You mentioned all three Avengers on stage together with Su and Moa being a symbol of unity. Both Kami Bands, East and West, were on stage performing together with them as well. Somehow they made having 2 drummers, 2 bassists, and 4 guitarists playing at the same time work.
I like how the message is much more about rising above it instead of feeling victimized. 'Say goodbye to yesterday'. 'Fox fly! Fly Fly Fly!'. A lot of what Babymetal speaks of is self empowerment.
Su got you in the feels again 😁 did you notice Su doing Kitsunes towards the Kamis ( all 8 of them ) as they returned to the stage left side and outwards on the right and checking eveyone was back before she shouted " we are " things like that which makes me love her even more forgetting no one ❤️ Su's vocals on Ijime Dame Zettai just get more passionate as the song progresses. Mikiko said in an interview, "Why did you put the running across the stage in the courography for Ijime Dame Zettai?" Her reply was they were so small and full of energy we wanted to see how fast they could run if true. What a great story 🤣. During the running part of Ijime Dame Zettai at Budokan Red Night, Moa slipped, and although limping and obviously in pain with tears streaming down her face, she finished the courography Jumping , fighting, and dancing
She became Super Moa Chan ❤ with Yui falling of stage during Headbangèr and came back on for the next song, all smiles ( this song ) . Both true professionals and tougher than they look . ❤❤🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
That night, unless I am mistaken, according to the choreography Moa was supposed to receive one of Yui's punches by bending far backwards. Instead, she fell sat on the floor, as perhaps her leg could not support that move. The ultimate professional she is, like they all are, she never broke character, and picked up the choreography on the fly.
The Red/Black Night stage was so big that you could see them starting their initial run in time to make it to centre stage when they needed to be there.
@Rymdsaft I think that is correct it definitely looked like she could not support her weight and just ended up sitting on the floor . Still tried, though . I would have sat holding my leg like a big baby 😩 🤘🏼🦊
Great reaction, thanks!
I can't describe how much I love this version of "IDZ" with the three Avengers and both sets of the Kami Band on stage. 13 people performing on stage at the same time.
Yes, this was the epic encore of Legend Metal Galaxy Day 2. But you need to play a special song with a special configuration after performing the freaking "Trilogy of Lights" fully, in a row and in the correct order for the first (and only) time.
Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。 You picked up a special version of this song featuring all of 13 stars at that time (BM + 3 Avengers + East & West Kami Bands). This was played on Jan.26, 2020 and it was for the first time in several years. Because audience never expected it to happen, they got so hyped.
The phrase "Dame Zettai (= No absolutely)" is originated from police campaign against illegal drugs which had started in 1960s. So this song implies that "Ijime (= bullying)" is considered as harmful and addictive as illegal drugs. We have to continue our efforts at home and in school (and in any society or organization or group in the world) to eliminate it. After this revival, BM have continued to perform this song in all of their shows in Japan, Asia and Australia. It was probably their message to the current world.
Ijime, Dame, Zettai is one of Babymetal great songs. Normally the reactors react to the performance at Sonysphere 2014, with the original trio, Su, Yui and Moa: Ijime,Dame,Zettai - Live at Sonisphere 2014,UK
It was his first big performance outside of Asia.
In the performance, Su closes her eyes while Yui and Moa stage a fight as part of the choreography. They stage a part of the song lyrics because people who pretend not to see the bullying are part of the problem.
Thank you.
This performance always makes me cry because all of the avengers were there. I always cry when I am overwhelmed with just sheer awesomeness.
It's a powerful image when all five stand there holding the Babymetal flag in RoR. Gives me chills.
I love these two shows! So amazing. Saw them live for the first time three months ago, just awesome beyond description.
"Why did it take so long to get to this song?" Possibly because it is a sensitive subject for you, but as with all Babymetal songs, it is encouraging and uplifting. ❤
All 3 Avengers and both East and West Kami bands on stage at the same time always makes for an epic ending to a show. 🔥🤘🦊🤘🔥
Babymetal has so many amazing songs to choose from and everyone has their own favorites, which impact them the most. IDZ is a very popular song though.
A very emotional performance in many ways, this was peak Avenger era, these were 2 shows with completely different set lists, to showcase the 3rd album.
