Rock This Partytimelesz
A group with a 13-year history has evolved into a new form.
Following reforms at their management company, they changed their name to timelesz and launched activities with an eight-member lineup by adding five new members to the original three.
While rooted in J-pop, their ambitious approach—venturing into dance music, R&B, and electropop—stands out.
Since their debut in 2011, they have produced numerous hit songs, earned Excellent Work Awards at the Japan Record Awards, and frequently ranked high on the Oricon charts.
Under the new structure, they are also looking to expand overseas and are actively engaging with fans via social media.
With powerful dance performances and vocal prowess that highlights each member’s individuality, they’re perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy next-generation entertainment.
No LimitTHE RAMPAGE
THE RAMPAGE is a group that, in a good way, gives off that EXILE vibe—their performance energy is incredible, and just watching them gives you power.
I’m sure many people were drawn to them for that very reason.
Even the sheer impact of 16 performers on stage is overwhelming, but the three uniquely talented vocalists have absolutely outstanding singing ability.
And no wonder—they made it through rigorous auditions.
Centered around the 2014 auditions to select EXILE members, they also took part in numerous other auditions, performing in front of about 32,000 people across 17 cities nationwide before becoming official members.
Just like their group name, which means “to rampage,” you can’t help but look forward to the goosebump-inducing performances they’ll deliver from here on out!
NATURAL BORN ERRORSBLVCKBERRY
Since their debut in June 2021, BLVCKBERRY has quickly become a breath of fresh air in the music scene.
They achieved a remarkable feat when tickets for their debut live show sold out in just three minutes, and their subsequent release “2035” topped the Oricon daily chart.
The music created by the five members—Rinnojo Arata, Takuto Kishi, Yuru Shinozaki, Haruto Tsubaki, and Fue Aoi Niwase—captures the hearts of many fans with its exceptional quality.
Their exhilarating performances and commitment to fostering unity with listeners are key aspects that make them impossible to ignore.
Expectations continue to build for their dynamic activities going forward.
Let GoOWV
The audition program PRODUCE 101 JAPAN, which produced JO1 and INI, gave rise to the four trainees who formed the boy group OWV.
Shortly after their debut, they launched a radio show and have since been highly active, releasing a photo book and holding live events.
A major hallmark is their content distribution on YouTube and TikTok.
Watching the members take on various challenges will naturally turn you into a fan.
Timeless Lovenaniwa danshi
When it comes to idol groups that fully showcase sparkling cuteness, Naniwa Danshi is the one! Produced by Tadayoshi Okura of Kanjani Eight, they made their debut on November 12, 2021 with the single ‘Ubu Love (Shoshin LOVE).’ It debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and sold over 700,000 copies in its first week.
On the other hand, their second single ‘The Answer’ is a complete change from their debut, trading in cuteness for a cool track with intense choreography.
We can’t wait to see even more sides of these seven members!

Rain of starsWEST.
Each member of WEST is active across a wide range of fields, and the group has a strong reputation for high vocal ability.
They’re a seven-member idol group from the Kansai region who debuted on April 23, 2014 with “Ee ja nai ka.” That song captures a distinctly Kansai festival vibe, but their individual vocal prowess and group cohesion in ballads are also worth noting.
Because they experienced a period when debuting didn’t come easily, they can create music that only they can—making them a group you can’t help but want to support.
If you’re curious, definitely give them a listen!
