i wanna see them with my dick

is that a pedophile convention?

>>11885053
I wish

If only. Best i could do was preorder their new CD.

Moa Kikuchi best babymetaru

Smell likes Hot Topic but with lolis.

>>11887492
Can you still order the limited edition version anywhere? It seems like Cdjapan won't do any more preorders, and I'd prefer the limited edition over the standard edition.

>>11887663
I don't think so, even Asmart is sold out of both limited editions
Best bet will be a reseller

>>11887375
>>11887492
Damn, was hoping to meet up with fellow anonym00s gaijin

i'll see them... on Youtube

>>11887711
That sucks. The cover of the standard edition looks like shit compared to the limited edition.

depends. is leda still on guitar?

>>11888682
Yes.

>>11887712
I'll hang out with you Anon if you want. I don't listen to Babymetal but I think they are cute.

Am I bad person for liking some of the music but having zero interest in the performers themselves?

>>11887514
Smells like a russian or a BR.

I can tell by your shitty grammar

>>11889411
Ad hominem harder, moron.

(yes, I'm using a noun as a verb before you unleash your autism)

>>11889397
If you think you need to like a bunch of underage girls to enjoy their music, you might have some issues.

Liking music != liking performers

I like メギツネ, and I think its video is really cute, but I don't really care for any of their other songs.

>>11889347
Where are you located? I'm going to be in Chiyoda

>>11888675
THIS. I wouldnt buy the special edition for the DVD since i dont own a multiregion DVD , Couldnt they come up with something better for the cover of the standar version?

>>11891273
You can watch out of region DVDs in your computer

>>11891297
that´s right, but anyway, the special ed is already sold out, so we are stuck with this cover wich sucks

>>11891273
are you not able to update the firmware on your dvd player?

I just discovered them and they're absolutely adorable, but I can't help thinking that deep inside they just hate metal music. That said, they can't really complain having made it big and their genre probably isn't the hardest thing to put up with in the idol business.

>>11887712
>>11889347

>>11897492
> deep inside they just hate metal music

most nippon people under 20 love metal music, mainly because they arent put off with the satanic imagery, which is why people in occident dismisses metal music. Of course, i very highly doubt they are into Darkthrone or Burzum, they strike me more as metallica/ slayer fans

>>11900674
Oddly enough, Japan also has a pretty exciting hardcore punk/trash scene.

>>11900674

>>11885053
>Budokan

What the hell is Budokan, other than a fictional martial arts tournament from the videogame with the same name?

>>11900706
It was a good choice posing with Hammett, they don't seem too small compared to him.

>>11900674
Even as someone loving Metal, I understand anyone not liking Burzum.

Guitar Wolf?

>>11900774
The story of Mr. Vikernes is still interesting through, the music is mostly trash.

>>11900700
True.

>>11900780
I can agree with that. He also grew up to have a nice beard.

I gotta wonder though, that one song of Baby Metal that revolves around how bullying is bad and all, with the Gangster-folks messing with that white guy made me wonder how established the metal scene is in japan and if they view "metalheads" as easily bullied weaklings.

>>11900674
It's interesting how metal is alive in Japan when you just have to swim several miles to Korea where Rock is still relegated to underground status. Do they even have their own version of Budokan in Seoul?

>>11900751

>>11899775
Ah, well I don't know how we'd meet up but I'm sure it would be fun! I'm staying 10 minutes walking distance from the budokan.

>>11908029
Its a common tactic to assign blame of a thing you don't like to a single person.

I call it "Hitlering"

>>11908031
That's clever.

I really like this metal.

Filthy casual here. Can anyone tell me what "megitsune" means? I've scoured all the resources available to me and nothing can tell me what women are as opposed to foxes.

How is this /jp/ related?

>>11908940
きつね (kitsune) is a fox
I assume megitsune is some kind of combination of words that means female and fox.

>>11908940
are you talking about what the song means or the origins of the word.

>>11908967
The word.

>>11908963
It seems weird that the song would repeatedly assert "we are not foxes, we are not foxes, we are female foxes."

>>11908985
Mitsune is female fox, so it doesn't literally mean female fox; but it is something close to that. Maybe its a more descriptive version of female fox, like young female fox.

