There isn't much that can be said about Junna, except that she is probably the most entertaining drummer of this generation, and is really, really good. She's is in her 20's now, but looks a bit younger.
Respect to you. I've watched a lot of reactions to her, but only one other drummer admitted that she is better than him. The Dragonforce drummer has reacted to this, and said that it was his favorite cover. Both that she did it so well and how much she enjoyed playing.
Imagine how much fun it would be to play a song with this lady. How could you not have the time of your life. The energy she brings to everything she plays is to large for life.
I’ve watched this video more the a dozen times today you my friend are the only one who has the background to really appreciate this skill. Great reaction thank you from Australia
Junna is a Japanese female so she's aged somewhere between 12 and 45!!!! 1:56 It's a CD!!! I haven't bought a CD in years, I miss it!!!! Dragonforce drummer said this was the best cover he's ever seen 7:44 That is in the song and the "Drinking" clip in the corner is an homage to the original video
I agree on two key points #1 it's a shame she has so few videos with such talent and #2 absolutely! Dragonforce needs to invite her as a guest when they do a show near her home town! And THAT will get her so many band opportunities and really kick off her drumming career!
Haruna(lovebites) Akane( band maid ) Murata Tamu ( nemophilla) and Junna (ex kakumei now trident , junna now is a freelancer) all female , Japanese amazing , tiny and crazy but the craziest of all is Junna , btw she born in 1996, she's 25 now 😅😅🤘🤘
I'd also love to see Junna guest with DragonForce! Would be absolutely amazing! And it's possible.. DragonForce drummer Gee Anzalone reacted to this video and said it was his favourite drum cover of the song, so the band is at least aware of her existence. Though maybe Gee doesn't want to risk his job security? 😆
Bonjour à tous C'est tout simplement phénoménale De vitesse de précision impressionnant Quand j'ai vue cela j'ai pas toucher ma batterie pendant un mois et je dois le dire je suis jaloux envieux Après 40 années de batterie jamais je ne pourrais faire cela Gratitude bravo à cette jeune fille 😍
Puno pozdrava od petra ova mala princeza metala koja svira vašu glazbu tako je dobra čuvajte ju to se događa u sto godina jednom tako je dobra za poludit puno pozdrava od petra
You might also like the drummer from Unlucky Morpheus. Their official music video for Black Pentagram. (I personally like it better than the sound mix on the live version)
This is an old video, so I assume you already know Junna was in a band called Trident. A great little band too. Their weight-to-noise ratio is off the charts. Their song "Voltage" is worth checking out.
I remember worrying that the drumming level would fall off when Junna left, but damn if Nagisa didn't hit the ground running. Also a superb beast of a drummer...
Junna Was in That "Band", Back When TheTrio was Called "GRBK". ("GirlsRockBandKakumei") After Junna (Left Due to Travel HeadAches...or Was "Replaced"), "GRBK" Became "TRiDENT". They Still Rock!
Pozdrav dragon force od petra obožavam vašu glazbu ali oa mala diva metala koja svira vašu glazbu jednostavno je diva jedna od vas tako je dobra kada je pogledam suze na oči mi krenu molim vas čuvajte tu malu u divu Petar hrvatska
What planet or dimension his she from, clearly not from Earth. Amazing talented young lad she is. Playing like a mad pro and school, plus social life, priceless education, to have such skills at young age. Godsmacked...
Pretty crazy skill set! I don't know as a recent subscriber if you have done a reaction video to Gojira's drummer, Mario Duplantier, but I would love to see you react to his technical playing style! Keep up the good work! Cheers from Massachusetts USA!
The thing about Juna and drummers like her is that, even if you don't necessarily like the music they're covering, their enthusiast is so contagious, you watch them just to see them have fun. Two examples for me personally would be Kalonica Nicx and Domino Santantonio.
Boris, this is one of my favorite reactions to this video. I’ve watched this at least a dozen times over the past few months. Wish you’d go back to her, either with “Ashes of the Dawn” or “Painkiller”
If you like Junna, I think you will love Yoyoka. She is a 12 year old drummer and she have been a pro since she was 6. The video of her, that went viral was, her cover of "Good Times, Bad Times". When she was 8 years old. Then ther is her cover of "YYZ" , by Rush, when she was 11 and a few months ago she did a fantastic cover of "Burn" by Deep Purple. At 11 years old she was inducted on Drummers World Top 500 drummers...
I recommend Voltage, which was recorded a few months before she left Girl's Rock Band Kakumei.ua-cam.com/video/9k9txMouU34/v-deo.html. No Regret ua-cam.com/video/ptmNCyIOjXU/v-deo.html and Utopia ua-cam.com/video/P88ZZ-VuXBs/v-deo.html are also good, but none of them focus on her as much as the band as a whole. That being said, if you like Love Bites, you should watch my favorite hard rock band, Band Maid. They are the best! Great lead vocals and backup vocals, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass guitar and drummer. The lead guitarist writes the music and the vocalists write the lyrics. ANY of their songs are recommended. Live versions are best. From Thrill in 2014 to Warning in 2021, they are awesome!
