We are about to celebrate the group's 5th anniversary on July 30, 2022. With this in mind, the members and staff have been having discussions about the future of each member. As a result, we have come to the conclusion that dissolving the unit and allowing each member to pursue her own path will lead to further growth and development.
For now, the group will continue their activities as scheduled. Their next performance is in Sendai on July 31, 2022 at their live tour titled Run Girls, Run！5th Anniversary Live Tour Get Set, 5!
The voice actor unit Run Girls, Run! was formed from those who passed the audition jointly held by Avex and 81 Produce in 2017 (avex x 81 Produce Wake Up, Girls! 3rd Anime Song Vocal Audition).
The group was made official on July 30, 2017. They released songs collaborating with anime works such as Wake Up, Girls! New Chapter and Kiratto Pri Chan.
They will celebrate their 5th anniversary this July 30, 2022.
