Suzuka is such a showman. When I saw them in concert last year, she TWICE stood on the audience bar and let the crowd hold her up with our hands while she belted out lyrics. She will choose a girl in the crowd sometimes and get up close while singing. She is fearless.
Wild card for a reason 😂
I wanna be that girl
thank you for this information, however when is it MY TURN????
My turn to be that girl next
“it should’ve been MEEEE!!!!”
The context of this song brings the lyrics into a focus just a bit, so I'll explain.
The song was written when the girls were about 16-18, and it's basically meant to be taken as a joke. The title of the song, 大人ぶる, means 'to pretend to be an adult', which is basically what they're doing throughout the whole song, from the lyrics to the dancing. The joke is meant to be that they're kind of childish and not really being as coquettish or seductive as they think they are, but they're singing as though they're in a burlesque show or something. But ultimately, yeah, it's just about being a kid (more specifically a teenager), and feeling like the people around you aren't mature enough for your tastes and desiring an "adult romance" where both parties are mature, but also recognizing that you're too young and therefore pretending to be an adult in order to seduce someone you feel is more compatible with your "maturity".
My lack of culture thx you o/
awesome! Thanks :)
Brillant
Dude, music is music, doesn't need too much explanation
@@MyDarkgaia If that were true, why would people write lyrics that aren't simply dispassionate statements of fact? Why would they write lyrics at all? Words have meaning. Understanding the meaning of those words is valuable to some people. It's perfectly fine if you're not one of those people. That said, there's not much point in coming here to tell people they're enjoying music the wrong way. This is one of those debates that's not going to have a right or wrong answer, so let's just nip this in the bud and agree to disagree.
I absolutely LOVE when people react to them for the first time 😭 👏
We know what they got themselves into, so it's an inside joke for us now. We just watch them fall deeper and deeper hahahaha
Literaaly me when I first watched them. I was like "wtf am I watching" but in a good way and now im enjoying their music😂
Atarashii Gakko No Leaders (New School Leaders) was formed in 2015 by Asobisytem. Mizyu (the one with two ponytails) was already on their books as she was a back up dancer to Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and they brought in Rin, Kanon and Suzuka to join her. They do all their own choreography and also create dances for other groups. They have some of the most original choreo I've seen from an idol group. In fact they are almost an anti-idol group as their motto is "With individuality and freedom I'm going to stick out" and they sing about challenging themes and have appeared at Pride events and do some pretty avant garde art projects. In 2020/21 they joined 88rising to break into the US market and have had some success getting millions of YT views and doing some concerts in California. They recently broke out on TikTok in Japan with Otona Blue which is quite an old song and this First Take version is closing in on 10M views.
Otona Blue (Adult Blue, blue is associated with youth and immaturity in Japan) is about "teenage awakening" ie the awareness of desire in others and their own desire to grow up and experience adult emotions. AG wrote the lyrics themselves when they were younger and I think it's an honest expression of their feelings as they approached adulthood, which makes people uncomfortable. But AG never shy away from difficult subjects. They actually cut out some of the more explicit "phallic" bits of the dance and introduced a mime of a flower opening with a surprised look.
Another teenage angst song is "Nai Nai Nai".

and check out their latest song "Suki Lie" which is about romantic betrayal.
Thank you!... You just saved me from going on an epic rant explaining Atarashii Gakko! (Atarashii Gakkou no Leaders) to another idiotic male. 😇
You did it very politely as well - which is more than I can manage these day lol
Based on probabilities I'm assuming you are male therefore I'm granting you the provisional status of "Not an idiotic male" - A very rare creature indeed, so I hope you get to pass on your excellent genes to offspring 🙃🤪
🤘🏳⚧(⚵⚶⚴𓁴⚳⚢⚸)🏳🌈
It should be noted that there is a difference between ブルー and 青. 青 can mean youthful and inexperienced, especially in words like 青年, while ブルー on the other hand often borrows foreign meanings like sad/blues. In an interesting context, ぶる means "to behave like (the attached noun, in this case adult)", which given the videography in the music video: like the girls smoking cigarettes that are actually candies, I think is one of the meanings AG thought of during production. (Behaving like an adult).
As with most things in Japanese, there is more than one correct answer, I just wanted to add more context for John and others.
@@WestAirAviation Yes translations can easily miss the puns and double meanings of the original Japanese. It took me a while to get the "love hate" thing in "Suki Lie" as they only gave the English as the title.
