Traxan 148 Posted May 10, 2018 Babymetal kicked off a month-long US tour last night in Kansas City, MO but Yuimetal wasn't part of the tour. Instead there were two unnamed dancers in her place. Yui has been MIA since December, when she didn't appear at a Hiroshima show. The group's management said it was "health issues." I've read in the past she was considered the most frail member of the band but no specifics given. One member of the Japanese Metal Board speculated it might be an eating disorder because she looked very underweight the last time he saw her. That would be bad indeed, as Yui doesn't have weight to lose to begin with. And on goes the trend of young female Japanese musicians with health problems. Why can't they just have a drug or alcohol problem like their western counterparts? (I'm kidding) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LIDL 692 Posted May 21, 2018 I am wondering if this is that graduation thing that Japanese idol group always does? And tbey will bring 7 new faces to replace the 3? However, if it is, I am not sure if this will work well in the Western market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reikatsumi 49 Posted May 21, 2018 I don't think so, they're too young to graduate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