>>11908964
what do you think /jp/ is?

>>11908985
>The Japanese folklore tells that foxes can change into anything and deceive men. So a man who was deceived by a (charming) woman, feels like deceived by a vixen, and calls her "megitsune", that is, he says like "She is as cunning as a vixen".
>But man very easily misunderstands the behavior of a charming woman and gets into a sweet illusion that she love him, and, when he is disillusioned, he feels like deceived by her. But she is not to blame because she had no intention to deceive but is just too much charming.
>I think that the lines "We're not foxes ... but maiden-like female foxes." says like
"We're not deceiving but we're so charming that you may get into a sweet illusion."
>and so translated. "Maiden-like" is important to show not having ill intentions.

Japanator: What heavy metal bands are your favorites? Do you like any pop music artists?

BABYMETAL: We didn't know much about heavy metal bands, but our teacher recommended "CANNIBAL CORPSE." We couldn't sleep because we got scared after watching their PV. You shouldn't watch those alone!

>>11912438
>SU-METAL→ARCH ENEMY
oh shit nigger SU-METAL is now my homegirl

>>11916555
The band that accompanies Babymetal on some of their performances seems to be called メタルの神バンド/Metal Gods Band by news websites, or simply 神バンド by the fans. Googling the name gave me http://trend1.jp/babymetal-kamiband-member-414 , which says the drummer is 青山英樹. Also here's a live nico stream of BOH the bassist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDKVZC1bckw .

Shitty manufactured pop group who can't even play instruments or sing.

>>11900706

So fucking awkward. Poor guy.

>>11918419
Su sings live now
Go ahead, eat your shit words

>>11918442
She's always sung live since forever.

>>11918452
>>11918442
It's called voice over.
Retard.

>>11900706

They should pose with this guy... I'm positive that would result in some hilarious shenanigans. Those poor girls would be scarred for life.

>>11918419
>can't even play instruments or sing

most american "metal/hard rock" groups cant sing for shit. Hows that for a butthurt faggot?

>>11918467
No, not it's not.
You need to do yourself a favor and look up the meaning of voice over.
They lip synced for the first two years or so during performances.
Su has been singing live now and they've pretty muched dropped the backing track with her vocals now.
The other two just lip sync outside of shouts to the crowd.

Su does a great job for the most part but still has some things she needs to iron out, most notably in their appearance on Music Station this year.
The sound engineer dropped the volume of the prerecorded backing track (band, yui, and moa vocals) and had Su's vocals way too loud and upfront and she was struggling.
Must have been nervous.

>>11918384
Awesome, thanks anon!

Is there any chance they will ever come to the US?

>>11921240
Ok cool, he's getting some then.

I wish I was in Japan so badly now.

New cd will drop soon?

>>11923103
Their first full album is out today.

I don't know how influential/popular BARKS is, but pic related. Also this is only on the English website.

>>11923204
solid album.
needs more tracks.
should have included the kiba of akiba cover.

>>11924506
they should have re-recorded Iine! and Doki-Doki Morning. They sounded like Alvin & the chipmunks in the first, and the latter sounds like something out of Doraemon

>>11924506
Is it worth paying $40 for the limited edition?

>>11925325
That´s so goddamn expensive. Too bad the regular edition cover is so lame, that´s my complaint

I think they should've put the Vega mix ver from Sakura Gakuin's 2011 album in this album instead, it has a more metal feel to it.

You can see which live they participated in on the next section. There are also two more backing band called BABYBONE(guy in skeleton suits) and キツネ楽団(guy with fox masks) which are made up of staff members.

watching the dvd and i kinda wish i was one of the skull guys. i wonder if they'd have a better shot to get with one of them.

Rolling Stone Japan gave the new album 4.5 stars and said “Without a doubt, this is a masterpiece that will become one of the representative albums of 2014.”

Does anyone actually take RS seriously in terms of music reviews?

>>11930313
No. Music journalism is pretty shit. Just look at the grammys.

>>11930345
well, the grammys are a joke nowadays. But yeah, RS never had credibility to begin with. Wonder if music journalism in japan is better than in europe/america though

Be careful there /jp/. Snow's predicted for the second day.

No, because I'm an adult and metal is for teenagers.

