Aa!
あぁ！ (Aa!) is a Hello! Project group that was formed in 2003 with 6th generation Morning Musume member Tanaka Reina and two members of Hello! Project Kids, Suzuki Airi and Natsuyaki Miyabi. It was the second group after ZYX to feature members taken from Hello! Project Kids.
The group released their debut single titled FIRST KISS in October 2003. Following this single however Aa! released no further material and it was expected that the group had been put on indefinite hiatus or dissolved completely. Later, two members, Tanaka and Suzuki, returned along with Murakami Megumi to sing a B-side to the ALL FOR ONE & ONE FOR ALL! single, Suki ni Naccha Ikenai Hito. And in 2007, two members of Aa! (Suzuki Airi and Natsuyaki Miyabi) once again took part in a new group (Buono!) along with Tsugunaga Momoko.
Although, not officially credited as Aa!, Miyabi, Airi & Reina performed First Kiss together in 2006 at the Hello! Project Tour Winter 2006 ~Wonderful Hearts~ concert.
Somewhat unexpectedly it was announced in June 2009 that Aa! would reform to sing a cover of OFF COURSE's song YES-YES-YES for the Hello! Project summer compilation album, Chanpuru 1 ~Happy Marriage Song Cover Shuu~ which was released in July 2009. The group line-up was however altered with Tanaka Reina leaving the group and Hello! Pro Egg member Saho Akari joining.
