Last Idol

Last Idol was a Japanese idol competition and reality television show that aired from 2017 to 2022. The premise of the show centered around a core group of seven temporary members who were challenged each week by new contestants hoping to replace them and become part of the final idol group.

Concept: The show's unique format involved head-to-head performances where challengers would aim to unseat one of the seven existing members through a judged vote. The contestant with the higher vote would secure a spot in the final group, while the losing member would be eliminated. This created a high-stakes, unpredictable environment.

Formation and Evolution: The initial seven members selected during the early stages of the competition were subjected to constant challenges and member rotations. Over time, the group's lineup evolved as challengers successfully replaced existing members. Through this process, the final lineup for Last Idol was determined.

Spin-offs and Sub-units: Last Idol also spawned several spin-off groups and sub-units, showcasing the talents of contestants who participated in the show but did not necessarily make the final main group. These sub-units provided additional opportunities for the contestants to gain experience and exposure.

End of Activities: Last Idol officially concluded its activities as a group in May 2022 after holding their final concert.