I was going to make a joke about Yui headbanging too hard during ヘドバンギャー, but then read that she was limping during IDZ, and now feel really bad. ゆいちゃん顔笑れ

>>11934201
Both Yui and Moa hurt themselves during staurday's show, but they pulled through
The set was awesome and I couldn't even tell they were hurt.
I did notice Su being off in her timing a few times but outside of that, solid

Btw, first concert in Japan and the energy and politeness of the crowd was awesome.

>>11937163
>Babymetal breaking up
Has this started to become a running joke?

>>11937184
I guess, everyone was anxious when they pulled the "say goodbye" text since they had just done a recap of all of their past performances on the screen and reminded the crowd that they had formed back in 2010
hell, before they entered their coffins, they came out in special ceremonial garb and each member was introduced by name and function (Moa: scream, dance, etc.) before they went inside so it seemed like a final goodbye

They have new female dancers now too during onedari daisakusen

>>11937092
They announced it at the end of today's concert.
http://www..ベビーメタル.com/babymetal/37427443.html
No details though. Even the timer on their official website just show random numbers.
http://www.babymetal.jp/

Note that they had been to multiple concerts in Taiwan, Singapore and Indonesia already, so it's not like they haven't went out of the country before, but still, Europe's would be the first western country they go to. Also you have to remember that they're still students, and Yuimoa is still with Sakura Gakuin.

Possibly offtopic, but I wonder if this would affect their activity within Sakura Gakuin. The 中等部3年 members will be graduating at the end of this month, which means Yuimoa along with Taguchi Hana and Notsu Yunano will be the next leaders of the group. The original lineup of the group will disappear once the 中等部3年 members leave, though most consider Yuimoa to be with the first generation since both joined before the group's debut single. The fans might want Yuimoa to be with Sakura Gakuin more since they're the last of the first generation, and will graduate from the group next year.

That looks awesome, but where is the band? I think I would rather see them in a 'traditional' concert setting.

>>11938904
You can see the band behind them in the video, they are not wearing the skeleton suits though.

More like what they wore in the Megitsune video

>>11937173
They say good-bye at the end of every concert.

I understand "It's time to say good-bye" sounds very heartfelt but that doesn't implying they're are breaking up.

>walked into their coffins and ascended into the sky
then "JAPAN" appeared underneath

If anything that implies they are going to tour abroad.

I just couldn't see them breaking up after their FIRST album has sold tremendously well.

( •᷄ὤ•᷅)？

Just listened to one of their songs
Really interesting take on idols

>>11938904

The band is in the back, they were playing live

>>11938945
see
>>11937198

Yes, they say goodbye at the end of every concert but this was a long drawn out event after the encore (they say the regular "see you" before the encore). Everyone was holding their breath since it eas so elaborate and the language used had everyone thinking that it was indeed their final show.

i'm really not liking the wubstep and hippityhop parts. they really just need to bring in syu and it would be perfection.

>>11939028
i find them to be nice breaks from the the metal. Listening to the cd twice on a loop and it wasn't the best part but it was a nice breather.

Really liking the way Give me Choco!! sounds but the lyrics are just terrible. Whoever wrote this is a master for writing addictive songs but the song has no meaning besides being "fun".

>>11939091
>the song has no meaning besides being "fun"
apparently that -is- the meaning. kinda like some shonen knife songs.

just watched the vid. first baby metal song i actually liked.

>>11939091
those are lyrics for middle schoolers, not grown ups

>>11939091
Chatmochy´s Thermae roman is about taking a bath. You´re analizing too much

>>11939091
>MOSH'SH

they should have recorded "Tsubasa wo kudasai". The version they play live sounds close to the Evangelion one, but it would have been an interesting addition to the set, having a ballad maybe at the end of the album.
Also i love the newest single song by Suzuka. Her voice sounds incredible, its hard to believe is the same one who sings Iine!

>>11939218
"Mosshusshu" = moshing + "sshu". Moshing is the state of the crowd pushing hard each other in the heavy metal live, etc. +"sshu" perhaps suggests something like "with a light feeling". Recently BABYMETAL officials used "mosh'sh" for "mosshusshu" (BABYMETAL said it is "safe moshing").

