■ Aぇ! group
Made a striking CD debut with "《A》BEGINNING" in May 2024, followed by the release of their 2nd SG "Gotta Be" in October and LIVE DVD "Aぇ! group Debut Tour ~Sekai de 1ban AぇLIVE~" in December, both dominating the charts at No. 1. In 2025, on February 18, their group formation anniversary, they released their 1st AL "D.N.A," and on June 18, their 3rd SG "Chameleon."
On February 25, 2026, they released their highly anticipated 2nd album "Runway"! It surpassed the sales of their 1st AL by a large margin, securing the No. 1 spot on the Oricon Weekly Album Ranking with a self-record first-week point of 321,000 pt.
The release of their 4th SG "Dekoboko Life," which will be the theme song for the movie "Osomatsu-san: Humanity's Scumification Project!!!!!?" starring the group for the first time, to be released nationwide on Friday, June 12, has been decided for June 17! It's an uplifting song with overwhelmingly positive messages set to Aぇ! group's signature band sound, and its relentless development is addictive, making it a song that will definitely get anyone hyped up!
Currently, the arena tour "Aぇ! group LIVE TOUR 2026 Runway" is underway, with 30 performances in 8 cities nationwide, promoting their 2nd album "Runway."