Both days ended with a performance with all the girls and both bands (Babymetal in recent years added a 'western kami band', mainly to tour in Europe/US, etc.).
Day 1 was 8 band members, 5 girls Road of Resistance and day 2 Ijime, Dame, Zettai, this song had not been performed in years and many thought they might never do it again.
And so their were lots of people with tears (including the grown men) in the audience. 🙂
Wonderful reaction. This may be the first time a reactor has reacted to this version.
Because of this song, I am confident that we BABYMETAL fans will never be part of the bullying.
Really. If only we had met them earlier. When the girls first performed in Europe, this was the last song they played. It is the song that became their spiritual prop and the first song that the British audience went wild for. We believe that this song will be loved for a long time as a beacon of hope in a world that has changed so much.
This song is so beautiful and powerful to me, and the happy smiles after all the chaos makes my heart feel warm :)
Good reaction 🤙Every time they do this song it's always epic! Every time they end a show and start with the "we are" it always gets me emotional. I think it's just seeing them so happy and engaged with the crowd, wanting everyone to know they are as one, but also just knowing they made it to where they are and deserve everything they have. Proud moment for fans I guess 🔥🦊🤘
Great reaction - I really enjoyed that. It is a little ironic you were more involved with the song than the choreo for once since the choreo in this really does relate so much to the lyrics ... especially with Su, Moa and all 3 Avengers on stage and the fighting/bullying parts of the choreo during the guitar breaks.
In that last guitar break Moa was fighting off all 3 Avengers ... until finally Su stepped in and threatened to kick them all in the head if they didn't stop.
I love this performance with all 3 Avengers and both East and West Kami Bands all on stage performing together. This only happened twice - they did the same for the finale with 'Road of Resistance' the night before.
IDZ was their original show closer and it is great they have brought it back to be used in that same capacity again. It was actually the second song they ever played live - they held its official release back until one or two other songs like 'Iine' (that is iine) was released, possibly because it is a more straightforward metal song and Koba was wanting to establish they would not be limited to just one style before putting this song out.
IDZ also pre-dates 'Gimme Chocolate' by quite a long time. 'Gimme Chocolate' was the song and video that went viral in 2014 before the album was released, but it was absolutely not their first song, there were several songs before that one.
With 'Gimme Chocolate' you could watch the official video and you will get most of the choreo I guess (but bear in mind the audio is not live and the Kami Band were not on stage). Personally I would say to try a live version ... for example live on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert is a very small and intimate performance area and the Kami Band are right behind the girls too.
First time I saw them in Wembley Arena, I thought I might have teared up but in reality I was too stunned to react. Just tunneled vision towards Su the whole show xD
Probably my favorite Babymetal song if I had to pick one. As a song, it still sounds amazing, the messaging is just incredible. The lyrics broken down line by line are heartbreaking yet inspiring and full of hope at the same time.
What a powerful message and who better to deliver it than some powerful young ladies?
Some folks say the choreo is a little outdated for their current age but I think it still is full of strength, charm, and kawaii.
Love it!
Edit: someone mentioned the live at Sonisphere in 2014 version of this song, I would actually highly recommend you check it out, whether it's a reaction or just on your own time. It was the first time I believe they played in a huge venue outside of Japan and the UK crowd is known for being hostile to "different" styles.
You thought you got emotional watching this version .. imagine watching the three of them when they basically were starting. ..the conviction and courage they had on that stage in front of that crowd AND the powerful messaging of the song? Tears always show up when I watch it haha. Truly awesome.
What other band is there where watching a simple show ending can make you both laugh and cry? It’s so good to see the girls so happy.
Exactly!
As for the call-and-response "We are... Babymetal", I'm not sure where I got the assumption that *inclusive-we* would be implied. Same as "The One" comprising fans and Babymetal. Sense of unity on a level of their own.
LJIME DAME ZETTI
I love this song but whenever I hear Su go “Sayonara” I remember Yui saying “Bye bye” & I get all emotional… I miss our little tomato so much 😢
No idea why it took you so long to get to this song but better late than never, right?
