Big Angel has grown even bigger since the last time we saw them<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Even by Japanese standards, idol singers<\/strong> tend to be on the slim and petite size. It is, after all, a music genre that\u2019s largely built around projecting an aura of youthful energy, and a group of slender teens or twentysomethings dancing around the stage works as a quickly understandable visual shorthand for that.<\/p>\n However, Big Angel<\/strong> is one idol group that unabashedly exists at the complete opposite end of the scale, in both a figurative and literal sense. The group has periodically trumpeted the fact that more than half of its members weigh more than 100 kilograms (220.5 pounds), and while there was definitely a bit of a novelty-factor when Big Angel formed in 2018<\/a>, they\u2019re still here seven years later, and have even expanded from five members to seven, each of whom has not only her own personal image color, but also acts as Big Angel\u2019s representative for her favored type of food<\/strong>, such as fried chicken representative Michiko (image color brown) or mayonnaise rep Eripiyo (image color yellow).<\/p>\n Big Angel has been keeping busy, and is currently in the middle of a national tour. They still managed to find time, though, to release a new music video, titled \u201cBaibai Weight.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The bai<\/em> in the title means \u201cdouble,\u201d and doubling it up as baibai<\/em> implies a rapidly increasing or multiplying amount of something. As you can probably guess, \u201cBaibai Weight\u2019s\u201d lyrics are a smorgasbord of references to the joy, and consequences, of big eating<\/strong>, starting off with \u201cUnless we really slim down, our weight is going to be increasing by the minute!!\u201d followed be each idol counting off her current weight. Later they sing about being honestly loyal to satisfying their hunger, \u201cmoving from an idealism to reality,\u201d encourage listeners with \u201cDon\u2019t feel sad when you look at [your weight on] the scale. It\u2019s OK, it\u2019s just a number,\u201d and enthusiastically shout \u201cLet\u2019s go to more all-you-can eat yakiniku buffets!\u201d<\/p>\n If the melody of \u201cBaibai Weight\u201d sounds familiar, it might be because it\u2019s actually a cover of idol group Candy Tune\u2019s \u201cBaibai Fight,\u201d<\/strong> which was released back in the spring, with new lyrics.<\/p>\n\n \u201cWe received many requests from fans to cover \u2018Baibai Fight,\u2019\u201d Big Angel says in the description for their new video. \u201cThe tempo is fast and the dancing was difficult. The lyrics were a tough challenge too, and we spent many days talking everything over with each other and working hard, bit by bit, until the video was finished. We hope that this will be an opportunity for more people to find out about Big Angel.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Reactions to the \u201cBaibai Weight\u201d video have included:<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re all good dancers and singers, so this would be a really high-quality cover even without the new lyrics.\u201d<\/em> Big Angel has concerts coming up next weekend in Osaka and Nagoya, with the last Tokyo date for their tour scheduled for January 26 at Zepp Shinjuku, and their complete calendar posted on the group\u2019s official website here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Related: Big Angel official website<\/a><\/em> Big Angel has grown even bigger since the last time we saw them.

\n\u201cEvery time I watch Big Angel\u2019s videos, it\u2019s amazing how their dance moves are so sharp but also a softness to them.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u201cIt\u2019s cute how they really give it their all as they run to change formations.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u201cThe girl in the red has such a cute idol singing voice.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u201cSomehow listening to this song gives me a ton of energy.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u201cEven with those generous proportions, they dance more intensely than an average-build person but still have an aura of cuteness. It\u2019s got to be the result of both talent and hard work.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
