[i] About the Extension of BABYMETAL's Activity

BABYMETAL started as one of the sub groups of Sakura Gakuin. The members of Sakura Gakuin, as its rule, leave the group when they graduate from junior high school. 2013 March is the time for SU-METAL, and their management office Amuse Inc. announced nothing about it, so, until the end of the concert 'Legend "Z"', BABYMETAL's fans were afraid that BABYMETAL may disband.

"The new life" here narrated means the extension of BABYMETAL's activity. Amuse Inc. announced the "limited-time" extension, but the deadline has not announced as yet.

[ii] About "We are..." "BABYMETAL!"

At the end of the concerts (or before the encore), BABYMETAL do the call and response with the audience. BABYMETAL call "We are..." and the audience respond "BABYMETAL!", repeating several times. Then "Three! Two! One!" and they jump. Finally "See you!" and they leave the stage.

At the end of Legend "Z", YUIMETAL & MOAMETAL said "See you!", but SU-METAL said "Take care (of) your neck!".
