History

Strawberry Prince was founded by Nanamori, the group's leader, in June 2016. Nanamori had gained popularity on Nico Nico Douga by uploading song covers, and he contacted other popular users to form a group. The members use stage names and illustrated avatars to represent themselves, never revealing their real names and never showing their real faces except at live performances and meet-and-greets. Nanamori thought that it was too dangerous to post his face on the internet when he first started posting videos, and he decided to keep the gimmick after forming the group. In addition to music, the members also stream video games through their YouTube channel, which has over 1.1 million subscribers as of November 2020.[1][2]

Strawberry Prince's music has been featured in other media. The songs "Gingira ginga" and "Dai uchū Rendezvous" were used as ending themes for the video game Yo-kai Watch Jam: Yo-kai Academy Y – Waiwai Gakuen Seikatsu and as opening themes for the anime Yo-kai Watch Jam – Yo-kai Academy Y: Close Encounters of the N Kind.[3] The song "Yōkai Watch" was used as the opening theme for the video game Yo-kai Watch 4++.[4] And the song "Mukō e" was the theme song for the third anniversary of the battle royale mobile game Knives Out.[5]
