Babymetal have announced they’re to star in a new web series that mixes animation with live-action performances.

“In the upcoming short, SU-METAL, YUIMETAL, and MOAMETAL must come together to enter the animated world through a secret portal,” reads the blurb.

It’s set to debut in the US, though a date is yet to be confirmed.

The band recently released second album ‘Metal Resistance‘, and will be supporting Red Hot Chili Peppers on their upcoming tour.

The seven-date run kicks off on 5th December at The O2 and ends ten days later at Manchester Arena:
