- First time watching "An Unhelpful Guide to BABYMETAL".
The time has come my friends...
An accumulation of wonderful Babymetal viewing and listening has turned us into fans.
Now, we must venture deeper into the Babymetal universe and learn about their origin, obstacles, triumphs and tragedies.
That is what we hoped this video would bring and it certainly delivered.
A lot of things were answered for us and now we can say that we truly understand Babymetal better and love them even more!
Thank you again for everyone watching, commenting and supporting the channel. It really does mean a lot!

No one really knows why Yui left. It has always been because of poor health. On a side note, Yui taught herself how to dance by watching Karen Girl's video. She had sick family members in hospital and this was her way of dealing with it. She wanted to be able to dance for them when they got better.
Su and Moa still consider her part of Babymetal family.
"Su-metal says her and Moametal hold no animosity towards their former bandmate.
Su-metal exclusively tells the magazine: “We’ve been together for a long time - Yuimetal is like a family member to this group. Although she has left, we’ll continue to support her and hope that she can pursue what she’d like to do in the future.”
The belief is that she had back problems, thus the length of time out before finally leaving.
@@paulbroady4141 yes I have heard. I know she fell off stage at an earlier performance.
@@GorillaGorilla Yui fell off the stage at budokan in 2014, years before she left and she was on stage again for the next song again, so I guess this can't be the reason. Or did I miss something and she fell again later? My guess: A combination of (whatever) health reasons and she does not want to be in public anymore. Why else has she not been seen one single time since? Except if her health is so dramatically bad, that this can not be said officially (which I do not hope). As said, just a guess.
Still, fact is no one has seen her since.
@@aegonthedragon6341 not no one, Su and Moa have both seen her and have said she is doing well.
Finally, now that you know them a little, then I'm looking forward for more Babymetal and Sakura Gakuin reactions.
Yes, glad yu finally saw this,,....Please react to live BABYMETAL- "Kagerou", proshot fancam 2018-19 compilation , with Kami Band west solos Intro, no copyright probs.,🤪🐺 super underrated...seldom reacted to...

Thanks, The One 🦊 Vancouver
Nice reaction...Yes, knowing them and what they went through all 10 years...you really have to give them the respect...They earned it...
True❤️🦊🤘
Nice reaction. This is a good guide (despite the maker's personal issues with and opinions of men) and a couple of minor points that were not quite right, but not far enough off to worry about. There is a new guide recently posted that brings you up to date
The video told you pretty much all we know about Yui, please ignore any theories or speculation beyond what was said (they are all based on absolutely zero evidence and over-active imaginations). She missed the Legend S shows in December 2017 under doctors' advice, she was absent throughout the US tour in 2018 - the two (not "numerous") extra dancers and change of formation for the choreo on that tour suggests her place was being held in the hope and expectation she would be back (probably for the Dark Night Carnival shows), but she was not fully recovered and was still unable to perform, so she decided she would leave the band and stated that she hoped to follow her own personal long held dreams.
The only thing there may be some evidence for is that she had suffered a back injury, but even that is speculation ... nobody knows, nobody is telling.
That’s why people should be watching the new one that doesn’t insult most the fanbase czcams.com/video/LcRLmizE4C0/video.html
This is a poor guide made by a woman who hates men.
@@paulbroady4141 it also subtly suggests Moa might be gay, which she could be I have no issue with that, but I have never seen any evidence to support this
@@paulbroady4141 Yes. She even calls herself a misandrist on her tumblr, 'Kobametal hate blog'.
CrypticMisery made a much better guide recently. I would suggest that this should be the go to suggestion for other reactors
On Yui situation: no one really knows what happened but they spent the full year really waiting for her to return. In a recent interview Su and Moa explain how they decided to continue performing in 2018 not doing any thing really definitive as they wanted to leave a spot for Yui to come back but without stopping the band activity. In the Dark Night Carnival arena show that was performed the 28 of october 2018, just two weeks after the official statement of her leaving the band, the stage is still built with three spots, two on the sides and one in the center. Clearly they built that stage thinking Yui would be performing there.
Even a year later, on summer 2019, they performed two sister arena shows. One in Nagoya for Moa's birthday, Nagoya is Moa's province hometown. But there was another very similar show two weeks before. Yui birthday is two weeks before than Moa's, and it was in Yui's province hometown in Yokohama. So that means that when they reserved the venues a year before, around summer 2018, they still had in mind for Yui to be performing next year. Remind that Yui last performance was in october of 2017 and then they spent until october of 2018 waiting for her to return.