She has pictures on Twitter of her kit fully mic’d with a least a dozen mics on stands that would get the sound we hear on her videos, but would look awful. I’m thinking they recorded and mixed the drums separately from the video. I’ve been mixing and recording hard rock bands since the 90s and there is no way to get those tones with over heads and room mics. They could have hidden triggers on the kick and snare but that’s a lot of effort for the studio tech when she can go at it the next day and perfectly match the recording in one take. She’s just that good.
@BorisT. Re: mics, per her setup guy, Hiroshi... she is using 3 overhead mics, 1 condenser mic in front along with 2 overhead cameras, and 3 cameras floor level
The amount of force she projects defines the force in Newtons force/s. I was so anxious and swear that she was bout to turn into A super saiyan percussion goddess or sumfing.
This girl has more energy than a nuclear reactor. But I was more interested in your technique of playing on the table with a drumstick ... reminded me of those distant times when black metal bands recorded vocals in the bathroom, and drums on pots...good old times.
😂... You're free to not believe but when I was 17 I recorded my first black metal demos using books and pots. I think I still have those shitty songs somewhere
Here are a couple of songs from her old band, Girls Rock Band Kakumei (Revolution): Utopia: ua-cam.com/video/P88ZZ-VuXBs/v-deo.html&start_radio=1 Voltage: ua-cam.com/video/9k9txMouU34/v-deo.html She was pretty clearly the best musician in the band. She left the band early last year and has been working freelance since then.
She must seem cute to the average person but she is a total drum warrior. Junna must be protected at all costs. She definitely loves what she does. Second favorite next to Sarah thawer. \m/
You underestimate yourself. You are one of the best drummers too. Yes, she is good, young, and flamboyant, but they need to see some of your work. Grats
4:00 Actually the studio recording clip of Gee Anzalone (The Dragonforce Drummer) playing this song shows him with the same number of drums (4 + bass) and the only real difference is he has 1 extra cymbol (a mini hi-hat ... that's not used), and several of his cymbols are larger than hers. So Junna's kit is the SAME SIZE as the one used to RECORD the song.
The joy on this girl’s face is the most important thing. Having fun is what music is about.
The fact that she is having fun is probably why she is so damn good!
@@kendrawinchester3704 probably - and also the other way around. It is no fun practicing and not getting better.
i dont like metal or rcck but there is something to be said about how captivating the performance of such genres can bring you in.
The drummer from Dragonforce reacted to this video and said she's the best cover he heard of the song
can you give me link of that? I don't know how to find it
ua-cam.com/video/2M2Hv5GuSn4/v-deo.html there you go
He also looked like a prowd father while he was watching it
"exept of his one!" he said ( a joke)!
ua-cam.com/video/2M2Hv5GuSn4/v-deo.html here ya go
There isn't much that can be said about Junna, except that she is probably the most entertaining drummer of this generation, and is really, really good. She's is in her 20's now, but looks a bit younger.
Dragonforce's drummer watched this video and loved it.
Yeah, I saw that video. The smile never left his face.
Respect to you. I've watched a lot of reactions to her, but only one other drummer admitted that she is better than him. The Dragonforce drummer has reacted to this, and said that it was his favorite cover. Both that she did it so well and how much she enjoyed playing.
I like your response the most about this. A1 my Fran
Junna was a member of TRiDENT (formerly Girls Rock Band KAKUMEI ガールズロックバンド革命). You can see her drumming in their video "Voltage".
5:19 yep she's adding a little bit of her parts which every professional drummer they wish they could do...GOD LEVEL
Hands down the best drummer in ever heard junna you are amazing you are gonna go far in life great job once again freaking amazing
Beethoven famously said to make errors is human, but to play without passion is unforgivable.
Most of people are fooled by her looks, she's 24 and has been around for a long time now.
Is she was 23 in the video ?
@Luke Bremb she looks like 12 asians knows how to take care themselves
It she didn’t start drums until she was 15.
Craziness.
Imagine how much fun it would be to play a song with this lady. How could you not have the time of your life. The energy she brings to everything she plays is to large for life.
She hits her kit so hard! So much energy.
Could you imagine the havoc she would inflict on those drum heads if she was a 240 pound man?
No matter how good you are, there's always gonna be a tiny Asian girl who's better lol
Yes... 😎
Made me lol
Namen 🙏
Roses are red
Violets are blue
There's a Japanese girl
Who's better than you
Not only talented, but think they have a version good, dedicated work ethic. You don't get that good by osmosis.
you cant watch JUNNA and not smile !!! shes amazing
Кто её видел,будет смотреть и слушать всегда.Это DEMON,вихрь,ураган эмоций исполнения и красоты.!😀👍
She is 23 years old today and a lot younger when she made that video. Smile in the end and didnt even fucking break a sweat.
Her energy is infectious moreover she is a great drummer
I’ve watched this video more the a dozen times today you my friend are the only one who has the background to really appreciate this skill. Great reaction thank you from Australia

