On June 2005, Akimoto Yasushi had his first audition for his "Akihabara 48 Project", a project for a group that featured 48 girls who performed in their own theater. By October, he had picked 24 girls to be the first group of members for what came to be known as AKB48, and on December 8, 2005, 20 girls debuted in the Akihabara 48 Theater. At the end of Team A's first stage, Usami Yuki graduated to pursue a career in gravure.

On 2007, it was announced that Team A (who had just finished their fourth stage) and Team K (who had just finished their third would be performing together as Himawari-gumi, a team of mixed Team A and K members who performed two stages together.

On December 8, 2014, during AKB48's ninth anniversary show, founding member Takahashi Minami announced her graduation from the group, which was set for December 8, 2015, the same day as the group's tenth anniversary. The date was then postponed so that her graduation ceremony would be held on March 26-27, 2016, and her last theater performance would be held on April 8, 2016.

On March 26, 2015, it was announced during the AKB48 Spring Concert 〜Jikiso Imada Shugyouchu!〜 concert that the teams would be shuffled in August 2015. On the same day, Kawaei Rina announced her graduation from the group, declaring that since she could not participate in handshake events anymore after the Iwate Incident, she now wants to focus on her acting career. She graduated on August 4, 2015.

On May 10, 2015, during the AKB48 Group Draft Kaigi 2015, Hiwatashi Yui was drafted to Team A, but instead of being promoted to the team, she started as a Kenkyuusei. She was promoted to Team A on February 10, 2016, during the team's 7th stage "M.T. ni Sasagu".
