Incidents[]
- On December 2017, member Kaido Elu claimed in a now-deleted tweet that management was firing her for connections and embezzlement of funds, but she had done nothing wrong.[3] jupisea pro did not confirm or deny, but no legal action was taken against Kaido.
- On July 9, 2024, Shiritsu Citron Gakuen D announced that their producer, Yasuda Nobuo (安田宣生), had gone missing.[4] They believe it was due to financial trouble and he had left with the groups's sales, as Yasuda was in charge of the sales revenue and hadn't paid the expenses he was asked to. On the company's Twitter account, it was revealed Yasuda had embezzled 2-3 million yen from the company.[5] This eventually lead to the group's disbandment.
