    They are a unit based on a chain of maid cafes. They all have REALLY cute anime names and are REALLY good. They preformed at the TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL. If you go to their webiste you can look around and they have pictures of all the girls with their names and all of their releases.

    I love them to death! Though I haven't been able to find more than two of their songs. That youtube link you gave and then it's c/w. However they are so cute and fun to watch!

    I heard that Tsunku is going to produce them? ngh

    I'm pretty sure they used to work at the cafe then they became the like spokespeople for it but I'm not completley sure.

    Edit: Turns out the girls in the group work at the cafe. There are about 8 different locations of the Afilia maid cafe. Each location makes up a part of the "Afilia Kingdom" and each has it's own theme and they all revolve around magic and anime. The girls in Afilia Saga East are the most popular girls in the 3 different locations in Tokyo, none of them are girls from the cafes outside of Tokyo.

    I also heard that Tsunku is writing their new single which will be released in December but I never heard about him producing them though, I hope it's true so they can become more mainstream

    If anyone is wondering Knee High Egoist sold a total of 2,518 copies in its first week and charted at #39 on Oricon. Im not sure about anything past that

    Hello Project wished Tsunku would make them a song like Knee High Egoist! But then again, they don't really have anyone who could have pulled it off.

    Yeah, one can hear Tsunku in their latest single clearly. If to change all the girls by Morning Musume, there would be no difference. Tsunku is so tsunkish)
    I was going to visit their performance at my cho-me on 16th, but the price is 3500 O_0 and there would be no Aria or Kohime T_T

    I wonder how much tickets for other similar (not as popular as AKB) idol groups (Idoling!!!, Passpo, etc.) might be. Heck, I paid 6000 for a Melon Kinenbi concert hall ticket so in my limited perception, 3500 for ASE might not be too bad depending on what the venue/show is like.

    Thats alot thogh!

    But I guess lower profile groups like that can charge higher because their intence wota will probably buy it no matter what, so they might as well just up the price

    Voted!

    I love this group veery much!

    I got into Afilia when I heard Knee High Egoist for the first time, that song is really awesome (even I looked the computer screen like " :blink: " when they started that screaming xD) ♥

    I still don't know (coughcough) any of the members (or atleast very well..), but all the girls seem to be really cute & nice. :3

    Looking forward to this group, I'd love to hear more new songs from them. <3
