STU48 is the sixth Japanese sister group of AKB48 based in the Setouchi Region, founded in 2017. The first 48 Group not to be based in one city (not even one prefecture; there are 7 prefectures in the Setouchi Region, although their management office and ship are registered in Hiroshima). Also the first 48 group to have had their theater on a ship, in operation from spring 2019 to May 2021, so that they could move it between cities in the region for their performances.The group is co-owned by the Setouchi DMO (Destination Marketing Organization) and has many TV shows and activities to promote Setouchi tourism.As of June 2020, STU48 has 5 sub-units and 4 junior sub-units for the trainees, each focusing on a different type of activity: Charming Trip and little Charming Trip (Girls' Journey) Katte ni! Shikoku Kanko Taishi and Katte ni! Shikoku Kanko Guide (Shikoku Island Tourism) STUDIO and mini STUDIO (Performance) MiKER and pin MiKER (MC and Sports) Aoi Himawari (Rock Band)There were two sub-units which have been merged into MiKER: Setomaiku (MC) Seto 7 (Sports)Like the other 48 groups, STU48 has plenty of other media offerings besides music, including: STU48 no Setobingo!

Hotter and Sexier: In their second stage play, produced by then captain and known Chivalrous Pervert Okada Nana, the girls perform rather suggestive tracks, such as "Juujun na Slave" which is about lesbian dom-sub relationship. | |

Fan Girl: Everybody likes Okada Nana, but Takino Yumiko absolutely adores her. Many clips exist of her gushing about Naachan and showing off her merch collection on live streams and interviews. She proclaims herself Naachan's "Setouchi wife", since there's already AKB's Murayama Yuiri who's considered Naachan's "wife" (and hates being called that). Many members are fans of the Hiroshima Toyo Carp baseball team and are often seen with the club's merch. Before joining the group, Yumirin used to sell beer at their home stadium, and as a member, she has thrown out a ceremonial first pitch to start one of their games. Meanwhile, Kai Kokoa played a supporting character in a TV drama about the club's fandom. | |

Protest Song | |
| STU48 (Music) / int_16d8476f | comment |
Protest Song: "Hana wa Dare no Mono?" ("To Whom Does The Flower Belong?") was a response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and imagines a world without borders, where people won't have to fight over "flowers in the wasteland". It was released along with a short movie about three friends, portrayed by the centers, who fight because Yumiko decides to join the photography club instead of the choir club like Chiho and Mai, and make up when Yumiko and her club offer to document the choir club's performance, after the contest they were going to participate in was cancelled due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Yumiko also reveals that she's suffering from partial deafness and had planned to join the club if she recovered (this is foreshadowed when Mai calls her from behind and to the right in the beginning, but she turns to the left, since her right ear is deaf). | |

Never Trust a Trailer: The announcement video for the group in 2016 mentioned that the group would have a shipboard theater, with an artist's rendering of a luxurious passenger liner. The actual STU48-go is a much humbler converted ferry. | |

Experienced Protagonist | |
| STU48 (Music) / int_20016429 | comment |
Experienced Protagonist: Some of the girls are already known as performers with their own fanbase before joining the group. Sakaki Miyu has been known as the YouTube dancer CUCA since 2008, i.e. since she was five years old. She had ~21k subscribers, but removed all her dance videos after joining STU (some were re-uploaded by fans). In December 2018, she opened a new channel called CUCA Channel, where she visits cafes and specialty shops in Kagawa and other places in Setouchi, drinks a lot of coffee, makes bread, and occasionally performs dance covers (now in STU's training studio instead of her own living room). Mori Kaho has gone by her nickname Kahotaru as an independent Showroom streamer before joining the group. Several members are alumni of the famous Actor's School Hiroshima, which holds regular student performances open to the public and released as DVDs (the audience is also allowed to bring video recording equipment, presumably for talent scouting purposes). The school even runs its own idol groups, including Imamura Mitsuki and Otani Marina's former group SPL∞ASH and Ishida Chiho's former group MAX♡GIRLS. In their 20th Anniversary Medley, ASH acknowledged this by covering "Kurayami". | |

Arcadia: Their music videos showcase the idyllic countryside of Setouchi with its rustic shops and beaches. Even their official profile photos are taken outdoors with the sea as background, unlike those of their sister groups which are usually taken in a studio. | |

Flashback Echo: In the "Omoidaseru Koi wo Shiyou" MV, the 1st generation and 3rd Draft members are adults having a reunion at their old high school, and there are flashbacks to their student days where they're portrayed by the 2nd generation members. Of course, centers Takino Yumiko and Rissen Momoka portrayed the main character (even though they're among the tallest and shortest in the group, respectively). | |

Intergenerational Friendship: Not very surprising for a group with members ranging from preteens to young adults.