The avenger in the front was Kano, Riho and Momoko were in the back. Either way, in case you didn’t notice, not only did they bring all 3 avengers, but also both Kami bands on stage for the closing song on each day of the LMG shows, which was incredible and shows how much respect Babymetal has for everyone supporting them. I always love to see all their smiling faces at the end of the show and how incredible happy all of them are. Pure joy! ❤🤘🔥🦊
One L too many for ijime. hehehe
It is easy to confuse I and L when seeing the spelling. very normal.
Just like the other song "Iine" is often mistaken as line when it is Iine. o(≧∀≦)o iine.
Ijime(ijime)=bullying. Dame=don't. Zettai=Definitely.
Thanks for the great reaction to that epic performance 🦊🤘
I think it's really mature how it's actually a song about bullying, and not just being a victim of it. They talk about how sometimes we are the ones that hurt someone, willingly or unwillingly, and that also hurts us back. What we have to do is to be better than yesterday, and i really love the message.
I think the idea of a "running" choreography is genius. Now I'm dying to see that in BABYMETAL. It could work so well!
They could definitely pull that off in some of their bigger venues
If you want to see them run: Ijime, Dame, Zettai Tokyo Dome. 🙂
This is a pretty epic version of this song 5 ladies and 2 bands on stage.
Lovely reaction, you share our passion. I shed a tear every time I watch this, so glad you did too 😢😂🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Wow, it's been a while since I saw this version. Normally reactors choose the Sonisphere version as you don't have to worry about copyright issues with that version, but this was awesome too. I had actually forgotten about this one lol I love seeing you get all emotional with Babymetal, it is very fitting. I think we all do. As you said in a previous reaction a long time ago, I think it was your Meta Taro reaction, It's something about Su's voice.
Another song I'm REALLY looking forward to you reacting to is Dusk till Dawn and also one other song, Tales of Destinies (I think you'll REALLY have fun with the choreo with this song). Can't wait for you to react to those!! lol
IDZ es una de las primeras canciones que escuché de BabyMetal. Es difícil encontrar a un coreografo reaccionando a ellas, lo cual me resulta increíble. Definitivamente no se parecen a nada de lo que hemos visto en occidente sus movimientos o las interpretaciones de los ritmos. Ojalá subas más reacciones, hay una coreografía increible en la canción "Shanti Shanti" 🇲🇽🦊🤘
👍 👍
Great reaction!
As mentioned all avengers and Suzuka, Moa AND both West and East Kami Bands performed both nights (this was the end of Day 1 Legend Metal Galaxy concert Day 2 concluded with Road of Resistance)
Day 1 and 2 included almost the entire BabyMetal song catalog performed LIVE and in my opinion is BabyMetal’s greatest concert.
Until next time.
This was the second song they ever performed live. It took them a while to release it as a single because they weren't confident how a song this heavy would go over. Great song. Su has said she receives letters from fans across the world who tell her how this song helped them get past being bullied, and give them the confidence to face their bullies.
There were 3 Avengers on stage because this was the final show of their world tour, and they had all the musicians and all the dancers who performed that tour on stage at once for this finale. They know how to put on a show.
I Love it when they did Songs with all avengers and both Kami Bands. They did it only for 2 Songs: IDZ and Road of resistance.
It's so cool when they sing against bullying and thousands of people go along. Definitely tear Material. For me especially when Su spoke the Intro. Great Reaction!
yes it was all the avengers. but also both bands so you had 2 drummers, 2 bassists, and 4 guitarists. how they can all work together is awesome. they had 2 shows 2 nights in a row where this was the end song one night and Road of Resistance, same all avengers, the other night to finish the show. this song was actually used by the Japanese government in their program to stop bullying. the point in this song that is so strong is that it explains that even though the bully is the bad part but also the ones watching and not doing anything about it. basically saying you are like a bully if you watch bullying and dont do anything about it.
One of my favorit. This , Akatsuki and No rain No rainbow.
Recently, a Japanese celebrity took their own life. It is said that the cause was heartless cyberbullying and slander on the internet. Bullying is not acceptable. Absolutely not.
It’s so easy to slander, takes nothing at all- but the lasting impact the words can have on a person. So sad
I love your clothes. Is that a kebaya?
If you could be the choreographer for one BABYMETAL song, which song would you choose?
