    This is a great fit, Momoko Okazaki most definitely earned this, she worked for this moment, put everything in this, and now she is Momometal, yes, this does make sense.
    If you ever see Momoko perform with Babymetal, even as a dancer, she has an infectious personality, she has a beautiful smile, has a charm about her, and, simply put, she just seems to love and enjoy what she is doing on stage.
    Being a member of Sakura Gakuin is a major benefit, this powerhouse group molded these three women into the talent they are today. Not to mention being from the great academy makes it even more meaningful. And not too many people can say that they can keep up with Moa Kikuchi when it comes to her dancing abilities, I've noticed that she has at times outdanced Su-metal a few times, but Momometal can actually stay step for step with Moametal, which only those from Sakura Gakuin would be able to do.
    I'm hoping Yui Mizuno is doing well and is enjoying her life, I will ALWAYS love her to no end, but I believe even Tomato-kun would approve of this.
    Welcome, Momoko Okazaki, a.k.a. Momometal. May you stand tall and proud with your sisters on stage. Thank you for letting me express my feelings about this.🦊🌸🦊🌸🦊🌸🦊🌸🦊🌸🦊🌸

  • @AlizeeDefan
    @AlizeeDefan Před rokem +6

    I've been advocating for her to be made a full member as well. The only thing missing from her in the last 5 years is a microphone! Regardless , she sang or lip-sang to every song, with perfect timing. I really found it both absurd and aggravating , that she was not fitted for a mic set up. What is the big deal? We were not going to love the former Yui any less. Very silly and stupid decision to do that. I am glad she was officially chosen, but then again, shes been here all the time. Can't wait for her to spread her wings a bit, show her talents and input with Moa & SU 🥰

  • @AlizeeDefan

    Glad you emphasized that Momo has earned this. I mean, she's basically been auditioning for it for five years! In a lot of videos of the more recent live performances, you can clearly see her singing along, and it's great to see her hard work being acknowledged.
    I have to agree, the dynamic since they became a duo + 1 has been... off. Su is undeniably the lead in the group, but Moa wound up in this weird position of 'first among equals' that just seemed... awkward.
    I would also love to see them revisit some BLACK BABYMETAL songs. I've seen Moa do some of them solo recently and wouldn't mind seeing new duet versions with more mature vocals. MO' BABYMETAL for a new sub-unit name? 'Mo' being the first sylable of both their names, but also as a shortening of 'more'. Japan do be liking their wordplay and double meanings.

    From the perspective of a long time Babymetal fan, I'm glad to see Momoko finally be recognised as an official member of the band. She had been supporting them and filling in for Yui for literally years. It was clear that if Yui wasn't going to return after the one year hiatus that Momo was going to have to be initiated into the band as its new third member, and rightfully so. She definitely earned it. I loved Yui as much as anyone else, but that ship has sailed. I wish Yui the best of luck going forward and also looking forward to see Momoko shine as the official third member of the group.

    Thank you so much for this news and breakdown! I feel that Momoka will complement Moa nicely and she seems to be high energy and exuberant, making her a good match. I will say that I hope they leave her hair down. She's way taller than Moa so the twin factor is long out the door, and I think people will accept her more if she isn't "force-fit" into Yui's old spot. Moa's dancing has improved substantially - she's a lot more poised and self-controlled on stage and she looks great dancing with Momoko - they're very fluid and graceful but also maintain the high energy and exuberance that we expect from our support team. Welcome, Momo-metal!!!

    OMG I'm soooooooo made up for Momoko to be officially an equal part of the group!!! I always felt a bit bad that she was almost like a "temp" for so long, but additionally that Moametal was in the shadow of Sumetal despite it basically being a duo since Yui departed.
    All that said, I think the BM "machine" has gone about it as well as they could have. I think any earlier (e.g. Fox Day last year) might have been too early for some, but any later than now would have made it beyond uncomfortable.
    I know it wouldn't happen in public, but imagine if Yui came out with a public and sincere congratulations for Momoko! I think my heart would explode lol!!

    • @BakaBroadcast

    Momoko has definitely earned the spot. I've been advocating for her to be made a full member for a couple of years. I'm very happy for her and her fans. But as a fan of Yui I'm torn. It's both good and bad to finally put an end to the constant speculation, but knowing the Yui era has officially ended is sad and removing the Yui skull from their logo was a real kick in the teeth. That said, all I really want for Yui is for her to be happy. I hope she is.
    And if anyone is going to take Yui's spot in BM, I suppose it's only apt that it's the same girl who took her spot in Mini-Pati 🙂

I would like to see her get equal screen time, have a mic and the twin tails.

