| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_17501df2 | comment |
Cool Old Guy: Rob Halford is depicted as a grandfather figure. He plays hide-and-seek with the girls and makes dolls of them at a craft workshop in #122. #17 is a parody of a real episode of the variety show YOU wa Nani Shi ni Nippon e? ("Why Did YOU Come to Japan?") which followed a group of overseas BABYMETAL fans who went to the Tokyo Dome live show in 2016... except here, the fan is Rob Halford. | |

Only Six Faces | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_18a84025 | comment |
Only Six Faces: Maybe inevitable, given the art style. The girls have different eyebrows and hairstyle combinations to tell them apart: Riho have downward eyebrows (like Su and Moa), Momoko and Yui have wavy hair, and Moa's hair is brown. | |

The Cameo: Nogizaka46's Reika Sakurai and Himeka Nakamoto, the hip-hop group Dragon Ash, all three members of Perfume, Red Hot Chili Peppers's Chad Smith, and of course Judas Priest's Rob Halford have appeared. There's also a sketch based on their real debut appearance in the prestigious NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen in 2020, in which they're celebrating the Red (female artists) team's victory with Seiko Matsuda and Hinatazaka46's Kumi Sasaki. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Moa seems to be aware that they're webcomic characters and not the real Babymetal. In #188, released in July 2019 after 7 months of hiatus, Su implies that the author is a bit embarrassed to return and nervous while drawing them. However, this time Moa doesn't understand what she meant. | |

#190 (2019-07-22) discusses the Yamada brewery and their Saiai (最愛) brand sake, which name is written exactly the same as Moa's, making it a collectible item for Babymetal fans. The brewery also happens to be based near Moa's hometown of Nagoya, and she just turned twenty that month so she can drink her namesake sak... nihonshu, although it's not shown. | |

In #199 (2019-08-08), Riho and Su misread げっ歯 (rodents, like guinea pigs) as geppa until Moa informs them that it's pronounced gesshi...* 歯 (tooth) by itself is pronounced ha, and -ha can turn into -ppa in some cases. and that they left their shoe and skirt in the hallway. The title is "Ponko2", a Goroawase Number play on "2 Ponkotsu" or "2 Ditzs". | |

The trio immediately take it as a warning not to be conceited with their viral 2013 single "Gimme Chocolate!" and rush to apologize to their seniors. | |

Our Time Travel Is Different: In #153, Su accidentally time travels after chewing mint-flavored bubble gums (a reference to "Awadama Fever"), and somehow leaves tiny burning trails behind (Moa implies that this is not the first time it has happened, too). She can also conjure a door out of thin air and enter it to teleport elsewhere. | |

Genius Ditz | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_58626d87 | comment |
Genius Ditz: Su-chan is a virtuoso on stage but often a ditzy mess in their private lives. The Japanese equivalent of "ditz" is tennenboke ("natural airhead"), or tennen ("natural") for short. When Yui says that Su isn't a tennen, Su thinks that means she is farm-grown instead. When they receive UberEats delivery gear from Kobametal, the group's producer, Moa freaks out because she knows that Su cannot ride a bicycle and has No Sense of Direction (it's a Shout-Out to the group BiSH, who delivered food in collaboration with UberEats as part of their new single campaign in 2020). Riho is also one, and her mishaps often involve food. | |

Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_598513bb | comment |
Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The Babymetal trio have a sisterly dynamic, but Su as the eldest is very scatterbrained compared to Yui and Moa, and they have no hesitation in scolding their leader. Su offers to help her two comrades with schoolwork, and is dejected upon finding out they've already finished the whole thing by themselves. Yui and Moa are reluctant to accept her help since she's Book Dumb, but remove some of their finished work anyway so they can redo it with her. Himeka is depicted as concerned about her little sister's ditziness.* Himeka herself is rather smart, and went to the prestigious Waseda University after graduating from Nogizaka46. In #109, Himeka goes on a surprise visit to Birmingham to support the homesick Suzuka, right after a four-day concert at Tokyo Budokan with her own group in December 2016... but actually it's Moa wearing a Himeka mask. For once, Suzuka isn't fooled (maybe because Moa is shorter and Himetan taller than Su), but appreciates the gesture anyway. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Su is terrified of insects and other small animals. In #191, she silently freaks out in the subway when she sees a cicada on another passenger's clothing.* A Running Gag ever since she refused to touch a bullfrog in a Taiwanese variety show back in 2013 or 2014, even after Moa and Yui were willing to. Yui is afraid of ghosts, but befriends a Friendly Ghost in a strip.* In their interview with Nylon magazine, Yui revealed that this is her biggest fear. | |