Headbanger, but with new babymetal- light and darkness
Nice choice. I would love to see MOAMETAL dance with the choreography you came up with.
🍅💀🍅
🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
BABY METAL🔥🤘🦊🤘🔥
their performance of this live in the UK (Sonisphere?) might be easier for you to look at the dancing. It's also the performance that helped launch this production in Europe.
It's funny, this song is actually a parody of an anti-drug campaign, 'Mayaku Dame Zettai', so in some sense it's meant to be humorous and over-the-top, but...man, the earnestness of the message just really works sometimes. Not always, at least for me, but when it does hit, it hits good. Glad you enjoyed it.
You need to come to London in november and experience them!
I live in London lol they are coming when I fly out to America for my cousins wedding 😢
@@xiaouiris Aww that's a shame, but your time will come.
@@xiaouirisTell your cousin to move the wedding to London..... seriously! What are they thinking??? 😂
@@AxeSwipe2011 I know right!!!!
👍 Great reaction. 🖖 ❤
A big hug for you my friend Xiaouiris!!!....No one better than you, to make a reaction video and analyze this incredible singer who is leaving all the experts, literally with their jaws on the floor (Do you remember Jim Carrey's movie "The Mask"? well, just like that)...In 2017, a 22-year-old singer from Kazakhstan, named Dimash Kudaibergen, was invited to participate in the famous Chinese program for professional singers called "The Singer"... In his first appearance, Dimash covered one of the most difficult songs in the world, a famous French composition called "S.O.S. D'un Terrien En Détresse"...Since then all this madness began on the internet, UA-cam and social networks worldwide and he is already considered the best singer on the entire planet... It is almost impossible to see a human being, being able to reach vocal ranges of 8 octaves, that is, the 88 keys of a digital piano, which allows him to reach all registers, both masculine and feminine, that is, he can sing as Bass, Baritone, Tenor, Contratenor, Contralto, Mezzosoprano and Soprano...You can see in UA-cam to all kinds of experts (Vocal coaches, analysts, singing teachers, singers, youtubers, reactors, etc.), who have dedicated themselves to watching his videos and verifying for themselves that what is said about him is completely true...In addition to all this, Dimash is capable of singing in more than 12 languages...In all his concerts worldwide, tickets are sold in just seconds, via the internet, due to the immense popularity he has worldwide... Anyway, I think you haven't met this impressive singer yet, so here is the link to the first song that Dimash performed in China in that year 2017, the song S.O.S., and if it doesn't bother you, I would like you to mention me as the person who recommended it to you...Warning: You have to be prepared for thousands of views, comments and new subscribers...The video It is more recent, so it does not have the millions of views that the first ones, but it is more complete, including an intro, subtitles in several languages and better audio and sound quality...ua-cam.com/video/bDX3FhmyNac/v-deo.html
Hi! Thank you! I don’t analyse singers on this channel, I am a choreographer not a vocal coach. You should check out the fairy voice mother- she has done a lot of Dimash!
@5:42 Whiplash? You still haven't watched "Gimmie Chocolate"? I really think if you wanted watch a version of this song that would allow you a chance to really check out the Choreo you should check out the Metal Resistance - Black Night @ Tokyo Dome version of this song. The camera focuses more on the stage then the later shows. It feels like in the more recent live videos they show alot more crowd shots and far shots, especially during the Avenger Era. Also wouldn't be right if i did point out the "L", it's a common mistake. Two "i" no "L" in iijme.
DON'T FRICKEN DO AN AVENGERS VERSION OF GIMMIE CHOCOLATE, DO THE ORIGINAL VIDEO AT LEAST FOR YOUR FIRST VIEWING..
@@stangcobra592 LOL, no what i was trying to say was a different version of IDZ. The original Gimmie Chocolate is always going to be the best, also most youtube friendly version of that song.
should have done sonisphere 2014
I went for a reactor resource version to guarantee it didn’t block
@@xiaouiris Ok, and this is a very good version of IDZ for many reasons (5 girls, 2 kami bands), but please, look at the 2014 Sonisphere version. They were at their first big concert outside Asia, in front of 60.000 english metalheads which knew nothing about them and which started to throw against them bottles of water filled by urine to show their lack of respect for an unknown group of girls who pretend to do metal music. At the end of the concert (IDZ was the closing song), they had "converted" the critical crowd into thousands of fans. It is called "the sonisphere miracle".