@@Sapphos_daughter Thanks
I always wondered if they had someone creating the choreography and who produced most of their music. Thanks for the info haha. They have really been blowing up even more it seems.
im so happy that atarashi gakko is getting the recognition it deserves, i've been following them since 2020 and im so proud of them
This group is amazing, Suzuka has such a powerful voice and she is just a vibe.
Her voice always gives me chills
I was listening to Japanese radio and came across their song Giri Giri, checked them out on Spotify and wow. All their songs are unique, unlike many groups they have amazing creativity.
Suzuka is amazing, that voice 🥰
As for the lyrics, you can really get the whole concept from the name of the single, Otona (Adult) Buruu (Feeling sad / Blues). Buruu is very close to Buru (To act like the previous noun, in this case Adult), which is a visual they display a few times in the music video, like when they smoke cigarettes which are actually candies. The native word for blue (pronounced Ao, Sei, or Shou), is often used to describe youthfulness, so there's a play on words there with these three meanings. I imagine the most intended meaning however is: To Act Like An Adult. (Otona Buru)
it's more "midle aged man chasing after school girls"
The lyrics sound like what I've heard women describe as the uniquely female experience of entering adolescence. All of a sudden they're developing more mature figures and, though still very young, they're catching the eyes of older men. Some don't know how to deal with it and it scares them. Others naïvely desire more "adult" experiences - sometimes regretting it. A woman could definitely describe this better than I.
You're not alone))) A lot of metalheads do like Atarashii Gakko 😅.
Even tho the music is different but the wildness and entertaining are at the same level as metal performers.
And yes, they may have serious lyrics but they don't take it overly serious.
Their concept is "Anti-idols"
Their new song suki lie is also great. They self describe as the cute mizyu, the funky rin, the graceful kanon, and the wildcard suzuka. Suzuka definitely is a wildcard and so so so charismatic.
I don’t remember the last time I’ve seen a wildcard at the forefront of a group where it works as well as this! You’re right, she’s really charismatic
Big time flex by Atarashii Gakko to dance on The First Take.
One thing I noticed is Atarashii Gakko has a lot of videos that are relatively equally popular. People who watch one Atarashii Gakko video watch a bunch of them.
This is Atarashii Gakko in a nutshell. This is them. What the song is about is a girl who wants to be an adult, but isn't quite there yet.
I found them randomly back when they were just starting out and I’ve been in love with them ever since. They’re just awesome ladies all around! Super multi-genre spanning as well
The lyrics are ironic
Also they are all adults, this song in particular is supposed to be a social commentary on some very specific weirdos..you should look up the meanings
They are a very fun group
Didn't realize you hadn't seen them yet. They are fantastic. Koi Geba is another great one. They are incredibly fun.
Suzuka is incredibly charismatic and dare I say, sexy?
Atarashi Gakko is one of my favorite groups of all time
yes the lyrics is soo in contrast in their mv and thats why they are unique
FFVII lo-fi at the end. Literally listening to that just before i got on my atarashii gakko rabbithole.
ohhhh heck YES!!!!! I LOVE IT! lol I was raised on some FFVII so it makes me happy to hear when others know it!
@@JohnReavesLive my cat was named Sephiroth and when she passed away I got a new one named Aerith. In the square enix cafe in Akihabara I met a couple who were there because their pet was named after the world ends with you. I think square just knows how to make a game that really resonates with people! The music in those games is top notch!
@@maryk4y an SQ cafe ?! That’s amazing! And I totally agree their games are so deep both story and music connects emotionally:)
Atarashii Gakko is one of the more globally recognizable & popular performance groups coming out of the J-Pop scene. As you can see here, just as in K-Pop, their niche is sing+dance, not sing+instruments (or dance+instruments, such as in a marching band). They are kooky & corny. Since you know Band-Maid, I sometimes like to see the facial similarities between some of the gals, such as Mizyu looking like Miku, & Kanon looking like Saiki, etc.
I love their first take video! It was the first time hearing of them for me, too, and I had the EXACT same reaction you did! Now, I’m gonna look at more of your channel cuz they led me here. It’s all, like, cyclical, man😂
This is song is pure sarcasm, they are saying what they think older guys who fetichize them wants them to say.
