What happened to Moa Kikuchi? (菊地 最愛 Babymetal Montreal)

[@lilykittenflooffell6163]

She threw it off the stage to avoid any accidents (tripping over it). How professional (: I love her

[@stayblessed4real]

Army?

[@vypukas]

Is she dead?

[@bmarie17]

Vytautas Preiksa bruh no she’s not dead

[@bradkornatowski3866]

MOA keeps the stage clear, I have seen her throw stuff aside a few times...

[@ingainloggningsnamn]

and so "experimented" lul

[@Raeleen]

Moa is legit professional. There have been so many cases like this. One is at Budokan when the microphone was rolling away from the stage lifter and Moa gracefully retrieved it before it got too far. Two: At the LA show when she fell during a dance (I think it was GC?), she literally fell on the floor, but got right back up like nothing happened and finished the song and set. Three: During Sonosphere? Was it that festival? When her ear-piece volume was not on so she could not hear her queue to begin her chorography in unison with Su and Yui. Once Moa realized she did not hear the queue and was the only one who was standing still and had not begun the song, she managed to find the rhythm and continue even though she could not hear through her ear-piece. That may sound like no big deal, but you also may not know what it sounds like when you are on the other side of the speakers and can only hear a loud crowd of thousands of people in front of you. You think you can hear the guitars behind you? Think again, they are electric and hooked up to speakers.

[@bibi_25]

I think also is bad luck x3 always is Moa haha, in a hedobangya song she fell too and she just got up in a second and finished the last part of the song like a pro :D

[@Soufriere84]

+Yoonbum - Yui did fall off stage during Headbanger at Budokan Red Night and came back for IDZ. However, during IDZ's WoD run, Moa slipped and sprained her ankle. There's video of her during the song avoiding putting weight on her left foot and trying not to cry.

[@kittylols]

Raeleen what the last one during the song Babymetal Death when Yui and Su started the part where they bring their arms around and Moa was just standing there with the fox signs?

[@rodrikapooo]

alguien que se molesto en ver detalles tanto como yo,,tienes mis respeto

[@0okamino]

@Soufriere - Since it was built as a martial arts arena, Budokan had to challenge these unlikely contenders, of course. Despite the incidents, BabyMetal emerged victorious (and I don't know of any incidents like this on Black Night, so the spirit of Budokan must have accepted their victory). :)

[@eulzthemedium]

When the mask hit Moa, Su-chan looked and felt sorry. how cute :> however, Moa-chan is very professional! :D

[@aidanxavierglass737]

She is Super Moa-chan after all

[@reezlaw]

She integrated the move in her choreography, it was so seamless that I didn't even notice it. What a pro

[@goingpeacefully8977]

Moa is very professional at such a young age. Just shows she's a good artist/dancer/band member. And Su is kind hearted.

[@cz6301]

Yui fell off the stage in Japan and they finished the song without her, not knowing what happened.

[@itsamina5363]

they knew but they can't stop because they were trained to never stop performing if something happens

[@alexdhamp]

Has more to do with their sense of work ethic and professionalism than them being "trained" to keep going.

[@dankmheems290]

Guns 'n Roses would have cut the cord and yelled at the audience before storming off the stage crying.

[@ClaraScarangella]

this happened in budokan, right?

[@DeePal072]

Yes, the Red Night

[@stevenjimenez6977]

That's why I like these girls so much.

[@constantinosxenos5567]

The hard work and discipline required for artists to go through productions is unbelievable!!baby metal just proves the rule...so talented!!!

[@deucemcallister13]

This actually just happened again too! At the Brixton show in 2019, Su's arm cuff came off and Moa nonchalantly tossed it away. I adore these ladies so much and miss Yui so much.

[@thisdamnthingy]

She got whacked, reacted, then immediately kept going. That, is metal.

[@gojosatoru2942]

Always remember the worD RESPECT.. WE LOVE YOU BABYMETAL ALWATS!

[@Lionspel]

Yeah at 01:41, she threw the mask to prevent them from slipping into it. She's awesome! I just can't stop laughing at her professionalism and cuteness when she threw that mask. I wonder why Kitsune-sama (mask) flew onto her like that? Hehe.

