These days I've been hooked with BABYMETAL's songs and I found out that the band was a former sub unit of an idol group called Sakura Gakuin. It is somehow like After School where graduation system is implemented. Though in Sakura Gakuin, the members graduates in the group as soon as they also graduates in junior high.

Babymetal still retains the group even after the three had graduated.

Members:

Suzuka Nakamoto - Su-Metal

Moa Kikuchi - Moa-Metal

Yui Mizuno - Yui-Metal

 

 

 

Here is the MV:

Waah Suu-chan is kawaii! And she's the student council president for 2012-2013
