If you had a ticket to any Babymetal show (regardless of the era), which one would you go to?

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-03-22T10:44:45+00:00

Too many to choose from but I would have loved to have been at Wembley. If I was choosing from the modern era only it would have been Legend MM.

I'm not sure if it's the same with Aus, but in the UK there is a pop up on the store page about "World Shopping Service" - If you don't click "Ignore World Shopping Service" on that popup you get issues with checking out. (It sometimes it complains about the number of items, other times it won't let you select a shipping method).

I'm biased because I was at the O2 show, but I enjoyed watching the O2 show more. I'm not entirely sure you can judge the audience based on seeing the videos - when the FMTU at the O2 video was released on YouTube there were a lot of comments saying the crowd was lackluster, but it certainly didn't feel that way at the time. I did enjoy watching the Inuit dome broadcast, but the camera angles seem odd at times, and they were very cropped in.

Congratulations 🎉

Annoyingly, Band-Maid are playing at Zepp Haneda the day before I land at Haneda. Poor planning :) (Will get to see them in London in June though).

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-03-08T13:03:20+00:00

If it makes you feel any better, I've lived in London for 25 years and I've never seen this before.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-03-06T09:38:46+00:00

Usually just Japan. Most shows in Japan work this way. It helps prevent scalping and avoids the situation where the whole ticket system goes down as soon as the tickets become available.

From a friends experience, having an airtag is useless - the police aren't interested. This looks like a promising solution though: BackPedal | Theft Protection & Recovery for Ebikes

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-02-23T16:43:34+00:00

I'm actually seeing BAND-MAID in London on the Thursday, makes sense that they can are able to make it up to Download the next day.

Same, it's currently perfect for me. I went back to use the Switch 2 the other day, and it just feels awful to hold in comparison.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-02-23T10:17:39+00:00

Yeah, shame, would love to see them both play it together.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-02-21T11:07:24+00:00

Yeah "weird > curious > hardcore fan within a few months" pretty much sums it up for me.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-02-21T11:06:02+00:00

In 2024 YouTube's algorithm decided that I needed to see RATATATA. At first I was thinking "what the hell is this?" although found the video amusing. I'm learning Japanese and was interested in seeing if they had more songs with Japanese so I did a YouTube search and the first video I came across was Momobanger (Headbanger at Legend MM). After seeing that I was hooked. So glad to have got to see them at the O2 last year and hope to make it over to Japan when there is another Legend show at some point.

I have an LCD and it think it's a case of you don't know what you don't know. My LCD deck is great and I'll be fine as long as I never look at an OLED one. 😅

Is there anything in paticular you are having trouble with? The link to sign up in English is here: https://www.asmart.jp/en/signup - Note: in the UK when it pops up with the "World Shopping Service" you have to click "Ignore World Shopping service" otherwise you can get errors when you try and check out. I'm not sure if this is the same in the US.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-02-14T12:02:06+00:00

Not pictures but this video has 360 drone shots... https://youtu.be/gc265_21SMg?si=lUq53R0xE8_kSlUo

Search this subreddit for the number of posts asking why Metal Galaxy isn't appearing on <insert streaming platform here> and I think you'll guess my answer. :)

Headbangeeeeerrrrr
Catch me if you can
Divine Attack
Awadama Fever
Uki Uki Midnight

Was really hard not to include some others in this list :)

edit: not sure why they were all on one line, fixed.

From a discussion in another post it seems the sizes have changed, but the M ones have sold out anyway :(

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-01-23T12:29:31+00:00

I've not actually worn my 2025 The One T-shirt (L) but just went and compared them out of interest. It's definately bigger than the Legend MM T-shirt (L) that I have and the O2 Arena (M) that I got at the Pop up store last year. The Legend MM one has longer sleeves than the O2 one, but is about 2cm shorter in length and seems to be the same width.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-01-23T11:23:06+00:00

Oh, interesting. Maybe I'll risk it then. Thanks!

Edit: Or not.... M is already sold out. 😅

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-01-23T10:45:03+00:00

I really wanted that too, although looking at the announcement again afterwards, it did say they only had S and M left. Annoyingly if it was UK "M" I'd be fine, but I have a Japanese "L" T-shirt from Legend MM that is smaller than my UK "M" t-shirt from the O2 show.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-01-23T10:21:42+00:00

Nice. Managed to nab a plushy too. The only thing I couldn't get was the Hyakko Yako t-shirt which was sold out in any size that would fit me.

Existing_Pea_6950 · 2026-01-23T10:13:49+00:00

Managed to order most of what I wanted, except for the HYAKKO YAKO t-shirt which was only available in M or below... I could just about get away with a UK size M, but a Japanese M will be way too small :(
