Momoko earned it and deserves to be called Momometal. She deserves that mic. New album. New outlook musically, professionally by lead performer. I hope we get future BabyMetal M&M (Moametal & Momometal) songs.
Momoko has been a favorite of mine since her Sakura Gakuin days. She was the only SG member to create a choreographed routine for the group under her Super Dance Unit - SSD. IMO, she was robbed of screen time during the Girls Planet 999 competition. This more than makes up for that. : ) I'm both happy for her, and strangely proud.
You may know what happened to the winners of GP999? I wish them success but I wonder if any of those winners would want to swap winning to be in Babymetal? The fraction of hope of Yui returning has gone. I do wonder why she has disappeared,? Her statement said she wanted to continue as Yui Munzo? Oh well the fox God certainly does not know! Glad one of your favourites has the third spot, she certainly deserves it.
@@Glynthepin I stopped following GP999 after Momoko left. She was the only reason I was following cause I wanted to vote for her. As for Yui, she has always been very shy, maybe the fanfare was too much for her and she just wants to live a normal life from then on. But we will still welcome her warmly and forever fondly if and when she does emerge. Not that she's not already well thought of even with her absence. She will always be a super lady in the Fukei's eyes.
@@Codametal Not comparing but similar to Su sister. The public figure aspect does not work out to be to everyones desire and of course the pressures must be intense. Thank you for your reply.
Just got back from the show. I have NEVER seen Su smile as much as she did at this show. It was like she was reenergized. It's going to be a great year.
Momo is the perfect choice. She’ll fit right in with the other two goofballs. In fact having seen pix and clips she’s right in her element. BABYMETAL are back and looks like it’ll be even more fun than ever.
I literally cried when I heard the news! She definitely earned her place with the band! I can’t wait to see Moametal and Momometal perform Black BM songs! Let’s go!!!
Thinking of Momoko its been longer than we think since she joined BM as one of the Avengers. Congrats to "Momometal" who supported so long with no official name annouced.
Hello ,Callie San. I went to "Clear Night". Right next to MOMO-METAL, 4th floor seats. We screamed and cried together during BABYMETAL DETH's "MOMO-METAL DETH". Congratulations MOMO-METAL. We will also support the new BABYMETAL! * I am using google translation.
That one concert, I forgot which one, but they were performing Road of Resistance with momoko as a filler and the way she performed and was emotional throughout the whole performance made me say “HER! SHE’S THE ONE!”
@@johnschultz7765 YES! That was it! I remember telling myself “I wouldn’t be mad, actually I would be thrilled if she became a permanent member” and now we’re here ☺️ May the Fox God guide all things in the future
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 As an eyewitness at the venue : Even before the announcement of Momometal, I was convinced that Momoko would be the 3rd, because : (1) She was captured by cameras and displayed on the huge backdrop screen as much as Moa during the show. (2) In the Shin-BMD, she was crucified on the transparent cross equally as Su / Moa. (As you know, BMD is a song to introduce the members. Shin-BMD was played 4 times in Budokan as well, but the girls' faces were covered with veils in foggy situation that time.)
Wow, that's nice! Wish I had seen the show... But I think it will be hard for Babymetal to come to South America anytime soon =/ As a Japanese, do you have any local news on Yui-chan? We here on the West have almost none! Nothing on her health, or on her plans for the future. I'm guessing that it may be something related to her contract with Amuse, that don't let her appear anywhere, nor be interviewed. Also, it may be the contract's fault for them to have taken so long to add a new member. Thanks in advance, Flugelhorn-san! 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Love that Momoko is the new member. To me, she felt like the most obvious choice if they were going to add someone to the group. After my surprise at the Momometal announcement had died down, my first thought was "I wonder what Callie's reaction will be?". Glad to see you back.
Can't believe Feb 2020 was the last time we saw them! Really glad I went to the UK and met so many people. Even I have to admit the past years wasn't all that exciting and people have moved on, hopefully we get to see them at their peak again. They've become a very very different band now!
OMG, I am SOOOOO happy to see you at this historical moment! The Momometal announcement is bitter sweet. Now we know for a fact that Yui is never coming back (sadness beyond sadness). But Momoko finally becoming an official member (super happiness). I can cry at the same time for sadness and happiness. A 2 in 1. Absolutely loved the reveal.