[@sarcasm4905]

Only the Fox God knows

[@tcsun829]

I think Su-metal needed to throw it off the stage, but the wind blew it back then hit Moa. And Moa helped to grab it and throw it off the stage again without changing and affecting any dancing movement. Wow! How can she do that!? I also remember, once, the mask was hitting against a woman who was standing by the edge of the stage.

[@mboshoff3995]

So a kitsune mask flies in a circular trajectory like a boomerang... I'm keeping that in mind for my Babymetal Vigilante arsenal! :D

[@0okamino]

No, it doesn't work like that. It would just hit Moa again, no matter where she is.

[@maxotaurus5140]

0okamino LOL

[@ms.mittenz]

Japanese people are "trained" to not fail

[@a.a7267]

Ayla Soares well these girls have made mistakes many times and handled them professionally, plus these girls fool around a lot in their shows.

[@ms.mittenz]

i know, i love them, but it still applies to them :P

[@MayanMercernary]

I thought it was North Koreans

[@kawaimetal1686]

Ayla Soares Japan is magic and people are almost 100% perfect 😊

[@nickcdrw]

The best is their trained as profasional not trained like a dog like the kpop is.

[@Hebchabsbc]

Holy cow, that was pretty slick! They pretty much utilize the entire stage so it would have been a disaster if left there. Awesome job.

[@dreiacosta]

Moa was like, Su-san, this is the second time you hurt me. First when you forgot to write my name in the list of Sakura Gakuin members then this? You throw a mask on my face..? If this happen again for the third time, it would really be FRIENDSHIP OVER!! xD

[@Althazur_]

Lol I remember that xD

[@mjsantia185]

Then the Hangao battle began. XD

[@Althazur_]

+MJ Santia Omg yea

[@s4dm3t4l]

oh believe me this was not just the second time lol

[@electricpaisy6045]

so that's how it all started 🤔

[@fab208athome]

She is a pro. She wouldn't have any idea where the mask had come from or indeed what it was at first, for all she knew somebody in the crowd could have thrown something at her, but it didn't phase her at all. Babymetal rock.

[@OkieMikester]

Moa never missed a beat. She is so good!

[@woableattack2990]

Even waited for the right dance move to get rid of the mask so the whole performance was not interrupted at all... damn!

[@JuanBetto.]

So much respect to those girls

[@healogix]

I just watched LoGiRL episode 1 .. Moa did mentioned about this incident. And they mentioned about Su-metal and BABYMETAL on first episode. On episode 1 .. Moa Kikuchi, Yui Mizuno and another 3 members of Sakura Gakuin.

[@sigma8ZZ]

曲の最中に、ユイモアが左右入れ替わり、ポジション移動することを考えれば、モアの大胆な行動も、メンバーであるユイのことを考えての配慮だったように思う。 モアの瞬間移動のような素早い手さばきは、狐の神様が憑依した瞬間を垣間見たようだった。それにしても、曲の最中に、一瞬神業のような手さばきは凄すぎる。

[@DHROMAR]

Great observation. And that was pro for sure. I think the performance level of all musicians from the millenium and on will greatly increase. In America for example there are a lot of places similar to something called Rock University, which trains kids for performance as well as teaching them how to play.

[@michaelafrancis1361]

I've seen loads of footage of the girls performing Megitsune and the part where Su throws the mask to the crowd. I don't think I've ever seen her get it into the crowd once. The whole band is at risk when she starts chucking stuff around! She's a fantastic singer but don't sign her up for your softball team. She'd couldn't hit a barn door at three feet ...bless her!

[@cynthiaclarke6874]

Then obviously there's nothing to fret about but I am so glad you upload this video as I get to see Mikio playing as the first guitar.

[@bestintheworld0624]

I'm glad he included the alternate camera angle so we could see that adorable "oh shit I'm sorry" look that Su-metal gave to Moa after the mask hit her.

