Hell yes! She really speak her mind. At the London show, Islington 2019, there was an obnoxious american fan, with a little teddy bear in hand, bothering other fans. Until Saiki told him to pipe it down. Let's say it was a fearsome (and spectacular) sight.
That guy I remember, we at front told him to stop. Also me and probably a few others were not far away of knocking him down. But realizing he was drunk I guess we couldn't do it and left him in his own shame. I bet after the gig he would gotten a piececof mind on the way out. I hope he will never show up again. What an idiot that was to ruin a good evening.

Just like a little pigeon we know!

@@GaryHolloway-810 Showed up in my notifications but now it's hidden there, too. Was like "like our pigeon" or summat. Hopefully it will turn up eventually cos I'm probably quoting badly.
@@GaryHolloway-810 My reply is hidden? I can see it. I replied "Just like a little pigeon we know"
Man,this was great. I will definitely watch all the episodes.I only discovered Band Maid a year ago, have now bought all the CD's I could get my hands on (2 EP's are missing), and started playing the guitar again after 20 years because of this beautiful music. And it feels so good.
This band has magic.
Thanks Ohrenje,Thanks Band Maid🥰🤩
Same. Keep trying on the EP's - i got most of them through Amazon. The EP's are worth it. Many hidden gems.
Well said indeed.

Even if you're far away,
My heart will always be with you.
even at great distances
I'm so worried because I can't see tomorrow.
I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING...
All I can do is pray from the bottom of my heart.
Request "peaceful daily life"
change little by little from day to day
this vast world
But we live.
It's okay. I am here.
You're not alone.
May the Band Maid's Force be with you ❗️
I pray for your safety💌

