Welcome back, great reaction. 'Karate' was the lead single for their second album (2016). Absolutely right, you can enjoy the music, the sound of the vocals and the performance without understanding a word they say. However, if you are curious the song is about fighting adversity, when life knocks you down and everything seems too hard so you're hurt and crying, its about standing up and fighting on, helping each other through the hard times. They used karate to illustrate this because as a Japanese martial art it reflects their culture - that was a very important thing for them as well. As with a lot of their songs it is also about always moving forwards. The figures in white were the girls all along and they were conjuring up their own inner demons to fight against. They beat the first, the second knocked them down but they got up to eventually defeat themselves (did you notice the reflections of each of the girls in their own eyes when the masks shattered and it was revealed as them? Not many people spot that). They did watch a lot of martial arts movies to get ideas for the choreo as they wanted it to look as authentic as possible (but they are not martial artists). Moa catching the fly was a nod to Mr Miyagi in The Karate Kid. Mr Miyagi may have used chop sticks (and it may have taken him two or three films before he caught one), Moa caught her fly with her eyes closed - first time .... and she let it go. We all know Moa wouldn't hurt a fly. This song and video won 2 awards. "Best Metal Video in MTV Video Music Awards Japan 2016" and "Best Metal Song in 6th Annual Loudwire Music Awards". Keep the BABYMETAL reactions coming - each song is different to the last. Try 'Headbanger' live at the Legend 1997 concert - actually from December 2013 celebrating Su-meta;'s 16th birthday - she was born in 1997. You can find high quality videos for that performance that are safe to use for a reaction posted by either abr metal or Gans Tomas.

⚡ 💀 💕 / 👻 👻 👻 There's a good reason this was the featured single from the second album, 'Metal Resistance'. They made a lot of friends among Metal bands by playing a bunch of festivals, and this song converted quite a few. The choreography was a big hit as well. : ) As is usually the case, the riffs are even heavier live. Like a lot of BABYMETAL songs, this one has a positive message about facing life's challenges.

Hi from Ireland great to see you start on babymetal, everyone is correct live is epic, I am a big babymetal fan have most of their blueray. But really I suggest two from the 2023 pia arena, Monochrome live at pia, road of resistance live at pia. The try some of the 2024 legend mm, bxmxc, and headbanger. The reason for this is that I have seen reactors put of by some early less serious tracks like gimme chocolate and doki doki, although great, they can mislead until you see their more metal flavour which my the way covers nearly all their stuff, enjoy and I look forward to more 😊

If you get a chance, watch the live performance at Download 2016. They performed this song perfectly in the pouring UK rain. We generally recommend to watch Babymetal's live performance because they shine brightest performing in front of a live audience. However, there are a few songs where the music video is very much worth watching and Karate is one of them.

Headbanger (live at Legend 1997), Syncopation, Ijime Dame Zettai ( No More Bullying Forever), BMC, Monochrome, Megitsune, Yava, Akatsuki, Pa Pa Ya.... The list is very long. Just remember, live Babymetal is the best Babymetal 😎

Thanks for this reaction.I think the song was made with the Olympics in mind, so they could showcase what they could do for the Olympics and maybe perform this song at the Olympics in Japan in 2020 (which happened in 2021). Karate was a new sport to be introduced at the Japanese Olympics because of it's Japanese origin. It was planned to be introduced maybe before, but obviously if they Olympics are gonna be in Japan, might as well do it there, much more fitting.