Ahhh...Junna. Come for the drumming, stay for her expressions. :)
Someone said in another vid that she had 3 overheads and one condenser mate. Great reaction and subbed btw!
I agree on two key points #1 it's a shame she has so few videos with such talent and #2 absolutely! Dragonforce needs to invite her as a guest when they do a show near her home town! And THAT will get her so many band opportunities and really kick off her drumming career!
JUNNA is the best

An over in the jazz/fusion world, there's Kanade Sato and one of the best drummers on the planet, Senri Kawaguchi.
the point is, when you say, she played better than me 👍👍😂🤣.
you are a big soul 👍👍🙏.🎸🥁🎹🎤
Junna is AWESOME !!!
Junna is GREAT. Absolutely. BUT................ HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!! HARUNA !!!
@@TheCyberMantis Yes, there is only one PRINCESS HARUNA !!!
Really enjoyed this review
She looks like a kid but she is an adult. Btw, amazing skills and energy!
I'd also love to see Junna guest with DragonForce! Would be absolutely amazing!
And it's possible..

Junna Rides an Epic *UNICORN of PERCUSSION!*
(Just Watch!😜)
You’re subs are growing so fast soon enough you’ll be sponsored by raid shadow legends.
Lol
Lol i was subbed at around 5k
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Right? I have no idea how that game is turning any kind of profit after what they've spent on advertising.
Hahahahaha
I love her energy.
Thanks for your reaction cuz I found a new black metal to listen to u rock
YOU need to check out princess HARUNA from the band LOVEBITES!
Super energy with this one. You notice she is about the same height standing as she is sitting down .. a super "pocket rocket"
If you like Junna, I think you will love Yoyoka. She is a 12 year old drummer and she have been a pro since she was 6. The video of her, that went viral was, her cover of "Good Times, Bad Times". When she was 8 years old. Then ther is her cover of "YYZ" , by Rush, when she was 11 and a few months ago she did a fantastic cover of "Burn" by Deep Purple. At 11 years old she was inducted on Drummers World Top 500 drummers...
Thanks for mentioning Yoyo, she's actually still 11, her birthday is near the end of the year.
@@glenkelley6799 Ok. Thank you for info....
I saw on drum teacher reacts she is using 3 overhead mics, 1 condenser mic in front, with 2 overhead cameras and 3 floor level cameras..
Best reaction I seen so far, kudos and good job!

I read the same thing, watching this to many times and watching reactions
Junna=game over
You having my follow for your thank you in the end :D instand love
Looking good there Boris! 😍 I love these reaction videos. 🤣Kits..kit, it means the same thing!😉
I think he meant the word KIDS.
@@kent-oveprestberg3578 Yes He did.. I just figured that out.🤣👍
@@SarahAParis. Better sooner than later😉😃👍🏻
Yup, if you aren't having fun, what's the point 😊
There's info' on-line about her mic' setup - IIRC, she uses 3.
She has pictures on Twitter of her kit fully mic’d with a least a dozen mics on stands that would get the sound we hear on her videos, but would look awful. I’m thinking they recorded and mixed the drums separately from the video.

