Agreed. Ladybaby doesn't need a spoonfeeding OP.

>>14270127
It has nothing to do with it. It's not like their parents need that money to survive, she wasn't forced to do it.

>Would you prefer if just like the dozens of touhou threads on /jp/ at any given moment, each other otaku hobby had multiple threads, many of them useless shit like "would you fug x" or "how does y's tummy sound like"?

Yes, frankly. I'd much rather have a dozen "Sanae is a slut" shitposting threads over a single general thread any day of the fucking week. At the very least those guys are posting them because they want to bring shit up, as opposed to most people who post general threads soley to avoid getting them bumped out of existence, despite not having anything to actually talk about.

But it's the same thing? Shitposting, just in different threads. It's not like people are going to stop talking about Touhou (it's a constant topic). I also imagine most of the guys making these silly threads are just bored out of their minds, and not exactly having an epiphany.

I know it's a board culture thing, but I don't personally see the problem.

The 300-400 posts in a thread after it hits bump limit are there because people are too stupid to notice that the thread has hit it, I presume.

I sat down and watched part of that 30-minute interview with some random j-vlogger, and he really does seem like a chill and fun down-to-earth guy.

I didn't know that he was cross-dressing on his own time since he was 14, I always figured it was just a meme character that he came up with and it stuck.

In LA, he was very nice. Talked to everyone, cool with poses, hugged everyone even after the long day, seemed like a genuinely nice guy and thanked everyone often.

He said he started as a way to stop getting bullied, because no one wanted to get beat up by a guy in a dress (his sisters stuff or something) and stuck through his wrestling career in china.

but you can see has no problem taking the mask off for that, whereas he never takes it off for Death Rabbits, probably because image is like the top priority in idol groups

>Is there any DR lore?

I'm sure it's pretty deep but my Japanese is very weak and there's only a few songs and other random videos that have been subbed. From what I understand he's the leader of the Death Rabbits Army and alien invasions are a common theme

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7yatiyOwPc

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvTdt6IIjjU

That being said they make very little effort to reinforce the lore and keep it serious, which is half the fun. Bucho's supposed to be a big strong guy and leader of the Death rabbits army but half the time he's being bullied by Yuzu (belly-chan) so yeah.

an album that was 80% recycled songs from singles, they were releasing at least four songs a year (two 2-track singles with extra-track limited editions) between their first single and their album, but then again that's the way of the idol business. Ladybaby should still strike while the iron is hot though, or maybe they're wanting to increase their popularity in Japan as well.

Actually my only concern in Japan is Ladybeard himself, we don't care about a crossdressing man as a lead screamer, hell, that might be a plus for some people, but for japanese idol wotas Ladybeard cab be a huge turn off, i hope Rei/Rie is enoguh for them.

Now, internationally, LadyBaby's niche is very limited, screams are not mainstream at all and i have to reckon that metal audience like myself can be real assholes when we don't see a group with their own instruments.

To improve LadyBaby i think Ladybeard needs to take a secondary role and let Rei/Rie take the lead that way idol wotas can be happy. they all need improvement in the vocals and a band, if they want to increase and sustain their following outside idol market.

I'm guessing that's why Bucho from Death Rabbits keeps the mask on, that way he's not a threat to the fans' masculinity and they can sort of project themselves onto him. He's also mostly a background actor and supporting member for the girls, if not a father figure.

On the other hand, yeah, a crossdressing screaming giant muscled foreigner manhandling two Nippon qts might not have the best domestic wota appeal, if I'm picking up what you're laying down there.

>Now, internationally, LadyBaby's niche is very limited, screams are not mainstream at all and i have to reckon that metal audience like myself can be real assholes when we don't see a group with their own instruments.

They're definitely feeding off the crumbs that Babymetal left behind, so is every other "kawaii metal/death pop" group out there. There's definitely potential for all those groups to get bigger, whether that's domestically or overseas is a bit of a coin toss I think.

>>14286564

It's not nothing, but anyone can do that if they're willing to take a loss (money). I'd be surprised if they broke even (unless they sold a shitton of merch). It's not really avoidable though since you have to get your name out there and test the waters somehow.

>>14286529
They're in kind of a weird position. They're probably not going to gain mass wota support. Which, honestly, I'm okay with. Their audience is made up of people who can just enjoy them and have a good time. It's nice to have something refreshing in the idol scene. Wotas are great for sales and group longevity, but... you know how they are. They're definitely not going to get international metal support; Babymetal has a hard enough time with that, and they're pretty much the real deal. If Ladybaby is actually trying to attract metal fans (I don't feel like they are), they're doing it completely wrong.

I don't think they're going to get widely popular, and that's okay. Not every group has to get huge. They're a fun group, and interactions with them right now are fairly personal. If they get too much bigger, they can't do that anymore, and I think they'll lose some of what attracts people to them.

They've already won awards from the metal music scene and have played, with positive reception, at some of the biggest metal festivals.

I think that Ladybaby is trying to attract the Babymetal crowd, plain and simple.

The fact that they're sharing the stage with Death Rabbits shows that individually they're not much of a draw, but if all the "kawaiii metal" groups join forces they can make it into a thing.

well no, Babymetal had the full live band since well over a year ago. If ladybaby gets themselves a live band as well they can make their way to the western metal scene as well. Same with Death Rabbits.

BABYMETAL have straight-up metal songs, and most of their other songs are recognizably metal despite other influences. All of the LB songs are at best like "Iine." Besides a live band, they need a bunch of completely different songs to appeal to the metal crowd.
