I like that their name literally means "New School". They are a different breed that deviates from what you usually expect from an idol group.
@Mura....I thought their Name Atarashii Gakko means means No Leaders
new school leaders

@@GaryAa56 新しい new 学校 school のリーダーズ possessive + loanword for leaders = 新しい学校のリーダーズ new school leaders 🙌
@@gargoylekitty I just thought it was no leaders because on various live videos that's how they've been introduced
I love the clips of them in NYC. People just walk past in the background like they see Japanese schoolgirls dancing in the street on the regular.
I mean, nyc's just like that. People doing random things and everyone being phased out from all the random
It's not the Japanese schoolgirls dancing in the streets in themselves. New Yorkers are used to seeing film crews, so they know their job is to walk through and pretend the cameras aren't there.
even the pro commedians who are mc's of their talk show got dumbfonded ans stunned when they start their formation greeting
They've all graduated HS. Full time entertainers now. Also, the details of their beginnings are somewhat unknown, I'm pretty sure it was just Asobi System and their manager OTA putting them together after auditions, or just noting them in their earlier activities, just like other idol groups of that age. They didn't "self-form". Rin and Kanon had been in various dance activities, Mizyu had been a backup dancer for KPP and Suzuka had already done some vocal and dance stuff.
Would be weird to be in high school in your 20s lol
So they formed a band together while attending high school and blew up in the midst of it. Finish school but still using the high school girl swag? Am i getting this right?
they are in their twenties now (2024) and formed somewhere around 2016. do the math yourself.
Great video, Atarashi Gakko and Ado are artists that continue to break boundaries
THIS YESS>>>>
Babymetal and Pikarin Shiina too! Don’t forget about them
@@YourJapanic true, im just not well versed in either groups
@@DrOctavius99 it’s ok lol
(Also pikarin is a soloist fyi)
ADO MENTIONED !!!
This is my absolute favorite group right now. Suzuka's voice is freaking incredible.
I'm sorry they're funny and adorable, not scary.
Scary is a crazy definition 😂
EXACTLY like where did that even come from? Unhinged? yeah but scary? Ehhhh
somewhat clickbait ig
You should do a video on how the boarders between kpop and jpop have been falling within the last 10 years, and the influences each have had on each other
Ill look into it!
japanese people dont see this group as scary, they have overwhelming positive reviews and first impressions from japanese people due to their unique wholesome and friendly energy, i have no idea where you got that impression from. "scary" is the furthest possible description of this group.
right?
I think its a click bait title, but for some people their uniqueness is very shocking
ur mom scary
@@wolololol1715 r mom is dead
The “scared people” in question is probably 60 years old grandmas 💀
You make it sound like the Japanese see Atarashii Gakko as a conspiracy to change Japan, it couldn't be more far from the truth. Where you get scary is beyond me. Babymetal doesn't confirm to Japanese society yet, they too have a World of followers followers. AG is an awesome group. You're looking too deeply into the meaning when you should just chill and enjoy the music.
nah, babymetals of today has became more corporated, being just 'an idol group with metal gimmick'
rather than conspiracy, AG! is a response from the younger generation about the stagnation of japanese society post economic bubble.
Foreigners always do this. They think all of Japan is this docile timid society when that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Japanese are polite not nice. Sayaka acts like your average Osaka native.
yea, although I love AG they are nowhere near close to being scary, intimidating or breaking norms. they are just slightly more unique in their style. artists like midori would probably fit that description better.
It always has been corporate since day 1 LMAO @@adrianusatmawijaya4049
let the man theorize and tell their look on the music. that’s the beauty of music. some people will see is as a piece to vibe to, and others see it as a deeper message
Many ppl probably doesn't know that majority of japanese comedian are from kansai region (osaka, kyoto, etc).
Fun fact there was an american hip hop group called leaders of the new school (busta rhymes was in it actually) so this would be the second time a group called leaders of the new school shook some stuff up
they were the best thing about this years Coachella
Cool video, I love Atarashii Gakko!
Atarashii Gakko is officially a dance/vocal unit and dance performance unit, they make all their choreographies, contribute to their songs, write a lot of their own lyrics and collaborate with many artists and bands for the creation of their productions which allows them to have a very diverse sound. AG aren't technically an idol group but they play in the codes of idol culture.
