Did anyone buy the Babymetal graphic novel? If so, how is it?

I'm debating whether I want to get it. Babymetal used to be in my top 5 idol groups but I've lost interest in them since all the drama went down. Still, the idea of a comic about them intrigues me. 

 

I didn't buy it but I saw scans. Not my cup of tea at all. It seems like something a 16yo would write. Maybe that's normal for comics but if you liked them when they were still somewhat idols this is not for you either.

Posting here for the sake of completion: BM concerts for this year have start and it seems despite considering them a 2-piece unit for now they didn't change the choreography to fit to two people but instead brought a 3rd girl in. The first concert it was ex Morning Musume member Riho Sayashi, the second concert it was current Sakura Gakuin member Kano Fujihira. In a VTR it was mentioned only the FOD GOD (probably meant Fox, lol) would know who appears so they seem to rotate a number of girls for the spot of girl number three. Whether this is the new formula, how many girls are in the pool and if maybe one of them will end up becoming the full time third member is not known for now. 

 

They also added new tour dates in Europe (even Scandinavia and Russia!) and the new album is called Metal Galaxy (creative name lol) and will drop October 11th. 

 

edit: Apparently it should be 3 rotating girls because of another VTR message regarding "3 avengers". Maybe it's from the same VTR, not sure.

Third avenger appears to be Momoko Okazaki, another former member of Sakura Gakuin.

As expected Riho is on the US tour. And to the surprise of literally no one, after having them hide behind masks the Kami now have been replaced with local musicians, in this case apparently Galactic Empire. It makes a lot of sense from a financial point of view I guess.

Has anybody been to one of their concerts lately?

Thinking about going to the one in Vienna in two weeks. I haven't listen to the new album much yet, but I think it might still be worth going. ^_^

 

Gotta try and find some info on whether Riho is participating in the European Tour. That would be awesome! <3

Well, what do you know? Babymetal finally released a PV. A REAL PV, not one of those of those live performances with the soundtrack replaced by the album version of the song. No avenger in this one too, just Su and Moa:

Now that BM have completed their Budokan shows, a lot of people assume the girls are now taking the time to make their next album. Do you think they'll keep going with the Avengers? A lot of people think the current BM is running out of steam. Amuse Inc has been very busy releasing every kind of merch there is, but fans want new music. They want something new from BM but some people are worried they are losing steam and will disband. I really don't want them to, BM is a group I hold close to my heart because of their talent and music, but I do wonder how they will continue in their next era or phase.

Honestly I wish they would disband and Su would be part of a real band on equal footing not the weird setup they have now. And for Moa I want her to do something else as a soloist.

 

I'm kinda worried that their financial success keeps them in their current weird state.

I have to agree, right now Amuse are getting away with charging fans for all sorts of different merch, but what people want deep down is new music. There's only so much that fans will tolerate.

They announced today that Babymetal will disappear. It is vague in both Japanese and English so it's unclear if this is a hiatus, a disbandment, or simply the end of this era, but it's something.

Amuse has once again worded it so briefly that they know fans are going to have a social media storm with it because BM fans love to have conspiracy theories about it. I feel like Su and Moa are finally being given a little break for now, I believe they are probably finishing their education for now. I do think Oct 10 BM will probably be back with a new album. I love Metal Galaxy and I could last another year with it, but new music and proper music videos would be good!

 

I also wonder what the next phase of BM is going to be like, I know the Avengers has ended so I wonder if they will continue as a duo or actually had a permanent 3rd member or having a rotating thing again but under a different title from Avengers? Loads of things can happen! I am happy for BM to take a break. However, AMUSE PLEASE STOP SELLING RANDOM MERCH FOR THE SAKE OF SELLING MERCH!

New singles dropped:

 

 

 

All elements of Kawaii removed, but was that a surprise?  :c18:  On the other hand, Su is credited for penning Divine Attack's lyrics - no surprise, either.  

 

 

 

I also wonder what the next phase of BM is going to be like, I know the Avengers has ended so I wonder if they will continue as a duo or actually had a permanent 3rd member or having a rotating thing again but under a different title from Avengers? Loads of things can happen!

 

Literally anything can happen now. Yui coming back, a new replacement for Yui, new Avengers under the same/different branding and yes, Su and Moa as lead and harmony vocalist of the "band" Babymetal. Take your pick. The new songs could work with/without choreography.
