[PROFILE] PrizmaX
I've been wanting to do this long ago together with the profiles of DISH//, Bullet Train, and Customize, but I was lazy enough. It would be nice if I can wrap this up before school resumes because I admit that I can't memorize the names of the other three aside from the two main vocalists. lol. I will be presenting to you the profiles of all the members of the group PrizmaX! To start off, let's get to know more about the history of the group.
PrizmaX is a pop dance and vocal group consisting of 5 members namely Tim, Win, Daiki, Yuki, and Tsubasa; they are under the same label, EBiDAN, as the other groups I mentioned above. The group was first formed in 2002 as a 4-member group under the stage name Wonder ☆ Wown under the modeling office and entertainmen firm, Sugar&Spice. They have regular live appearances in Hello! Project by Stardust Promotion. The group was later renamed as PrizmaX in 2003. It had a sub-unit PrizmaX Jr. with Yuuki Byrnes, Kenta Asada, Daiki Shimizu and Tsubasa Shimada as members. In 2007, it became a 10-nin group. They have street live performance at Yoyogi Park.
In April 2008, they participated in NHK's CD Minna no Uta, "Crystal's feat. PrizmaX" version was released in November. On the same year, there had been withdrawal of members mostly because they focused on their academics and the group went into hiatus.
In 2010, they joined Stardust Promotion's male talent group, EBiDAN. In 2011, Fukumoto Yuki left the group to pursue his acting career. In 2012, they are a trio group. And finally in 2013, the group became 5nin after the readmission of Fukumoto Yuki and Shimada Tsubasa for their CD debut.
