Lol the best part of this was watching y'all have existential debates about what's what and who's who and what came first or whatever during this 🤣🤣. Y'all are so invested it's awesome
1:12:14 Kind of, but that's not even the same strumming pattern as _Jessie's Girl._ It reminds me more of the band Veruca Salt.
Do you think that i'll spend 2 hours of my life to see this?.....
Yes of course!
During Babymetal's first performance of DDM, the guy going crazy on the right side of the stage is the famous "White T-Shirt Guy", who is a legend in the Babymetal community.
The "guy" going crazy during Babymetal is the famous "white tshirt guy". He's actually going crazy through the whole festival. He's a HUGE Suzuka Nakamoto fan, and if you watch him carefully, you'll notice he ONLY looks at Su and tries to follow Su's dance moves. In order to help boost the attendance and get SG noticed, he invited and bought tickets for his friends to attend with him. He still attends Babymetal concerts to this day.
Also masks have ALWAYS been used in Japan for several reasons; pollution, allergies and to stop spreading germs. It's normal there. Lol.
Apparently he was a Karen Girl's fan, and followed Ayami and Su over to the new group when Sakura Gakuin started.
I heard he bought a bunch of tickets for his friends to try and make sure the first Sakura Gakuin performance was a success.
White shirt guy is a legend. The 1st BabyMetal super fan.
That's cool but a bit creepy too.
"Become a super Moa."
"Become a model."
"Becoming an actress and also a model and not only is active in Japan. "
"Become a singer. "
10 years later we have witnessed them becoming the people they want to become.
And the " SAKURA GAKUIN Height Battle" will continue forever... XDDDD
The teacher scolding part actually presents the difference in cultures between East and West. Japan has a perfectionist type of culture and the girls are well aware of that and they take it as normal. But, on the bright side, the girls are not easily offended, instead they take all criticism and scolding as a motivation to improve and perfect their craft. With that in mind, we wouldn't have the BABYMETAL we know today without Sakura Gakuin's rigorous training program. What the teacher said may sound offensive to Western fans, but the JP fans find that normal and thus do not make a big fuss about it.
A friend and I worked on the subtitles for that video! Glad you guys enjoyed it!
Thanks for the awesome work! That brought this image to mind: i.redd.it/o0iwfhip93141.png
We are definitely the Megumi to your Mirena. :)
and the legend of "White T-shirt Guy" is born,
🤘🤘🤘
YES! I just saw him!
Lmao I was just about to write that I'm 2 days late 🤣🤣🤣. That guy is a legend haha
You're ready for the Nendo tests... Obviously start with 2010. 😊
And watch the Nendo tests BEFORE SU's graduation.
Agree
Probably even a good idea to watch the 2012 Introduction Corner videos for some insight before Su's graduation and that year's test. :)
You were probably able to find this on Google afterwards, but yes - Miyoshi Ayaka is indeed quite a well-known fashion model and actor nowadays!
And her fellow "Scooper" Matsui Airi is too. Here's a segment (subbed) they did together at age 18, a few years after leaving SG - czcams.com/video/Gt6apKeOMSQ/video.html
Ayaka Miyoshi is a bad ass and if you've seen Alice in Borderland on Netflix, then that is where you have seen here. If not, check it out. It's awesome.
YES THATS WHERE I KNOW HER FROM!!!!! YESSSSS -MAGZ
Thank you, I was trying to remember the show she is in.
When Sakura Gakuin began, it seemed like Ayaka and Ayami were the ones that Amuse thought was a potential break through. Then the baton club, the heavy music club was probably a surprise break out to Amuse!
Oh my God, that WAS her! Thanks!
35:38 "white t-shirt guy" sighting! That means this is the same show that BABYMETAL debuted "Doki Doki Morning"...in November 2010.
Thank you! 長尺でガッツリ見るやんw 何回見てもニヤけるな〜
I never wanted kids and still don't, but Moa and Yui make me wish they were my kids. Sheesh even from that age Moa was a HAM! "lost 3 teeth was surprisingly ugly" almost killed me. And Super Moa Yaaaaaaaaaay!! I really love how Su said that her ears sticking out is one of her cute traits. Her ears are super cute.
