BABYMETAL 'MEGITSUNE' Music Video Reaction! CRAZY!! 

Great reaction, thanks! "Megitsune" is one of their most loved songs by fans and their most played live one (up to 277 tines to be exact... and counting!). It's also one of my top favorite songs. It was released in June 2013. Su-metal was 15 years old while Yuimetal and Moametal were both 13 (about to turn 14) back then. The style sub-genre is called electronicore, a mix between electronica and metalcore with a hardcore style breakdown. The word "Megitsune" = "me" + "kitsune" which means female + fox so, vixen. Hence the "kitsune" masks everywhere. In the Japanese folklore, the kitsune is an entity which is able to transfigure into a human form, mainly into the form of a young lady, with the objective to deceive men and cause them pain. So they sing that they aren't kitsunes but megitsunes, "pure-hearted maiden-like female foxes". BABYMETAL fans are known as "The ONE" collectively and "kitsune" / "megitsune" individually. So you can tell this song is important! And I'm sure you have seen our 🦊 emojis on comments. That breakdown hits hard and besides the pig squeals, the melody is from a Japanese folk song called "Sakura Sakura" (Cherry Blossoms). It took 36 demos to Takehiro Mamiya best known as Yuyoyuppe (or Yuppemetal), the song's arranger, until Kobametal (their producer) was 100% happy with the final result. It may sound crazy but this is why "Megitsune" is one of their best songs (if not the best). In my opinion, this music video is a masterpiece. And about its locations: - The stage where they are performing is called Nohgakudo at Asagaya Shinmei-gu Shrine in Tokyo. This is a stage where music and dances are performed during festivals. - The shrine right before the breakdown with the orange-ish torii gates is the famous Fushimi Inari-taisha in Kyoto. The girls were so happy that the director traveled to Kyoto just to film that sequence. Until next time! 🤘🦊

_Sore!_ 🦊🤘🔥 Glad to see you're back with this suggestion, they were quite young in this one but wait to see Doki Doki Morning or Iine!!, you can enjoy this song with the live sound of the Kami Band at Budokan 2014 or Budokan 2021 with the new formation. Fans were enjoying and having so much fun watching this live every night at Sabaton's Europe Tour and later at Asian and Australian Tour, and The Babyklok Tour in the US, they also got another Europe headline tour this month, you don't wanna miss the chance to see them live and performing this song like they did recently in all these concerts, we always love the shanenigans when performing live between the girls in the middle section after the breakdown. This was released in 2013 when having around 13/14 (Yui and MoaMetal )and 15 yo (SuMetal, the lead singer), so is one of their early hits and is full of japanese elements, like the "shamizen", a japanese traditional instrument, and is a party festival song (matsuri). "Sore" "seiya" and "soya" are typical shouts among Japanese festival and it works like a "c'mon!" or "let's go" for them. During the breakdown you can hear another typical japanese folk song called "Sakura Sakura" and they're doing a traditional Japanese dance. In summary, song is about female empowerment and if you follow the lyrics you'll see about it, "Megitsune" means female fox (vixen) and they talk about women acting with a smile in their face while crying inside, just to fit in society or what is expected from them, when they're kind to you they're not trying to make falling in love with them, they're just being their own way, and men tend to confuse and think they're cheating or deceiving like the mythological fox. "Megitsune" used to be a peyorative term in Japanese culture, pretty much just like around the world, but BM is using this as a way to empower women despite the meaning itself. When SuMetal is pulling out the "tanto" she's saying "maidens shouldn't be underestimated", that refers to a japanese mob film about some boss mafia daughter before attacking someone. During live performance she does something different and looks really cool doing it. Megitsune is a quintessential BM song and among top ranking songs by fans, SuMetal said she didn't mastered yet, that's why she used to sound check with this song before live concerts. The origin of the "fox sign" is really long to explained but here's a short summary: The Fox God (Kitsune Sama) is the Metal God who sent these girls (and Kami Band after to help them with the metal sound) to unify the world and set them free from Jpop slavery. The kitsune sign came out by accident around the time they created the group by the girls when trying to imitate the typical metal horn sign they noticed it was similar when doing fox shadow shape, they implemented this as part of the lore, imagery, theme and live concerts, the lore is huge so take your time and keep digging and riding the Foxhole 🦊🤘 Btw they praised for real and made a ritual to the Fox God for this song to be a hit and successful, and thanks to the Fox God this is one of their major hits and favorite BM fan songs. -NotACult- 👀 This is a song with the arrangements by YuppeMetal, he took inspiration from "Memphis May Fire - The Sinner" for the drum section, another song that i recommend you for your own time if you want. Next suggestion: - Ijime, Dame, Zettai live at Sonisphere Festival 2014. See you next time. 🦊🤘🔥