@@enricomusante6173 Nothing was thrown at them. There were online threats to do it. Losers didn't have the nerve as BABYMETAL unleashed their kawaii charm on the crowd and started their world domination. 🤘🦊🤘
Always annoying and feel it is rude when someone just says "you should have done" how about that was great, maybe you should check out the famous performance at Sonisphere too. This was a great one to react too as well. 🤘🦊🤘
@@mikepowers9486Just because your boyfriend didn't give you enough hugs, don't take it out on me. I find you annoying but there is not much that I can do about that. I always feel that it is annoying and rude when someone reacts to a comment. I can't believe that there are people in the world with this much time on their hands.
😉😉😉🤘🤘🤘
Excelente reacción y muy acertados sus comentarios, a mi me encanta Babymetal tanto por sus canciones como por sus coreografias y lo que más me gusta es que no sexualizan sus movimientos como la mayoría de los artistas de hoy, sus coreografias van de la mano con sus canciones, son geniales.
It's crazy you haven't done Gimmie Chocolate yet, just do the official video, 100's of peeps react to it, it won't get blocked. It's the song that made the world notice.. And just saying you should have done a version of this with the original trio like Tokyo dome..
Yeah upon hindsight I’m surprised too
@@xiaouiris Please don't take what you see seriously, this was during their infancy when the J Pop /Metal fusion was Big. You'll get the same vibe like when you reviewed Catch me if you can, the girls moves are based on the lyrics so it won't be intricate but you'll be smiling ear to ear when you see how much fun Yui and Moa are having and Su giving her usual Killer blank stare :). FYI the official vid is from Legend 97 when Su just turned 16 and Yui and Moa were 14.
I would recommend: BABYMETAL - Gimme Chocolate!! (The Late Show with Stephen Colbert)
Man live with all the avengers is just something else fr 🥺 no words, it's just incredible. Super MOA-chan silly run is the best thing lol they had a blast with all these songs for sure
❤🤘🦊🤘❤
🤘🦊🤘
The avenger in the front formation of three was Kano Fujihira, you just saw her leading Sakura Gakuin in your Otomegokoro reaction, the funny thing is that both videos are more or less from the same dates, Kano was in both groups at the time, just like the Babymetal girls in their beginnings. Finally he left the Avengers to focus on her own project @onefive that you also did a reaction of them 😁
Momoko and Kano are not easy to tell apart. Once again someone proves this. The Avenger up front in Yui's spot is Kano. Momoko is at screen right, Riho at screen left.
They had all three avengers on stage for a total of three songs. If you consider IN THE NAME OF a song.
Su did not sing for two hours already. It's little more than one hour only. The Blu-ray runs almost 71 minutes and she does not do vocals during the first piece (IN THE NAME OF).
Even til this day I couldn't find out how this damn band can always give me goosebumps, even BEFORE they really start performing. One thing is clear: not many bands can do this. Maybe you should watch a performance with "Chibimetal" now (3 youngsters, 2 of them from Sakura Gakuin, who performed i GUESS two songs with BM recently. Imagine suddenly having two stages with two Babymetals in the venue) Greets from Germany. Enjoy!
I don't often agree 100% with your assessments (which is, of course, natural) but in this case I was literally nodding at every sentence you spoke.
This is my favourite performance of the song because of the unity thing you mentioned. No matter which Avenger may be someone's favourite, no matter whether someone prefers the Japanese Kami Band or the American Kami band who play the overseas gigs, *everyone* the fans love was on that stage pushing the same message: "No more bullying, forever."
(And I haven't forgotten Yui, but sadly she is no longer an active member and so obviously couldn't be a part of it. But she performed this song many times too, and always with conviction.)
I've never really been bullied, but I have kids and grandkids and I've seen enough of it to find this song very emotional. This performance especially so.
There seems to be something about some of the Japanese bands that just bypasses the mind and goes straight for the heart. Some songs by BABYMETAL and Nemophila in particular really give me a beating.
😂
「LlJME DAME ZETTAI 」❌ 「ijime dame zettai」⭕ OK？
