LDH has officially launched its brand-new J-Pop girl group CIRRA, formed through the high-profile “Girls Battle Audition (ガルバト)” led by former E-girls second-generation leader Harumi Sato. 

After months of training, challenges, eliminations, and emotional highs, the final moment arrived — and in a twist that genuinely surprised fans, all 11 finalists were announced as debut members.

Well… almost. One member, COIRO, chose a different dream right after passing and will not be debuting. 

That leaves CIRRA as a fresh ten-member group ready to step into a new era of LDH’s girl-group scene.

The group name CIRRA (シーラ) merges “CIRCLE” and “ERA”, symbolising a connected circle strong enough to create a new era — a nod to unity, strength, and the belief that they shine brightest together. 

It’s a bold, clean concept that fits perfectly with LDH’s ambition to revive the girl-group spirit once carried by E-girls.

Harumi Sato shared her hopes openly:

“We wanted the name to express how their bond lifts them up. We’ll work hard to meet everyone more often and keep the momentum going.”


The Members React: “This Is Just the Start”

Minutes after the announcement, the newly confirmed CIRRA members spoke about their feelings — and if one thing’s clear, the group is built on shared effort and genuine support.

TOA said she was “really happy” to debut with the team she trained with for so long, adding that the real journey begins now.

NIKORI echoed the sentiment, promising to keep growing and deliver smiles to fans.

HINATA revealed she didn’t expect all members to debut and nearly got emotional remembering every stage they performed together.

MYU.Y said she never imagined a full-member debut but was thrilled that their best performance came exactly on finals day.

YURARA and YUNA both reflected on how much the team supported each other through doubts and long nights — and how surreal it feels to finally debut as ten.

KOHARU, MOMO, MYU.S, and MANON all expressed excitement, gratitude, and determination to grow into artists who can appeal beyond Japan.

Every comment circled back to the same point: they’re grateful they made it together.


Victory Meals, Fashion Picks, and First-Day Highlights

The girls kept things light when talking about their “shoubu-meshi” (pre-final meal) and “celebration meal” plans. 

From pork-broth udon and chicken nanban to sushi and classic family dinners, the answers were a charming mix of comfort food and home-style favourites.

Their fashion touches were equally character-filled — layered skirts, bold silver trousers, straight hair, waves, arm warmers, and even fluffy hems made appearances. 

These little details offered the first real glimpse of CIRRA’s individual flair within the group's cohesive aesthetic.


What CIRRA Wants To Become

When asked what kind of group they hope to build, the members’ answers leaned heavily on unity, ambition, and the desire to inspire, much like E-girls did for them.

  • TOA and NIKORI want CIRRA to remain a supportive team that carries each other through every challenge.

  • HINATA talked about fulfilling the audition theme — “reviving the girl-group legacy” — and becoming the ones future trainees look up to.

  • YUNA expressed a strong wish to push LDH’s girl-scene forward, carving out a distinct CIRRA identity.

  • MYU.S and MANON said the group name and logo already feel like “them”, and they want to grow into artists who match that stylish, confident image.

Behind the scenes, the members also shared that although COIRO is taking a different path, the fact that all 11 finalists passed was their heartfelt wish from the start — a moment of closure after the long months of training, evaluations, and shared struggles.


CIRRA Already on the Move — First Performance & Digital Release

CIRRA isn’t wasting any time.

On 3 December, the group will appear live on NTV’s morning show DayDay. for their first televised performance. 

And on 16 December, they’ll release their pre-debut digital single “one-way runway”, the programme’s theme song.