As an avid interview reader, I didn't learned a thing ... but yet I really enjoyed this great narrative - I was like a kid listening to his father telling him the same story he already heard ten times, before going to sleep. And it will be incredibly usefull for new or recent fans! Your informations about her surgery are correct, but let me add a small medical clarification: Saiki's surgery didn't made her voice better - it only brought it back to normal. All the following improvements are the result of her work (alone and with her coach), dedication and experience.
Same
凄く聞き取りやすい英語で日本人の僕でも何とか内容が分かりました！
映像も内容も素晴らしくてまるでテレビのドキュメンタリー番組のように質が高くてめちゃくちゃ楽しめました
ありがとう！
優しい言葉をありがとう。 私の発音が苦痛ではなかったといいのですが
Not painful at all! On the contrary, the pronunciation was easy to understand, even for me, a Japanese who is not very good at listening to English!
I look forward to more in this series. Thank you K Michaels-san!
@@unclespooky I, from Hungary, really enjoyed your voice :)
@@zolitoth2458 köszönöm. Remélem tetszeni fog a sorozat többi része.
@@unclespooky I'm sure about that!
Only been a Maidiac for 8 months but Saiki is becoming my favorite Maid. good job on the video
One thing that occurred to me (but I've never heard any of them mention it) - Saiki is the youngest, and she hired into a band with some really excellent musicians. If it had been me, I would have been intimidated by Akane, Misa, and Kanami and felt like I was not really in their league. The experience with her surgery might have made her feel like she actually *IS* integral to the band, and the past few years have made her feel like Band-Maid is *her* band and not just the band she sings for. There is an interview with Saiki and Kobato on VanityMix on August 11, 2022 where Saiki says "We released a video on the 'Day of Maid', this May, where we played together in the studio for the first time in a while, and I thought I hadn’t heard this loud sound for a long time (laughs). After that, we started rehearsing there more and more, and I was like “I love being in the band!”
Very few bands and groups out there have a fanbase as dedicated to put out content this good. To all those that worked on this, thank you for everything you've done so far and every future episode of this documentary.
It is a common practice among the Japanese. The material is clearly made with the permission of the "company", but the material is still very suitable.
Thx so much Ohrenje & Kasper. I'm sure Maidiacs old & new alike will all learn something new from this awesome series. Where's your B-M tear towel when you need it.🥲
I think I'll need something the size of a beach towel to make it through this series GH 😭😃👍🍻
@@brunobryant4846 Haha. It's understandable Bruno. Them damn onion ninjas strike when you least expect it.🥷
my pleasure
We love Sai-chan, the band are all so humble, talented and hardworking. I'm very happy to be a Maidiac 🤘
That was a beautiful tribute to our Ice Queen. Thank you once again Ohrenje, Kasper and all involved. I'm really looking forward to who is next!
it was definitely my pleasure
字幕ありがとうございます
😆👍🤗🎉😭🙌🥹🙏🥲💦
ご視聴ありがとうございました。
貴重な映像と ていねいな解説をありがとうございます。
great job and thanks for mentioning saiki one of a greatest vocalist today
A great insight for those that are not aware of a greatness vocalist Saiki Atsumi
In a group of women striking for very different reasons, Saiki is outstanding for her beauty, elegance but above all stage prescence. She has that precious natural gift for dominating the stage merely by being there. Having the audience in her hands from that moment her superb voice and vocal interpretation lead the band to stupendous performances full of delight and emotion. I think Band Maid might have made it without Saiki. but it's doubtful. With her they are undoubtably the finest band in the world. A fine documentary sir. Thank you.
That was awesome.
Saiki has truly grown as a singer and I’m sure she will continue to do so. Her voice is so rich. I hope she is still doing live shows when she’s in her 70s like one of my other favorite Japanese singers, Mieku Kaji.
Of course I will have to live to be 110 to hear her then, but it’s important to have goals.
Much thanks Ohrenje.
Thank God she chose to sing with Band-Maid, Saiki is a great singer who brings a lot to Band-Maid. She is now one of the best singers IMHO. Saiki has gained a lot of confidence and are very outspoken, specially after the Radio shows she did together with Miku. I listened to all of their Radio shows, very funny to listen to the two of them having a great time together. I fall in love with Saiki a little every time she laugh and smile. Thank you for the documentary 🙂
This was amazing. Thank you Ohrenje and everyone who contributed. I didn’t cry… much.
From Japan, thank you for the story of Saiki.
Their nine-year story is never flat, but dramatic. Their earnestness and appreciation for music is to be admired. Moreover, it continues to develop. It can be said that it is a role model for women and young people. I hope they conquered the world and it will be adapted into dramas or movies in the future. ★ I would like a BREAKIN' NEW GATE shirt.
Agreed! I would buy one in a heartbeat, that is a great logo.....
The gate they need to break is US and EU charts. Tjeyvhave to be on the radio on both continents. However, for now none want to. It's the language that for now is the problem. Though they fit.
