X21, also known as Next Generation Unit X21 (次世代ユニットX21), was a Japanese idol group formed in 2013 by Oscar Promotion.
Members of the group were the finalists of the 13th Japan Bishojo Contest in August 2012. Yoshimoto Miyu and Ozawa Nanaka were the winners of the beauty contest.
The “X” in the group’s name stands for “unknown”, “future” and “power that can not be predicted”. It indicates that they are the next generation idol unit and that their potential is unpredictable.
Their variety show Go! Oscar! X21 (Go!オスカル!X21) has aired on TV Asahi (テレビ朝日) since April 2013.
