amazing how they convinced half of Japan's female population to join the group!

Probably some Aki-P groups. The 48-groups have teams of about 15-16 in each but afaik the 46-groups don't have teams and they have 20+ members. His band The Coinlockers had 41 members, I don't think they were in units?

i heard of Kakakabububukikiki!!! because their producer is Naoki Kubo (SILENT SIREN's producer) and SILENT SIREN's Suu wrote their debut single
they are also active in the Kabuki theater scene, so i guess that's how they justify being such a large group
