In an article about Japan I read a long time ago it said something about what foreigners perceive as wacky, the Japanese see parodies of and nostalgic references to other things(I remember it mentioning Kyary and Gundam in some way but forgot how). Do you guys think it's the same case with BABYMETAL?
I know that Akatsuki is said to be similar to X JAPAN songs', and the Budokan concert title Akai Yoru/Kuroi Yoru is another direct homage to that group. And of course their VTR talking about hugely powerful idols are a reference to the 48 groups.
Any other things you see? Things that are immediately obvious to an idol wota? Things that a metalhead instantly recognize?
