Representatives of the project expressed that the group's goals will be to perform at NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen and hold a concert at Tokyo Dome.
On March 22nd, it was announced that the first round of screening had passed and that the project had received a total of 1,747 applications. Those who passed the initial screening will participate in group interviews for the second round, and will go through a final examination by Akimoto himself if they succeed in their interviews. In early April, Yoshimotozaka46 will appear in its first regular program on TV Tokyo and TV Osaka Yoshimotozaka46 ga Ureru Made no Zenkiroku, hosted by Higashino Koji with regular appearances by Nogizaka46's Matsumura Sayuri and quizmaster Furukawa Yohei.
