The 2nd show was essentially the same as the first one. It features the same setlist and members, as well as the same entrance scene. The key difference is at the end. During the final scene a 3rd person appeared on the stage in front of the 3rd coffin, but so far nobody has been able to identify them (or whether it was Momoko).

There were three announcements made at the end of the show. The first was a new set of performances called “BABYMETAL BEGINS – THE OTHER ONE” for April 1st (FOX DAY) and April 2nd in Yokohama, Japan, as well as the return of THE ONE membership 2023 for April, and a WOWOW broadcast of “BABYMETAL RETURNS – THE OTHER ONE” for April 25th (this is on top of the already-announced “BABYMETAL RETURNS – THE OTHER ONE – PREMIUM EDITION” Live Viewing in theaters across Japan on February 23rd).

In addition, on March 25th (one day after THE OTHER ONE releases), there will be a WOWOW broadcast (premium Japanese TV channel) of these shows. It will be at 8 PM on WOWOW Prime and WOWOW On Demand.

“BABYMETAL RETURNS – THE OTHER ONE” Show Reports:

It is the revival of the BABYMETAL team where members, staff and fans are united. It all ends and begins on FOX DAY.

It’s written in Thai, probably because of his continued good relationship with F. Hero (featured on ” PA PA YA!!”).