I love their early stuff the most. Just joyfully insane.

You should watch "Doki Doki Morning", that's Babymetal very first MV ever! And its a historical moment, because that was the very first "Kawaii Metal" music video in human history!!! 🤘🦊🤘

Great reaction to a great song. I'm so happy that I can finally support these wonderful young women live in Cologne again in a few days. Please keep up the good work. Forever THE ONE 🤗❤🤘🦊🤘

I like this MV because it gives more insight into their message. I also learn so much from the comments from the fan base: for instance, one pointed out how at the beginning YUI and MOA pull on SU’s Japanese costume and the next scene she is transformed into SU-METAL. 🦊 🖖❤

This is a great song live!

I like when reactors start off their Megitsune journey with the MV, because it doesn't spoil the awesome breakdown like the live versions do.

Great reaction! Thanks! 🤘🦊🤘

Great reaction! May FoxGod bless you🤘🦊♪

Definitely time you watch the Babymetal guide to see where it all came from. BTW life performances of Megitsune are always HYPE. Greets from Germany.

Great reaction - and good job with the pronunciation. The masks are all Fox masks (still no wolves here). Megitsune even translates as female fox or vixen. You've had all the explanations already so I won't repeat everything. This was from 2013 - they were talented from the start and the whole concept was formed around Su-metal's vocal talents .... earlier songs include: 'Doki Doki Morning' 'Iine' (that is iine pronounced ee-neh) 'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' (call it IDZ if it is easier) 'Headbanger' 'Uki Uki Midnight'

🔥🦊🔥

Great reaction! Fun fact: this song had been played live by Babymetal over 300 times to date. Definitely one of their staple songs and a fan favorite. A lot of their live performances also has audience engagement sections built in during the extended breakdown section. Look forward to more! 🤘🦊

If you think they're young here watch the 'Doki Doki Morning' music video. It was filmed in Oct 2011. The song was recorded Oct 2010. Doki Doki is Onamonapia (spelling) word that sounds like what it is. It is a heartbeat doki doki. It means exciting. There are a lot of those in Japanese. Like Mogu Mogu is chewing. So Doki Doki Morning is exciting morning.

this song hooked me. :) they just keep growing better. Check out Doki doki morning and iine :)

This is one of their best songs, hope i'll hear it live one day 😁

BABYMETAL live show Road Of Resistance(Mosh Pit) Megitsune, Give Me Chocolate, Head Banger, Legend Of 1979, GJ, KARATE(MV)

It is perfect that your pronunciation of the song title. This song, Gimme Choco!, and Road of Resistance or something are now classic songs of BABYMETAL. BM played them at the recent NEX_Fest in Makuhari, Chiba (Tokyo), Japan too and I was there but I almost died from moshing and couldn't listen to it properly, lol. BM'll be touring EU & UK soon. Thank you from Japan!

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🦊 ⛩ [MOA] SU-METAL will slash you. Really. [YUI] Yeah. [SU] (laughs) (Megitsune video commentary from the BABYMETAL members) You were pretty close on the pronunciation of the song title. They spell it out, but unfortunately in katakana: メギツネ. It's "Meh-gee-tsoo-neh". Su was 15. Yui and Moa were 13, almost 14 when the music video was released. Even though they were wearing white robes, this was not the Kami Band. The performers pretending to play the traditional Japanese instruments in this video are dancers with the Movement Design group. Chidori Yakumo is their director. She is the woman performing the fan dance during the breakdown. Megitsune is my jam. It's still my favorite BABYMETAL song, video and choreography. Definitely quintessential BABYMETAL. Like their new song 'Metali' (メタり！！) you could even call this Kawaii Festival Metal. BABYMETAL's producer Koba sent this song back to the song arranger Yuyoyuppe dozens of times before he was satisfied with it. This one consistently tops fan polls, and has been performed live more than any other BABYMETAL song. Much of the video was shot on location on a Noh drama stage by the Asagaya Shinmei Shrine in Tokyo. This has since become something of a pilgrimmage site for BABYMETAL fans.