Happy to see you back here Callie ❤ And congratulations to Momometal, she totally deserved it🎉❤🎉❤ I know she was gonna got it, everything was leading to it, Pia MM, her birth place, and even a little bit the date That was such an awesome show
Holly Sh*t !!! Momometal announced as third member AND Callie posting a new video??? The Fox God has blessed us with TWO miracles in the same day!!! 🤘🦊🤘
Great to see you again, Callie. I admit I couldn't believe it at first. I mean, I knew they were going to announce something big and I was 99,99 sure it was Momoko being promoted to an official member position but I expected Koba teasing us today to make the proper announcement tomorrow. But it wasn't that way and I had to triple check it before going nuts on that sm I apparently can't mention here (I wasn't listening to the stream because I don't want spoilers on the live versions of the new songs) 😁 Congrats to Momoko, now MOMOMETAL, she totally deserve it. And I can't wait to see them live... I have to wait a month since I'm going to Berlin (I have to travel anyway so, I decided to go to Germany and spend a few days there). Until next time! 🤘🦊
First of all long time no see Callie how's life been treating ya and second Congratulations Momoko or should I say MOMO-METAL on becoming the 3rd new member do us proud and with this Yui can finally be put to rest I will always cherish the times when she was with them but it is time to move on and I hope the ENTIRE BABYMETAL community feels the same 🤘🦊🤘
Correct person for the 3rd spot. Momoko fits in so well with Su and Moa, and the courography between Moa and Momoko reminds me of how Moa and Yui were dancing together. I more or less expecting this and came as no surprise to me . Think i got a big hint as Momokos look changed in Light and Darkness mv (hair and make up different) getting her ready for her well-earned place alongside Su and Moa . Counting the days down to the London show . It has been a long time since Apollo show Good to see you back reacting to BabyMetal 😁🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼♥️
This is long overdue, Momoko has performed her apprenticeship brilliantly. We might get longer performances if they do some songs for moa/momoko ala Black BabyMetal. Happy times either way.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!! CALLIE HAS COME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MOST FAMOUS BABYMETAL FAN IN THE WORLD HAS RETURNED!!!!!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ICANT BELIEVE!!!!!! THATA WHAT I REALLY WANTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am happy that Momoko Okazaki is the newest member, out of The Avengers, she was seen the most. And she seems to be a good fit for the band, and she is a delight to see. Momometal is here, and I believe and know she will do very well.🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊
You have very genuine love for the band and it's so inspiring. 🤘🦊🔥 I'm happy for them, Momoko deserve it and now BABYMETAL can continue without any hesitation 🙂
Great to see you back Callie. Can’t wait for the London show, it’s going to be even more special with Momo as an official member. And yes, Metalizm is the best song from the new album 🤘🏻🔥
I’ve been waiting for your reaction! This is what I felt as well. I’m truly happy for her and it’s well deserved! I can’t wait for them to tour in the US. I’m for sures seeing them at aftershock
Nice reaction. Sometime ago I found Babymetal online purely by accident. I was looking for something else completely unrelated. And was shortly hooked. Wanted to know what the lyrics were was part of the hook. It just got me looking more into them. And then I came across your youtube videos. And you helped me get even more hooked. Your excitement for them did that. I'm glad to see you post about them again after all this time. I started pulling for Momoko to be officially in Babymetal before the other avengers left. Something about her just stood out to me. I think it was how happy she was to be there. And then when she no longer was breathing hard after the songs ended. I knew she needed to be part of this. It saddened me when she tried out for a kpop group. I know Babymetal was "sealed" at the time. And a gal has to work. But I was hoping they would have asked her to be in Babymetal then so they could have her as part of the new album. Now I'm full of joy that she became the new member as she should have been some time ago. I'm still hoping to see some of your reactions to their new songs. Plus, since they announced there will be a new member, I kept listening to the new tracks listening for a new voice. Now I'm a feeling like Babymetal might pull another surprise by releasing a new album in back-to-back years. Unprecedented for Babymetal. Momoko is officially a member she needs to be officially on an album. It would be cool if she has a mic for their next show. This will change everything. The live show Blue ray will be her first recording with them. Does that make history. New member of a band. Very first recording with the new band is at a live show and not on the album they are touring for. Another case of how Babymetal just does things differently. I look forward to you posting about Babymetal again and Maybe appearing in another video by them. 🦊🦊🦊
Awesome a new member to the very grand dominated force of spectacular perfectly performance skills of abilities! From the talented young skillful ladies of babymetal!🔥👏
This group has got me addicted since I downloaded tiktok on my phone on the Jan 3rd and saw a random clip Babymetal's "Catch me if you can" from the Red Sun Festival 2016. We all love Yui but momoko NOW momo-metal has been brilliant in their live shows . Hope to see/read/listen to her interviews and her english is very good somesay even better then su's
Thanks for this video, for me it felt like: finally. I do think the music suffered in a different way, having less voices meant certain songs felt like something was missing, well literally something was missing. A second voice singing with Moametal at the same time in Karate for example. Did you know the show from today and the shows from Jan, means they've performed all songs already ? I think they might have been general rehearsals and tomorrow they might perform all of them, because it's a concept album, they should be able to use them all and make it one lore story. Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing Momometal sing along with Moametal and Su-metal tomorrow (or whenever I can hear it - proper). Yes, they were strange times, I've recently seen my first show again since Babymetal just before covid. I went to see Bloodywood and they were great, good live sound and energy too.