Big Eater | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_5fcedca | comment |
Big Eater: Moa. One strip even pays homage to Spirited Away by turning her into a pig. In #186, while eating cake, Su mentions that she would like to be a police chief for a day (a usual PR event in Japan), and Moa approves of that while stealing her cake. Su's first action as police chief is to arrest Moa for that crime. Riho is also one and finishes the entire group's food with Moa in #207. The starving Kano instantly faints after seeing that. She even eats a paper hamburger and seems to like it. | |

No Sense of Direction | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_69987960 | comment |
When they receive UberEats delivery gear from Kobametal, the group's producer, Moa freaks out because she knows that Su cannot ride a bicycle and has No Sense of Direction (it's a Shout-Out to the group BiSH, who delivered food in collaboration with UberEats as part of their new single campaign in 2020). | |

The Maiden Name Debate | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_6c6d32a0 | comment |
The Maiden Name Debate: In #48, Yui and Moa discuss how if they married a man named Metal, their real names (in Western order) would sound exactly the same as their stage names, but Su's wouldn't (since her name is Suzuka). However, Su misunderstands (or is Becoming the Mask) and thinks her name would be "Su-metal Metal". | |

Recognition Failure | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_6cce8078 | comment |
Recognition Failure: In #55, Su greets a passing bald man because she thinks it's Boh. In #70, Su raises a kitsune sign to a pair of fans she passes by, and is relieved that they don't recognize her. When they are about to perform as Metallica's opening act, Su looks forward to meeting Chad Smith again, unaware that he's in a different band. | |

She's also shown in #195 (2019-07-30) to be overwhelmed by the members' and two other Avengers' accomplishments: Suzuka, Moa, and Kano have been appointed Student Council President in Sakura Gakuin, while Riho was the center performer of Morning Musume; Momoko and Yui held the titles of Ganbare! and Performance Chairperson, respectively. | |

Cultural Translation | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_7d49d74a | comment |
Cultural Translation: In #101, Su messes up the lyrics to "Babymetal Death" and says "Babymetal Dosu" instead, which is in Kyoto dialect, and the other two cover it up by responding in that dialect. The English translation turns Su's mispronunciation into "Babymetal Doth" and they proceed to speak in Flowery Elizabethan English. Suzuka and Nogizaka46 then captain Reika Sakurai, both often described as ponkotsu ("ditzy" in Japanese slang; the literal meaning is "jalopy") or "loose screws" in the translation, meet in #20. When they attempt to deny that they are ponkotsu/loose screws, actual screws start falling from their bodies. | |

Hates Being Alone | |

Hates Being Alone: In the 2018-12-12 strip, a few months after Yui's departure, Moa is sadly reminiscing about her and their combined name MoiMoi (もいもい) when Su receives a call. Su's answer "mosu mosu" (shortening of moshi moshi?, "Hello?", usually with a silent u) inspires Moa to create a new combined name, MoSu (もす). In the 2020-03-15 strip, simply titled "#uaaaaaa", Moa freaks out when Su imitates the Avengers' hairstyle, leaving Moa as the only one with a different look, and quickly attempts to do the same (it's implied to be a prank, which Su and Riho regret once Moa starts bawling).* Moa is the Prone to Tears Cuddle Bug of the original trio, and the only one without real-life siblings. There was also that one time in 2011 when Su listed down the names of all Sakura Gakuin members, but forgot Moa's. | |

Tragic Dream: In the 2020-03-19 strip, Kano declares that she wants to sing "Headbanger!", a song about a girl's fifteenth birthday, while she's still 15 (all three original Babymetal members did so on or near their real birthdays). Given that she's an Avenger (who usually only dances and doesn't sing on Babymetal shows) and it's been too long since her 15th birthday on August 28, this is unlikely to happen, but the others can't bring themselves to say so. On the other hand, she's already standing on a stage platform with Su's mic in hand, so she could sing to them right then and there if she wants to. | |

Hyper-Competent Sidekick | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_cdd676a3 | comment |
Hypercompetent Sidekick: Although Su is the official leader, Moa seems to be more responsible and the Only Sane Woman (except when it comes to food). With Yui gone and the addition of the Avengers, she becomes the Team Mom to two unreliable adults and two former members of Sakura Gakuin's loudest trio, the K.Y.G. | |

No Title | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_ce90c792 | comment |
No Title: The series didn't have an official title until it was given the current one in December 2019. Each story since then also has its own title, written as a #HashtagForLaughs (previously only some strips have titles, which are written as actual Twitter hashtags). However, most people still simply refer to them as the Ariyuki comics, and the Fictional Universe as the Ariyukiverse. | |