This is the first Babymetal song I heard. It immediately got me hooked on Babymetal. Travelling from Malta to Munich in a few days' time to see them live. 🤘🦊🤘

Amazing how professional at a young age they were . Live Megitsune is great as always 😁🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼

This song and pa pa ya live are their best workout songs haha

This song is a masterpiece!

Great reaction! Have liked BabyMetal for long time. They lead me to other Japanese bands one of them being Nemophila which does a fun cover of this. Another cool live BabyMetal song to check out is Ijime, Dame, Zettai live at Sonisphere 2014. It was there first big concert outside of Japan. It was there big breakout into the international metal scene. Supposedly they were going to appear on a smaller stage but got switch to main stage. People were there to see METALLICA, IRON MAIDEN, SLAYER and more and up comes BabyMetal. By the end of the show they had the crowd cheering for more and they were the surprise talk of the festival. Very cool anti bullying song and the solo section is sick! You will dig it.

absolutely amazing 😍🤩

it's a fox mask. Megitsune is a female fox. Look up Japanese mythology of a god that disguises itself as a fox. The song is about how girls/women grow up/get through the world. It's about girl-power.

this is BEAUTIFUL...... i feel like i am understanding metal for the first time.. strangely. the whole composition, the energy, choreography, drums, rhythm, intensity..... just beautiful. I am shocked.

Pretty amazing it eh? Incredible talent and an amazingly great group. Crazy thing is they just keep getting better.

Great react again Kitsune! The number 5 in my top 10. Simply and absolutely amazing!! You need watch this song live! See you!!

babymetals mask is the fox god and the wolf pack is lovebites

😆😆😆🤟🤟🤟🦊

🤘🦊🤘

From the outside, it just looks like any normal shrine with a sizeable stone torii gate but just a short walk beyond that is the main filming location for the ‘ Megitsune ‘ (2013) music video.The Noh Hall is used for various traditional performing arts, festivals and a Babymetal video! The three girls and the band perform the song on stage with the modern impression of bonsai pictured on the wooden panel behind them. This part of the shrine complex is not open every day so please be aware of that should you wish to see it in all its glory. Sunday seems to be the best bet for when it is open for public viewing. This is one of the “Ten Shrines Of Tokyo‘ which are considered the most important as they were selected in 1868 by Emperor Meiji after he had moved to Edo and renamed it Tokyo. The beautiful red torii gates also featured in ‘Tokyo Pop‘ (1988) and they are proof that you really don’t need to go to Kyoto to see such an image!

I am 75 years old so I can imagine how their grandfathers feel seeing them grow.

Thank you for your great reaction🦊🤘 It gave me joy and excitement❤️‍🔥

Great reaction mate :)))

🍅💀🍅 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 Sore ! Sore ! Sore ! SoreSoreSoreSore!! !!!

Это песня, в которой говорится о силе и мужестве женщин, а метафорой служит традиционная фигура кицунэ в лисьей маске. Песня призывает женщин быть самими собой и быть сильными, несмотря на любые трудности, с которыми они могут столкнуться. В тексте песни также подчеркивается, что в жизни женщин есть радость, даже когда они сталкиваются с трудными решениями и моментами грусти. Уникальная и жизнерадостная мелодия отражает радостный акт преодоления границ и возвышения над трудностями, когда рассказчик говорит женщинам сиять и показать миру, на что они способны. К концу песни рассказчик призывает женщин быть самими собой и принять свою подлинную сущность, повторяя припев: "Kitsune janai! Kitsune ja nai! Otome na Megitsune!" ("Ты не кицунэ, ты не кицунэ! Ты дева Мегицунэ!")

