AKB48 AKB48 (pronounced "A.K.B. Forty-eight") is a Japanese idol girl group named after the Akihabara ("Akiba" for short) area in Tokyo, where the group's theater is located. The group has expanded since then to include over 130 members as of 2015 , aged from their early teens to their mid-20s. AKB48's producer, Yasushi Akimoto, wanted to form a girl group with its own theater (unlike pop groups performing occasional concerts and seen on television) and performing daily so fans could always see them live. This "idols you can meet" concept includes teams which can rotate performances and perform simultaneously at several events and "handshake" events, where fans can meet group members. Akimoto has expanded the AKB48 concept to several sister groups in China, Japan and Indonesia, with upcoming groups announced for the Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand.