She’s just that good.
She's basically a freelance drummer. She used to be a drummer for a Japanese rock band called Trident.
War - Meshuggah (Cover by 66Samus). It's so sick, dude.
OhhhYourrr
Damn, that sounds interesting.. Love that guy
OMG!
She recently joined Hagane, listen to Hero time or tengagoken, they are amazing.
I'd love to see you react to "When you're overqualified for the job. (AMAZING DRUMMER!)" video.
i hearded you say that she only had 17 videos...but lucky for you she plays in a band and they got videos aswell...
@BorisT. Re: mics, per her setup guy, Hiroshi... she is using 3 overhead mics, 1 condenser mic in front along with 2 overhead cameras, and 3 cameras floor level
She slays Led Zeppelin, she slays DragonForce. She just slays.
Junna has endorsements with Pearl drums, Sabian cymbals and Remo drum heads. Strung on her snare looks like Black Suede Snare.
She is in her 20s. She combines drums with cosplay
The amount of force she projects defines the force in Newtons force/s. I was so anxious and swear that she was bout to turn into A super saiyan percussion goddess or sumfing.
Herman Li asfalterebbe qualunque chitarrista black metal a occhi chiusi. Non c'è proprio paragone. È un alieno. Fenomeno
very much enjoyed your reaction.
She's a real show stealer for sure!
Wintersun's Rehearsal version of Sons Of Winter And Stars... do it.

@@borist. that's not a shitty song, that's a trve cvlte song in a name of Satan.

shes using 3 overhead mic + 1 condenser mic up front.

Utopia: ua-cam.com/video/P88ZZ-VuXBs/v-deo.html&start_radio=1
Voltage: ua-cam.com/video/9k9txMouU34/v-deo.html
She was pretty clearly the best musician in the band. She left the band early last year and has been working freelance since then.
Her energy is what metal has been missing.
@@Deadscheme lol. I'd rather not, but thank you anyway, you perfectly rational intellectual.
I saw a comment on another video where her setup guy said there are three overhead mics and one just out of frame in front of the kick.
i like ur drums mano! u r awesome talented phenomenonal! yet u r reacting to this as a true professiional u are amazing!
Br?
Junna is 24 turning 25 this winter.. Easter egg. keep your eyes on the sticker on the snare... 😉
Great job 🤘🏼
She must seem cute to the average person but she is a total drum warrior.
Junna must be protected at all costs.
She definitely loves what she does.
Second favorite next to Sarah thawer.
\m/
Go to her website to see how versatile playing classic and others - a big repertoir .. I watch Junna about 3 ~ 5 times a week
check out junna at her former band now named TRIDENT. song: voltage m.ua-cam.com/video/9k9txMouU34/v-deo.html
...and I doubt that she plays better than you. She's a great drummer though! WOW-EEEEEEE! You go girl! I love this song by the way.
Hey Boris! I'm Japanese and I found your comments quite nice!
Thank u! 😄
"She´s a crazy one" Yeeeeeeesssss!
Have you seen "George Kollias - shall rise shall be dead"? Awesome tumme and awesome drumvideo!
JUNNA and Akane Hirose of Bandmaid are what Fox holes are made for. You fall in and never come out. Rock on ladies!! 🦊🤘
🤘😈 INFERNAL HAILS BROTHER OF THE ABYSS 😈🤘May the frigid winds embrace your blackened soul and carry you to Valhalla 💀😈💀
You underestimate yourself. You are one of the best drummers too. Yes, she is good, young, and flamboyant, but they need to see some of your work. Grats
She is in a new band, I forget the name of the new band but her old band was Girls Rock Band Kakumei which is now know as TRiDENT after JUNNA left.
Junna is born 2000, she used to be in several bands. Also, the official Dragonforce drummer has a react video to her.
She is great isn't she. So fun to watch. Such a little sweet heart
bad day?,watch a Junna video!
@7:24 I also want to hear her play blast beats, reborn by as blood runs black or something like that
Love your reaction. It's nice to see female drummers. Can you react to
JUNNA!!! Great Reaction!
4:00 Actually the studio recording clip of Gee Anzalone (The Dragonforce Drummer) playing this song shows him with the same number of drums (4 + bass) and the only real difference is he has 1 extra cymbol (a mini hi-hat ... that's not used), and several of his cymbols are larger than hers. So Junna's kit is the SAME SIZE as the one used to RECORD the song.
Concerning the snare, it's a Pearl Steve Ferrone special ed. It made very clacky sound (:
