1 | DIVA (formerly named [=DiVA=]) is a former J-pop group under Flave Entertainment record label Avex Trax. All four main members were members of the popular idol group Music/AKB48, and DIVA was AKB's first ever "Dance and Vocal Unit", as it was the only AKB sub-unit to have official backup dancers. |

5 | Due to a scandal hitting Yuka, causing her to quit AKB and DIVA, as well as Sae's concurrency with Chinese sister-group, SNH48, and Sayaka's eventual graduation, the group's activities stopped temporarily. However, the remaining three released a digital single which could only be purchased online in 2013. |

7 | On 2014, the group announced they would release a new single and their first album, along with changing their name from "[=DiVA=]" to "DIVA", and announced they would disband. At the end of 2014, the group held a final concert to make their final bows and disband. |

13 | * AscendedExtra: The six backup dancers got to and sing their own song for DIVA's album. It was called "Mousou Cinderella" |
14 | * AudienceParticipationSong: This happened with "DIVA!" |
15 | -->ex: *the first line of the first verse* |
16 | -->'''Yuka:''' Hey, are you getting pumped? |
17 | -->'''Crowd:''' We're pumped! |
18 | * {{Bifauxnen}}: Sayaka and Sae are both known for being boyish. |
19 | * DarkerAndEdgier: Well, not exactly dark. But compared to Music/AKB48's bubblegum pop style music, they are definitely have a more mature feel and more intense dance moves. DISCOVERY, however, is very upbeat. |
20 | * DoItYourselfThemeTune: Their single "Lost The Way" was used as the theme song for the movie, Ultraman Saga |
21 | * EvenTheGirlsWantHer: DIVA is well known to have MANY female fans. |
22 | ** This was mentioned during an MC at their last concert. |
23 | -->'''Yuka''': Girls! |
24 | --> *Girls in the crowd scream* |
25 | * GenkiGirl: Sae and Ayaka can both count as this. |
26 | * HotterAndSexier: Most songs are considered this. The only song that completely inverts from this is Umeda Ayaka's original song "Daisuki+Daikirai=Daisuki!", which was meant to play off [=AKB48=]'s idol-esque style. |
27 | * ImageSong: Miyazawa Sae's original song, "DIVA!" |