🤘🦊🆙

One of the most perfect songs ever. 🤘🦊🤘

Hold on tight bro...😈

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘this first time i saw /heard this group was the "Headbanger" legend show vid i had no clue what to think of them now however after seeing them live in NYC and following them for about two years have become one of my favorite bands i looked through your vid list and i have a suggestion for you "Gacharic Spin" another all girl group from Japan that absolutely defies any genre label they mix metal ,hard rock, funk, jazz and jpop sometimes all in one song i recommend you start with the song "Mindset" do the official vid first then if you want do the live version just to see that frak yes they can do that live

Two things - if you want and can, react to live version of this song. Its entirely different beast with the audience engaged. Also a side note: I've been trying to engage other youtuber to react to a song and hope you could be the first one - Skyfire - Dimension Unseen - it's one of the most melodic death metals I've ever heard. Its a song by Sweeding group dating back in 1995 (still active) and the song is from 2001. It has one hell of a solo in the middle.

The Fox God is Babymetal's patron deity and so you'll see lots of foxes in Babymetal's imagery. The Megitsune lyrics draw parallels with the traits of foxes in Japanese myths and the traditional way Japanese women (and maybe all women) have to behave in patriarchal societies. If I had to choose one song to sum up BM's soul it would be Megitsune. BM's path to today has not been entirely straight; the third album wasn't Kobayashi's best work and it took them a long time to recover from Yui leaving and the death of their lead guitarist, Mikio Fujioka. Actually, the Kami Band hasn't really recovered because their integration into the performances has changed and they now wear masks, which I will always dislike. But they are back touring with a new member, Momoko, and the latest album, The One, has some great songs on it. Megitsune, or vixen, is an early Babymetal song released in 2013, so Su will be 15 in the video and Moa and Yui are 13, and it is one of BM's female empowerment songs. The temple and the Japanese instruments sets a very traditional tone, but right from the start old Japanese values are challenged as Yui and Moa pull on Su's obi (sash) to release her from her kimono so she can do the high leg lift dance. That dance contrasts with the traditional restrained dance in the break down. That break down is a very old song called "Sakura, Sakura" and is about the cherry blossom, but BM even subvert that and Su sing's "kitsune, kitsune" (fox, fox). This is also a call back to their parent idol group which is Sakura Gakuin or Cherry Blossom Academy. In Japan the fox is seen as a clever shape shifter and the lyrics liken women to female foxes in the way they have to change themselves to please others or to hide their true feelings. In the dance BM mime wearing a mask and also putting on make up as another way to hide themselves. But the strength of women is emphasized and the expression of this peaks when Su shouts: "Otome wa nametara ikan zeyo" and draws a knife from her microphone. The phrase is translated as "Maidens shouldn’t be underestimated" (credit Du-metal), although that is a polite interpretation. It's also used in a famous Japanese gangster film called Onimasa and is translated there as " don't you sh*t with me". Some of BM's lyrics can be quite shocking to Japanese audiences and native speakers say that gets lost on non-Japanese speakers who have to experience Babymetal's lyrics through the distorting lens of translation.

Can imagine the reaction of every Babymetal fan when you said the Wolf sign 😱😱😱😂

i heard this song back in late 2013 and been hooked ever since. to think they were 15 and 13 years old here. now you have to do this song live. just remember Babymetal was formed when Su was 12 and Moa and Yui were 11. their first video was Doki Doki Morning. in that video they used borrowed clothes. they even taught the fake band to dance and move. Amuse thought it was an experiment so no budget for the video. and now look at them now with their shows in Japan. again i will make a suggestion for reacting to the Guide to Babymetal by Cryptic Misery, the 45 minute version. it will help you with the history of Babymetal and how it came about. well worth the reaction.

2 minutes in, you: "God damnit... they were already going this hard 10 years ago?" Me: *grins and sits back waiting for the breakdown*

Megitsune will go down as among the greatest non English heavy metal songs of all time, right up there with Rammstein's or Sepultura's classic bangers.