Yes, absolutely! These girls are making fun of all older men who fantasize about young school girls. Hence the school girl uniforms. Remember the quote from an old movie about high school girls “I get older, but high school girls remain the same”
I've been seeing them on my fyp the whole week and today I checked up this music and now the are probably the best music group today
Brilliant music with so much levity, this old school metalhead just loves these ladies.
You should check out their full choreo for this song, it's amazing.
My son lives in Tokyo. He saw them live at a festival a few months ago, and apparently they are just completely nutso, entertaining, and awesome live!
AG has lyrics that are edgy or ridiculous or weird. I think they write their own lyrics and their own choreography. Suzuka has a lot of comedy videos up on YT, she definitely has comedic talent. Their music arrangements are from their producers, so the style changes depending on their production team. I think this song is meant to be a bit ironic and absurd. They are kind of an anti idol group.
They are amazing! I just discovered AG! 🖤🖤🖤🖤
I love Aratashii Gakko! Night before the Exam is classic AG! When I was learning Japanese it was on replay just to keep me motivated.
Found this band thanks to them appearing on the First Take, which I discovered thanks the channel's first vTuber Suisei. Man, this group is so fucking cool and I love their vibe.
I been blesses by the existence of these girls
Im going with John: "what did i just watch.." 😄 it was fun for sure!👍
THEY'RE SO SILLY I LOVE THEM
Love them! Started listening to them as I'm learning Japanese and their lyrics were the first that were just clear to me and then just everything else about them has kept them on my daily playlist.
I recommend searching youtube for 'cyclone 2019.12.7'. It's a 16 min condensed version of a concert of them and shows all their styles very well
Son increíbles, AG❤
A lot of their lyrics are sarcastic like this one and Koi Gebe are best listened to/read while imagining an eyeroll with it haha
If you are into rock, metal or punk you can listen to their songs saisyu jinrui, koi geba, koinosyodanki, kimawaina17, okami no uta. I do recommend these songs they are fast phased rock like songs
AAAAA ATARASHII GAKK !! MY LOVE
They have so much charisma and personality. It's refreshing.
It’s an idol band. Their image is having fun, going against the Japanese System. But they are an Idol band under Aosobi’s brand and Rise 88 label. Buy they are Idols.
The song was from a few years ago but received much attention recently on Tiktok so they did an official video (Almost 9 mil views) for it just prior to doing the F1RST TAKE video here (almost 10 mil views in just over a week). In that they have more suggestive innuendos and there is B Roll footage out that didn't make it (like Miyzu in the bed waving to come to her lol) I say they are Wacky and Witty and just that good at it. They also do dance practice vids for some of their songs too. Very entertaining.
Love the reaction and I’m curious after seeing this if you have ever seen or reacted to Ningen Isu/Heartless Scat
Their song Janaindayo is also very awesome! Their Nai Nai Nai song was my first introduction to them. That's a hilarious song about girls getting jealous of bigger boo...bew...breowbs🤣🤣🤣Their lyrics are hilarious and naughty sometimes!
Tokyo calling is another fun video. I first noticed thus group when they popped up on captain disillusion last year...
they do great music videos
their dance practice videos are great as well
they have also done a series called "The Seishun Academy " where they do a kind of fun videos explaining Japanese schools their rules and other oddities all very entertaining
I love them because they’re an 80s/90s comic anti-pop-idol pop idol group
Nailed it.
Your reaction was exactly the same as mine: "I have no idea what's going on but I'm IN."
AG: *haven't sung yet"
This guy: "I love this."
Honestly, same. I almost spontaneously combusted when I came across their dance choreography for this song for the first time.
Yeah, Sazuka has wild vocal range and control. The more I watch AG the more I love them even if I don’t understand them!
Welcome to the amazing AG family.
Suzuka is a charm.
AND YESTERDAY THEY HAD A NEW SONG THAT SOOOOO FREAKING COOOL MAN! the tittle is Suki Lie. I can't wait to see your reaction video 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love these girls,
oh god otona blue is GOING ON MY FYP
🤣 they're so different from other girls band or group but i really love it
koi geba next! probably my favourite song from atarashii gakko c:
Aratashii gakko whoo go is another grate song
That was a really surprising song! I like it!
But bro, the LoFi FF X soundtrack during the Thoughts section? You got a sub.
i in love with kanon
they are a bundle of 24/7 sugar rush, never run out of energy.
Don't worry that shame only stings for a minute lol. I'm a metal head too but this song is catchy for some reason even I started boppin to it and I'm an old school metal head.
