Revision as of 19:53, 18 March 2022

AKB48, Nogizaka46, SNH48, and their respective sister groups all share established rules regarding members' behavior and conduct. The most famous of these rules is the Love Ban (恋愛禁止 Ren'ai Kinshi), also referred to as the "Dating Ban" or the "Golden Rule". This is a traditional rule among idols to not have romantic relationships during their time as idols. Many other idols, both in and outside of Japan, follow similar rules.

Other group rules include prohibiting smoking, underaged drinking, drug use, contacting fans privately, or public actions that reflect negatively on the group.

Other rules

These rules are not enforced across all groups.

  • Prohibition of members dyeing their hair without the company permission.
    • In AKB48 this rule was enforced in 2016, where it affected Kizaki Yuria, Kojima Mako, and Oshima Ryoka. However, throughout AKB48's history many members have dyed hair, and the enforcement of this ban has been inconsistent.
    • In SKE48 and NMB48, members of both groups have reported that there is a ban on dyeing hair without company permission. Additionally, SKE48 Kenkyuusei have reported that for the first six months of their career they are required to style their hair in the style they chose for their debut photo (hair down, ponytail, pigtails, etc).
    • In SNH48 it was confirmed that a ban on hair dye was included in the 2nd generation Members' contract.
    • On 2019, according to Qiao YuZhen, CKG48 members are not allowed to dye their hair and were not allowed to bring beauty accessories during stage performances.
  • In Nogizaka46 members are not allowed to wear nail art and gel nails during certain occasions, such as while in the group uniform.
  • In SNH48 Group, the members are not allowed to stream through third party applications other than Pocket48.

List of Members who were punished for violating rules

Some members have been fired or sanctioned due to breaking group rules. Note that some of the cases are only suppositions.

  • Dismissed: When the management requires the member to leave the group.
  • Terminated: When management terminates the contract. Similar to dimiss.
  • Suspended: The management decides to pause the member's activities for a certain time.
  • Resigned: The member resigns from the group on her own without a graduation ceremony.
  • Demoted: The member is downgraded from her status from official promoted member to kenkyuusei/trainee.
