First Time Reaction to J-POP 

Bro does not realize that like 70% of anime openings are J-pop...

Man that sure so nostalgic. I was there in Koisuru Fortune Cookie era. This dance was everywhere in every Japanese events/festival, flash mobs happens everytime they play this as BGM, even at my campus, we looove to dance to this song. I'm sure the whole world had their Fortune Cookie era (at least for the Japanese/idols lovers community). Back then I didn't like idol girls, but this song and the dance were so addictive.

これなぁ、、、なんだこれって思ったけどクセになるんだよなぁ。鼻歌歌っちゃう

AKB48 was the GOAT man... I wish Nick can react to Keyakizaka46 too, their MV is crazy good either!! Great music, amazing dancing skill and great performance!!!

Nostalgic song! I think everyone was dancing back then. I want you to see the MV for AKB48's Heavy Rotation~ lol 

This song always makes me happy. It reminds me of the time when i could enjoy everything

Just wanna let you know that AKB48 and all the other J-idol groups' music are just one aspect of what we call J-pop. Idol music is a part of J-pop. There are also a lot of solo artists and groups and bands that are also J-pop, and a lot of anime openings and endings are also J-pop. It's a really wide variety of music. A lot of people, especially from those who only think of something like Kpop when they hear or think of "Asian Pop Music", has this misconception that J-pop is just idol music, like the 48/46 idol groups But, yeah, just letting that out ^_^ AND nothing wrong with idol music. I love AKB (mostly the 1st gens and the recent ones) and Nogizaka46 (when Ikuta Erika was still there) ^_^ haha

みんなに踊ってもらいたい曲として作られたこの曲ですぐに踊り出したのであなたはもうJ-POPの虜です😂

色んな曲聞いてくれてありがとうね😊🌈

You've been listening to lot of J-Pop and J-Rock/Metal since you first started your anime journey lol An example of J-Pop would be artists like YOASOBI, Aimer, Yama, Ado, Vaundy, etc. AKB48 is a very old but popular and legendary idol group in Japan. This genre is categorized as a sub-genre of J-Pop called, "Idol Pop" which is still J-Pop but singers or groups like AKB48 are distinctively known as "Idol Pop." Japanese idol culture is a real monster to try to describe in full detail so I'm not gonna. I'll let someone else do that if they want lol

yep, this will be the start of a journey. i remember when i listened to akb48 back in 2010, that was eye opening for my music taste. have fun :)

When I say I love KFC I meant I love Koisuru Fortune Cookie! Lmao I love AKB48's songs they're bops❤ My recommendations are - #Sukinanda - Oogoe Diamond - Kibouteki Refrain and the latest one - Aidoru Nanka Janakattara

It is unforgettable that the girls brightened up Japan, which still bears the scars of the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. This song and dance was very popular at the time. I am using a translator, so I apologize if there are any rudeness

恋するフォーチュンクッキーの時期のアイドルpopは、耳馴染みも良くてダンスも覚えやすいものが多かった気がする。 だから年齢問わず浸透していた印象だな😊

Southern All Stars / Minna no Uta! Live at ROCK IN JAPAN 2018 They are a national band representing Japan. Please listen to them.

I wanna see your one ok rock reaction

One Ok Rock -We Are (live version) please

This is “Japanese kawaii culture “

AKBはヘビーローテーションという曲が1番好きやで！

Akb48 is amazing you should check out more of their songs. Forever will be one of my favorites

THIS IS WHAT I'M WAITING FOR THIS ❤😂

これを機に、色んなJ-POPアイドルの曲聴いて欲しい！😂

這是我最喜歡的歌曲跟MV之一，它傳達一種共同歡樂，共享幸福的氛圍，我很高興你也喜歡它，也希望世界也能跟它一樣歡樂，生活中有喜怒哀樂，但願未來一片光明~~

I did not expect to be delivered this much happiness, but here I am at nearly 1AM about to cry from how beautiful this is 🥺🥺

Bro 70% of anime openings are JPop. Nick JPop is so much fun. Please watch more from them.

We need more of this🎉

My favourite song 🔥 Thank you so much for your great reaction ❤️

Does bro know he's been listening to JPop and JRock this entire time? LMFAO

ニコラスニキがAKB見て楽しんでるw 絶対苦手な方面だと思ってたんだけどw 翻訳が欲しい～！

当時は興味なかったけど、リアクションありきで見てたらこの曲好きになってた

Wait this music is so nostalgic to me😂 This song is actually a decade ago song

AKB48 sang a song in Dragonball, Fairytail, AKB0048 mecha/sci-fi anime based from the group.

