The group performs regularly at TwinBoxAkihabara, in addition to performing live concerts in and outside of Japan. The group performed in Thailand at Japan Expo 2016.[2] Their single "Summer☆Summer/セツナツリ" reached the 9th place on the Weekly Oricon Singles Chart.[3]

History

2012: Formation and debut

Akishibu Project was formed in the late 2012, and debuted officially with Thirteen members on May 24, 2013. However, the group's full scale start up begins in March 2014.

2018: Auditions and major debut

Auditions were held in early 2018 to find members to join the group prior to their major debut. Out of over 1,200 applicants, 21 were chosen to participate in the second round of auditions on SHOWROOM Live, a live-streaming website.[4] Four girls were chosen from the 21 as new members. During their stage debut, Akishibu Project announced their major debut single, "Hola! Hola! Summer",[5] would be released on August 15, 2018.[6][7]