That performance at 42:50 is Babymetal's first performance ever, and that guy that's so into it is known as White Shirt Guy, the kitsune zero, when we were ignorant he already _knew._ :D He's kind of popular now, before concerts people usually gets a photo with him sometimes xD
"the kitsune zero" 🦊🤘
"Kitsune zero"... i like that ! And you are so right , we were ignorant! And for that i am sorry....
What I really like about this is that each girl has their own unique personality and they are not forced to be something they are not they just let them be themselves and not conform to to fit a certain personality, I find that to be so cool
That was 2 hours well spent :-)
Yes it was❤
Long video, short comment.
長時間のリアクションお疲れさまでした。
Su's graduation and Yui and Moa's are guaranteed tear jerkers especially seeing Yui and Moa uncontrollably in tears
Babymetal are going to have to give you free tickets for their next USA shows. 2 hours+ is the kind of dedication to the band that the Fox God appreciates! 🦊🤘🦊🤘
If only! We would love that!
About the girl you think you saw somewhere ( ayaka ) , well you really might have seen her in many many cover of fashion magazine like Vogue or so. She's also a great actress who played in several internationals movies and musicals . she's the one with the most successful carrrier outside japan, exactly like she told she wanted to be in the closing of this documentary. Airi ( the talles one and the very shy ones) became a very famous model in japan like she wanted to, and Ayami ( the litlle one , the president ) did many albums, had her own talkshow. she recently released her last album and continue to follow her dreams. Thanks for this awesome reaction
Nene became a nurse like her mom!
Marina released an album too.
And the original 3 graduates did go on to fulfill their dreams of modeling, acting and singing. Can't help but feel proud of them 👏
FYI, all the graduates have fulfilled their dreams. Airi Matsui is a model and actress, Ayaka Miyoshi is also a model and actress and has starred lead roles in musicals and TV shows. Ayami did some solo idol work but then went abroad to study and has recently returned to singing and recording.
That was fun watching with you guys. Let's do it again!
MiniPati was first formed to teach children a dietary education or cooking. Then it became part of Sakura Gakuin afterwards.
Ayaka Miyoshi, the girl you've been wondering about, stars in a Netflix show called "Alice in Borderland".
The most grown up looking Miyoshi Ayaka is only 1 year older then Su. (well, 1 and a half year.) At 2010~2011 when the video was taken she was 14~15 years old.
The two tallest girl, Miyoshi Ayaka and Matsui Airi alone with former Karen Girl's Mutō Ayami were the 3 "oldest girl" in Sakura Gakuin, all born in 1996. Su was born at the end of 1997.
Ayaka and Airi are now actress, variety show host and model. They have some recent TV drama and movie works.
Ayami struggled a bit as a singer and eventually ran out of contract with the big agency, but she is still trying hard to push her singing career. You can find her work on youtube as Muto Ayami or 武藤彩未.
Airi was just a few days from being a 97 with Su. :)
@@mthsu I have always thought Ayami would have done better in a group as a big part of her charm is her personality and as a solo act she does not really get to show that off
@@chrisharris1522 Yeah, isn't it? I almost think Amuse is not good at doing solo singer. Even though they has so many great actors/actress.
Many idols who ends group career for solo career has a hard hard time. See Yamamoto Sayaka for an example. She was one of the most promising singer in a top group, not that she is doing bad now, but not fully to the expectation. And Sayaka is even a matured grown up and very well prepared. Or Suzuki Airi, too. They had such strong fan base back in the group, but still struggles.
For Ayami's case I kinda think she hits a wall early on after Sakura Gakuin, spiral down a long way at the end of her Amuse career.
Hopefully she can get back step by step.
And well... Being a artist in the independent market is not a bad thing anyway. She has her supporters and is still fighting. That is all matters. Would love to see her do well in the independent market.
@@mthsu Actually, when Ayami debuted as a solo idol her first album ranked 16th on the Oricon list and she was the face of an ice cream brand in Japan (she even has a song and music video for it that played on the ice cream vending machines from this company)
Ayami left the industry not because she ran out of contract, but because she wanted to take some time off from the industry to figure out what she wanted to do in life since she had been active in the entertainment industry from a very young age.
🌸 🏫 I'll take any excuse to rewatch that Sakura Gakuin 'SMILE' documentary, but it was fun watching you watch it.
That's their choreographer and dance sensei MIKIKO at the 23:00 mark and again later in your reaction.
She has zero compunctions about making little girls cry. : )
I've seen worse footage with more crying from later years.