I am very happy that you are back! Seeing you being featured on Japanese TV and knowing the passion of their overseas fans is one of the reasons why I became mate. Yesterday's performance was very cool and nervous, but at the end I felt very happy😊 From Japan ありがとう!
Actually this isn't all that unexpected here!! What gave it away for me was Yokohama performance. This is Momoko home town & considering how their last January performances ended with 3 coffins on stage. It was probably a given that Babymetal would be a trio again. Now, some hoping for a Yui return might be shocked & disappointed. However, given that 5 years has passed since her departure. There was little chance of her returning. In all Momoko earned her place here and am happy it's finally official. It will be interesting how they work that into their lore now given how important that has been to their overall presentation. Album itself is brilliant & much better then anticipated. It will be awesome to see how this plays out on on tour!! 🤘🦊💕
I'm so happy, it didn't feel real for a bit. I'm glad someone else feels as effected as I did. I found out through a post on Reddit and it was like "huh?" Then I got super nostalgic, happy and sad and confused then back to happy.
I am so happy. She was always my favorite of the Avengers.(I never really liked the name Avengers...so MCU derivative) I have been screaming for 3 years now "Give Momoko Twin tails,a mic and a glove on her right hand and lets get on with loving her" They have finally pulled the trigger on what we have always known was basically inevitable. I really hope they allow her to fully participate in all legacy songs. Black BABYMETAL especially and BMD etc. I am hoping for her to get matching twin tails like Moa... it's such a cute look and they are a BABYMETAL tradition and necessary for songs like Headbangerrr! Welcome Momo... we are ready to love you!
Awww Callie this video put such a big smile on my face!! So glad you’re back on UA-cam😊 Pls pls do a budokan unboxing at some point, I believe you’ve had the restraint to keep it that long omg. Can’t wait to see ya🥹🥹
I knew that a third member was coming, and it's a good thing. Now Babymetal has returned, and it's good to see you back Callie, I hope everything is going well for you!!! Love from Alabama.
Quick Repo Day 2 (April 2) Today's highlight : "Iine" , old BMD incl. " Momometal death" shout • Momoko with mic & twin pigtails • New colorful outfit ( only Metal Kingdom in black outfit) * West Kamis [14songs with 6 new] * Kingdom, RoR, Iine, Papaya, Mirror, Light & Darkness * Karate with clone BM ( 6 girls) * Monochrome, Metalizm, Distortion, Divine Attack, The One (Japanese), old BMD, IDZ World tour announced. I enjoyed from bottom my heart after Momometal confirmed yesterday
The new member was already announced from the beginning. Momoko's face appeared in an advertisement. I still had (and have) hopes that Yui will one day come back. After Babymetal stopped being a trio, it lost its appeal. Mikio's passing was also very difficult. The Japanese Kamiband was replaced by excellent musicians, but without identity. The hiatus was long. The children are now adults. The songs have become more serious. I felt like a father watching his children leave and the house become empty and sad. I hope that Babymetal returns renewed. It's certainly a great joy to see CallieMetal back!
Welcome back to UA-cam. I am going to the Leeds concert, though my guess is that you will go to more than one. I am already arguing with people that they will drag Joakim on stage for Oh! MAGINAI - he will be there in the arenas. I am of course pleased for Momo Metal, anything else would have been grossly unfair
Knowing how happy Sabaton are to support Babymetal, I don't think much dragging will be needed. Roll on Glasgow for me, my first time seeing them. Wasn't too bothered to go see Sabaton until I saw Babymetal on the poster. Then it became a "Take my money!" moment.
