Notes

  1. "Inazuma" means lightning. The festival was so named because the first kanji of "滋賀" (Shiga) resembles the fork lightning.
  2. I guess BABYMETAL performed for over 10,000 nearly 20,000 of audience at the Inazuma. The Summer Sonic is a bigger festival, but BABYMETAL performed on one of its sub stages.
  3. ℃-ute (Cute; the first letter is for degree Celsius) is a five-girl idol group (17yr.-21yr.) which belongs to Hello! Project (one of the sister groups of Morning Musume.).
  4. Miss MOA once reported one of the overnight trips of BABYMETAL in the school journal of Sakura Gakuin:
        Miss MOA and Miss YUI shared one room of the hotel and Miss SU shared another with a woman staffer. But Miss SU, feeling lonely, came to YUI&MOA's room and the three slept in one bed after all.

  The transcription (.srt file) is below.


1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,400
[TN] We have received the messages from the artists 
who performed at the Inazuma Rock Fes.  *1

2
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:07,900
Now we introduce one of them. Here it comes!

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,100
[SU] Good evening, the audience of "Gocha-mazet"!

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:12,100
I am SU-METAL.

5
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,300
[YUI] I am YUIMETAL.

6
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:14,400
[MOA] I am MOAMETAL.

7
00:00:14,500 --> 00:00:16,900
[BM] We are BABYMETAL!

8
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,600
[SU] Today we performed at the Inazuma Rock Fes.

9
00:00:20,700 --> 00:00:26,200
We have performed at music festivals 
in several palaces this summer.

10
00:00:26,300 --> 00:00:31,100
Of these festivals, the amount of audience for us
was the biggest at the Inazuma Rock Fes.  *2

11
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:36,400
Since we were going to perform in front of so much audience,
we were very nervous before the concert.

12
00:00:36,500 --> 00:00:42,400
But we felt so good with the wind from Lake Biwa,

13
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:46,200
and the audience was warm-hearted 
and got into our performance,

14
00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:49,400
so we enjoyed the performance very very much.  
[YUIMOA] Yes.

15
00:00:49,500 --> 00:00:56,500
[SU] Then, here are four cards named "I", "NA", "ZU", "MA",
on which four topics of talk are written.

16
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,700
[SU] Now we will draw them one by one 
and will talk about the topic.

17
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,000
Who will draw first?

18
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:04,800
[MOA] Well, MOAMETAL tries first.

19
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:07,100
[MOA] I draw "ZU" of "I-na-zu-ma".

20
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:14,500
Tadah!  Q: "What do you carry always with you?"

21
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,000
Since MOAMETAL likes the idols very much,

22
00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:24,000
I always carry the idol clear folder 
of Miss Airi Suzuki of C-ute, whom I like very much.  *3

23
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:29,300
And I always carry a doll, a monkey doll with me.

24
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:35,100
[SU] Yes. I often see you sleep with holding it 
in the Sinkansen train car, Miss MOA, the monkey doll.

25
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,900
[SU] And then which one?

26
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,200
[YUI] Well, YUIMETAL draws "I".

27
00:01:40,300 --> 00:01:41,400
[SUMOA] Oh!

28
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:45,400
[YUI] Tadah!  Q: "Who is the most girlish of the three?"

29
00:01:45,500 --> 00:01:50,600
[SU] Oh.  [MOA] Who is the most?
[YUI] It may be SU-METAL or MOAMETAL. I wonder which.

30
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:53,000
SU-METAL? I guess SU-METAL is the most girlish.

31
00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:56,900
[MOA] But I guess YUIMETAL can be the most girlish.
[YUI] You guess so?  [SU] How about yourself?

32
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,300
[YUI] I think SU-METAL is the most girlish of the three.
[MOA] I think so, too.  [SU] Why?

33
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:09,000
[YUI] SU-METAL is the oldest of the three and leads others.
I think that is the coolness of the girl.

34
00:02:09,100 --> 00:02:11,700
[MOA] Right. [SU] Is that girlish?

35
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,700
[YUI] She is girlish though a bit of scatterbrain.

36
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,100
[SU] I don't think so.  [YUI] You are girlish.
[SU] I don't think so.  [YUI] Very girlish.

37
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,500
[SU] Well, then SU-METAL draws "MA".

38
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,000
Q: "What behavior do you want other members to change?"

39
00:02:27,100 --> 00:02:29,600
[MOA] Oh dear! Will you really say it?

40
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:39,100
[SU] Well, YUIMETAL and MOAMETAL 
are really hyper at night on an overnight trip.

41
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,100
They don't let me sleep readily.  *4

42
00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:44,300
But they won't wake at all 
when I wake them up in the morning.

43
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,300
YUI and MOA, try to wake up quickly.
[YUIMOA] Yes, ma'am. We are sorry.

44
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,400
[SU] Please try.
[YUIMOA] We will try.

45
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:57,100
[SU] And BABYMETAL perform at the Makuhari Messe
on December 21st. It is our first solo arena concert.

46
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:05,500
[MOA] And we release the live DVD/Blu-ray for the first time.
Please visit our official site for the detailed information.

47
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,400
[SUMOA] We beg your kindness.

48
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:10,100
[YUI] Then, listen to "MEGITSUNE", please.

49
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,800
[SU] This was BABYMETAL.

50
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:13,800
[BM] See you!

  2. http://baw.babymetal.jp/

    Could you help me translate the contents of the website to english? This link was just posted by BabyMetal's twitter account today! I tried using google translate but of course the word sequencing is very awkward and a lot of it still doesn't make sense. Any help would be much appreciated!

    1. Roughly speaking, it seems to be something like the official fan club of BABYMETAL.
      Paying 3500 yen for the registration and the binder of the booklets and the booklet #1.
      And the members site offers the special contents. The articles I to X describe the members' benefits.
      I will translate them later.

      The registration key is to include in the package of the binder and the booklet #1.
      Q&A 9 tells:
      The foreign fans can buy it through the oversea shipping agent http://tenso.com
      Q&A 10 tells:
      The foreign fans can register for so-called fan club but there may be some limitation for foreign members.

  3. So basically if I buy the "LIVE LEGEND I、D、Z APOCALYPSE" Blu-Ray for 3500 yen (plus shipping costs), I'll get a booklet with a registration key for BabyMetal Apocalypse Web and I can register free of charge and enjoy whatever benefits there is (with limitations since I'm a foreign fan)? Is that it? Did I get this correct? Thanks so much for your help! I really appreciate it!

    1. No. These are two separate items:
      "LIVE - LEGEND I, D, Z, APOCALYPSE -" is the Blu-ray disc.
      "BABYMETAL APOCALYPSE" is the package of the binder and the booklet #1 with the registration key for the members site.