Help, I'm Stuck! | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_d6787152 | comment |
Help, I'm Stuck!: In the 2020-02-27 issue, the strong wind in London blew off the first A of the BABYMETAL sign on the Eventim Apollo concert hall marquee (which actually happened in real life), and somehow it ends up stuck around Su's neck (the real thing was not nearly that big). | |

Alternate Character Reading | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_d8827578 | comment |
Alternate Character Reading: In the 2019-12-12 story, the furigana for "DVD" is given as デロリアン (DeLorean).* Su once guessed in a Sakura Gakuin general knowledge test that the last D in CD, DVD, and BD stand for DeLorean, of all things, and it became one of the fandom's most beloved inside jokes. In #176 (2018-07-25), they're playing "Say Hot, You Lose" (暑いって言ったら負け, a popular summer pastime). Su loses because she continues Moa's "moeru" with "atsui haato" (hot heart) like in the "Road of Resistance" lyrics; since the kanji for that part are actually "koutetsu tamashii" (heart of steel), she thought it doesn't count.explanation According to an interpretation, this is related to a Japanese proverb similar to "strike while the iron is hot". #190 (2019-07-22) discusses the Yamada brewery and their Saiai (最愛) brand sake, which name is written exactly the same as Moa's, making it a collectible item for Babymetal fans. The brewery also happens to be based near Moa's hometown of Nagoya, and she just turned twenty that month so she can drink her namesake sak... nihonshu, although it's not shown. In #199 (2019-08-08), Riho and Su misread げっ歯 (rodents, like guinea pigs) as geppa until Moa informs them that it's pronounced gesshi...* 歯 (tooth) by itself is pronounced ha, and -ha can turn into -ppa in some cases. and that they left their shoe and skirt in the hallway. The title is "Ponko2", a Goroawase Number play on "2 Ponkotsu" or "2 Ditzs". In the 2020-07-02 edition, Moa and the Avengers call the various midyear gifts (ochugen お中元) they've received o-Nakamoto since the writing is the same as Su's last name. | |

For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: Played with in #183, where Yui, who recently resigned from the group, dresses up as Yuimetal for Halloween, with mixed reactions. | |

Riho is also one and finishes the entire group's food with Moa in #207. The starving Kano instantly faints after seeing that. She even eats a paper hamburger and seems to like it. | |

Literal-Minded: In #50, Boh asks the girls to make him look cool, and they literally draw fever cooling pads on his bald head. In 2020-07-08, Su thinks that "kitsune possession" means being a fox's Human Pet. | |

Classic Cheat Code | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_e41b38d3 | comment |
Classic Cheat Code: In #210 (2019-12-14), Su tries entering their song title "↑↓←→BBAB" into the Metal Galaxy Fictional Video Game, but puts in the wrong final key.* "Up" instead of "B" The game console explodes. In #213 (2020-01-19), Su mistakes the lyrics again* She sings mimi ("ear") instead of migi ("right"). Maybe because her own ears are larger than average., but this time they're outdoors and nothing happens. | |

Asian Fox Spirit: The trio's patron deity occasionally appears as a giant fox. Normal-sized foxes appear more often. The Five Foxes and Big Fox from the 2017 concerts of the same names have also appeared. Yui once summons the Fox God to ask for candy, but he gives her a bookstore gift card instead. | |

Freudian Slip: Su makes a pun with "want to scream" (叫びたい, sakebitai) and "binge drinking" (酒浸り, sakebitari) and Moa thinks she's going through something (Su's probably fine and didn't realize what she implied). | |

Twin Switch: Suzuka and Himeka Nakamoto are depicted as very similar-looking and attempt this a few times (in fact, the very first 2016-08-17 strip is about Himeka disguising herself as Su-metal), but always thwarted by Yui and Moa because the sisters keep accidentally saying their own catchphrases. | |

Overly Long Scream | |
| Let's Play with Babymetal-chan (Webcomic) / int_f466c9b1 | comment |
In the 2020-03-15 strip, simply titled "#uaaaaaa", Moa freaks out when Su imitates the Avengers' hairstyle, leaving Moa as the only one with a different look, and quickly attempts to do the same (it's implied to be a prank, which Su and Riho regret once Moa starts bawling).* Moa is the Prone to Tears Cuddle Bug of the original trio, and the only one without real-life siblings. There was also that one time in 2011 when Su listed down the names of all Sakura Gakuin members, but forgot Moa's. | |

Su is terrified of insects and other small animals. In #191, she silently freaks out in the subway when she sees a cicada on another passenger's clothing.* A Running Gag ever since she refused to touch a bullfrog in a Taiwanese variety show back in 2013 or 2014, even after Moa and Yui were willing to. | |