Welcome back, exciting times for BM and I shall be seeing them, Sabaton and Lordi soon in Glasgow !!!! and currently listening to the Other One. Hoping it is as good as Wembley or Utrecht.
Good to see you here. I was thinking that Momo would get it. Even though Yui is still on the Amuse site and she hasn't started her solo career I wonder if she left entertainment.
Well, that just puts the final nail in Yui's return coffin... Pun very much intended. As much as we'd all love to see her return, it's been a while now, and it's time we move on. Maybe they had some contractual issues, that wouldn't allow a new member to be added, and that also prohibited Yui from having any kind of appearance. We'll always love our Tomato Princess, our Angel of Dance, but for now, I only wish her the best in both personal and professional lives. As for Momo-chan, it would've been a waste not to "promote" her to member. Unfair, even. I personally was rooting for Riho, especially due to her history with Su, but Momoko? She more than deserved it. Maybe we might even get some new Black Babymetal songs, now that Momometal is here! All in all, BABYMETAL is back. As a trio. This is the way. 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Great initial reaction there! I saw the fancam footage from Black Night some hours later and I'd been spoiled about the ending, but looking back at it -- yeah, it was totally set up to lead one to believe Su and Moa would graduate (and now, enter the 'Mysterious Trio' as the new Babymetal). All done totally on purpose, of course; Koba being Koba.
I was thinking she should be the third with Pa Pa Ya's release. She's been in every performance video they've done as music videos. She was obviously learning the songs since she was singing along even without a microphone. I don't think I've ever seen any of the other avengers in things officially posted on youtube.
welcome back. Me and my daughter are super excited about the news as well. a little upset they got rid of yui's skull in the logo but i guess you gotta move on.
Koba was definitely trying to fool us into thinking that Su and Moa were retiring and I think he had a lot of people wondering because you could hear a pin drop while the lore video was playing as everyone held their breath.
Congrats to Momometal, hopefully she gets to do some songs with Moa, that would be awesome. I would probably have been more excited about this if they let the kami band play without masks. I remember seeing the Japanese kami band live, witnessing their charisma and then seeing a technically good but charisma lacking (due to masks) western kami band at the Forum in 2019. I know the focus should be on the girls but the masks are ridiculous. Glad you mentioned 2022 being a particularly crap year. Now that the negativity is out of the way I am eagerly awaiting US tour dates. Babymetal concerts are a thing I do with my daughter, she first saw them when she was 6, she is now a teenager. She is still a bit young for the mosh pit but she has set has set her sights on being in the pit at some point.
Momoko earned it and deserves to be called Momometal. She deserves that mic. New album. New outlook musically, professionally by lead performer. I hope we get future BabyMetal M&M (Moametal & Momometal) songs.
yes yes yes
😂M&M is perfect description 🤘🦊
omfg XDDD eminem is in shambles rn
M&M songs, love that
@@KillsAll. Now I’m imagining a Babymetal song featuring Eminem…How would that even work? 🤣
Momoko has been a favorite of mine since her Sakura Gakuin days.
She was the only SG member to create a choreographed routine for the group under her Super Dance Unit - SSD.
IMO, she was robbed of screen time during the Girls Planet 999 competition.

Good to see you back reacting to BabyMetal 😁🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼♥️
Yeah that was a very quiet concert hall for a few minutes. Also, that's the most british pronunciation of Momoko I have ever heard ☺
My favourite is METALZM too😭😭💜💜 So excited and happy for MOMOMETAL✨and for us the babymetal fans haha 🥲

Awesome!!! I love Momoko! She gives her ALL in every performance! Great stuff!!
I'm very happy that it is Momoko, she deserves it, in my opinium.
And I'm looking foreward to see them live in April on the Sabaton-Tour.

Great to see you back Callie, the hype was real! Looking forward to Momobanger tomorrow!
Awesome a new member to the very grand dominated force of spectacular perfectly performance skills of abilities! From the talented young skillful ladies of babymetal!🔥👏
I bought the Throne Cover as well...its the best. Looks so tough.
First video in 2 years! Hope you're doing well Callie!!
