History
In 2010, girls from 10-20 years old were welcome to audition for a new idol group based in Ehime where they would revitalize the prefecture. 14 successful applicants were picked in August of that same year, and they were divided into two groups of 7. One would make Himekyun Fruit Can, while the other would be Hinakyun Fruit Can, a trainee group. Two of the trainees from Hinakyun, Sakurako and Yuria, ended up being promoted to Himekyun, and about two months or less after the group’s formation, Erika graduated from the group in September of 2010.
In March of 2011, their debut single Renai Enerugii Hozon no Housoku hit stores nationwide and managed to acquire the #1 spot on the Oricon Indies Charts. During the months of May and June, Hinakyun trainees Rin, Manami and Sahara graduated from the group respectively. The remaining trainee Ayu and new trainee Mayu joined together to form Nanocune, Himakyun’s new trainee sister group. Himekyun have many regular TV program appearances and commercials, participated in a number of local events, and have gotten love from both men and women of all ages.
