Shiritsu Ebisu Chuugaku
Shiritsu Ebisu ChuugakuShiritsu Ebisu Chuugaku (私立恵比寿中学), or Ebichuu for short, are a Japanese Girl Idol group. Their alternate name is King Of kGakugeeeekai (according to their website). The band was officially nicknamed “King of School Play”, and its concept was advertised as being a group with very rough singing and dancing skills. Or, more accurately, the band’s slogan is “Unarticulated dance and shaky vocals". Ebichu was formed as a quintet on August 4, 2009.
They made their indies debut in 2010 with the single "Asa no Chime ga Narimashita" under the label STARDUST DIGITAL. Two years later, they made their major debut under DefSTAR Records with the single "Karikeiyaku no Cinderella". Three months later they released their second single Go! Go! Here We Go! Rock Lee / Otona wa Wakatte Kurenai (Go! Go! Here We Go! ロック・リー/大人はわかってくれない) on DefSTAR Records. The Single is used for the ending theme for the anime " NARUTO SD: Rock Lee no Seishun Full-Power Ninden "
At present, there are nine members. The only two original members who still remain in the group are Rika Mayama and Mizuki. Although in April 2012 they both entered high school, it was decided that they will remain in the group. They are now joking that they are middle school students forever.
