Summons Ceremony   in "Black Night"

Now... I will tell you all about the Metal Resistance...

This was the world where the overwhelming magic of the big power "Idols"
controlled everything such as mass media, politics, economy.
All music other than idol songs were seen as harmful,
and the Metal was no exception.

The prayer of the apostles who wished the restoration of the Metal
reached the Fox God who is in charge of the Metal,
and the Fox God named the three girls:
SU-METAL, YUIMETAL & MOAMETAL
as "BABYMETAL" which means the birth of a new metal
whose theme is "the fusion of the idols and the Metal"
and sent them down to this world.

In order to get the true Metal,
the Fox God gave BABYMETAL many trials.

All were unknown worlds to them.
The girls who didn't know the true Metal had no way
but to stand up to the trials, believing their own power.
Though they were young, they pushed forward on the way without a path
and changed many given trials into legends one after another,
and people were touched to see that.

The clock hands have begun to move.
The Metal spirit has brought new breath to this land.
The national maestro who is powerful in the mass media
and, at last, the members of the big power Idols
have raised the fox signs which are the symbols of the Metal Resistance.

The Metal spirit has turned into the crimson flame,
has changed the jet-black darkness into a white night,
and, like the sun that doesn't set,
keeps on radiating the vivid crimson light.

The Fox God tells BABYMETAL:
"The first chapter of the Metal Resistance has been completed in this land.
Then, to send up a new signal fire, leaving this land, I summon you to a new world.
The time has come. Now we will advance to foreign lands."

[Summons]
Doomsday time has come.
It is time to depart.

Scream and dance, MOAMETAL,
scream and dance, YUIMETAL,
and, vocal and dance, SU-METAL.
You must leave now.
It is time to depart.

In two-thousand and ten, BABYMETAL was formed
at the root of the theme: Kawaii Metal.
The meaning is the mixture of J-pop idols and Heavy Metal.
BABYMETAL is receiving attention of all over the world.
They are on the road of the one and only.
BABYMETAL say good-bye to Japan...

Prologue to Summons Ceremony   in "Black Night"

[Doomsday
Summons]
On the night when the crimson flame burns down everything
    and this land is enveloped by the jet-black darkness,
finally the time of fate comes,
towards the end of the Metal Resistance...

On the morning of the day when they depart for the new stage,
like the sound of a small bell gradually changes into the sound of a big bell,
BABYMETAL are going to be summoned into the giant magic circle.

The Fox God said
"Because there is an end, there is a beginning".
And then the sound of the bell that tells the end of the Metal Resistance
and tells the opening of the new legend
resounds from the giant magic circle.
Long ago, the Godmother who is the mother of the Fox God said
"It is you who shall ring that gong".

Prologue for BLACK BABYMETAL   in "Black Night"

In the cyber city "A-KIBA",
seeing the latest movie of "Happy Grape Man", their favorite anime,
YUIMETAL and MOAMETAL got very excited.
They were impressed with "Happy Grape Man" which was full of yahman and love & peace,
and, absorbed in chatting, they kept walking.
Then the onion shining on the roof...
No. From the building on the roof of which the grapes were set,
the song of 4ppiness was heard.
What! There stands the real Grape Man!
"If you show me true reggae, I will give you true '4ppiness'!"
When they have eaten the "happy grape" Grape Man has given them,
saying "Give me, 4! Give me, 4!",
they change into BLACK BABYMETAL
and start "Begging Operation" unintentionally...