>>11939052

I thought I wouldn't be able to get their autograph because I missed the first 100 concert tickets but the organiser changed to first 100 people with concert tickets to show up there and I got saved.

>>11939203
>analizing
Heh. Though I can't deny the use of that word, either.

So I ignored this shit when it was posted in /jp/ but then I saw a link to Megitsune somewhere else and was hooked. It's some weird-ass combination of the traditional and the modern.

Time to check out the rest of their shit.

>>11887712

>>11939504
As opposed to the unsafe moshing at Comiket.
I've never been in a mosh pit as violent as the crowd there.
Were any of you niggas at the one on December 31st? Did you see when that one artist in the center aisle got their cash box knocked over and people picked up the money AND WALKED AWAY WITH IT?

Not surprised they'd choose to go to Europe rather than the US, just hoping the Kyary Pamyu Pamyu tour does well so japan sees they have fans over here too.

>>11939732
It turned out that I couldn't even pretend to take most of their shit seriously, so it'll probably just be a novelty for me.

Su-metal's voice seems to be sounding lower and lower pitched as I hear her.

I read somewhere that constant screaming will cause your voice to become lower pitched. Could that be the reason?

>>11940461
>constant screaming will cause your voice to become lower pitched
P-Please no.
It could be because she's still a growing girl. Also she just did two concerts in two days, just let her rest for a bit.

W-what?

>>11940583
That's what true rock/metal stars do.

>>11940482
Something to do with lumps forming in the throat or something.

I'm cool with what she does as long as she doesn't overdo it, which I hope she won't.

What's more likely:
Baby plays at a venue in NYC
or Baby plays at a dumb US anime con?

>>11940461
She doesn't really scream, she has like two very short screaming parts in the set list/entire song catalog
Her voice sounds lower because her vocal chords are maturing
And frankly, she sounds a lot better

When I started to watch their live performances, I was completely hypnotized.
What a great project!

>>11942800
She seems to be fine.
Pic related, she fell into the outer area where the pyro guns are located. For the second day they placed railings on the outer perimeter of the stage too, instead of just the inner.

Anon pls.

>>11942857
Nothing serious, she was back on the stage less than 5 minutes later and finished the show.
She performed the next day for their second show at the Budokan.

I looked back a few pages and found AKB48 doing the fox sign at Babymetal's Music Station performance.

How did I miss this one.

When I hear that, i imagine them taking drugs and having orgies with slutty fans, but western idea does not translate into the context of idol metal, or at least I would not expect that, so I am confused.

BabyMetal rule the world!

No. Looking at any female adolescent is illegal.

I don't understand the "They don't even play instruments" thing. They're a band. Do you know how many bands have singers that don't play instruments? Lots of them. Like, a whole damn lot of them. As a matter of fact, most bands with

>>11946791
they know how to play recorders

I listened to their album.
It's stupid. Like, really stupid and ridiculous.
I liked it. Would go to live.

>>11946897
I don't know why you would say it's stupid and ridiculous. It's objectively solid music that's getting accolades not just in the Japanese pop music circles but in legitimate metal fandom as well.

The album is fucking remarkable. It's whimsical, sure. I mean, blending eurodisco & metal is a silly concept but the result was more than the sum of its parts.

>>11946807
Moa's been playing the guitar for years even before Babymetal.

>>11946953
>implying it can't be both
There's a reason he liked it despite it being stupid and ridiculous.

Not for me atlest.

I'm not surprised here.

Because Sakura Gakuin was on Mujack. Moa got to touch Takamina's butt.

I can't read Japanese, what does it say?

Are there Moametal x Yuimetal doujin?

>>11959677
最 = most, 愛 = love, 最愛(Moa) = most loved. Her self-introduction plays on this:
最も愛を大切に！
Cherish love(Moa) the most!

>>11956525
Eh, their album is pretty incoherent. It really feels very gimmicky.

>>11959615
Does she intend to slut it up to seduce your father, as advocated by Babymetal?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StOr6wG5_-w

>>11959786
Wow, that is a most adorable name.

>>11959677
Her name means "most loved" or "most beloved" or something along those lines. Google Translate says "beloved".

Is it just me or does the DVD on the album have subpar quality?

>>11959794
it's not about slutting up you incoherent jew fuck

>>11960043
You got me interested in the possibility of them existing too. Was about to ask if it'd be a yuri doujin but decided against it.