There isn't an official explanation of what really happened, but we see a lot of clues that she was trying to come back until the last moment and that both Su and Moa and Team Babymetal tried to leave an spot for her to return. We still do not know from her whereabouts as of today, her last public appearance was at Big Fox Festival with Babymetal in october 2017.

🤘🤘🤘
Makes me wonder if Yui attended the Yokohama concert (probably not bc health but imagine if :(( )
There has been a sighting since then, hasn't it?
@@vergil8833 No, and still no new info on Yui.
@@Hadesillo Really? I thought she was briefly filmed on a bike (knowingly). But maybe that was from before and people just posted it while lying about it being new.
I always look forward to people who seem like genuine fans watching this. I'm glad you decided to do it!
On Yui's departure: All it would really take to force someone out of Babymetal is a persistent joint problem. The same kind of thing that end the careers of professional athletes. So that's my assumption. Maybe she developed a bad knee or something. That's the kind of injury where people will spend a year or years without any clear idea of when or if they will fully recover.
We'll likely never know the specifics, because Japan doesn't have the same kind of celebrity journalism that we do in the west. There hasn't been so much as a single photo since she stopped performing. There have been conspiracy theories floating around, but the official explanation is very plausible, so I don't see any reason to try to come up with other explanations based on even less information.
Thank you! Appreciate the info too
Indeed, I have a problem with my knee too after years of running marathon, so I had to leave it, but anyway, remember Yui had an accident falling from the stage while performing the chanting part in the middle of the song, after that she immediately recover for the next song, but in the next song was Moa the one injured on a leg and you can clearly see she's in pain, there's a couple of vids of that moment, so who knows, maybe that leave sequels to Yui but not for Moa perhaps because the intensity was different. We just hope she's ok after all and with the less sequels to not banned her for doing performances. Coming to think about it, I recently saw a mini doc about a J-Pop idol group with a member suffering an horrible accident who leaves her in wheelchair and the group still have her and performance with them in wheelchair, talking about integration 🤯❤️
At the final Fox Festival in 2017 stage footage shows Yui was clearly wearing some sort of back brace underneath her costume and her choreography was more limited than usual.
In their traditional backstage "thank you" photo after the show Yui looked REALLY unhappy and ill. Some have speculated that Yui sustained an injury when she fell off the stage at the 2014 Budokan gig, which steadily got worse over the next three years.
This could explain why Amuse have kept her under contract to this day, despite Yui not having done anything since 2017. A failure in Health and Safety responsibility perhaps?
Yep they born for this and they never give up, that's why we love them so much but...
As for YuiMetal affair, please, please, don't be confuse or mislead by any rumor or misinformation, Yui has an official statement and she said the health issues plus the need to come back someday as Yui Mizuno solo artist is what she wants, and that's it, we don't need to speculate more, I know, we miss her and everything but we've got to respect privacy, in Japan is a matter thing. We heard a lot of stupid stories throughout these years coming mostly from the toxic fandom from Japan saying things like she was __pregnant__ and many more none senses, is not like she can't have her own life and have kids or something but it's simply not true as well as many other things. And of course we all know she and Moa are like sisters, so there's no reason to think this was an internal fight or something, she just feel her way to shine on her own and that's ok, she loves Ariana Grande and she's a reference for her since childhood, so she might think she can do it by her own and she probably will 🙂
So please, let us all Yui alone, respect her decision, miss her and cry everytime we saw her, is unavoidable but still move on because Babymetal is way bigger than that and they're keeping the magic everytime they performance live.
Thanks for this reaction guys. Kitsune up! 🦊🤘❤️
Oh it's the old guide. There is a new one recently made here: czcams.com/video/LcRLmizE4C0/video.html
My dream is to see Su having Yui
and Moa in a headlock and saying we will never be apart again. I wish all three of them a bless future.
It’s a shame you didn’t check out the newer guide I recently made. It goes into more detail about Yui’s situation as well as including other information this one does not. Here’s a link: czcams.com/video/LcRLmizE4C0/video.html
You know we saw your comments and didn’t respond soon enough so our apologies! We had started this video reaction awhile ago and didn’t finish editing it. However, we can watch your video and do another mini reaction with pieces you added. Thanks for the update and sticking with us
@@FollowtheEve It’s not a big deal, no need to apologize! I enjoyed your reaction to this one anyways!
If you see the last show of the Five Fox Festival - Yui was there, but then again, she was not at heart, you can see that somthing is off.
Since you like morning musume you need to watch MOA do a cover of Love machine at the legend 1999 show
BabyMetal got known in the USA 🇺🇸 in 2016. Was touring with Metallica and guns and roses.