@@franshendrix1404 As a Japanese, I am happy that they value Japanese. It leads to cherishing the heart of Japan. The lyrics have emotions and Japanese culture that can only be expressed in Japanese. I feel that having all the lyrics in English is not a true world domination. It is also interesting that the lyrics of the two existing English songs were not written by them.
@@franshendrix1404 I disagree with the language being a problem. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't babymetal sing in Japanese. They had the advantage of being a support act for Lady GaGa. Maybe Band-Maid need something similar ie a big name to get them exposed to the widest possible audience. Also BTS had hits in the states singing in Korean.
@@toshimatyu6654 I know the one produced by Tony Visconti. But what is the other one?
素晴らしいドキュメンタリーとなっていて感動しました😄
全メンバーも見たくなります👍
ありがとうございました。
私は最近BAND-MAIDを知りファンになりました。素晴らしい動画をありがとうございます。
ファンコミュニティへようこそ。
応援ありがとうございます。
Many elements in Band Maid separate them from the other Japanese bands, but one big one is Saiki's voice. I don't need to speak Japanese to listen to her sing. She is brilliant. Her vocals during the acoustic sections of their shows is awesome. Puzzle from Zepp Tokyo...etc. Thank you for doing this...
彼女たちが同じ時代に居てくれて本当に有難うといいたい。
I adore them and their Music so much!!!!! I could never say enough good things about them. They literally put me in a Happy focused trance when I ride my BMX bike.
Wow! Thank you very much for this amazing video!
I'm so excited! So much information! So much interesting information! I didn't know...everything from the video! That was amazing.
And all this little rare video from the first performances are so cute.
I didn't know about surgery... I was trying not to cry at the end of the video, but...
Thank you again for this amazing video. Now I'm waiting for the part 2. BAND-MAID forever!
Very well done. I too put this band to the side for years because of the image. Finally took the chance through the pandemic to listen to their music and never turned back. Although I enjoy every member of the band Saiki will always be my favorite. It's crazy how she just sort of became the face of the band with her attitude and presence. This series is amazing and should be viewed by all.
I hope Saiki knows that as far as we are concerned, Saiki is a rock legend right up there with The Beatles, Van Halen, Joan Jett, David Bowie, Madonna, Smashing Pumpkins, Cyndi Lauper😀⛩️
It was a beautiful video, great job!
Even if you know a lot about Band-Maid and Saiki, it always touching hear their story and how this awesome band came together. Saiki has growing a lot not only as a singer but also as a PR, creating a golden comedy duo with the almighty pigeon
素晴らしい作品をありがとうございます！
10周年を目前にしてBAND-MAIDとそのファンに向けての最高のプレゼントの一つに違いありません。
そして、こうしてBNAD-MAIDは世界中から素晴らしい人格の音楽ファンを集めます。
かつて、こんなバンドが存在したでしょうか？
彩ちゃんの声が無ければ、これほどBAND-MAIDに夢中になっていなかったのは間違いありません。
素晴らしい彩ちゃん。
ご視聴ありがとうございました。
Thank you!! The script, the editing, and the professional narration are (once again) top-shelf. Saiki, though: what a fighter, and what a voice! She has such a mesmerizing vocal style and incredible stage presence.
What a great tribute to Saiki!
This is something Saiki would be proud of ❤️
I hope she sees it
@@normanweaver7935 same here. I hope they see alot of fan posted stuff. we love them all so much
So well done. March 3, 2019 is the day I discovered the most beautiful and amazing band on the planet. It was around 3pm. Now I get to see them live Oct. 19th here in Phoenix AZ. I am over the moon!!!!!
And a heartfelt thank you to the mystery surgeon who helped with Saiki's voice. I daresay that kind of surgery isn't high on the list of complex tasks for surgeons (all things considered) but there must still be an inherent risk, however small. A true unsung hero and they should be mighty proud of their work.
Great vid and, as ever, forever, love and thanks to the one and only, almighty, inimitable Band-Maid.
I love her vocal technique. Sometimes it looks like she doesn't even breathe
Great job, can't wait to see the next one.
She's a beautiful young lady with a wonderful voice and has only gotten better with time. I hope that Band Maid will continue on together for many more years.
Great job! Thank you very much, Ohrenje-San and Mr. Michaels. Looking forward for the next episode.
thank you for the kind words. And I'm looking forward to your next cover
@@unclespooky thank you! I will cover a new song until the end of September.
Awesome segment on the development of Saik's vocals. This is so well done and I'm looking forward to the next!
I dont speak Japanese but only a week after listening to my first band maid song, i had brought all of their albums. My love for these ladies grew from there.
Beautiful! Just beautiful! And that goes for our queen Saiki as well as for this great portrait about her. ✨💞
Once again a project that underlines that not only these outstanding musicians, but also their fan community, is something very, very special!
Thanks to all involved, and especially Kasper Michaels for lending his great voice to this project. Very charismatic and with the pinch of humor, it is also not too overly serious. I like that very much.🙏🏻