Also a cool thing about them is how each member is unique and is actually talented, like Suzuka's amazing charisma and personality and her drawing hobby, Rin's hip hop background and urban dance style and the fact she is also a DJ. They aren't trying to paint a fabricated image of themselves, they just show it how it is which is not only rare in celebrities nowadays but rare to see in the internet in general.
Also unrelated point but, I can see you confuse idol groups and actual bands from when you mentioned "band boom" of the 1990s and then associated it with the idol culture of Japan, and then in the video compared Sakanaction (an actual band of musicians) to arashi (an idol group) when these two are 2 entirely different media categories in Japan, idols are not seen as musicians in Japan, idols are mainly and above everything else a group of entertainers working for a business, the entire business model and creative direction is led by the company, examples would be any group made under the "Johnny & Associates" company or stuff like AKB48. While bands are actual groups formed by musicians who know each other like any japanese rock/jazz/metal bands
In term of the japanese music industry, singer-songwriters and bands are the more prevalent form of musical acts you'll find, rock bands are everywhere and are all formed by musicians often starting their activity while the members are either in college or high school, and the musicians that don't form rock bands generally go the singer-songwriter route and lately a lot of them start that as Vocaloid producers. AG don't technically fall in either, they are formed by a group of friends, have all the creative freedom, contribute to their sound and songs but aren't the actual musicians playing their instruments on stage, many other groups falling under what fans call "alternative idol" genre are also following the same direction which is great
they have such a unique vibe.unlike other idol groups where the idols are just pretty and sexy,this group is like that one weird friend group but they're so easy to vibe with and i love it,they genuinely want to change the japanese society and im here to support them
I found them randomly, can’t remember exactly how, but I did and got on their sound and style they have.
The same with me, now I'm a fan for lie
It was lockdown and TikTok for me 😂
That’s one way to discover a new band, during lockdown.
I found them in their Japanese HS explanation video
really loved their coachella performance, the more i see of them, the more i like them. so good.
loving those girls! they recently performed at Coachella and I'm so excited that they are growing
Great vid. AG are unlike anything before. I love their punk rock vibe, and the fact they bring joy wherever they appear. These ladies are just what the world needs right now.
I LITERALLY LOVE THEIR SONGS ISTG
I found out of this band last year and Suzuka strikes me the most since her glasses has firmer grip than my faith to humanity.
AG are so much fun to watch! No one like them and the energy is insane in the best way. discovered them while streaming Coachella CZcams
I am a 55 year old music lover, and AG is my very favourite group. I have been listening to and meditating on their music daily for years. The more I learn about them and their philosophy, the more I realize how many of their songs carry a deeper message of joy, gratitude, love, kindness, awe, wonder, and other positive emotions. I believe Pineapple Kryptonite for example is about how sweetness (represented by pineapple) can overcome negativity (represented by the monster) just like Kryptonite overwhelming Superman. That in Zero Pressure Suits, the suit represents a state of mind in which you don’t let negativity drag you down, and challenges roll off you like water on hydrophobic fabric, and if you do get a stain on your suit (something drags you down), you can always wash your suit, which represents forgiveness and redemption. All of their songs have these double meanings of fierce positivity, boundless freedom, the joy of pure creativity, and eternal love. They are so much more than they seem on the surface. They are much more than a band. A deep and endlessly positive transformative philosophy runs through everything they do. In my life I aspire to embody what Atarashii Gakko stands for. They inspire me on a daily basis more than any religious philosophy ever has.
im 55 to and enjoy there antics keeps me young
excuse me. "atarashii gakko was born when they met in high school".. please revise that. this group was formed in 2015. mizyu 1998, rin & suzuka 2001, kanon 2002. that time only mizyu was in highschool. :)
also, although they don't mind to be called as "idol". they don't consider themselves as "idol". the source is from this old interview czcams.com/video/AbKKCyapF7Y/video.htmlsi=MWMs_Xqxqv7pxToz
watch start at 4:58.
🤓☝️
Dude, maybe read "How to win freinds and influence people" and then start with a geeky "Umm actually". People make mistakes.
yes, they don't want to be called idol, they prefer to call themself 'vocal and dance unit'. something that actually translates to 'idol group' without specifically called idol group. they follow different marketing structure compared to standard mainstream idol group though.
@@roberthradek7100 it's okay to have an opinion. you clearly dismissed that idea
@@phitc4242 and I think you may have a problem with reading comprehension. I did not attack his opinion, but the manner they delivered it.