[@sammygaming9063]

"And look at those faces" Me : HHAHAHAHAHA IM DYING OMG

[@sigma8ZZ]

過去にMoa に起こったアクシデントは、Gimme chocolate のダンスの最中にステージ上に落ちていた紙切れに、足を取られ滑ってしまったことがあった。 kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2bMhnSOjc17aLc Moa の記憶には、このような苦い経験があり、ステージ上に狐のお面が落ちているだけで、足を取られる危険性を考えての行動だったように思う。

[@lovehide2006]

aren cuper おっしゃる通り！アクシデントへの対応能力、判断の的確さなど、まさにプロ DEATH ね！

[@TheJayman318]

Its true how professional these girls are. This is not there first rodeo by far. There stage performance is excellent.

[@h-haru-metal9786]

この、咄嗟の判断力とアドリブ力の高さが今までの名言を生んできた菊地プロの真骨頂！ マジで尊敬します！

[@samomar152]

A pro at a young age. Professionally got rid of the mask. if it was still there she might have stepped and slipped on it injuring only herself. ~ a Moa fan >.

[@MikuTime]

Impressive, I didn't even notice until you showed it very slowly LOL

[@alfredoromans1543]

Ahh... The Legendary Kitsune Boomerang Mask XD

[@DJCD92162095]

Every stars should be like JAPANESE STARS! 👍😊🤝😁🤝😁🤝😁🤝😁🤝😁🙏

[@adventureman5000]

She's a girl of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will!

[@grimricker7397]

CMON PEOPLE, SHIT HAPPENS!! SHE IS HUMAN ALSO, GET OVER IT, SHE IS MOA AND WE LOVE HER !!!!

[@Robobotic]

Omg how she throw it just where exactly Moa was going XD this is a really strange world.

[@ShuriknIbuki]

her reaction is cool,but this should have been a 30 second video

[@Icepacalapse]

All of the kami band members watch out for the well being of the girls

[@RaginKavu]

Good thing that the choreography called from a "arms down" moment! And that thumbnail! Is there a way to get it? It'd be wonderful as a wallpaper!

[@SiVisPacemPara.Bellum]

Nothing can touch perfect Moa-chan 😁💪♥️

[@nofuture_at_all]

Great presence of mind and very professional. Lol at their reactions 2:31

[@TheHouZeR88]

Whats really impressive is its hardly noticeable until it gets pointed out

[@josesoto3711]

She is very beautiful and she is amazing but she also have a strong personality and apparently she did not like the fact that mask hit her but is Mometal so I like ♥it

[@AlizeeDefan]

This was no big thing compared to the time YUI fell off thee stage and got hurt

[@LuisHernandez-666]

Alguien así es difícil de encontrar en este mundo de la música y menos fuera del heavy metal 🤘🏻😈

[@NalinX]

Wait..how... how did she do it ? This video is bringing attention to something which is totally not a trivial matter. I have suspected for many centuries that Moachan is not human ... she belongs to a superior race capable of surviving masks crashing into her under gravity , and also of super-fast mask disposing skills. (Not to forget the totally awesome Kawaii powers which all three of them possess ) .Such skills cannot be overlooked, and the creator of this remarkable piece of evidence should be lauded for his efforts. He is totally not exaggerating stuff. Thank you Mikiko Jane

[@RuFiOPx]

the guitarist was laughing haha 2:12

[@markallenchichioco7181]

that's why I love her

[@biocameron]

That’s so professionally done!!

[@masaonimaru]

We called ''Kikuchi-Pro!!''

[@bestintheworld0624]

I like to think that Su purposefully hit her with the mask as revenge for trolling her lol.

[@markallenchichioco7181]

that's why I love her ❤

[@dudevill4]

lmao at Su and Leda reaction faces

[@Jakri1]

brave girls

[@ziablofullname8549]

Agreed. Yui fell off the stage on Red Night

[@neqproa]

and Moa was injured during IDZ that night too.

[@АлексейВласов-и4п]

Moa is OK. She is a strong Japanese girl. Something would happen to anybody but her

[@nilsensantin5351]

How did you see that and how good you are with this video❤💎💎💎👍🏻

[@l1ghtg30gd7]

0:33 *HEADSHOT*

[@hoyermusic]

i love them, because it was a paper mask. i think she hasn't got any hurts (my english isn't perfect, sorry.)

