They offically announced Number_i as a group on the 15 oct 2023. That's why the elevator number is 1015.
They already performed that full song live at CDTV yesterday
They performed this live already!? I'm going to have to watch it, good looking out for letting me know!
i'm a Number_i fan even around the time they were in their previous group and have been making reaction videos from a fan's perspective for years. it's nice to know that more and more people are discovering them and reviewing their performances from a non-fan perspective. couldn't be prouder of these guys. ❤️💙💜
Bonsai is a miniature plant that is supposed to be tended and shifted by the owner. These 3 guys used to be idols but left the abusive entertainment management. So they are saying they are as a group, a bonsai, a group of tensai (geniuses--kind of rhyming), as wanderers who choose their own path and in charge of shifting their being (the plant, bonsai).
Bon is also a sound of something hitting or flower blossoming. Also, bon-odori is the Japanese traditional dance form among common people.
1015 /october 15th is the day group united.
Thank you for watching and reaction to BON by Number_i🤍
Thank you very much for your reaction!!!
Thank you for your reaction.
BON, so much coolness in another dimension!
BON was produced by Sho Hirano of Number_i. Sho has also participated the arrangement and choreography. This song was created with Japan strongly in mind.
This song has many modulations and incorporates traditional Japanese music.
The lyrics are also excellent, meaningful, and piercing.There are many metaphors for BON.
Those who see BON, a fusion of Japanese taste and hip-hop, will be overwhelmed!
As you know BON means BONSAI=Japanese dwarf pot plants.
Bonsai care methods include wrapping wire (harigane-針金) around the trunk and branches to shape and prune them. This is a metaphor for the relationship between Number_i and their fans, bonsai and wire. It can be taken as expression of love for the fans.
I hope you will keep an eye on Number_i!
Love to see you thoroughly enjoyed this MV! BON is my favorite and epic, definitely!
Thank you for your kind words. 😊
Thanks for the BON reaction.Please comment on the official Number_i CZcams page as well.I think more and more people will come to see the show.
Thank you for your reaction.
I really enjoyed it😊
1015 means October 15th, I think. They debuted as Number_i on October 15th, 2023.
They haven't got fandom name yet.
Bonsai has at least two meanings.
1. 盆栽:The plant, as you know
2. 凡才:Not genius
They are two completely different words.
So, they are saying that we are genius but at the same time, we are ordinary people.
Thank you❤️
Listening to this song makes me feel cool.
Please spread Bon a lot!
Thank you for reacting to BON!
I'm looking forward to your next reaction video to Number_i!
Thx for your reaction! 😊 BON is my favorite song of 2024 followed by GOAT this far. The guy in blond, Sho Hirano produced this song. The use of various traditional Japanese instruments adds unique originality to the track! The music and the dance blew my mind and the MV in of itself is also awesomely creative, full of different references and homage to Japanese pop-culture from different eras. The first half of the video was more like cyber punk or RPG SciFi video game and the latter half was more retro-pop and trippy. When you get a chance, plz check out their other songs like OK Complex or Square One. 😀
Great Choice “A”. Loved seeing them all I know is they performed with Jackson Wang at Coachella this year. It’s a unique sound but it’s catchy …the choreography is fire 🔥 though. 🙆🏻♀️🎼🎶🕺🏻🙌🏽
I didn't get to see 88rising stage for Coachella when it was live. I watched them performed on a fancam but the audio wasn't to good. I do like their choreography for sure!
Thanks for the reaction!
They were so proud of their Japaneseness!
The music video here reached #2 on the global charts.
We are looking forward to your reactions again!
I'm glad they're getting recognition on the charts cause this song hits for real!
Number_i❤🔥
thank you
Thank you ♡
Thank you for BON's reaction video. 😄
Thank You❤❤❤
Thanks!!!
If you like this, you must see Ballistik Boyz - Higher EX. They spit the FIRE!!!
It was so fun to see your reactions and I was excited too. The consideration of elevators is particularly interesting.
In addition to "potted plant," the Japanese word pronounced "bonsai" also has the word "person who is not a genius." Just the part pronounced ``bon'' can also mean ``tray,'' ``not special,'' or the sound of something exploding.
You pronounces "Bonsai" with ¨za¨ in English but the pronunciation in Japanese is "Bonsai" with ´sa¨, like ¨silence¨.
THANK YOU!!!^______^
love it!
Thank you for watching and your reaction!!
Number_i's BON reached #2 in the world on CZcams's Daily Charts. Their latest song BON is truly unique and expresses Japanese culture through music.