For me, some songs are hit or miss. I enjoy the experimentation too. But the energy is absolutely there!!!
For me, their jazz influenced first 2 albums with Victor Records is peak Atarashii Gakko. Their songs and choreography there are unhinged and crazier compare to their recent outputs.
it's more like they (the management) want something easier to accept than those 2 albums. the first 2 albums only get better sales after otonablue blow up, and mostly from people outside japan.
agreed. Tokyo Calling is a repetitive boring song. Otonablue is the best.
Yeah, their wild jazzy songs were more interesting. Perhaps I'm just not too fond of the hip hop influence 88Rising brought into their sound
That's definitely the very best era. Now 88Rising just tries to appeal to the Kpop/TikTok masses.
They're also getting older. They can't be bouncing across the stage like they're 15 anymore.
Ive never heard of them, i cant wait to watch more of their stuff 🥺✨️❤ amazing video!
Love them they are literally so amazing their performance are always so amazing
Gotta love 新しい学校のリーダーズ！
Been a fan of AG for years now ... One of the best acts in Japan!
These girls are trailblazers! I've been listening to Atarashii Gakko for a couple of years, and they NEVER fail to deliver! Amazing video btw
I love these girlss i’m so happy they’re getting popular 🥹
I actually love them. Fun to watch. Very theatrical, yet very authentic.
found their music last year and enjoyed it a lot. now after watching their video and learning what they stand for i love them even more! great video! easy sub! 🔥
Can't just be one person to make a difference, has to be a generation willing and spreading a positive message to the change that is desired
my friend is obsessed with atarashii gakko (and i do mean obsessed) so its nice to see more people liking the same thing my friend does
Atarashii Gakko my beloved
The tittle got me pretty good , i thought it was going to be a video about s girl band that ran an underground bussiness and shady stuff behind the scenes. Learning about this idol group is a good refresher to japanese culture and how this band is pushing for change through their music and actions.
im addicted to them, i love thier personalities so much
Nice to see they have a lot of fun
Lol this was a random japanese group i found and now i just loved it
They seem like fun. Genuinely fun to be around and bold. Not just cute, but out there in your face bold.
One of the most amazing thing about Atarashii Gakko is how EFFECTIVELY their energy transfer into you! Their performance and cheerful, yet crazy and energetic personas are HIGHLY contagious!! Just watching them makes my day (and I'm pretty sure a lot of their fans) happy!!! This is just the beginning of AG world domination!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
They are fucking adorable. Thank you for informing me of their existence.
I got to see Atarashiii Gakko live, they’re were amazing.
scariest what? these western reviews are becoming too off and over-reacting.
Fr
japans great when life gets overwhelming there is a special forest you can go nap in lmao
clickbait title. Atarashii Gakko! are the best.
i really love them sm, i used to be a really huge fan around 2019-2021 and i remember they werent too popular at that time, it was kinda hard to find even a spanish fan before or even videos like this and now watching them having the recognition they deserve makes me really happy and proud of thdm because they have a lot of talent and a unique discography in my opinion, and i remember being excited because one of their MV's reached 1M views and now that video reached 14M. even though I dont follow/listen to them as much as before they'll always have a special place in my heart
AG REVOLUTIOOON!!1!1!!!1!1
Thanks putting me on. This is a great recommendation.
I didn't know about them before this video but while I'm not sure about their music as much I like their ideas and it's refreshing to see something like this come out of Japan
Found them randomly some years ago and just been listening to their music just gatta say I like it :)
I found out about them through their release of the koi geba mv (it was still pretty new) I really loved their unique music and whole personality as a group. I hope they'll get more popular that they genuinely deserve :)
I love them so much, they’re coming to Mexico and I’m glad to say IM WATCHING THEEEEEEMMMM
They look like they are having fun, happy to learn about them
great group! great energy and music. really wanted to see them. but they perform at the same evening in the Netherlands as baby metal. and I already bought those tickets :(
I loved their PSA's back in the day. Yeah they are awesome, Pineapple!
Recommendations brought me here and this my 1st video I’m watching from your channel and it’s my current bias:ATARASHII GAKKO!
Great video!
Look up their cover of BEASTIE BOYS INTERGALACTIC! ITS FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
love them
first time hearing abt this group. reminds me of Chai a bit, one of my fav bands who sadly split this year. will have to check out more.
