[EBiSSH]

Members: Rei, Tetta, Naoya, Kouki

Former Member: Hayato

personal rating: 3.5/5
personal note: I first didn't like them much but after getting to know them more, I started to really like these guys. Tetta is my absolute favorite of them but I like them all. Also their debut song is very nice but the still have to improve their singing skills a lot because sometimes they sound terrible live. >_< I like them anyway and I am sure they can improve.

Members: Kazuki, Ryoki, Kouki

personal rating: 3/5
personal note: It's so difficult to find music of them but I guess that's also because they are still very new. Howver what I found was good so I am looking forward to more releases of them. Besides they released their first single ind January 2018.

Active since: 2015

Members: Urasaki Ukyou, Kawabe Hayato, Kubota Kouki, Zaizen Yuichi, Takatsu Kazuki, Tanaka Nachi, Ichikawa Hiroki, Hayashi Yuuichirou, Maejima You, Morishita Takumi, Wakana Genki, Wada Shougo, Izachi Raito, Oooka Taizou, Ookoshi Saigo, Kuroda Ayumo, Koyama Shun, Satou Hayate, Sugiyama Mahiro, Taniguchi Yuuki, Nishihara Ryuuhei, Hagie Maki, Fujii Rikuya, Yonemaru Hinata

personal rating: 3.5/5
personal note: Ok so these guys are not a group but they will be one or at least some of them. This is a project started by Junon a very popular japanese idol magazine. The group of boys has been split into two teams, team youth which are all the under 18 y.o. guys and team seniority which are all the members above 18 y.o.! In the end one team is supposed to win and this team will release a cd. However originally this project should have been ended in spring of 2016 but it seems like they decided to do it a little longer. I can't wait for the results thought I will for sure be sad no matter which team will win cause I like members of each team and to be honest I wish they would just do a mix team that wins, like taking all the popular ones in one group. I guess that would be a much better idear. Now you might think why they are on the list when they aren't a group but even though they are no official group they do perform on stage and they have a few original songs.