Those were both between performances though, not in the middle.
They often did multiple shows a day.
MIKIKO is well known for her work with Perfume as stage director and choreographer.
She's been working with Su since her Karen Girl's days, and she creates the choreography for BABYMETAL.
She also has her own dance troupe, ELEVENPLAY.
All of the groups had both a club description (like Heavy Music Club) and a name (like BABYMETAL).
The Baton Club was Twinklestars, the Cooking Club was Mini-Pati, the Newspaper Club was Scoopers, etc.
Sakura Gakuin is a school-themed Idol group.
Every member was also attending a real school while they were in Sakura Gakuin.
They don't teach any academic subjects like Math, History or Japanese.
"They don't teach any academic subjects like Math, History or Japanese."
you're wrong about that part, they actually teach those subjects in their own entertaining way.
@@jakemuller8626 Dude. Having a couple of songs with a theme is pretty different from teaching them academically.
@@jakemuller8626 No, sorry to say but you're wrong. They all attend real schools, SG is an school themed idol group, and as Rick said, they may have a "learning series" songs and that's it, SG is not a school.
@@cadiazm Well in a sense it IS a school.... a performing arts school, additional to their conventional school, where these young girls are trained in the entertainment industry.
@@michaelafrancis1361 I see your point, and we can call it a performing arts school. But we're talking about elementary and secondary education here (Rick mentioned academic subjects like Math, History or Japanese), which SG is not, otherwise they wouldn't need to attend another "real" school. I don't think they can present they SG diplomas when they apply to junior high
And... she did become Super Moa. 😍
the way she cheered herself with a "yay!" was incredibly cute!
And now you know why we love SG so much. And the best part was that every year we got new transfer-ins that would charm us all over again. I kept following SG even after Yui and Moa graduated. I always found new favorites to follow. And the music is always the best!
Marina and her spastic energy, Hana's beauty, Nene's goofy personality and laugh. And that's just THIS class. Ooga Saki, who transfers in later is another of my favorites. You think Yui is cute? Ooga , or "Baby-chan" as she'll be nicknamed, is ADORABLE!! And year after year, there was always someone new to charm your socks off. It's sad that it's all ending this year. 😭
You're right about the new transfer could charm you in. I'm currently on 2017 at the SG subreddit page. First was Ayami/Yui, Marina/Yui, Hana, Yamaide, Sara and now Maaya and the girl with glasses really remind me of my niece.
I would love to buy their dvds and watch it with my nieces and nephew, I'm wondering if they have eng subs. They have this certain charm and lessons that can be learn and picked up by kids their age. Especially that Super Lady. I think the principal is right, only maybe because they are ending this year. It could be that someday in the future a cabinet member would be from SG or influence by SG.
What I like most about this video is that it really shows that y'all have truly bought into Babymetal (and their cohorts). There are quite a number of reactors out there that know Babymetal reactions will draw attention to your channel and bring in a nice windfall of likes, comments, and subscribers to help grow it. A lot of those guys showboat and "pander" to the BM fans for the attention. They don't really buy into the band they're watching as much as they buy into the views, likes, comments and subscriptions it gets them. The fact that you're willing to sit through a 2 hour "movie" of this for what will ultimately end up being the same amount of attention as any other 3-5 minute video you could've done for the same result....that shows that y'all have truly bought in, which helps give new meaning to following along with y'all on this journey down the fox hole.
Looking forward to more.
Great reaction , this really shows how hard they all worked so much talent . Su always giving it 120% and Yui and Moa stood out dancing together . But you could see BabyMetal where going to be something special.
🤘🦊🤘❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ get the tissues ready for Su Graduation and the speeches 😭😭
So the mask wearing during the one song, as they were in pajamas, is probably resembling those who wear mask during sleep for the dry air. Air is pretty dry in Japan, some peope wear mask or use a moisture adding machine during sleep to protect the throat etc. Their singers often do that during sleep to prevent dry air affecting their singing.
Also, people with hay fever often wear mask in Japan, too. So that is always a much ordinary thing to do in Japan. There are also people who wear mask just to not wear makeups etc. It's a different culture where you don't have to be very ill to wear a mask. The mindset behind mask is different.
Oh that's so true...i watched a short doc on youtube about a cosplay model and she would wear a mask when she had to go out in public on the way to a modeling job because she wasn't wearing any makeup.