「 _'Our rock never dies ever. Forever!'_ 」 --- from *BAND-MAID* 'Manners' 🕊
Thank you. I love the ladies, but but their very nature, levity is a must. what makes them so popular is they don't take themselves seriously. Look at all the funny faces. but if there was anything they do take seriously, I think it's the fans.
Watching this on Saiki's 2023 birthday right after seeing your birthday tribute. When I heard all those people from around the world wishing her 'Happy Birthday', I cried tears of joy! Saiki IS the voice of Band Maid! Her voice is made of silk and gold!
I’ve always been a fan of Saiki from the start first time I heard about BAND-MAID some people took them awhile to contact with her singing not me I contacted right away she is a power house singer for sure love BAND-MAID I listen to them 24/7 now I react to their music on my channel I even bought bass guitar cause of Misa (: these ladies are the best in the world (: well done for tribute Saiki she deserves so much more (: they all do!
I remember an interview (now taken off from YT) that She and Miku would constantly argue but never settle the argument, both feeling satisfied after they spoke their minds. So although they constantly clashed, they both had no grudge against each other.
So, not much that i wasnt already aware of. But man i was so-oo-oo impressed by Kasper and Ohrenje's production!!
Thanks - and kudos - to all involved
thank you. hope you enjoy the rest of them
If it was Saiki's episode that made me cry with such detail, I would cry if it was Kobato's episode.
Kobato-san's path to the present day is epic.
Looking forward to your next episode.
That would be an epic story worthy of a biopic! She ruled them all, she did find them, she did bring them all, and in the darkness... oh wait, different story.
すごい❗️日本語の字幕も完璧です👍初めて完璧な日本語字幕付き動画を見た気がします。
ありがとうございました😆✨
Amazing❗️The Japanese subtitles are perfect👍I feel like I've seen a video with perfect Japanese subtitles for the first time. Thank you😆✨
Thank you for your support ! A fellow Japanese Maidiac helped me for the subtitles.
全く同感です。こちらの日本語訳💯に比べるとグーグル先生もまだ幼稚園児🔰だっぽ。小鳩嬢も「凄い」って感心してるっぽ。他の字幕もきっと其々の言語のメディアックが担当してるんでしょうね👏
真の「世界征服」は言語->文化と進行するようです。芯の強い小鳩嬢の拘りで「瓢箪から出た駒」(Pieces from gourds?) が実現しつつあるのをBMUSTOURを観て感じています。
tamayura-san, You can say that again!👏
とても良い構成で、いつもは無口な彩姫のエピソード、、、
ありがとうございます。🤗🤗🤗
素晴らしいドキュメンタリーありがとうございます。
当然 to be continued ですよね？
あと4人も楽しみに待っています🤗
もちろん、もっとたくさんありますよ。ご視聴ありがとうございました。
ありがとう、ありがとう！！
心から感謝します。
ボーカリストの座を譲ってまでsaikiさんを迎え入れた小鳩さんの覚悟と確信に敬意を表します😊また、あるラジオでsaikiさんが小鳩さんに「感謝！感謝！」と恥ずかしそうに言っていたのがとても印象的でした☝️
素敵な動画をありがとう🤗
Thanks to all; this was really, really good!
Oh man thanks for this! It was wonderful. What an amazing journey for Saiki. And man that speech always gets me 🥹. 🤘🏻
To quote back - "Thank you and well done" 🤗 Simply marvellous, thank you so much to those involved in this incredible piece of work, can't wait to see the rest and how I would love to be present to see the Maids faces when they watch this, Viva the Maids peace and love Po 👍🎼🥁🎤🎸🍻
You had me tearing up at the surgery part :( Poor girl must have been so scared.
simply excellent! Looking forward to the rest of the story!! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
your voice is very charming😊
you are the best storyteller😮
ありがとう、でも私はまだ熟練していません。😉
Now she's even writing songs. Hate? is amazing. I can't get enough of this band.
Thx, appreciate Saiki evermore along the way, like icing on the cake
Thank goodness she was able persevere through the voice troubles! I liked Band Maid a lot before getting to see them live, after that they catapulted to number one. I hope that I am able to go see them again someday, Saiki's beautiful voice is even better in person.
That was beautiful.......🥰....The ladies can do no wrong...certainly for me....But I will admit..I don't recall the first time I ever listened to them...sorry....I have been suffering depression through ill health and losing my partner to cancer...and so my head has never been the same since...It has been dark times for me..And so I now find it hard to recall things I took for granted before...But I feel my first time may have been (wouldn't say 100%) hearing and seeing the "Real Exsistance" MV...But when I don't recall...As it is a track I have loved for as long as I can recall being a fan...Yes the LIVE is AWESOME!..of course..But I do so love the MV as well....so maybe it was first thing I heard by them...I just don't know...But we know the first song you hear by the ladies can become your favourite because of how you recall you felt when you first heard it.....And for me....It's "Real Exsistance"...But It is my No.2 in my "imaginary top 5" BAND-MAID tracks.("Daydreaming" No.1 for personal reasons not just because it's a MASTERPIECE)....As we all know..There's no such thing as a BAND-MAID Top 5..As EVERYTHING they do it AWESOME!...To me anyway.....They have been the light in my darkness..And I will be forever grateful to Miku 🌹for her dream and bringing these amazing ladies together...............They are truly 🪄Magical🪄.............And as Miku once said .✨🥰"A Miracle Po!"🥰✨
they are miracles indeed. And to have such an amazing fanbase, well that comes fromt the top down. they have a special place in my heart replacing an empty heart as well. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series.
@@unclespooky I'm sure I shall...I mean..what's not to like about BAND-MAID and it's members?...hehe!.🙂
Such a beautiful woman. I was drawn to her from the first time I saw them play.
One thing that blew me away were the statistics on the number of shows they performed. That's a lot of hard work & commitment. So glad they managed to save her voice.
So, I've had to sub, to get the notification for the next episode.
This is so insightful. Bandmaid is my favorite band and Saiki is definitely my favorite female singer hands down.
Hey @Ohrengi I'm putting up some NYC videos of bandmaid if you want to check it out. From one fan to another
Excellent job! Thank you for this wonderful gift.
Great job!
感動しました・・・！
ありがとうございました。
Well that was fun :) I knew some of this, but certainly not all, and I consider myself an ardent fan (since 2017 and my interest hasn't waned one bit). The next parts are going to be great! New music this week too!
Very nice. Can't wait next

