| Kosaka Nao and Kanemura Miku Lead the Charge in Hinatazaka46’s ‘Onegai Beach!’ Senbatsu Formation |
Hinatazaka46 is shaking things up with the announcement of their much-anticipated Senbatsu lineup for their 15th single, “Onegai Bach!”, set to drop on September 17, 2025. With a fresh lineup and a double-center formation, excitement is building for this latest release!
The standout feature of this single is the double-center position held by Kosaka Nao and Kanemura Miku, both seasoned idols leading the way once again. This marks the second time the duo has taken on this responsibility, having previously shared the spotlight in the 6th single.
This Hinatazaka46 Onegai Bach Senbatsu is made up of 19 members, with a notable shift towards younger generations.

The line-up primarily features members from the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generations, leaving out the 1st-gen members entirely, while the 5th generation hasn't yet made their debut in the Senbatsu.
A minor change from the previous formation is the exit of Tomita Suzuka, who has graduated from the group.
Fans are particularly excited about the first row, where four idols have earned the spotlight: Fujishima Kaho, Kanemura Miku, Kosaka Nao, and Shogenji Yoko.
In the second row, there are seven familiar faces, including Kamimura Hinano, Hirao Honoka, and Kawata Hina. The third row brings in the younger faces, with Takeuchi Kirari, Konishi Nanami, and Yamaguchi Haruyo representing the newer generation.
