Japanese dance group Chibi Unity took the stage on Tuesday night during the fourth “America’s Got Talent” live performance show of Season 18. (Read our minute-by-minute live blog.) Once again, they blew the judges and audience away with their synchronized shadow movements and beyond-belief dance moves. Chibi Unity previously made a name for themselves by receiving the group Golden Buzzer in the audition round, and in the September 12 live show they took things up a level as they performed to the song “Renegades” by One Ok Rock. What did YOU think of Chibi Unity’s latest performance?

Heidi Klum: “Amazing! So you are our Golden Buzzer and you did not disappoint. You gave us so many special moments within the synchronicity. Everyone was so in sync, it was amazing. And what I loved the most was when you were walking on top of the backs. We have not seen this before. It was incredible. Well done!”
Sofia Vergara: “Breathtaking! I mean, I could watch you guys perform for hours … four or five hours. That was amazing. It’s surprising. It’s sexy. It’s so artsy. I could tell how much work you put on this, how much passion. I am so happy that you guys are here tonight on ‘AGT.'”
Simon Cowell: “I’m so happy actually for all you, because I think the Mayyas definitely has made a difference to the way we see a lot of dancers now on stage. Because we’re seeing so much more creativity. This was like watching a really cool Nike commercial or something. You’re very stylish. And the music choice was amazing. I really like you, and this was one of the best acts we’ve seen this year.”
Howie Mandel: “By far the best act of the night, hands down. There’s only one word to describe it: Wow!”

Competing against Chibi Unity during the “Qualifiers 4” round were these 10 contestants: magician Anna Deguzman, singer D’Corey Johnson, chorale group Freedom Singers, singer and guitarist Kylie Frey, dancer and contortionist Mariandrea, comedian Orlando Leyba, puppet act Puppet Simon & The Cowbelles, singer Roland Abante, variety act Shadow Ace and acrobat Zion Clark.
Remember, only two of the 11 acts will make it through to the grand finale based on America’s overnight votes. Will Chibi Unity be one of them?
Back in their “AGT” audition, Chibi Unity was the final act of the elongated audition phase. They referenced last year’s winners, Mayyas, for inspiring them to try out for the competition. The group’s routine began in a dark space and utilized shadows at first, before moving on to an eye-popping dance act full of synchronicity. All four judges agreed it was worthy of a Golden Buzzer, so they collectively (along with Terry) slammed their hand down on the button for the final time in Season 18.