Eu amo elas
If you're a metal vocalit, I suggest SUKI LIE from this same girl band! Its one of my favorite songs from ATARASHII GAKKO! and i think it's enjoyable
リアクション楽しかったですー
訳して読んでくださいね！
you might really like koi geba or night before the exam for something more serious, but for something more
goofy you might like nainainai!!
Sugoi! Check out their dance practice vids. They are a hoot!
literally my reaction
Suzuka and these girls are true artists, they embrace the wierd
I don't know if they are still there, but they were very recently turing the US
AG rules! Love that they are breaking out. A lot of their songs are a critique of elements of Japanese culture. The lyrics seem like they are pervy, it reads like a young girl who wants it. That’s not it…. At all. This song is a big FU to creeps who harass young girls. It’s sarcastic and cutting. Their live performance makes that a little more clear. Everything they do isn’t what it seems. Which makes them awesome. And yeah, Suzuka has serious pipes.
Suzuka remind me of Asuka in Hibike!Euphomium! a lot
I am loving Suzuka, she is amazing.
You just entered a whole new rabbit hole. I'd say goodluck, but nothing wrong with it. so Enjoy
This group is damn good. One of the girls group that gonna garner lots of male fans not because of their looks
Suggestion: Sarukani
and;
SO-SO
(who is one of the members but does his own thing too).
Japan has some awesome groups.
KOI GEBA neeextttt
At the cusp of adulthood where they know they can attract a guy, longing for that adult encounter, going through motions, up to saying 'Naw, I'm not ready'.
The first take is the programme one of my fave English name Queen Bee have done it
Susuka voice reminds me of the early Valshe😊
🔥❤️🔥
It's July 2 - I have been bing watching them all weekend. Who else noticed how much Mizyu looks like Miku Kaboto??!!
The song is about the Japanese men's obsession of very young girls. There are 11yo girls that pose in very sexy outfits for men to photograph them. Usually their Mother's escort them the the studios. There is video on YT of this.
they do freak me out a little, but damn the voices are amazing
otonablue is like a bold woman, otona = adult woman + blue = cool color represntation in japanese.
in kids/teenage phase woman, the looks adult woman becames cooler not like a teenage / kids
n sometimes they imagine n imitate to be like an adult woman as well, but well it's kids imaginary so their lyrics is like that
that's why the lyric so cheeky
.
that's what i grasp but idk the true meaning
it's like Karen O of the yeah yeah yeahs split into 4!!!!!
Ok few things I am a fan of metal and hard rock. Pretty much hate pop but damn I love AG just an insane mixture of fun, good music, good dance, humor and personality. People will push you and give thumbs ups for their favorite songs. BUT..in the summer of 2022 while touring the US, Suzuka was asked where should one start to explore AG. Her response Koi Geba. It is a serious topic, teacher/student sexual affairs. Of course they do it with flair and style. The song is also rooted in a more jazz/rock vide as their older music tended to be.
there is a cover picture for the song showing suzuka with lipstick. google it, look at it and you know what the song is about.
I believe the song's title is a reference to "otona buru", which means, "to be, or, act like an adult when one is not".
their video with Captain Dsesillusion is the most random idea ever conceived.
😭❤️suzuka
They are the Japanese Girl version of the Beatles..
i just filmed a new music video with them 4/18/24 a few days after there Coachella Performance. im a cowboy in video .I won't say what we filmed, but you will be blown away.
they are not sure of the title of the song yet. Atarashii Gakko are really cool Ladies.
I would like to suggest their older song "Love Boom Barrier", a story about a girl fell in love, told her best friend all about her crush. But her best friend betrayed.
ruclips.net/video/k18g-12B9h4/видео.html
Music video is great, and their live dance is unbelievable too
ruclips.net/video/ksXgnC_3Fqc/видео.html
why, hes blushing 😅😅 with awkwardness ahahahaha
AG is japanese weirdness at its best
it took 2min more or less for him to do the neck thing xD
LOL what neck thing!?!?
hope they collab with rotns 😢
You should listen to another song from ATARASHII GAKKO! It's more metal like. It's called Koi Geba!
There is only one vocalist named suzuka and she is in a band named "BABYMETAL"🤙🤙
lol.
I think the meaning of the song is that the girl wants to feel true love and not be treated like a little girl anymore.
I prefere recommand you : ano "Fuhen "
the music is pseudo-showa style 😂