あなたにこんなに気に入ってもらえて嬉しいです ヘビーローテーションにはどんな反応をするのか興味があります そのMVには問題作という人も多いですから

1990年代あたりの音楽も好きよ〜

I know this song kinda old, but it's booming lately last year, it's catchy tho

Nick if you ever watched Wreck it Ralph they did the Sugar Rush song.

Kenney Omega belonged DDT this moment. Later he moved New Japan. Kennta Kobashi that is super star Japanese wrestling appears in this video

Best kept secret in the music world: AKB48, with literally hundreds of members AND songs. A rabbit hole worth exploring.

"This is not J-pop, it's just a regular song."

AKB48の曲の中で一番好きだなあ。衣装も綺麗✨

Akb48 had 130 members last time i checked, how many years have passed since they came out...

you have to see babymetal bro they are legends

Please react to Yorushika. Their songs are really good

3:53〜 新日本プロレスでまだ研修生だった頃のケニー・オメガです😂🧡

Please give XG's reaction. vocals, dancing, and rapping skills are amazing. All of them are Japanese, but it's not JPOP or KPOP, it's XPOP.

君の感動溢れる大胆なリアクションクソおもろいw😂

OMG can't believe it you react to AKB48 😂 Btw Mayuyu ❤

bro doesnt realise he reacted to alot of jpop already

AKB48 I love most their songs there is also anime that is based on them too.

This song made a short appearance in makoto shinkai's weathering with you

これを見ると｢いろいろ大変だけど、また少し頑張ろう」という気分に、なれました。 久しぶり見る機会与えて下さってありがとうございます😊

Please check out 'Mainstream' By BE:FIRST. BE:FIRST is a seven-member Japanese dance and vocal group. The MV is amazing. I'm sure you like it.

え〜〜〜！？これいく？ うん、イイネ！

Oh no, this song. My ex's memories are coming back.

love you NICK

Now you have to do official higedan dism's non anime songs

Didn't see this coming🤣🤣🤣

Pelase listen to Daichi Miura!! Hes amazing and also sang the intro for dragon ball i think z. Its called Blizzard, another song that goes hard is 能動(Nōdō) the beat goes hard along with his vocals

Must see a Keyakizaka46 song with Hirate at the centre.

I wonder what he would think when he checks out other mv like heavy rotation XD

what have you got yourself into today?

日本からこんにちは😊 あなたの動画はとても素晴らしいദ്ദി ˃ ᵕ ˂ ) いつか日本に来てください🎉

Don't forget that in Japan there are also Yakuza who are more cruel, bro 👊🏼

I've been addicted to this song ever since heard it on a twitch stream

man every time i watch a video that has twitch chat they never be on topic

I'd love to see him react to groups like HSJ!, Sexy Zone & King & Prince

you should 100 percent react to babymetal... they mix j-pop and heavy metal music

My Queen Sashihara Rino ♥♥♥

BE:FIRST🙏🙏🙏

Oh god, you did AKB48?!?!? hahaah

Anime openings are litrally J- pop

one of Naruto shippuden opening is AKB48 song, you already react it

ニコラスニキとんでもない沼に足を踏み入れてて草

ヘビーローテーションのMV見て欲しい🥰

04:07 Kenny Omega! That's right.🤣

Please try LOVEBITES. It is J-rock/metal and it is another level.

I hope you liked this song even though it is about ten years old. Thanks for the reaction.

do you know the band babymetal?

This is a group and song that is trying to become the new J-pop, so please give us your reaction to BE:FIRST's "Mainstream"!

Bro can you try kamen rider geats trust lust song

ガタイ良すぎだろ。。 筋肉ムキムキや

1:20 "I don't know why there is a dancing monkey behind them" 💀💀💀 I didn't see the guy in monkey suit at first

How about introduce him to kamen rider op and ost since he's really like jp music

Early

Can u react to alexandros music. You'll rlly like it

Plese listen to Morning Musume's Souda!We're ALIVE. KICK BACK by Yonezu Kenshi having lyrical references to Morning Musume's Souda!We're ALIVE.

Perfumeも聴いていただきたいな〜(*´ω｀*)

I can recommend u XG “HESONOO & X-GENE” like and example of another Japanese artist and ONE OK ROCK songs too u will not be disappointed, I swear

One ok rock please

Nobody listening to J-Pop for the first time has all of those stuffed things in the background.

AKB48 are basically cheerleaders of Japan.

I'm more of a fan of the alternative side of jpop with groups like BiSH and BABYMETAL, they go way harder. Innocent Arrogance by BiSH is a prime example of why.

It’s good that Momo, Sana and Mina left there on time, they were also dancing there now

AKB48 is legends

now that you listened to jpop you should try out jrock, eg one ok rock and babymetal

wait is this hirona sato's gen

懐かしすぎ😂

Yay! AKB48 their music is fun and their costumes are cute and react to sakurazaki 46 they are just as good
