AKB48

major - aktiv (2005 - )
AKB48 is an idol girl group lead by Yasushi Akimoto, an anime and manga scenario writer and producer.

The girls, of course 48 of them, are divided in three groups: Team A, Team K and Team B. The letters are an acronym for Akihabara, a popular neighbourhood in Tokyo known as “Otaku Mecca” and it’s in this neighbourhood that the theatre, in which the girls perform daily, is located.

Just like various other pop groups, the members change once in a while as a girl "graduates" from the group. Of course, the girls are also split up in various other units, usually relating to a special kind of theme.

Right from the start, the group has been a big success in Japan, most of their releases charting quite high in the Oricon charts. Recently, they have also started to focus on foreign countries, with performances in France and the United States.
