R3BIRTH

R3BIRTH is a unit under Nijigaku. The unit consists of three members, namely Shioriko Mifune, Mia Taylor, and Lanzhu Zhong.

Group Formation
The group was formed in phases:
 * In July 2021, a form was opened to submit names for the unit.
 * In July 2021, the choices for unit names were revealed.
 * In September 2021, the chosen unit name was revealed.

Etymology
Due to the image presented by the group, many of the name submissions had meanings that emphasize them being a trio, or starting off as antagonist-like figures to Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, before befriending them and joining their club.

R3BIRTH comes from all three girls rediscovering why they love music and what it means to be an idol, each becoming even stronger than who they were previously.

Other highlighted submissions were KiRa-KiLler, GLITT3R and JACK!!.