[@syu-m6261]

まさに菊地プロの成せるワザ❗ 誰が躓くかもわからないと、 とっさの行動でありながら、ダンスは崩さず。 実に見事ですね❗

[@kalqquijano]

I didn't even notice! she's amazing! wow!

[@sickxix]

ill give you a like i love this review!...

[@panglima4832]

what material the mask made of? like solid plastic or wooden?

[@peppermintcatsass3141]

...this should have been world news "Who Hit Our Moa?"....

[@jayjay-imbecile4130]

You scared me like something happened to her leg or something.

[@petrucci15]

ok....could have been a shorter video really, but that was so slick at the end haha....whip it off stage

[@shamanahaboolist]

lol you know she had to get rid of it or she would have probably have tripped on it later x-D

[@mr.j1629]

The show must go on. Like that time Burt from The Used fucked his arm up and played the whole concert dripping blood from his arm. And that's what I admire about these girls, they may be young and all just are very mature(sounds so dirty xD). But again the show must go on. So that just means that they play for the fans and care about them more them themselves. I saw Ozzy and he had a really bad cold for a week so he wasn't at his best, but still he went out and did the show. I've also heard of stuck up bands/musicians/artists who wouldnt do anything unless they had everything their way. If 1 thing was out of line they'd just cancel the whole show and no refund. Yeah shows how much you care about your fanbase.

[@uniquelyqualified3676]

pretty sure that was the fox god

[@Kemrer]

Wow Well done Thank you

[@lancetruong3075]

I think you meant to say "experienced" and not "experimented". The mask was a piece of plastic and it flew back in her direction probably due to a slight breeze and how it was thrown. Please don't make something unintentional into something controversial.

[@wokecults]

Yes. Someone mentioned that years ago. It was a mistake.

[@zandatsu07]

I can't see any wrong in this video ,I only saw is cuteness

[@noneofyabusiness6474]

She also flattened it with her foot during the routine

[@Wis_Dom]

Wow! Mistakes happen to people other than me?!!!! Shocker!

[@oppressorb7196]

Yes, we saw it ^^

[@skyatianlan2356]

So smooth

[@JoseCruz-rf2sl]

So smart!

[@michelmenacho7026]

Anyway, she is so cute at all.

[@jaekun487]

That mask from Su, don't you see that? from 2:20s, Su threw a mask away but it fell to Moa, that was not from the audients!

[@DavidBialeschki]

Whoa ...Moa is a veteran :) #1 talent:)

[@meekrob]

Su was like, "Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!"

[@rafav8898]

:V suzuka's mask :V well done! suzuka, u hit my waifu :V

[@titoshinshi3742]

The mask wanted Moa to put it on . It knows beauty when it sees it !!!

[@2sc458]

She is a trooper. .....A cute one, too.

[@luisenrique014]

Wowwwww

[@rasrindothedubmaster5911]

"Kikuchi Pro"

[@kalopseeia1617]

hit by su chan ^^

[@otacon1024]

I wouldn't particularly mind being hit by her :D

[@ttokkipya]

Professionalism🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@KillerDCInstinct]

I couldnt agree with you more with what you said at 3:16. XD

[@hermanjuli2252]

LOVE baby metal🖤🖤🖤

[@2200Z]

Yeah, she remained calm. But, it was nothing profound.

[@bretwilburn9018]

Su forgot she packed the boomerang mask!!

[@AnimeLover22789]

suke!! Daisuki nano! Babymetal!!

[@michaelafrancis1361]

LOL Su's a menace with that mask. She can't throw to save her life. She always tries to throw it into the crowd and I don't think I've ever seen her hit the crowd yet. She's a fabulous singer but don't have her on your soft ball team because she couldn't hit the side of a barn from the inside!

[@kornival117]

if that was axl rose or bon jovi. "F U, , shows over cuz you guys are being D's"

[@mothergrinder]

Totally talented and i fall in love with them :)

[@toddyzilla6066]

When it hit her u directly throw the camera away to the crowd right away

[@randompinballreviewer9505]

That still of the lead singer she looked horrified seeing the Mask land where it did and could not do much while in the performance. It really did look like a look of of shit sorry about that moment.

[@enri777zz]

EXACTLY!!!!.........🦊🦊🦊