@@emb5091 I think that is common in Korea also
2時間もよく見たな。もう二人は立派な父兄さん(笑)
🤘🦊💮
38:54 Yui said, "If I were to be born again I wanna be fairy.”
Wow😲 So it was their first Doki Doki Morning ! I've just witnessed it at Budokan 2021 this Monday. It gets better and better !🤩
Three of the graduates have been active since then.
Muto Ayami has been active as a solo singer. She recently released a new song.
Miyoshi Ayaka played a leading role in a musical movie. She is also popular as a model.
Matsui Airi was active as a model. She has appeared in many movies and TV dramas as an actress.
They have benefited from what they have learned at Sakura Gakuin.
BTW: did you notice something with the dance that starts at 46:13? Moa's shirt has hearts and Yui's has a skull on it. Now look at the Babymetal-logo ...
I love the Sakura Gakuin's Songs from 2017 - 2021
Second live show. Babymetal only had one single in 2010, Doki Doki Morning, their second single was the Kiba of Akiba collaboration Animation With You. Ijime Dame Zettai was performed at this live show although it wasn't officially released as a single until 2013. At this time (2011) they only had 3 songs (DDM, Iine, IDZ)and one wasn't even released yet, but performed at this show nonetheless.
2010-2011 was a really talented class
Takeaways-
Yui's dancing was very precise right from the start
Su's energenic, but slightly awkward dancing was adorable.
When Moa was small, her dimples took up half her face!
Who else can make you smile from ear to ear for two hours straight? I was dying for 2h lols! Good Job! And YES, Su stands out, even within these awefully talented girls you can always spot her and hear her. So no wonder, she made this whole thing famous.
I have a lot to say about this. The 12 girls in this video represent only 1/3 of the 36 super talented and adorable girls who have performed with Sakura Gakuin since 2010. If you choose to continue with this, you will discover many wonderful girls to fall in love with long after the three members of BabyMetal have moved on. Ayaka Miyoshi looks familiar because she is a top model who has appeared in many movies and television shows. If you think she also reminds you of somebody else, so do I. Ayaka always makes me think of a younger version of Band Maid's lead singer Saiki Atsumi. During Ayaka's stint with Sakura Gakuin she often exuded Saiki's ice princess persona. She was the coolest girl in class and she new it. Most of the other girls in this video have also achieved varying degrees of success in show business, as singers, dancers, models, and acting in television, movies, commercials, anime, and live theatre. Remember, all of these girls are still quite young. and have bright futures ahead of them in whatever they choose to pursue in life. Just earlier this month, Marina Horiuchi (the girl who passed her Mini-Pati scarf on to Yui) released her first solo CD. The Sakura Gakuin clubs, or sub-units, have changed members many times through the years, and over time new clubs were added as well. While many would argue that the quality of Sakura Gakuin has never declined, and although I think all who have followed are outstanding, I still feel that this original group will always be the best. If you continue reacting to Sakura Gkuin, a must are the Nendo Test videos. They are hilarious, will teach so much about the various girls, and show you just how fiercely competitive they all are. If you want to cry, then seek out the graduation videos. These feature the younger girls saying farewell to the older ones who are departing from Sakura Gakuin. Be warned though, these videos have been known to reduce grown, metal-hardened men to pretending that ninjas are chopping onions behind them.
1:48:50
-Raura : Challenging Su's dominance
-Su: (Death glare) Omae wa mou shindeiru
伝説のWhite T-shirtを見てしまったんだ!もう立派な父兄ですね🌸
About Mini Pati, yes two of the three girls in the video, Marina and Raura, along with Nene were the first iteration of Mini-Pati before and during the first year of SG. They passed on their cooking scarfs to Moa, Yui, and Hana in a ceremony skit before the next class and they became Mini-Pati. Later Moa, Yui, and Hana, transferred their chefs scarfs to new girls. And so on and so on. Same with the other clubs.
Weren't there only three generations of Mini Pati?
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu yes. Momoko, Marin, and Aiko were the 3rd iteration.
Yeah, I know, but your original comment implied that it continued on after the third generation when I'm pretty sure it didn't. Mini Patti shut down in 2018, so there was no "and so on and so on."