This group has got me addicted since I downloaded tiktok on my phone on the Jan 3rd and saw a random clip Babymetal's "Catch me if you can" from the Red Sun Festival 2016. We all love Yui but momoko NOW momo-metal has been brilliant in their live shows . Hope to see/read/listen to her interviews and her english is very good somesay even better then su's
I will be seeing them in may.
Cant wait im so happy.
Yeah that Lore ending took FOREVER to get to the point and yeah, it seemed like a lore word salad til the end. So happy for Momometal!
Thanks for this video, for me it felt like: finally.
I do think the music suffered in a different way, having less voices meant certain songs felt like something was missing, well literally something was missing. A second voice singing with Moametal at the same time in Karate for example.
Did you know the show from today and the shows from Jan, means they've performed all songs already ?
I think they might have been general rehearsals and tomorrow they might perform all of them, because it's a concept album, they should be able to use them all and make it one lore story.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing Momometal sing along with Moametal and Su-metal tomorrow (or whenever I can hear it - proper).
Yes, they were strange times, I've recently seen my first show again since Babymetal just before covid. I went to see Bloodywood and they were great, good live sound and energy too.
I am very happy that you are back!
Seeing you being featured on Japanese TV and knowing the passion of their overseas fans is one of the reasons why I became mate.
Yesterday's performance was very cool and nervous, but at the end I felt very happy😊
From Japan ありがとう!
Actually this isn't all that unexpected here!! What gave it away for me was Yokohama performance. This is Momoko home town & considering how their last January performances ended with 3 coffins on stage.
It was probably a given that Babymetal would be a trio again. Now, some hoping for a Yui return might be shocked & disappointed.
However, given that 5 years has passed since her departure. There was little chance of her returning. In all Momoko earned her place here and am happy it's finally official.
It will be interesting how they work that into their lore now given how important that has been to their overall presentation. Album itself is brilliant & much better then anticipated. It will be awesome to see how this plays out on on tour!! 🤘🦊💕
I'm so happy, it didn't feel real for a bit. I'm glad someone else feels as effected as I did. I found out through a post on Reddit and it was like "huh?" Then I got super nostalgic, happy and sad and confused then back to happy.
Can't wait to see them live in June 😊
I am so happy. She was always my favorite of the Avengers.(I never really liked the name Avengers...so MCU derivative) I have been screaming for 3 years now "Give Momoko Twin tails,a mic and a glove on her right hand and lets get on with loving her" They have finally pulled the trigger on what we have always known was basically inevitable.
I really hope they allow her to fully participate in all legacy songs. Black BABYMETAL especially and BMD etc. I am hoping for her to get matching twin tails like Moa... it's such a cute look and they are a BABYMETAL tradition and necessary for songs like Headbangerrr!
Welcome Momo... we are ready to love you!
Awww Callie this video put such a big smile on my face!! So glad you’re back on UA-cam😊 Pls pls do a budokan unboxing at some point, I believe you’ve had the restraint to keep it that long omg. Can’t wait to see ya🥹🥹
I knew that a third member was coming, and it's a good thing. Now Babymetal has returned, and it's good to see you back Callie, I hope everything is going well for you!!! Love from Alabama.
Callie, thank you for sharing your thoughts. You are such a joy to hear from. Momoko (MomoMetal) earned this and I'm happy for her. The One 👾

Geez with your insane reaction you'd think Yui was coming back!
The new member was already announced from the beginning. Momoko's face appeared in an advertisement. I still had (and have) hopes that Yui will one day come back. After Babymetal stopped being a trio, it lost its appeal. Mikio's passing was also very difficult. The Japanese Kamiband was replaced by excellent musicians, but without identity. The hiatus was long. The children are now adults. The songs have become more serious. I felt like a father watching his children leave and the house become empty and sad. I hope that Babymetal returns renewed. It's certainly a great joy to see CallieMetal back!
With momoko being offical now, and being 20, I wonder if we can get a Momo banger like Su and Moa did when they were 20
It has to happen, and tonight seems the perfect moment.