You nailed the pronunciation. Their new song, Metali, and its' video especially, is like a modern follow-up to Megitsune. Both are very fun! I got to see them at Louder Than Life festival in September, where they had a condensed set due to time constraints. They had been playing these two songs back to back, but cut Megitsune in favor of the newer song, which made sense, but GOD I would have loved to hear them both!

Yes!! So pronounced Megitsune correctly! One of my fave Babymetal songs!!! Guess what!! Did you know Nemophila covered Megitsune too?? Guitarist, Saki-san is a big Babymetal fan so Nemophila decided to cover it! My hope is that Babymetal & Nemophila go on tour together where they can perform this song. Imagine Babymetal doing this with Nemophila as the band!! Please react to Nemophila's cover of MEGITSUNE!!!

Someone probably already explained its basically a female empowerment song if I can call it that. The Fox 🦊symbol is the foxgod. As someone already said check out their comment below for more details. I imported myself a Noh-Theatre Fox mask because they look sick and wanted a traditionally handmade one. Great that you enjoy this song its one of my favorites 🤘🦊🤘 #notacult

When they play this live and everyone on the floor, including the pit, jumps with them ... The building shakes . It's insane. Moa and Yui look like they are 10 years old in this video. They definitely had fun making it.

Kitsune is like a magical Fox that can shape shift, so megitsune is a play off that transformation from a girl into a young woman

Very cool!!! To see them young, “Doki Doki Morning” and “Iine”, original music videos, show the beginning of the project. It's great to see how the production managed to create a light song, with 11, 12 year old girls singing and mixing very well done metal elements. I saw that you reacted to other bands from Japan (I follow Nemophila, Band Maid, Unlucky Morpheus, Lovebites and Wagakki Band). Nemophila has some videos playing covers, as you may have already noticed. One of these covers is precisely Nemophila playing this song that you reacted to here (Megitsune - Babymetal). Worth checking out! Enjoy Babymetal! 🦊🤘🦊

Some Japanese bands, old and new. Take your pick: BAND-MAID [All their songs... really!], LOVEBITES [Break the Wall, Raise some Hell, and all the other songs], BABYMETAL [All their songs, because they are all different], MAXIMUM THE HORMONE [Yoshu Fukushu], DEXCORE [Earthworm], CROSSFAITH [Catastrophe], SiM [Killing Me], NINGEN ISU [Heartless Scat], UNLUCKY MORPHEUS [Black Pentagram], YOUSEI TEIKOKU [Astral Dogma, Patriot Anthem (Live)] and their other band: DenKare [Detonator], COLDRAIN [Die Tomorrow], CRYSTAL LAKE [The Circle], GIVEN BY THE FLAMES [Ronove], LONESOME_BLUE [Face the Fear], ANGRY FROG REBIRTH [2Step Syndrome], SILENTLY SHOOTING TRAITORS [Manipulate], ALDIOUS [Dominator], TRiDENT [Ambivalent, Spoopy], BRIDEAR [Light in the Dark], CINQ ELEMENT [Destiny], MARY'S BLOOD [Marionette], GRAUPEL [Bereavement], DOLL$BOXX [Take my Chance], SOKONINARU [Tenohira De Odoru], HELLO SLEEPWALKERS [Flying Saucer], TELECiDE [Tied up Memories], NEKO [Ghost on a Record], MARDELAS [G-Metal], MERGINGMOON [Greyen], ROTTENGRAFFTY [Hallelujah], JILUKA [Mephisto, Overkill], BROKEN BY THE SCREAM [Emotion Cross-Counter], FATE GEAR [Unbreakable Wings], LYNCH [Devil], GACHARIC SPIN [Mindset], DIR EN GREY [Ningen wo Kaburu], X JAPAN [Kurenai], DAZZLE VISION [Second], DEVILOOF [Torture], JUPITER [My Enemy], NOKUTO [Life of Desire], GALNERYUS [Angel of Salvation], SAISEIGA [Ride On], BLOOD STAIN CHILD [Del-Sol], NEMOPHILA [Rise, Hypnosis], DADAROMA [Lucid Dream], JILUKA [Overkill, Lluvia, or Venom], HANABIE [We Love Sweets, Be the GAL], ZEILE [Deathside], A CROWD OF REBELLION [Re:Create of the Re:d], PALEDUSK [Area PD], POLKADOT STINGRAY [any song], MUTANT MONSTERS [Abnormal], BLACKLAB [Insanity], ASTERISM [Fiction, Rising Moon, Unravel, or Church], NOISEMAKER [Hunter or Prey], BiSH [The Night When Stars Twinkle], SCANDAL [A.M.D.K.J.], DEEP GIRL [I kill], Mrs. GREEN APPLE [Inferno], BRATS [Doudatte Yokatta], THE ORAL CIGARETTES [Frenzy Hey Kids!!], GIRUGAMESH [Drain], LiLiHoLi [From Darkness to Light], THE DEVIL’S KILLING MERRY-GO-ROUND [Diabolos], OTOBOKE BEAVER [Don't Light My Fire, Love is Short], and many many more...

