Introduction:
Junjou no Afilia, alternatively known as Junjou no Akita, previously known as Afilia Saga East and Afilia Saga, is a Japanese female idol group formed through the Afilia Saga Maid Café-chain.

Biography:
Beginning as a unit back in 2008, the group is considered as a "academy-type vocal unit" consisting of girls selected from establishments that belong to the Afilia Group, which is a nationwide cafe and restaurant network. The group uses a line-up changing system with members who join and leave, while being jointly produced by two people: Chiyomaru Shikura and voice actress and singer Haruko Momoi.

In 2012, on March 28, Afilia Saga East (which it was known as at the time), released their 7th single titled "Mirai no Watashi o Matteiru". The title song was written by Tsunku and composed by Chiyomaru Shikura. At the time, the group consisted of 14 members, this is the largest the group has ever been since its creation in 2008. The single became the group's first entry in the Oricon Weekly Charts, reaching the top 10.

A year later in 2013, during March 24, the group consisted of 11 members. Later in July of the same year, after rebranding from Afilia Saga East to the name Afilia Saga, they were tasked to perform the ending theme to the TV anime Hyperdimenstion Neptunia: The Animation, as well as the opening theme for a different anime release, My Mental Choices are Completely Interfering with my School Romantic Comedy.

On June 3, 2017, they would rebrand once again from Afilia Saga to their current name Junjou no Afilia.
