Unofficial Hinatazaka46 Units

Unofficial Hinatazaka46 Units refer to informally named Hinatazaka46 units that are not credited in their respective songs. Some of these units were created when the group was still known by its former name, Hiragana Keyakizaka46 (until February 2019).

French Bread

French Bread (フランスパン) is an unofficial Hinatazaka46 unit created for the song Sanrinsha ni Noritai from Hiragana Keyakizaka46's 1st Album Hashiridasu Shunkan.

"French" was used to represent Kakizaki Memi, who aspired to be "like a French doll". "Bread" was taken from Sasaki Mirei's nickname, Miipan (pan meaning "bread" in Japanese).