正直な気持ちが一番大事だよね
まぁなんにせよCallieさんが元気で良かった!
omg i understand your reaction😭i was shaking so much i thought i was crazy for feeling like this
ありがとう❤
ももこだったんだ。
貴女からの動画で知る🤣😭😋👍🇯🇵
ゆいメタル以外なら
ももこしか居ないし、
ももこで本当によかった。
おめでとう🎊🎉
ももこ。😋👍🇯🇵
Welcome back to UA-cam. I am going to the Leeds concert, though my guess is that you will go to more than one. I am already arguing with people that they will drag Joakim on stage for Oh! MAGINAI - he will be there in the arenas. I am of course pleased for Momo Metal, anything else would have been grossly unfair
Knowing how happy Sabaton are to support Babymetal, I don't think much dragging will be needed. Roll on Glasgow for me, my first time seeing them. Wasn't too bothered to go see Sabaton until I saw Babymetal on the poster. Then it became a "Take my money!" moment.
I wanna listen to Momoko'scream and chorus.
Maybe,just maybe we could see Momoーbanger...
I love Momoko! Great to see you Callie!!!!
It was trending on Google in my country Australia. I only found out 20 minutes ago. I thought it was never going to happen.
元気にしとったんかワレェ😂
モモコ良かったね❤嬉しいよ❤
Wow great to see you back on UA-cam 😊🎉
It might just be a support spot but this Wembley gig feels very much like a traditional BM gig. So looking forward to meeting everyone again.
OMG can't wait you to see METALZM and BMD 😆 Everything was sooo good. I think they are ready to go🦊🦊🦊
We had a splendid night today🤘 see you.
Welcome back, exciting times for BM and I shall be seeing them, Sabaton and Lordi soon in Glasgow !!!! and currently listening to the Other One. Hoping it is as good as Wembley or Utrecht.
Good to see you here. I was thinking that Momo would get it. Even though Yui is still on the Amuse site and she hasn't started her solo career I wonder if she left entertainment.
Well, that just puts the final nail in Yui's return coffin... Pun very much intended.
As much as we'd all love to see her return, it's been a while now, and it's time we move on.
Maybe they had some contractual issues, that wouldn't allow a new member to be added, and that also prohibited Yui from having any kind of appearance. We'll always love our Tomato Princess, our Angel of Dance, but for now, I only wish her the best in both personal and professional lives.
As for Momo-chan, it would've been a waste not to "promote" her to member. Unfair, even. I personally was rooting for Riho, especially due to her history with Su, but Momoko? She more than deserved it. Maybe we might even get some new Black Babymetal songs, now that Momometal is here!
All in all, BABYMETAL is back.
As a trio.
This is the way.
🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Great initial reaction there! I saw the fancam footage from Black Night some hours later and I'd been spoiled about the ending, but looking back at it -- yeah, it was totally set up to lead one to believe Su and Moa would graduate (and now, enter the 'Mysterious Trio' as the new Babymetal). All done totally on purpose, of course; Koba being Koba.
I was thinking she should be the third with Pa Pa Ya's release. She's been in every performance video they've done as music videos. She was obviously learning the songs since she was singing along even without a microphone. I don't think I've ever seen any of the other avengers in things officially posted on youtube.
Momo earned it 🥺
Gotta say... I'm more than a little jealous of your Babymetal shrine behind you!
welcome back. Me and my daughter are super excited about the news as well. a little upset they got rid of yui's skull in the logo but i guess you gotta move on.
Welcome to Babymetal family Momometal 🍑
Koba was definitely trying to fool us into thinking that Su and Moa were retiring and I think he had a lot of people wondering because you could hear a pin drop while the lore video was playing as everyone held their breath.
A new Callie video?! JFDUDAWUIIUGV 😂😂
It's so exciting. I'm looking forward to the first interview and photo shoot.
How many times have you rewinded it back to the beginning?
Me: I cAn't believe it. MoUmoUmetal
Hell Yeah !!! MO MO KO 🍑❤🤗🤘🦊🤘#MOMOMETAL
Today is April Fools Day. I can't believe any news that is reported today.
Congrats to Momometal, hopefully she gets to do some songs with Moa, that would be awesome.
I would probably have been more excited about this if they let the kami band play without masks. I remember seeing the Japanese kami band live, witnessing their charisma and then seeing a technically good but charisma lacking (due to masks) western kami band at the Forum in 2019. I know the focus should be on the girls but the masks are ridiculous.
Glad you mentioned 2022 being a particularly crap year.
Now that the negativity is out of the way I am eagerly awaiting US tour dates. Babymetal concerts are a thing I do with my daughter, she first saw them when she was 6, she is now a teenager. She is still a bit young for the mosh pit but she has set has set her sights on being in the pit at some point.
