Trivia[]
- The group's aim is to "break idol rules".
- The group name consists of the word "cute" (可憐) and "ivory" (アイボリー), in which the latter can be a symbol for elephants.
- They aim to be an idol group that is cute, friendly, kind, strong and noble like elephants are.
- The group name can also mean "ivory-colored", which is a color that represents a teenage mind between an adult and a child.
- The group's color is White.
- On April Fool's 2023, the group changed their name to Kageki na Ivory (過激なアイボリー) with a new logo, artist photos and even made changes to their website.
- They did the same joke in 2024, renaming themselves as Kageki na Ivory (過激那愛彫).[5]
