Pink Babies

was a 14-member Japanese female idol group that was active from 2014 to 2017. Created by songwriter/producer Shunichi Tokura as part of his "Pan-Pacific Project", the group was a tribute to the 1970s J-pop duo Pink Lady, performing only songs written by Tokura.

History
Pink Babies opened their YouTube channel on May 28, 2014. They released their debut digital single "Wanted" on July 16 and hosted their debut concert at Mt. Rainier Hall Shibuya Pleasure Pleasure on August 24. On April 16, 2015, the group was appointed as by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.

Pink Babies also performed internationally in 2014 and 2015, notably at the Japan Expo in France and at the Anime Festival Asia in Indonesia.

On February 25, 2016, Pink Babies made a guest appearance at the Tokyo Marathon Expo at Tokyo Big Sight.

On August 31, 2016, the group released their first CD single "Nagisa no Sindbad", which peaked at No. 5 on Oricon's Indies Chart. By this time, the lineup was reduced to 10 members. On September 26, seven members of the group formed the spin-off project "Pink Babies EX" and released their cover of the Linda Yamamoto song "Neraiuchi".

Pink Babies' second and final CD single "UFO", released on February 15, 2017, hit No. 1 on Oricon's Indies Chart. Two months later, with eight members remaining, the group announced their disbandment, with their final show held at Mt. Rainier Hall Shibuya Pleasure Pleasure on May 26.

On September 3, 2018, Rio Ohmori, Rio Shiseki, Sara Suzuki, Chinatsu Suzuki, Kotono Satō, Mayu Suganuma, and Aina Yoshida reunited for one night only for the NHK BS Premium special dedicated to songwriter/producer Shunichi Tokura. The special aired on September 30.
