Tacoyaki Rainbow, or TacoNiji for short, are a 5-member idol group under Stardust's Kansai division, known as "Stardust's Ultimate Weapon" within the company. Their indies debut single was released in 2013, "Over the Takoyaki Rainbow," followed by, "Naniwa no Haniwa." Both of these singles included former member and leader Narasaki Towa, who graduated from the group to focus on her studies on June 8, 2014. As 5 members, they released the single, "Zesshou! Naniwa de umareta shoujotachi," and performed at Tokyo Nippon Seinenkan for the first time as a solo act for their "Naniwanderland" show, the DVD and BD of which were released on April 1, 2015. All of these singles were released only in the Kansai area, but the following singles, "Genki Uri Shoujo~Naniwa Meika Gojussen~" and "Kuribocchi ONEDAY!!" received a nation-wide release. 

 

It was revealed at Ore no Fujii 2016 (the Stardust 3BJr group concert) that they would be making their major debut under avex trax. Their first major-release single was "Nanairo Dance," released April 4, 2016. They had a Zepp hall tour in April and May, 2016, and they are releasing their second single under avex trax, "Dot JP Japan," on August 24, 2016. Their first album is set to release the winter following this single.

The members have their own TV show on Kansai TV that airs once a month called Mezase Koshien! Tsukatako Rainbow Road, as well as being supporting cast on the show Kagaku de Muchamitasu!, also a Kansai-local show. They have a mini-show, TakoTsubo!, that airs on BS Fuji and is accessible on the Stardust Channel subscription network (new episodes can be accessed for free for the week following the broadcast).

^ ..Oh Thanks..
I was wondering actually why they are so overjoyed when they announce that their song would be release nation wide.. in the video I saw.. :D

So the coming single is their debut single?

Usually nation-wide debut and major debut are synonymous, yes, but until we get confirmation of what label is releasing the single, I can't say for sure. At the very least it will make acquiring their singles significantly easier.

Mai is pretty cute. It kind of bothers me that they don't have a red. One of them should switch.

No red doesn't bother me as much as no blue. I just see Mardi Gras colors (which I don't like) whenever I see Momoclo. Blue breaks that up in my mind, for whatever reason.

It's a tie between Saki and Mai for me. Mai is cuter to me, but Saki has a bit more personality.

 

Also, Tsukatako Rainbow Road isn't really uploaded regularly, but this YouTube Channel has clips of unused footage (that may or may not be available depending on certain factors) from different episodes that you can watch if you want to see more of them.

Their twitter account posted some pictures of the girls with Hyadain, which means he's probably involved in their next single. Good.

All the Stardust girls got way better music once they got bigger releases(Although that EbiChu song that sampled the CanCan was magic from start to finish) so I have high hopes.

It has to be on purpose. I refuse to believe it's just unfortunate romanising.

Also worth mentioning are two Towa-era songs on the "Stardust 3Bjunior Last Daizen Shu" 2-CD set, "Diving" and "Chocolate Burning":

They also appeared in the "Nanairo No Stardust" video and CD single:

 

And they performed three songs on the "3Bjunior LIVE FINAL Ore no Fujii 2014" DVD/BluRay:

 

I miss Towa-chan, she was my favorite...

To be fair, Sakuchan doesn't seem like your type anyway.

 

A very short live preview of the new single:

 

 

 

Those costumes... like I don't even know what I can say since they always get weird stuff like this, it doesn't even surprise me now.

Why do they insist putting these cute girls in such awful costumes.

 

The song sounds fun at least.