@@PaleHorseShabuShabu OH! I meant for the other sub units. I guess I worded that wrong
this is super rare video for me, i love it!.. everytime i see MOA i can't help but to smile always, she's definitely super moa that turn into a beautiful angel 🤘😎🤘
14:00 LVT Q I don't understand why they do that?
A: At the time and still nowadays, idols follow the famous Idol Group AKB48's formula known as "idols that you can meet". Thus when Miyoshi Ayaka makes the dog imitation it makes her more personal especially in front of the fans (not suit and ties).
Just to clarify the situation, LVT ....... you WILL watch Suzukas Graduation speech+ Moas speech to Su and the graduation toss to finish.
LVT will cry , so don’t wear eye makeup.
Love your new release to by the way. ✌️.
🦊🦊🦊
Glad to see you two diving deeper into Sakura Gakuin I've watched this video a couple of times first was 2015
Airi Matsui, the shy girl you think you've seen somewhere before, is an actress and model in Japan. She's been in several films and TV shows, morning shows, spokesperson/model for Ghana Chocolates, and other modeling jobs in Japan.
i think he was asking about Ayaka Miyoshi.
@@jakemuller8626 well shit... her too! 🤣🤣🤣
Holy sh*t! 2 hours? wow!
Thank you for the reaction of the blockbuster work.
When we chase after Babymetal in this way, we remember the other members of Sakura Gakuin and fall into the swamp as it is.
This is the BEST reaction to Sakura Gakuin on the History!!!
Super Moa to MOAMETAL best Metal
BABYMETAL FOREVER
🤘🤘🤘
All hail The Fox God
From all those many different club... i'm very proud of my music taste.. metal club still exist until now if you realize that... and i hope it will be forever... get up metal!!! Put your Kitsune up!!!
It's always fun seeing the start of SG. The small, rag tag, and somewhat clumsy club of girls they were then, compared to the perfected, well oiled machine of recent years
Exactly this!
Later sg line ups would make the 2011 members look like amatures. But even so, these girls laid the foundation for the sg.
@@batteriesnotincluded4734 It's not so much the girls as it is the support and infrastructure around the girls that evolved. They did lay the foundations and that was them working hard to clear a path in an unexplored jungle. They had to figure out many things by themselves while the newer girls can work upon the progress that was made before.
@@Zedem0n absolutely, each generation has taught the next, that’s why it is so sad to see it end. I really like this years class there are some real characters, Yume and Sana are my favourites, it would have been awesome if Yume’s little sister could have become a member too
44:40 LVT What's happening?
Q: This group is called the Go Home Club (aka no club activities after school student in Japan). They wore mask here as if they were sick at home. Japanese wore mask to prevent others from getting sick if they are ill. A culture not to inconvenience others.
While no culture is anywhere near perfect, this last year has shown that a lot of people could sure learn some important lessons from the Japanese when it comes to being considerate in public. It couldn't completely mitigate the effects, but it sure could have been waaaay worse if they'd behaved like some other countries.
Yui and Moa were 10 when they joined SG.
If you look at Moa and Yui's black shirts for the dance number starting around minute 46 you'll see 2 of the emblems used in the BabyMetal flag. Yui's little skull thingie and Moa's hearts. The wings are from Su's time with Karen Girls.
The legend of white t shirt guy lives on!!!!!!
Whoa two hours! A lot of these girls are still in showbiz today, some have left the life. It's ok to have a fav Hana Taguchi is one of mine
LVT needs to cry?? Yeah Sakura Gakuin Friends Unplugged.
Magz & LVT for every Babymetal & Sakura Gakuin reaction, great combo 👍
Great reaction guys, thank you so much!
Wow, another video I thought I'd never see on CZcams. A few years ago this documentary was almost "hunted" by AMUSE and deleted everywhere it was found, regardless of the platform it was uploaded to.
Japanese idol groups always introduce themselves in shows and thank the audience for coming and listening, however short their time slot. A lot of them have chatch phrases and the like when there's time to introduce all members one by one, for example Moa always said "Motto mo ai wo taisetsu ni" ("cherish love the most"). It's what her parents wanted to convey with her name, which is written with the Kanji of "most" and "love" so she made it her catch phrase.