Tips：Japanese「可憐」(karen)＝ pretty,lovely,cute,sweet…
The pic at first of sleepy Yui is too cute.
Su: Master of the show, stage general, godess of vocal
Moa: Super idol, the loving force, everything an ideal idol should be
Yui: Cutest dance machine, pure kawaii force, precious child
Dude never shuts up through out the whole video omg smdh. They missed so much because he literally wouldn't shut up.
It's been stated often enough that no one knows about what went wrong with Yui's health.
But if you watch her last performances (Five Fox Festivals and others during that time), you could notice something that could be a clue: Yui doesnt seem to smile that often anymore and looks very concentrated during the performaces. She bows only half the way that Moa does, and uses her hands to help kneeling down. Someone else stated already that problems with junctions can be a longterm or permanent issue - and yes, that often happens in the idol indutry. It is the best clue we have that does not base completely on made up rumors.
Oh! And yes, they always awaited Yui's return!
They didnt even use the BABYMETAL logo on their stages on the world tour during that whole episode. Instead, they used the symbolized eclipse, as if they wanted to say "it is us but we are not complete". (BABYMETAL math: 1+1+1=1 )
And even now there is still a door open for Yui's return. The concept with the unnamed "avengers" would allow it for Yui to sneak on stage as the 3rd member for as long as her health allows. (I dont want to spread hope where there probably is none, but thats the way i see the new concept: They did not close all doors. Yui also is still under contract with Amuse.)
I didn't realize this guide was so controversial.
Always more Babymetal forever! 👍🦊❤️
The girl who made it calls herself a misandrist on her tumblr blog 'Kobametal hate blog'.
There have been all kinds of stories about Yui and her departure. Rumors of a pregnancy or serious disease or contract argument with Amuse have all been floated in the web. But I believe the official statement released by Yui that stated her health was a problem and that she wanted to pursue a solo career. Babymetal was not her dream of the future. And my understanding is that all three are still friends and care about each other deeply. Personally I hope that one day soon they will officially announce that all three of the Avengers will be added permanently, I think they all are amazing. (Riho Sayashi is my favorite though) Being an "idol group" at heart, it would make complete sense to add all three.
Momometal❤❤
Yuimetal's health I believe has something to do with her going in and out of conciseness during interviews and having delayed reactions. We all make fun of this but it could be the reason for her ill health. These are symptoms of Narcolepsy, and can be very dangerous for performers on stage. I am not saying that this is the case, just an observation. I feel very sad for Yuimetal and wish her all the best.
Thanks
its finally time. lol. great reactions
🙏❤️
the closest i have heard on yui was that coming up to her final performances she had been seen with a back brace on and she danced more upright than bent over as she would normally do. There are clips where you can see the imprint under her costume. There was nothing official said about it though.
Nice reaction and I love the channel, particularly the BABYMETAL content. You really seem like you've become fans. That said, you're killing me with the name mistakes...especially immediately after you watched THIS video, hahahaha!
You had it and lost it. You were calling Su, Su, and the moment the video stopped, you called her Sui (I'm guessing partly an overload of information and mixing hers and Yui's names together). She isn't a pig that you're calling to!
I'm totally being a wiseass, in all honesty. I just found it funny that you had her name correct all throughout the video, then the moment it stopped you started with the other. I laughed...a lot!
Thank you for watching! Lol we apologize and will try to be more on point with the names 😊
The FOX GOD heard their mistake and saw that it was good. Then in his big booming voice declared "Babymetal's new names shall be Sui, Yua and Mozuka!"
The sun and the moon
アリガトウ !
from 10 yo children to 80 year olds Babymetal have the ability to unite us all in their positive and metal energy. this cannot be manufactured as most imply
it is just pure talent managed well that wins people over.
who can hate cute Japanese girls doing metal ? only those that hate themselves
Health Problems, best not to make wild and rather erroneous guesses on why she left. Her full personal statement was on going health issues, many think it could have been a back problem because it looked as though she might of been wearing a black brace during her last show the Big Fox Festival. Even that is just speculation.
Karen Girl's: Karen = Lovely
😅 actually the heights of the girls in the Guide are outdated, they were that shor... ehm tall when they began. Now they are all about the same height, SU is 5.1 and MOA 5.0. YUI is 5.1 too.
How tall is that in 21st century measuring systems?
