Tempura Kidz (stylized as TEMPURA KIDZ) was a Japanese pop dance and vocals group formed by four girls and one boy managed by Asobi System and signed with the Sony Music Japan label. They started their career as back-up dancers for Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, and have toured with her since late 2011.[1] Their songs are produced by Ram Rider.[2] The group debuted on November 13, 2012 with the music video for their first song "Cider Cider", which was produced by Ram Rider. In January 2013, they released their first digital single "Strobe", used as ending theme song for the anime Chō Soku Henkei Gyrozetter. Two months later, on March 6, Tempura Kidz made their physical debut with the release of their first single "One Step" produced by Nishi-ken. On March 26, 2018, member Nanaho graduated from Tempura Kidz.[3] Tempura Kidz continued to perform as a four-person group until the graduation of Yu-ka, P→★ and Ao in March 2021.[4]
The group is supervised by Maiko, a dancer and choreographer for Kyary Pamyu Pamyu.[5]