Awesome video. Thank you very much.

Excellent...very well done!
Added information: Only child, Father - woodcutter and mother did work at a Lawer`s Office.
Not much to say really, except, thank you for this beautiful little documentary about a truly wonderful singer.
As someone that does interviews for a living and a huge Band Maid fan, for me this Documentary was awesome. Most of this I already knew but the delivery and heart felt and the script was perfect. This was a documentary from a fan, and honestly when I do interviews with artists the best ones I do are when I am a fan of the band. I will be interviewing Band Maid when them come to New York in Oct and this piece will certainly help me when I do that. My friend you are an amazing talent and I look forward to the rest of this series. And as I have said to you before , I really hope one day to colab with you on a project. Major props to all involved. Thank you
Thank you for your kind words. That's a first as I never worked on something that long but I did my best.
Lucky you to be able to interview them ! Have a great time there, I'll be at their show enjoying from the audience side. I would love to colab with you, let me know if you have anything in mind !
@@Ohrenje will you be at the New York show?
@@joeseconi250 Yes I will! I'll be in DC, Philadelphia, NY and Boston.
Dice was my first Band Maid song. I have never been able to pick a favorite Maid. It looks like I will end up doing it like every newbie does with Band Maid's songs. Every new video will introduce me to my favorite Maid. I hope 🙏 you end it with a video about Band Maid as a whole to put me back in balance as a Maidiac.
Awesome video. Looking forward to the rest of the members in this series. Much respect for all the work put towards this project.
This was very well done, my many thanks for your efforts! Saiki is so very loved and appreciated by us Maidiacs, I hope she realizes this. I especially appreciated her contributions on the acoustic okyu-ji, not just her incredible singing, but the parts of her personality she shared with us on the commentary version of that show. She is the perfect singer for the perfect band.
How good. What a quality production. As for the subject, well you've done her justice, she's brilliant.

I didn't hear about band-maid until only a few days ago. I didn't laugh. Japanese bands are soooo talented! Saiki is amazing.
Glad that you join us ! You have a lot to catch up :) Feel free to watch the documentary about Kanami and join us on Discord.
First time listening to them was Thrill when adding alot of different artist from Japan to my playlist. I thank Spotify and Garnidelia and alot more for bringing them to my recommendations.
As I listened more and more. I absolutely fell in love with Saiki's Voice, as well as how hard the Band plays their heart out at each show. Dallas and Austin shows. Daydreaming and Corallium are my favorites as well as Unleash.
1:40 Her mother is from Osaka.
Now I understand why she is an avid Hanshin Tiger fan.
Thank you for your work, this is fantastic! I hope many people see this, it will definitely help them to appreciate how amazing human beings are the members of this incredible band!
Excellent! A couple of bits and pics I had not seen before. A band truly worthy of any and all accolades bestowed upon them.
They had done lots more live shows in between tours. Miku and Saiki said that they have performed over 1000 live shows by now. As you said the word "Lazy" doesn't fit with this band, but "Workaholic" will...probably😏
Love, Sai-chan💕💕💕

ワタシは率直に言って彩姫はこうありたいという願望とこうなってしまう現実の振れ幅が大きい不器用な人なのだと勝手に思っています。紙面上割愛しますがその狭間でもがいている姿が親近感を生み限界を設けること無く高みに向かう姿勢が彼女に対する我々の敬意となって表れている、かと思うとホントに可愛らしい一面をふと覗かせてみたりと捉え所の無い場面もあったりして何だかんだ言ってもband-maidのメンバーですからまぁ魅力的に決まってるんです👍
I really love Sai-chan❣️
This is one of very best programs on our beloved Maids.
He'll yeah, there are no weak or stronger pillar in this band. They are equally necessary.
Awesome docu-series! Can't wait for Misa's story.
Having listened to a LOT of J-rock and VK for over several decades, I learned how not to judge a band by their appearances, Dir en Grey, Versailles Philharmonic Quintet, Malice Mizer and X Japan being perfect examples, lol. So Band-Maid just continued a long track record of Japanese rock that really rocks despite how they dress.
How did I not find this channel before? Awesome high-effort documentary.
Haha glad you find me now :)
this is wonderful!
Thanks to this video I am now an Obato. Well done!
