ELSEE (エルシー) was a five-member Japanese dance-and-vocal girl group made up of AKARI, KARIN, NANAMI, PONO, and HINA. They debuted on September 27, 2024, with the digital single “POW POW.” On September 6, 2025, ELSEE announced a major-label step up to Sony Music Labels, with the digital single “Wondrous” released on October 9, 2025. The name “ELSEE” reflected a concept built around everyday city emotions—neither deeply unhappy nor especially happy—capturing the perspective of “ELLE & SHE,” the kinds of people you might pass anywhere. Their tagline, “I’m you, You’re me. for ELLE & SHE.” summed up that sense of shared, relatable feelings.