All hail the fox God.

Pronounced correctly! Well done! Arguably one of the best songs and music videos done by BABYMETAL, it was recorded in 2013. I suggest you react to BABYMETAL's first two music videos: "Doki Doki Morning" and "Iine!" (pronounced "E-nay") both done in 2011 when Su-metal was 13 and both Yuimetal and Moametal were 12. I know I suggested this before but, hey, you can't remember everything, right? Perhaps take notes? Keep rockin’ BABYMETAL!!! KITSUNE UP!!! 🤘🦊🤘

You think in this they look so young? Wait until you see Doki Doki Morning music video when Yui and Moa still can pass as toddlers 😁

Nemophila covered Megitsune and added the parts it needed - Mayu actually does the screaming and growling and it’s chilling. On your journey down this rabbit hole you still haven’t found the first successful band - Aldious. Start with Megalomaniac live to get a sense of where all of this comes from.

Babymetal is crazy, but in a good way.

Megitsune means female foxes. She pulls out a knife and says... Don't underestimate maidens... (female foxes.)

Great reaction, check out babymetal - Catch me if you can live Budokan Black Night🤘🦊🤘

You should react to Megitsune live!

Reaction Live 🤟🦊🤟

Came here for YUI ❤❤❤ 4:15 yes yes yes

Bro, if you can get around to it please do Motteke Sailor Fuku when they were still in Sakura Gakuin and even younger than this! I promise you will love it 😊

NEXT SONG ----> *DEATH* 💀☠👻

It's a great song from Baby metal.. Do more of them and watch their progress.. Also check out your new favorite bands cover of this.. Nemophila/Megitsune cover it's awesome..

You should jump into their live stuffs now.

The song is about a woman who transforms into a fox goddess, and how she can change her appearance to fit in with the times but still stay true to her inner self. The lyrics emphasize the idea that women are like actresses, always putting on a show and hiding their true feelings, but ultimately they have the strength to endure and overcome their challenges. The chorus reminds us that women are always changing, just like the fox goddess, and that they should never be underestimated.

This song’s themes focus on women’s tendencies to hide their true intentions and emotions in order to be perceived as “ideal women”, making comparisons to actresses and, more notably, foxes

Nemophila did cover this megitsune song , it just awesome ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!

If haven't already you need to see the nemophila cover of this song

👍 👍 As good as this MV is (and it is) the LIVE performances (such as Budokan 2021 or Legend 1997 concert) needs to be seen when you can.

I would recommend Megitsune live. You can get it off my playlist of 2023 live performances. ru-vid.com/group/PL7Y918oJxXaYGAlhN3DLd5AAoye11F3o4

Nemophila did a cover of this song also, it is a great cover

Nemophila do an awesome cover of this

Fellow, let me ask you something... Are you seeing anyone really playing? To me this is a comercial package and not a product made by musicians...

The fox mask is representing the kitsune. Kitsune is the Japanese word for fox. Foxes are well known around the world as cunning tricksters, but Kitsune (Japanese for fox) are a little different. Kitsune are spiritual beings that can shapeshift into either male or female forms and possess superior intelligence. Part of the Japanese folklore pictured in the video (orange Tori gates) are Fushimi Inari which are guarded by the Inari fox statues at the gates. 🦊🦊🦊
