Re:Maishin

Re:Maishin is a duo unit consisting of Rosé Shin and 奥山KONORI.

Members

 * Rosé Shin
 * 奥山KONORI

Group Name
"Maishin" is a portmanteau of the Cebuano word "Mailhi" (Unknown), and the Japanese word "神秘的” (shinpiteki; Mystical).

The "Re:" in the name refers to the fact that the story of "Re:Maishin" takes place after the origin story, Maishin.

History
Re:Maishin came about quickly after Rosé and Konori initially met in late 2018.

Konori had auditioned for Rosé's Uta no Prince-sama genderbend cover group, Yume no Hime-sama, as Tokiya. The two quickly became friends and started a unit (Re:Maishin) together. Rosé sings in Natsuki's place (and later Ai) in the group. Konori later took on the role of Ranmaru, as well as co-leader, in addition to her role as Tokiya.

Rosé later came up with the idea to create a "bigger version of Re:Maishin" to fulfill her wish to cover songs with close friends, without a strict schedule. This group later came to be known as Maishin.
