History
Danceroid started in 2009 with Ikura, Kozue Aikawa and Minka Lee. On December 29 of that year, they released their self-titled debut DVD. In 2010, after Minka left the group, Coco, Maam and Yuzuki won auditions to become new members. After Coco left the group in 2011, Danceroid continued to perform as a quartet.
In 2012, Aikawa starred as the clumsy café maid Kozu Kozu in the Super Sentai parody series Unofficial Sentai Akibaranger. Ikura and the other members have also appeared in some episodes of the series.
On June 3, 2012, Aikawa announced that she would leave Danceroid at the end of August, due to her physical condition making it hard to participate in Danceroid activities.
With Aikawa's graduation, Ikura is the only remaining founding member still active in Danceroid. After Aikawa's graduation, 3rd generation auditions were held, which the current three members participated in. Fans voted for several days, Ikura, Maam, and Yuzuki were able to keep their places as members and on November 17, 2012, Motomiya Marie, Yakko, Manako, and Satsuki won auditions to become 3rd generation members. They left Heartfull Entertainment and joined T-INFINITY ENTERTAINMENT and released "DANCEROID LIVE DVD~Girls Be Ambitious!~".
On April 27, 2013, they released their first single "Dancing Day, Dancing Night" internationally on the iTunes Store.
On July 26, 2014, they decided to disband.
On October 24, 2014, Ikura, Yuzuki, Maam, Yakko and Manako started a new idol group called Q'ulle.[14]
In 2018, Yuzuki joined forces with the melodic death metal band
