The girl group Idoling!!! announced its three newest members on Monday. Originally a 9-person unit, the group doubled in size last April, but a string of departures resulted in the loss of six members. With this third generation, the group's roster grows to 15.

The three additions are #19 Yurika Tachibana (16), #20 Ai Okawa (15), and #21 Kaede Hashimoto (12). They already participated in the recording of the group's next single, "baby blue," set for release on April 29. Just before that, they will make their stage debut on April 26, at the first of Idoling's newly established series of monthly concerts.
