2021 is the year when OCHA NORMA was formed; Takagi Sayuki, Kasahara Momona, Kanazawa Tomoko, and Sato Masaki departed from their respective groups and Hello! Project; and new members joined ANGERME, Juice=Juice, and Tsubaki Factory.
Following 2020, it is also the year in which concerts, events, and releases across Hello! Project and UP-FRONT GROUP continued to be affected in some way due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
