The only thing I'll say as a FACT, Mr. Heretic, is that Nyango Star saved a Prefecture from bankruptcy and obscurity by bringing notoriety to that prefecture due to the apples they grow there. We really shouldn't care about who is inside the costume, and more about what their ability has done to save an entire Prefecture from extinction. Outside of that.. everyone should go out today and have eat an apple and pet a cat! 😁
@@kitsuneneko2567 I said it before and I'll say it again: A choice between a heavy set farmer wearing a 10-gallon hat, overalls, and an ear of corn sticking out of his pocket (I can dig at it; I'm from Nebraska), or an apple possessed by the spirit of a cat who can play drums better than those in most mainstream, let alone thrash bands, who saves an entire prefecture from extinction and brings notice to the apples in their area? I'll take the Apple Cat.
Oh no. I knew I was going to like this because I like practically every video you produce, I hit "like" before getting to the point where you asked to watch first before pressing any buttons. I have failed.
I need to see David Heretic react to Funassyi CHARAMEL full band version with Akkuma, Kapal and Nyango Star. Also, there's a video of Nyango Star playing for Yoshiki in the same room.
I read a few Japanese articles about him. They all mention a drummer of a local band from the same prefecture as Nyango. They say the information is not definite but most likely. His picture is also included. He looks kinda like X Japan members (big hair and makeup), and his name is supposed to be Yoshiki, too.
Nyango is a living legend the first time i ve Seen His/Her overqualified video i think OK that drum is to big for the show... then the rest is history i really love how he/she plays that Drums who is in that Disguise? It dosent matter what indeed matters is the art that this person is doing
Nobody has any convincing proof who Nyango Star is under there. 66Samus (drum channel who also reacted) has also been asking for proof anytime someone makes a claim too There are a lot of people parroting other commentators on certain unproven rumours One thing is certain though, I love watching Nyango Star drum!
Hear me out...this individual is Matt Damon. Or...Junna, or umm...hmm...Its Yui Mizuno!!! She wants to simply be a apple cat drummer and is living her best life. If not that, it might be you David...you! And yeah...doesn't matter, but its fun to speculate.
I really appreciated your standpoint on the identity of the drummer. I liked that you were decent by using your words, mixing up "he" or "she" (which naturally comes instantly into mind) with "that person", "that individual" or just "they". Not in a "lecturing" or "smart-ass way" (I'm missing the right words here, in Germany we say "belehrend" or "besserwisserisch"), but in a smooth and overall respectful kind of articulation. Thank you for that, and ofc thanks a lot for that entertaining reaction. Keep it up!
Okay, people seem to be a bit confused when they think about who's in the costume. We need to read about it if we want to have opinions. These mascots represent colectives, they have no identity on their own, by design. Nyango Star is Kuroichi, a village that was devastated by 2011's tsunami, and had it's population abandoning it. Nyango drums to call back that population, to tell them not to forget about where they came from, because if everyone just moves to the big cities, then the real Japan just dies off, culturally. It doesn't matter who Nyango is, it matters what Kuroichi is, and what will it become.
Hi David true baby metal fan here. Anyone who copies baby metal is awesome I know it can’t be exact. But to have live enough to try I love. Thank you for your reviews. I try to play a lot of baby metal on my kit and yesssss it’s crazy. Watching others like Junna do it is so fun. Stay metal everyone. So excited baby metal coming to Orlando Florida September 2. I have 3 tickets and yes I know most of the choreography 😂I will be so loud and proud. My wife and son are in for a treat 👉🦊👈🤘🤘❤️take care David and everyone 🤘
Not really a fan of Babymetal, I have only heard at most a couple of songs. I just couldn’t help but notice the similarities between certain parts of this song and Dragonforce. They were definitely heavily influenced by them, at least on this track.
Is Nyango Star the drummer from MAXIMUM THE HORMONE?  Kawakita Nao (川北奈緒), better known by her stage name Nao (ナヲ), is the drummer of MAXIMUM THE HORMONE. She is the older sister of Kawakita Ryo. On December 16, 2008, she announced her marriage to former REMIND bassist JUN.
@@Charles0002 Maybe you can find it on youtube, there is an audition held by MTH, nyango star is one of them, he played drums with/in front of all MTH members, including nao
@@Charles0002 No. In that video, she was giving compliments to Nyango Star after the performance, which means she was just behind the camera. No Japanese people think Nao is Nyango Star. In fact, many Japanese people wonder why foreigners think it's her.
In Japan, Daisuke Kodachi is said to be the most likely candidate for Nyango Star because he's a drummer and the person who filed for the trademark registration for the mascot. It's only non-Japanese people who think Nao is Nyango Star. They think like that just because they can't see her but hear her in a video where Nyango Star and Maximum the Hormone are together. But for Japanese people like myself, that video is the evidence that she isn't Nyango Star. She is giving compliments to Nyango Star in that video, meaning that she is just behind the camera.

Using Japanese mascot culture for good. :)

Nyango star + Babymetal is something special

Nyango Star killed it 👍
And didn't even blink ONCE
For metal drummers, every day is leg day.
Awesome reaction/review, thanks!
Actually I feel sorry for the 11 people who disliked it. You are zero fun, guys! 😁
I'm not sure the cat could utilize a larger drum set in that stubby armed suit.

One thing is sure it’s not Yoshiki coz there’s a video of him watching nyango star playing one of his X JAPAN song in front of him😂

Legend🤘🏻🔥
Tonight on To Tell the Truth... Will the Real Nyango Star please stand up...
Really Fun reaction to a great performance!
Like the nameless ghouls of Ghost I wonder how well these players can see with their stage gear?

Full transparency and full disclosure David, I think 99,9% of the BM fans prefer the live version of RoR also :D.
Nyango Star the lost BABYMETAL drummer. or better yet have amuse hire NYANGO STAR to drum for BABYMETAL.
I wouldn't have been surprised if he/she _did_ pass out after that song.
«After Tuesday, even the calendar says WTF.», unknown.
So do I after seeing this... WOW!

By the way ... That will be the new Outfit for the Kami band !
野暮なことは言いたくないですが、彼(?)はぬいぐるみではなく生身のにゃんごすたーです😺🍎
ちなみに、Yoshikiの前でプレーしたことがあるので、Yoshikiではないですよ…😂

Everybody thinks the live version is better.
Inside Nyango, I presume, is Mr Aoyama. He seems to be busy with a job on the side.
Hmm.. guess you cant mention that site. Im "creator of lily", thanks for reacting, glad you had fun.

This song is a collab with dragonforce.
This particular song of Baby Metal, Road of Resistance was written by Dragonforce. Hence why you can hear that :)
And if you haven't watched David's reaction to the original live version check it out, it's one of the best out there!
@@MonochromeMemories I was not aware of that, thanks for the reply.
@@monkut Thanks, makes sense now.
You should listen to you decide by Fireflight!
Nice
All I know is he/she is from Japan. I already forgot the city.

Definitely not her, if you have seen nyango star's audition performance video with MTH
@@AngelLWJwhich video. The one I saw it was her singing her parts from inside the costume. Nao is nyango star.
@@Charles0002 Maybe you can find it on youtube, there is an audition held by MTH, nyango star is one of them, he played drums with/in front of all MTH members, including nao

The character is a "he," but supposedly the person in the costume is a woman.
No. It's most likely a man.
Nyango starr is the alter ego of Nao Kawakita, the drummer of Maximum the hormone.
違いますよ😊男性です
