is clear from context who they are talking about.
When she said Cry and they said cry, what was the word in japanese. I see Naite and Naku but it sounded more like Mon eye Janai
I'm not an expert in japanese but I'm hearing Naku (cry) and Nakanai (don't cry). Mondai nai means something like "no problem".
Rasey DenTFacE arigatou :)
Your welcome
マイクが歌う時とおんなじ
Thanks! Is there an untranslated source video on UA-cam as well?
南波さんトーク上手いな
Yiiipppppppiiiieeeee thanks for the subtitles suscribe
She was still in middle school at the time. Can you believe it?
YUI and Su together doing full collab would very awesome. Metal, pop, rock or whatever it might be🥺
One of the most honest interviews I've seen with her, I would love to see her getting a proper interview instead of the fake nonsense they do nowadays.
what she's referring to "SU" is it herself or other?
It's a way of talking that refer herself in third person, pretty common in JP and I think?
What is SG?
+Eggdrasil Warthog Sakura Gakuin. If you don't yet :P
Just business