The strictness of the teachers and members on themselves is a part of Japanese culture. Teachers at school who oversee clubs that get to perform in competitions are the same (as are the members if they're doing it seriously). If you don't at least try to do it perfectly you shouldn't do it at all. Japan is an "only the strong survive" society, so if you're not up to whatever you (want to) do, you get left behind and either need to work twice as hard or quit. It's a normal thing in Japan they often get taught from early childhood on, so they're used to it and use it as motivation if it's something like in this video here.
It's probably a personal thing, but the more you watch of SG the less you think about "ah, these are the BM girls". I discovered them through BM, but only Moa makes my top 5 SG girls list these days. Mainly because it's way easier to follow the members after 2015 and get to know their personalities from their weekly shows.
To the songwriting you mention at around 7:20, some member(s) said that the songwriters took notes members wrote and used the general "feeling" conveyed in them for lyrics of some songs. But the members actively wrote the lyrics to the song Sakura Hyakunin Isshu. There's a special on a DVD that shows the lesson(s) they held to write them.
Ayaka Miyoshi has a fairly big role in one of the most succesful Asian Netflix shows of all time, Alice in Borderland, maybe that's where you recognize her from. She has also starred in some other nationwide released movies, like Leaving on the 15th spring in 2013, Dance with Me in 2019 and Daughters in 2020. She's also a pretty succesful model, together with the other tall girl in the video, Matsui Airi. They both did and do commercials and billboards for some of the world's biggest fashion brands (Dior, Gucci, etc). So both of their dreams certainly came true. Ayaka also was the first to have an "attitude" at the beginning, didn't do everything blindly she was told and talked back to Mori-sensei (their on-screen teacher). Nowadays the talking back part is fairly normal and makes for a lot of entertaining moments.
I think, what Yui Mizuno means when she made her statement of leaving BABYMETAL is: "Please, see me as a person", who I am, an unique, inimitable personality - not only as an artificial construct ! Since at least this documentation, all Yui Mizuno fans can say : YES, WE DO !
I think you're right. While the persona is fun, it's also important to appreciate the person beyond that. :)
Up until Yui (The movie star) joined Sakura Gakuin she had sold more cars than you've had hot dinners,
The first three rows of the theatre are reserved for family and friends, most of whom helped the girls train at home, that's why they appear to know the songs and dance steps on Sakura Gakuin's first performance.
i've been watching this group since 2015 and it always been a fun thing that they keep make me laugh a lot, smile a lot, and cry a lot.
still a depressing fact that they have to be disbanded on the next august :(
46:16 they are dancing to the mixed version of Lucky star anime opening song
That was a great Sakura Gakuin documentary video, but what made it super-great is watching it with you guys, you guys are awesome - all the best, guys! Cheers!
(and kudos for watching it straight for 2hr!!)
2 hours!? lets gooo
i really waiting the su's graduation reaction of you guys! 🦊🤘
Thank you so much for doing this reaction. Not a lot of reactors, even ones that are fans of Babymetal would sit through this documentary. It really shows that you guys have grown to love the group and it’s awesome you’re starting to explore Sakura Gakuin as well. Keep up the fantastic work! If you guys haven’t yet, check out Alice in Borderland on Netflix. Ayaka Miyoshi, the girl you instantly picked out to be the eldest has a role in it and appears in several episodes.
We do!
Congratulations on reaching the 7th circle of the Fox Hole! Before you know it you will be taking Japanese courses because it will allow you to know more about the girls and you'll also get a 2nd job to help pay for all your Sakura Gakuin merch. Seriously though I wish I could have been there with you to answer all your questions. All I'll say though is that the further down the fox hole you go the more fun you'll have. Remember, Sakura Gakuin celebrated their 10th anniversary last year, just like Babymetal and this documentary only covered their first 2 years. There have been 36 Sakura Gakuin members and the oldest (Ayami) will be 25 next month. There is more than enough music, concerts and behind the scenes footage to keep you smiling for many years.
And Ayami definitely has some birthday company this month from Sakura Gakuin graduates. :D
Megumi Okada = April 4 (19)
Raura Iida = April 9 (23)
Saki Ooga = April 11 (21, I'm still getting used to the fact that Baby-chan is Adult-chan)
Ayami Mutou and Marina Horiuchi = April 29 (25 and 23)
Great reaction, I respect you. In Sakura Gakuin, A few members has graduated and new ones has come every year. Sa-Gaku unfortunately will be closed soon. Recently it is also good, but I like them during 2010-2014. Every members are distinctive and talented, have high consciousness. Besides Su-, Yui, and Moa, Mutou and Horiuchi are now singers, Miyoshi, Matsui, and Iida are now actors or models, Satou is a voice actor and so on. Sa-Gaku seems not to be the most popular idol group in the domestic Japan, but has unique concept and high level. In Japan, high talented idols are not liked so much, but fragile or uncompleted feeling idols liked.
