AbiGirl's 1st time listen & reaction to "Honkai" live by Band-Maid!

[@BillHallisey]

Permission granted! Everyone who hears this intro plays it more than once.

[@philproffitt8363]

And singing along by the end of it!!!..."doo doo doo...doo doo doo..." 😁

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Its cause it's too good!

[@ziggyphoto]

Abi, there is no such thing as rewinding too far back when watching a Band-Maid video. Nice reaction!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Thanks ziggy!

[@ApocryphalBob]

Absolutely could listen to the Thunder Buddies on repeat. 😎🤘

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Same!

[@BillHallisey]

Another thing I love about "Honkai" is that near the end of the song there is an perfectly synchronized bridge by both Kanami and MISA that gets your attention.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I noticed, it was great!

[@kieranbuffini8632]

Best rythm section on this Globe 💙💙💙💙🔥🔥

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

🥰🥰🥰

[@patrickwest2288]

This is such a good song. Thank you for the reaction 🤘❤

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Thanks for watching ^_^

[@daviddodd7581]

How many intros to a song do you hear that open with bass and drums?This was so good and that's why bandmaid are really becoming one of my favourite bands so much talent equal to anyone!Great choice Abbi loved it.♥

[@DarrellW_UK]

Quite a few from their friends The Warning, but not this good…….. yet!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I loved it and need more indoor intros like this!

[@JBVandriver136]

@@Abigirl_ReactsI’m not sure but they’re videos out that combine their intros into one video which I think there is two of them.

[@JBVandriver136]

I’m not sure who made them (clarification)

[@andersmorell5396]

Thank you for your reaction and welcome to the Unseen World, the name of the album. Have fun! :)

I will, ty!

Funk-Maid, Po! 🕊️

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Heck yea!

[@glenkelley6799]

For two of the most painfully shy girls when they first started with Band-Maid, MISA and Saiki have really stepped to the front of the stage in the last couple of years. This is one of the better openings and pushes out of first place the live intro to "Play" from their 2020 Line Cube Shibuya performance. Thanks for continuing to react to Band-Maid.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Its my absolute pleasure! Thank you for continuing to watch ^_^

[@BillHallisey]

What most guitarists consider amazing shredding, Kanami considers simple background music to the song.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I bet!

[@zinoviylubman5553]

This performance is a new level of Band Maid perfection!!! Absolutely amazing!!! Thanks for your reaction.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Thank you too!

[@garylai363]

I like seeing Miku rock out to the intro, and she's wanting to join in almost. You can see her practice strumming the downstroke with the beat.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I'll have to pay closer attention!

[@davidbicket7201]

Miku looked ready to go from the first beat. Our little pigeon is a legend, her enjoyment of all of this is very contagious

[@JBVandriver136]

Don’t apologize for playing the intro again I think I listened about 10 times before I listened to the entire song which I listened to about 20 times back to back. Can’t help myself they are amazing and their music is sooo good. Best band on the planet.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

The intro was so amazing wasn't it??

[@DarrellW_UK]

That intro was absolutely DOPE! I just wish we would get one this epic from The Warning, I’m pretty sure that they could, there’s no lack of talent! Yeah this was a great song and I just didn’t care that I had no clue what the lyrics meant, it was just so good! Misa and Alé really enjoyed each other’s company when they were together for the collab, they are both shy and introverted and both opened up in each other’s company. If I recall correctly there’s the Japan after show on The Warning’s KZbin channel if you’re interested, there’s a lot of great content in it!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I feel exactly the same, I know Ale can do it. Want to see it live one day!

[@philipcable437]

I'm sure The Warning learned a lot from there two weeks with the maids.

[@DarrellW_UK]

@ I think that was a mutual thing, they did have a lot of fun together and learned about each other’s cultures and personalities.

[@TherealSeriousMoonlight]

Thanks for the reaction!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Thanks for watching ^_^

[@swissystan]

The drumming on this song and in the intro is phenomenal, the bass is absolutely stonking, Kanami is glorious, love that solo (too brief) and that bassy/lead bridge! Rhythm guitar is absolutely locked and driving and then there are the vocals! Actually it is end-to-end and top-to-bottom first class maidery!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Intro is amazing!

[@jamessummerlin9516]

An old bassist dream come true, Misa and Akane trade off intro, love it. Great song by a great band. Thank you.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Best intro ever!

[@Albeewan5869]

[@sailorgunsveteran5260]

this is making me very happy to watch.

[@ericifune5543]

The intro is not on the studio version. They are continually adding intros and solos to their shows in Japan. Occasionally they bring them to the west.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Oh man, it was such a good intro!

[@BM4-Life]

*MISA, MISA, MISA* ==> *Akane, Akane, Akane* best duel on the planet 🦶🥷🦍🍌😋

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Best duo indeed

Singing along by the end of MISA's intro...I'm here for that 👍👍👍😁😁😁😁

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

For sure!

[@Pigeonholed-Po]

Music that the world needs more of

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Yes!

[@bandmaidfanATL]

Kanami always right, Miku always left, Po! Also, angels don't require oxygen 💙

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

You're the second person to talk about angels not needing oxygen, am i missing something?

[@bandmaidfanATL]

@Abigirl_Reacts you asked Saiki to breathe. Not necessary. 😉

[@gill2105]

BM on fire, serious skills .

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

So impressive! 🤘😊🤘

[@MrDportjoe]

I had missed this track earlier and had to jump over to their page and share it with two drummers, two bass players even a mega church music director, Now the drummers are old rock guys , the bass players mostly country and the music ministry guy much more an engineer. Me just bar band crew over 40 years ago.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

🥰🥰🥰

[@Parker--]

Of all the things that Band-Maid not only does, but does exceptionally well, Saiki’s occasional bouts of rapping or pseudo-rapping a bar has to be the most unexpected musically.

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

I gotta hear her rap some more!

[@TomClark-Futoura]

After the awesome year the Maids have had, you can see how LOOSE and CREATIVE they are, and how TIGHT and PUNCHY the band is in their year-ending Spinoff concerts. AND did you hear the melody Saiki sings? Not many can sing or play like they are doing right now! BAND-MAID 2025… get ready!!!!! Thx, Abigirl! 🤘🎀

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

No, thank YOU for watching!

[@TomClark-Futoura]

@@Abigirl_Reacts Yes, but no! I insist. Thank you for reacting! 🫡🤘

Funky intro. Groovy song! Maybe my fave 'deep cut' from Band Maid! ♥ MISA!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

Misa misa misa!

[@mikeholmes5308]

Misa! Misa! Misa! Gotta agree, Abi, MVP on this one for sure... though Akane is a close second. Thing is, of course, Kanami's great playing here aside... she wrote this, of course. So... in some ways Kanami is always the MVP since Alone. She challenges the others to play at these levels. Including herself. Great reaction as always! You rock!

[@Abigirl_Reacts]

100% agree, thanks Mike!

This song is growing on me. It is very busy -- progressive. Three instruments simultaneously demanding that we listen to it. And Saiki. But everyone shines, and it repays many listens. Great intro.
