DEF.DIVA

DEF.DIVA is a Hello! Project group consisting of Goto Maki, Abe Natsumi, Ishikawa Rika, and Matsuura Aya.

Information

Its formation was announced in September 2005, and their first single, which was released on October 19 2005, reached Number 1 in the Oricon weekly rankings. They were originally expected to be a short-term group and have only one release; this was based on the pattern followed by previous groups comprised of soloists, as well as the helloproject.com announcement which said that it was a "Special unit for 2005". However, in March 2006 their second single was released, suggesting that this group may be around for a while longer. The fact that the new song, Let's Go Rakuten Eagles, is the new official cheer song for the Rakuten Eagles baseball team, as well as the fact that the members are currently busy with other H!P units (Matsuura as half of GAM, Ishikawa as leader of Biyuuden) or solo careers (Abe and Goto) means that the group has not yet established a release pattern which is typical of more long-lived groups in Hello! Project.

DEF.DIVA stands for definitive diva.