      @BakaBroadcast  Před rokem

      Thanks for the comment and I do totally get this. I think it is understandable that Babymetal have changed over time and that people will shift away from them not out of hate, just that people do grow apart from artists. I think Yui's departure unfortunately gave a moment that could be seen as pivotal to that change, when it was kind of on the way slowly for a while.
      Like you, I do also think that Babymetal's strongest suit is that mixture of the JPop fun with the heavy metal rawness. I do understand they couldn't keep that going in the same form forever (age, risking "gimick" label), but the Black Babymetal concept was a great way of giving the band two sides, and allowing one of them to be focused on that kind of silly fun that stops Babymetal getting too dark.
      Although Momoko might not be for everyone's taste, I really do hope to see her singing some songs with Moa that give us a second side back to Babymetal. A less serious alternative face to the group that just returns some of that levity.
      I have really enjoyed their recent work, although I do totally accept that the production focus is not for everyone, but I will be very excited to have some of the crazy injected back in again. I think Momoko can do that :)

    I was thinking how they build things up and then deliver what we all expected. But I can understand the reason for the long drawn out delay in the announcement if it was to allow the new songs and album to have time to be consumed and digested by fans and just those with a passing interest. I doubt anybody will have any doubts over Momo Metal and it will be interesting just how safe or different Baby Metal decide to be when they go on from here. After the big build up to the new songs left me feeling undecided. I am relieved that Baby Metal will return as the gateway music drug that led many of us onto the other great Japanese bands we have since discovered.

    It would feel way better to let Yui go and welcome Momoko, if there would have been some information from Yui and her real reasons for leaving the band. No need to go into health details, or contract situations or anything like that, just some sentences from her that there are no hard feelings left. Because to me with all that mystery around her leaving like it went down, I always wondered if there was a major dispute.

      As Mondlichts said, it's none of our business. Japan is highly respectful of privacy. While in the Western world, details of the private lives of celebrities are plastered all over the tabloids, in Japan, they only report what has been officially announced. I recall a foreign reporter being blacklisted in Japan for reporting about a pregnancy in the imperial family before it was announced, even though it was a public secret. So, if Yui doesn't want to talk about it, it's none of our business.

    Agree with so much of what you say.

Stable door flapping open, guys, who was left? a wise metal-head with connections told me the silence surrounding Yui was 'undoubtedly contractual' so we hope to see her pop up under her own name now, not returning to Babymetal.

      It would probably attract new fans. I like all the early Babymetal songs, but I sure as hell don't want to keep doing the same style as before. Those songs were appropriate for their age. They're now in the mid 20s. The music should evolve with the girls as they grow into adults. In fact I would find it very creepy if they continue doing songs like Gimme Chocolate.

      @BakaBroadcast  Před rokem +1

      Two interesting comments in this thread. Regarding "who it is for", I think that is really open for interpretation. Personally I feel that they are returning the original 3-point dynamic to the group. Therefore, I think it is for people who liked the musical dynamic and what that meant in regards to the arrangements they could do. That was a little lost of recent where more pressure and focus was put on Su kind of being given more prominance than Moa.
      Regarding the "maturity" aspect Maple brought up. I think the band has been aware of that since the second album. They have shifted towards a more traditionally grownup look and sound. That said, I think it is ok to keep an element of innocence so long as it is self-aware. Momoko seems to be bright and cheery in nature and I can imagine her keeping the fun element that Babymetal need in order to still be light hearted without playing towards any creepy tricks :D
      Nice points!

      @BakaBroadcast  Před rokem

      @@Jordan-Ramses At the core, I totally agree with your premise, and I have often said that the idol group elements delivered some of my favourite BabyMetal moments. Infact, I often take flack from regulars here for saying there is too much copy/paste metal.
      So, I think the only point I would add to that here is that I still feel they are different enough to be unique, despite scaling back on some of those elements. The focus more on Japanese female (non metal) vocals, alongside staff written songs that can vary hugely in style compared to self-writing bands, All that combined with a singing and dancing stage show, I would struggle to imagine Babymetal, especially with a new third, becoming just another metal group.
      That said, I do still agree that they have scaled back some of the quirky edges, and I hope Momoko brings them back in those directions a little more, and with a new style. Just my thought, and maybe I am an optimist :D , but I feel like this is a step in that direction hopefully.

    Yui will always be part of Babymetal and won't be forgotten and she will get everyone's support if she chooses to start a solo career. Other than that we can only hope she is healthy and happy doing what she wants to.
