From a supermarket discount aisle to the Budokan. A crash course.
2015
July 19: four schoolgirls form the group. Legend says they met in a supermarket discount aisle — “the era called us, we linked pinkies”. First song: a “噛むとフニャン” remix (tofubeats) for a Fit’s gum commercial.
2016
An aimyon-written track on LINE MUSIC, a Koikeya collab, the first self-hosted event “Hamidashi Festival” and a SHIBUYA109 storefront.
2017
“毒花” on Victor Entertainment (prod. H ZETT M). The song becomes the theme of the drama “Joshu Seven”, with the girls cameoing — in sailor uniforms, as prisoners.
2018–2019
マエナラワナイ and 若気ガイタル. Singles 最終人類, 狼の詩, 恋ゲバ — punk energy and self-made choreography.
2020
The US label (hi Rich Brian and Joji) signs the group for the world. Plus a digital single trilogy including the future legend — オトナブルー.
2021
“NAINAINAI” — and the world learns the name ATARASHII GAKKO!. The SNACKTIME EP, recorded in LA with Money Mark (yes, of the Beastie Boys orbit).
2023
The “head-shaking dance” blows up TikTok: 2.5 billion views by June. Jimmy Kimmel Live!, first Kōhaku (opening the show!), Japan Record Awards, buzzword of the year.
2024
Jan 9: first solo Budokan show (“青春襲来”). Spring: Coachella (closing the GOBI stage), summer: Primavera Sound. Theme for the Japanese cut of “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire”.
2025
Anniversary show “宣誓” at Makuhari Messe, exactly on the group’s birthday. Best album 新しい学校のすゝめ (Oricon #9), Music Awards Japan wins, matsuri ’25 in LA with YOASOBI and Ado.
2026
New album, singles Oi AG! and TTTTOKYO. KANON takes a forced hiatus (back) — and returns in September. The story continues.