@@Hadesillo 156 cm SU and YUI, 152 cm MOA. Yeah, for a while MOA has been taller than YUI but then it went the other way around 😅
Thank you. They certainly seem bigger on stage.
don't get fooled by amuse's old info, which they don't update forever ^^;
su's been as tall as perfume mebers (5'4" on average) in the recent photo and yui was as tall as the great little kami member called mikio (5'2") already in 2016.
su, moa and perfume

excellent content
🙏❤️
pls react to Atarashii Gakko!
they are idol group from japan since 2015.. but this year they debut internationally under 88rising...
check out their songs
NAINAINAI (i recommend 'live from the train car' version)
otona blue
koi no shadanki
Now you can start to do Sakura Gakuin reactions. But please don't stop once Moa and Yui graduated. There's so many cool songs and great girls to discover. My all time favourite Sakura Gakuin song is from 2015 (Moa and Yui left the previous year) and it's called Mathematica. Myself and all the other Sakura Gakuin fans are crying out for more reaction videos. Please consider reacting to Sakura Gakuin music videos and I'd be so happy to see you react to Mathematica. This is also the first year that two of the Babymetal Avengers, Kano and Momoko joined SG. czcams.com/video/F7hPuYMl0z0/video.html
I suggest you also react to sakura gakuin, in addition to watching the music videos I recommend you see the nendo class
Thanks! It’s on the list ☺️
I'm sorry for my English haha, the nendo class tests are general culture exams that were done every year, I recommend starting with 2010 since it's the first one.
Nendo Class Test (They are all together in the same video from 2010 to 2014 as they deleted most nendo class: czcams.com/video/T9LWFc9AKtA/video.html

Awesome reaction I been a fan for 10 years been to tons of shows here in japan 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Nice! Thank you so much 😊
@@FollowtheEve anytime 🙇🏻♂️
you should react to Eminem book of rhymes these demons and Zeus from the new album
Karen=可憐=pretty
So many cuts
Nice reaction, the Unhelpful Guide to BABYMETAL is a great video for new and long time fans.
Yes but you should see the new one it’s much better czcams.com/video/LcRLmizE4C0/video.html
@@andyt2881 yeah, but this first one is a classic nonetheless.
@@DeePal072 but the new one is better
@@andyt2881 I like this one better
@@butterfly-yh8zn This one is definitely funnier although it's hard to not be offended by some of the things she says about us fans. The new one has none of that man-hating nonsense and is more up to date.
i don't think it's health related and have no evidence of that - but why would you leave the best band in history ??? there's more to it but japan hides things .
WHOAAAA! Makes me laugh every time. 44 minutes is nothing to BABYMETAL fans.
Moametal best metal
Nice reaction guys!
BABYMETAL FOREVER
🤘🤘🤘
All hail The Fox God
Thank you so much! ❤️
"Sui"metal? What? Just Su-metal lol
We really don't know what happened to YUI, except it's indeed an health issue, that she's recovering and was supposed to get back on stage soon, maybe this year, but not with BM. We got these few infos only because she's still with AMUSE and she was mentioned in their 2019 annual report.
It has been speculated that maybe she withdraw to pursue a solo career, based on the last line of her leaving statement, but that's silly, it was meant only to reassure her fans, that's all.
Please Reaction to Imminence Infectious
Love your channel 💯👌👌
I always wondered if Yui was diabetic. Her love of tomatoes, maybe something kind of sweet because of issues with sugar. Her small stature may be a result of kidney issues. Her drowsiness,. Maybe she can't continue because of the activity levels. Going solo with a less physical nature. Just a guess.
About the name Karen - Although it has a negative connotation right now in the States, the name Karen was not derived from English but from Japanese, written as 可憐, which means lovely or pretty. The guide mentioned that the Karen Girls were put together to sing songs for an anime, the anime in question was called "Zettai Karen Children" meaning "Absolutely Lovely Children" and so Karen Girls means Lovely Girls.
At 24:12 "So there is a goddess... and this is a sacrifice to the goddess" - Not exactly, Su IS the goddess. If you remember the video "Babymetal Death" there was a narrative at the beginning. The narrative states that Su has to sacrifice her mortality (the crucifixion) in order to be reborn as the goddess, Su-Metal. The thing you heard at 24:03 is just an expansion of the narrative to include "The One" (the collective name of the fans) and so that it could be connected to the Metal Galaxy lore.
the name "Karen girls" really didn't age well ;-)
For those who don't know the word Karen in Karen Girls is actually the Japanese word 可憐 (kah-reh-n) which just means lovely, cute or sweet.
you skip su's part. dislike
Sorry 😞. We shall not fail you or her again
Wrong guide.