_Ossu!_ 🦊🤘🥋 Welcome back to the Foxhole and thanks for coming back with this suggestion. Don't worry the Fox God is merciful and will forgive you, just remember that we're -NotACult- 👀 "Karate" is one of their stronger weapons along with "Road Of Resistance" from 2nd album "Metal Resistance" released in 2016. It's an uplifting song about keep fighting besides the obstacles no matter what, and just like you noticed when you take a closer look at the end you'll see in the eyes of their rivals that they're fighting against no other than themselves. Some fans also find anime vibes on BabyMetal songs, the only other song I could find with anime vibes besides this one and "Divine Attack - Shingeki", is "Syncopation" another banger. They watched several footage before making this song, one of those were "Karate Kid" old movie, that's why you see MoaMetal catching a bug, that's a reference to the movie, after this she became the bug catcher expert when traveling on live tour lol. The bats and the concrete blocks testing strength is another infamous Karate reference. Btw just in case, the band playing behind in this MV are hired actors, probably we said this many times before but they got their own set of musicians when performing live called Kami Band, they're not always the same musicians but currently this year they've been playing with a westerners band unlike early era after 2012 when they had a Japanese band. You can enjoy the live version with the blaster sound of the East Kami Band watching Download Festival 2016 among many others but this one is safe to react. They played this last month at the Europe Tour and some of them were at Rock Am Ring Festival in Germany as well at Graspop in Belgium and Pinkpop in Netherlands, and they did it like never before plus new super cool outfits or battle dresses, it was really beautiful and there are proshot clips around and so far the Pinkpop version is safe for a reaction, you can try if you want, trust me, it'll worth the effort. Also another cool version to watch and meet the new Metalverse subgroup is Karate live at PIA Arena MM 2023, they got their own songs but you can start with this introduction. I think you're ready for this next suggestion: - Babymetal Death live at Legend 1997 (2013) with the intro. Kitsune up and see you next time 🦊🤘🔥

Nice reaction. Babymetal has been waiting for you. In time folks find Babymetal when the time is right in their life. When covid was going on there were lots of comments about how Babymetal got them through some very dark times in their lives. This song actually has some cool lyrics. All about going forward even when your down and bleeding. get up and keep going. And like in the video you don't have to go it alone. Your friends can help you. The image of them picking each other up after getting knocked down. Babymetal often has a strong positive up lifting lyrics to their songs. A metal base with a Jpop top and whatever genre or genres in between with the Japanese vibe of Kawaii added in. How does it all work? Babymetal magic. On stage Babymetal is a force to be reconned with. Off stage they may only be around 5' tall but on stage they can be seen from space. Enjoy your journey through the foxhole and into the Babymetal galaxy of music. See You

Hey Charles and Eddie! Too bad you didn't hit "Gimmie Chocolate" first. Not as impactful for old babymetal fans but 100% more jaw-dropping performance for a first impression. The genre is "kawaii metal." Kawaii means "cute" in Japanese. Their performances/production are next level. They make KISS look like Dollar Store clearance items. Check out their official live videos. After Gimmie Chocolate, the "Road to Resistance" live in Japan is legendary. Instantly on the bucket list to see!

Nice one and welcome back to BABYMETAL. At this point, you only need to know a few things: they are very diverse musically since they like to mix any music genre with metal. And they are way better live for multiple reasons, but mainly because of their live band (Kami Band), Su-metal's live vocals, the choreo (different for each song), etc. So, I'd like to suggest you something earlier and something newer, both live versions and matching eras. The first is from a festival, 10 years ago, the second is from a recent arena-size solo show from earlier this year: "Ijime, Dame, Zettai" (Live at Sonisphere 2014): kzitem.info/news/bejne/s6VjxZeYn5ajjHo "Believing" (Live at Legend-MM from 2024): kzitem.info/news/bejne/uY2j2mSthYyie20 Until next time! 🤘🦊

Great and fun reaction :) So these girls were only I think 15 for the main vocalist (Su-Metal) and 13 for the two dancers (Moametal and Yuimetal, pronounced Moe-wah and You-wee). If you really do plan on following through with more Babymetal, it's always fun to watch reactors go from the beginning and work their way up to the newest stuff, however you don't have to do that. Doing that allows you to watch as they mature and grow however, and it's both interesting and fun to witness it. You'll get to see how they evolved into what they are today. Anyhow, great reaction and looking forward to more to come soon! :D

Babymetal is not a normal metal band and that is why there was a lot of hate at the beginning and some even still now. i have been a fan since 2013 and you have to see them live and have to go see them live even in a smaller venue. to be part of the crowd and to see them live is just so good. when they tour the shows are not like the big shows in Japan but they still give 110% in every show. any song you pick will be fine. to me Babymetal does not have filler songs so to me all their songs are good. some i might not like as much as others but i still like them. this song is all about fighting your inner demons and getting back up after being knocked down. most of their lyrics are so good and positive thinking. you will enjoy you r journey with Babymetal.
