Yamakatsu

 was an idol group based in Yamaguchi. They were originally named Yamaguchi Kassei Gakuen (山口活性学園) and were very often nicknamed Yamakatsu (山活), but changed their name in April 2018.

Previously, members were split into the Idol and Artist departments, which eventually merged. They were also split into Stamen and Submen. Submen was named 30POSSE in June 2013, and, while still considered the under-group of Yamakatsu, performed separately as their own unit.

On December 29, 2022, it was announced that the group would disband after a final live on April 2, 2023.
