I-1club Members Profile and Facts
I-1club (アイワンクラブ) was a 7-member girl group from the Wake Up, Girls! Project. They debuted on March 26, 2014 with the single “Little Challenger” and have presumably disbanded as they haven’t released any music since 2018. The voice actresses would sometimes perform at Wake Up, Girls! events.
I-1club is inspired by the group AKB48. In the anime, the group has 200 members who are divided into I-1, I-2 and I-3. I-1 also has 2 sub-units “Team S” and “Team M“, just like AKB48’s different teams (Team K, Team 8 etc). Their group name is also a reference to the song Heavy Rotation which has the English line “I want you”, which sounds similar to “I-1 chew”.

Author Note: In the anime, this group has 3 former members. I won’t write about them here as I have made profiles for their groups. For Mayu Shimada, see Wake Up, Girls!. For Shiho Iwasaki, see NEXT STORM. For Serika Kurokawa, she isn’t in any other units and I can’t find much information on her as she only appeared in one episode and wasn’t in any songs, so I won’t include her.