Ahhh you covered AG! That’s it i’m subscribing ✌️😂
I love them so much. They are so contrasting to the usual j-idol world. Their energy is so awesome
I LOVE YOUR VÍDEO, i been listening and watching AG since 2021 and their unique Essence and style is really special and make this group so amazing, your video really show the meaning of group in such a great way! REALLY NICE VIDEO!!
Sorry if i said something wrong, my english kinda sucks!
you're all good I do appreciate it :) theres more to come!
They're great 😊
i love suzuka lmao
They look so fun, imma check em out later. Nice vid man
luv them so muchhh:D
absolutely great and charismatic.
but it's a trend since many years already.
pop music in japan indeed has a number of artists that are very bold and unique.
mostly it's young women, who seek self-expression and they are telling their stories.
try REIRiE, or AiNA the ENDo, or Gacharic Spin.
You have just described ano, too :)
Went and looked the music up and found a release from as recent as 6 months back... Was worth doing, highly recommend
They make great music!
go back 30 years ago...ah the 80...90's?! way to remind me i'm old
Two more groups to look at are SCANDAL and BAND MAID. Scandal first meet in school as well, check out music video for "Shoujo S" (it was used as one of the openings for the anime "Bleach").
I soo love this group!
@Anormie great video! You should really make a video about Momoclo ももいろクローバーZ
They are no way "punky" as Atarashii Gakko...but Momoiro Clover Z, as a group, have a interesting history, a deeply rooted fanbase and has strong links to the type of content on your channel.
im so lonely bro i just want some firends this genuine to hang around, my dream is shattered.
im just so happy to see such light
i found this girl group a few years back and was so surprised how easy to watch their music videos were. its not some crazy good singing, rather its just so easy to digest that makes them enjoyable.
I love them for being so weird and original
I just realized why this popped up on my recommended. I dont onow much about japanese music but i found their tokyo calling song and have been listening to it.
I love atarashii gakko I first learned of them from a captain disillusion video
i've been a fan of atarashii gakko since 2019.. and i've loved them ever since. their music, personalities, friendships and weird but funny behaviour, i love it all! and well.. next month they have a concert in the city i live but.. i can't go since i don't have enough money for it, but, my girls, maybe next time
Makes me happy to see them smiles. At least they are not alone and having a best time in their life, besides you could only live once :)
Love em!
yeah!!! love them. 😁
3:!2 genuinely surprised they made a random clip of them cycling on old bikes in front of Batavia Museum in Jakarta lol
I was with them day 2, or 3 idk when was the first post about them in 88rising? Yeah that day, I was with them starting from that day!
Their wholesome and really difficult too lewd up, just really hope they don't get some skeeze record contract in the future.
Adorable and talented young women who dance to music. Im terrified.
My friend loves this group so I thought I should watch this
I think you got it slightly wrong they supposed be like old gangster girls in 70-80s.. you should look it up “Sukeban” that’s where they got the idea or concept remember this band that started in experimental era like babymetal…
Them and Baby Metal are my favorite rn
The “band boom” is actually called monoculture. Because most media was consumed by most people through the same few avenues. So any musician (or band) that was shown on these mediums they became a focal point of pop culture.
the first time i encountered their video was when they were still around 20k subs. I didnt know what it was about since it just randomly played and it wasnt even a song. tbh i was weirded out
I love atarashi gakko ✨🔥 they're so awesome
This Japanese girl group in particular remind me of those "Sukeban" high school girls from 70s Japan! Just as badass!
The secret of success = Being yourself
And you will attract a lot of hater and at the same time a lot of fans who is resonate with you.
Japan music use to be block from global market, until 7-8 years ago they open up to global market , and alot off they being released on CZcams
Thank you so much for this video! I had no clue who these girls were. You introduced me to their music and its FIRE!!
I am infected now haha You got that Like and Sub homie! A timestamp at 1:50 sums it up so well like you said.
I liked the part where you mentioned JJK
OP has been born a bubble. Atarashi Gakko is back by rising88 same label as Joji and Rich Brian.
They are entertainer love and respect them
They remind me of my childhood when I was in Philippines my friends where lile this
When you asked what kind of music they make for some reason I was thinking of BabyMetal! You can’t go wrong there \m/
