The New School Leaders talk about their early days on “Sunday First Time Hearing.” “It was fun because there were only four of us.”



■Comments from Kyogen performer Mansai Nomura, who boasts that he is the biggest fan of Atarashii Gakkou no Leaders, and singer Ado, who claims to be their longest-standing fan.

New School Leaders will appear on the MBS/TBS program “Sunday First Time Hearing” on August 18th.

The new school leader will appear in the popular project “Interviewer Hayashi Osamu”, where Hayashi Osamu faces off against the “charismatic figures of the times”. In 2023, nine years after their debut, they made a big break with “Otona Blue”, and their addictive “head-shaking dance” has been viewed over 3.3 billion times on related videos, and has been highly praised by famous artists. In 2023, they made their first appearance at the “Kohaku Uta Gassen” and continued their rapid advance, and we will look back on the journey of the new school leader, revealing the secret story behind the birth of their hit song and its origins.

The four formed the group in 2015 when they were still in junior high and high school. They made their major debut two years later, but things didn’t go smoothly at first. A video of their major debut live performance was shown, showing the girls performing to the fullest without cutting corners, even though there were only three people in the audience… They also revealed an episode from their early days, when they would hand out pocket tissues while doing group exercises in Shibuya and Harajuku to announce their live shows, but looking back on that time, they said, “It wasn’t hard at all. It was fun because there were only four of us.”

In 2023, Atarashii Gakkou no Leaders became known to the world with the huge hit “Otona Blue,” but in fact, the song was released in 2020, and it took three years for it to become a hit. Furthermore, the surprising fact was revealed that the song was inspired by a certain big-name singer…

Comments were received from kyogen performer Nomura Mansai, who claims to be their biggest fan, and singer Ado, who says she is their longest-time fan, who praised them highly, saying, “I was blown away by their unique dance performance, which they performed with all their heart and soul,” and “It was like an electric shock.”

In addition, member RIN’s father will appear remotely. Although he has a strong personality, he will reveal that he never doubted the girls’ potential from the beginning of the group’s formation and will reveal his feelings for his daughters.

At the end, the beliefs of the new school’s leaders and the reason why they have never felt any hardship up until now are revealed. There, we can see the bond between the four members who help each other grow.