Mineyoshi Arisa and Mori Kaho are good friends and formed a duo unit for the 2018 Janken. | |

Punny Name | |
| STU48 (Music) / int_6d7026fa | comment |
Punny Name: In a TV ad for the Nagasaki-Chan Men ramen chain, Yabushita Fu blows her ramen with a loud "fuu" noise. Imamura Mitsuki's nickname is Michu, so she greets people in English with "Nice to Michu!" Iwata Hina's given name is a homophone for "chick", so her nickname is Hinapiyo, where "piyo" is onomatopoeia for bird chirping. A name like Kai Kokoa is impossible not to pun. For example, her morning Showroom broadcast is titled Morning Cocoa. Shinano Soraha's fans are called the Sora-ha (Sora Faction, which can be translated to Sky Faction). Ishida Chiho's catchphrase includes a wordplay with Setouchi Chihō (Setouchi Region, with a long o). The subunit MiKER! logo is a car, even though it has little to do with cars or driving, because their name sounds like "my car", especially in Japanese pronunciation. | |

Rule of Seven | |

Rule of Seven: There are seven prefectures in the Setouchi region (Hyogo, Okayama, Hiroshima, Yamaguchi, Tokushima, Kagawa, and Ehime).note Oita and Fukuoka also border the Seto Inland Sea, but are usually considered part of Kyushu region. Presumably because of that, the sports subunit is called Seto 7 and was formed with seven members. The group itself debuted in 2017. Also, their first captain was Okada Nana, and Seven Is Nana (she was born on November 7, 1997). | |

Cover Version: 48 Group songs are a given, including the Hiroshima dialect version of "Kimi no Koto ga Suki Dakara", "Kimi no Koto ga Suki Jakee". The second original stage setlist includes "Teokure Caution" by =LOVE, a group produced by former member Sashihara Rino. They covered Hinatazaka46's "Kyun" during their appearance on Music Blood, following a series of happenings when a sizable number of Hinatazaka fans became interested in STU48 after being randomly redirected to the Showroom live streams of STU48 members. They comment that the cheerful song is quite different from their own, more bittersweet works, and particularly note the many opportunities for audience interactions like winking. | |

One-Steve Limit: Averted as usual for the 48 groups. For surnames, there are two Ishidas (Chiho and Minami) in the 1st generation and two Kawamatas (Anna and Yuuna) in the 2nd generation, who are not related. For given names, there have been two Harukas (Mishima and Sano, both graduated) from the 1st generation and two Saras (Shimizu and Yoshida) and two Sayakas (Harada and Takao) in the 2nd gen. There's also 2nd gen's Minami Yurina whose surname is the same as the earlier mentioned Ishida Minami. One of the 2nd generation candidates is named Okada Nana, but written differently than the former captain. Unfortunately, she didn't make the cut. Morokuzu Noa previously went by Mitsuki Noa, and presumably took a stage name to avoid confusion with the captain. By the way, Morokuzu (諸葛) is read as "Zhuge" in Chinese, as in Zhuge Liang. | |

Technician Versus Performer: The group has no shortage of vocal technicians, as evident from the many members who became finalists in the annual AKB48 Group No. 1 Singer Contests, and it also has the subunit STUDIO which focuses on performance techniques. However, most of them aren't included in the main single lineups (senbatsu), which are based on popularity (performer), and they're usually given a B-side instead. Technicians who have been part of the senbatsu (excluding all-member ones) include Imamura Mitsuki, Okada Nana, Mineyoshi Arisa, and Ishida Chiho. | |

Product Placement: The group is co-owned by the Setouchi Destination Marketing Organization and has many TV shows and activities to promote Setouchi tourism in both domestic and overseas markets. They have two subunits directly related to tourism. This is also why their MVs are full of Setouchi Scenery Porn, you'd be forgiven for mistaking it for a National Geographic Channel show. In several Setobingo episodes, the girls are asked to introduce and blind taste products from their hometowns, with the hosts jokingly warning that they can't go home if they cannot identify their hometowns' signature dishes. | |