The way Moa and Yui came in for the first introduction, can't help but smile while I melt!! And I just came from listening to Cannibal Corpse's Evisceration Plague :D
Wow you really did the whole documentary, this will be a great video. I just watched it 2 days ago and now I will watch it again with your reaction.
The first 3 girls were the first seniors, though juniors at the time.
57:10 they are both models in Japan and Ayaka is on Netflix in a show named "Alice in Borderland" as an actor
You're heroes, guys.) Thank's a lot!
I enjoyed spending the 2+ hours y'all put into this reaction. It is truly amazing what these young ladies went through in just their first 2 years with SG. I'm glad they persevered and made a foundation for the following classes. It's a shame it comes to an end in August.... Thankfully there are hours and hours of video...
Did you notice when they do the group dance and Yui & Moa have on black tee shirts Yui has a skull and Moa the hearts? That is replicated in the BM logo.
I was going through the comments wondering if anybody was going to point this out
Also Japan has pretty good air quality tbh. They wear masks if they're sick. I've heard they'll wear them if their makeup isn't set up fully yet though lol. Also frickin white t shirt guy is legend 🤣🤣. Legend has it he's the original Babymetal fan lmao
28:30 Yui, Hana and Moa were Mini-Pati 2nd generation .... 1st generation were Nene, Marina and Raura
53:38
Don't mind me, just personal timestamp.
Anyway, it's time for Nendo test, i see where it'll going to be. lol
really happy that they genuinely enjoy sg
Wanna get her to cry? Watch the graduation speeches!! 2011-2014, total feels fest!!
This is something that must happen!
Heeey! At 35:54, it’s the legendary White T-Shirt Guy! He knows and does all the choreos along with the girls- huge fan.💪🏻🤘🏻
He's such a big fan that even he has fans. :D
15:10 LVT Q: You probably shouldn't say that i am probaly not very good?
A: Matsui Airi like Miyoshi Ayaka was aiming to be an actress but unlike Ayaka she was never trained nor an experienced singer nor dancer. So she was honest and you can see her struggle during her time in SG in their DVD (like doing school theme activities like singing, dancing, song writing etc.). Even she admitted her SG time was hard but nowadays says she remembers it fondly,
Most epic reaction video ever!
SG OG Super Ladies!
How do I buy a reaction on this channel?
Always more Babymetal forever! :) 👍🦊❤️

Nice you guys did it......Team Ayami & Nene
Thanks for doing this, it was surprisingly blocked in my country so I had to use a VPN (greetings from the Czech Republic lol) When they were being scolded, by I assume Mikiko, please remember this is a professional group, they all have contracts and are being paid, so kind of think of it as like a pro sports team, if you are playing bad the coach will tell you so in order to get you to lift your game. The Idol business in Japan is ferociously competitive and success depends on building a fanbase. I hope now all the little bits of information about how SG is important in understanding Babymetal now make more sense, it is kind of hard to get reactors to understand how it all fits together and even more difficult to get them to watch.
More reactions to Sakura Gakuin's Songs please!
Wow 2hours I looked back twice . You are guys amazing. lol
I`ts high noon in japan.
congratulations, excellent react video, i love the way you both guys only focuses in Moa, Yui and Suzuka but eventually you started to notice the other girls
Great Documentary! Had'nt seen this one before. It was great to recently read a translation of Yui's recent interview for the SG Memory Book. She had very fond memories of her time in the band. It brought a tear to the eye just to hear something from her after three years of silence. You will find this on the babymetal news page.
I think it’s time for Su graduation
@1:18:32 "You can literally pick Su out of the entire crowd." Koba -Metal would agree.
the level of cuteness in this video is insane! kawaii^^
20:05 yes MAGZ ... Hinata is awesome. It is hard to choose but she is one of my favorites beside Yui
Yes you may have different favorites. IIda Raura and Sugisaki Nene are mine. Nene is the only one in the original 10 that isn't in the business anymore. She followed her mothers footsteps and became a nurse.