>>11960049
Well, so far the options are gentle yuri between the two, SM yuri dominated by Su-Metal or the two doing enjo kousai. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StOr6wG5_-w

>>11960055
I'm in.

Babymetal is suddenly so much more popular now. Oh well, it's good for them, even if it makes me feel less special for being a hipster.

>>11960898
You were in this thread before they were popular

What part of this girls is considered "metal"?

>>11960965
Moa.

>>11960938
damn, we all /mu/ hipster now!

>>11960988
Why is Moa so popular compared to Yui?

>>11960965
The riffs. The fact that they encompass what metal did when it first started out. Not sure how exactly how it was phrased, but it was something along the lines of defying the norms.

>>11961559
Damn, really? I feel sad for Yui now.

>>11961559
Are you sure? I thought Yui's pretty cute too.

>>11961628
Yui is pure sex, Moa is pure cuteness, but I want to fuck Su.

>>11961704
>fuck, sex
they're just kids, bro

>>11961719
Don't have problem with it.

>>11961719
The age of consent in some countries allows it.
Emphasis on "consent", so it's not like it's relevant for any of you virgins.

You guys are starting to sound like /b/

>>11961559
Don't know if they're any different popularity-wise, but Moa has great expressions and is very energetic, while Yui is calmer. Moa also loves doing weird faces.

>>11961798
I'm sorry.

Thanks anon, I'll check there. I only looked on their .net fan site

>>11962797
I have to wait a few days to get verified by tensu. That shits lame

>>11961559
She's cute.

>>11961559
>Why is Moa so popular compared to Yui?
who says so? The Megitsune dvd edition with the Yui cover sould out faster than Moa´s. Maybe Yui is more popular with japanese otaku while in Europe/America is Moa the one. Mind you, Yui looks more loli than Moa

>>11962957
Really? Are you in the States? I was able to get verified instantly.
Anywho, Asmart is always your best bet outside of concerts for originally priced band/group goods, and they also have an awesome selection of Perfume stuff since it's run by their talent agency.

So, who is the best babymetal?

This, her voice carries the whole thing. She's more talented than all of AKB's 2 million members put together.

>>11963828
Get real, she sings live and is not bad, but that's it.

>>11963898
GTFO, u obvi have never seen her live to exp the wonders of her voice

>>11964066
Is that ironic shitposting?

>>11963828
I'm pretty sure there're talented girls in AKB48 too.

That said, Suzuka is really talented herself.

>>11964162
She is not talented in the looks department and her band is very gimmicky, which is not to say I dislike their music, but their artificiality is a serious threat to their live expectancy and the quality of their music. "Babymetal" is not so much an album as it is a collection of songs.

Seriously, this is the biggest crap even for Japanese standards. Non-catchy, hectic mess music. No skimpy/cute outfits. Annoying voices which are further obscured by synth/vocoder bullshit.

I just don't see the appeal to it. cause I can't fap to it

>>11967396
You sound retarded.

This thread is 11 posts over the bump limit and on page 7 now, by the way.

>>11967465
dont feed the trolls bro

They were featured on the epic reddit pandering Comedy Central show @midnight the other day.

So there will probably be a large influx of posts about them.

Last night I fapped to them. They were futas and had black overknees on them. Moa and Yui were sitting on bed and sucked Su's dick, first Moa while Yui jerked her off, then other way around. Su cummed twice into their mouths. The see knelt before them and sucked them off. It was hot as hell.

I'm gonna do that tonight again.

While I disapprove of you sexualizing the idols, I respect your freedom to pleasure yourself within any fantasy you construct in your mind. Perhaps this image will be useful for your endeavors.

>>11960898

The one thing I don't like about this is that it may start to increase the popularity of other things like jpop and idol groups in the US. I don't want to be *that guy*; but if this gains a lot of popularity, it could become similar to the current situation in the US comic book market. Prices for limited edition US comics have risen since the rise in popularity (not that they weren't already expensive), and issues are sold out to people who aren't truly fans/collectors.

Obviously, it's stupid to say you don't want something you like to be successful; but I don't want others to run my hobby.

I guess I'm just another stupid fanboy though...
