IDOLiSH7 is currently holding the “16 STAR SIGNS” 2025 Birthday Store to celebrate the idols’ birthdays. This time, we’re bringing you a report from the Nanase Riku / Kujou Ten Birthday Store, which was held from July 1st to July 31st, 2025!

What is the “16 STAR SIGNS” 2025 Birthday Store?

IDOLiSH7 is a multimedia project by Bandai Namco Entertainment, centered around a smartphone game with the key concept of “idols growing together with their companions.” It has expanded through various media, including music, live performances, anime, books, and corporate tie-ups, all aimed at creating captivating idols.
With its charming characters, music, and story, it has gained immense popularity alongside the original game, and as 2025 marks its 10th anniversary, even greater excitement is anticipated.

The “16 STAR SIGNS” 2025 Birthday Store is a special event celebrating the birthdays of the 16 idols appearing in IDOLiSH7.
Each idol’s birth month will feature unique exhibits and exclusive merchandise sales to commemorate the event.

A charming highlight is the ability to hear special messages broadcast directly from the idols at the venue!

Celebrating Nanase Riku-kun & Kujou Ten-kun!

July 9th marks the birthdays of Nanase Riku, the center of IDOLiSH7, and Kujou Ten, the center of TRIGGER. Hearing that a special “Birthday Store” was being held for a limited time to celebrate these two, we promptly made our way there!

The venue was beautifully lit in Riku-kun’s signature red and Ten-kun’s soft pink.

Furthermore, a wide array of merchandise designed to delight fans was available, including birthday bromides, can badges, tote bags, and large towels. It truly felt like a dedicated celebratory space for the two idols.

Visiting the venue truly allowed us to rediscover the undeniable charm of these two idols!

Nanase Riku is a member who serves as the center of IDOLiSH7. He possesses a bright and honest personality, always maintaining a positive outlook.

His passion for singing is unmatched, and on stage, he has the power to captivate the hearts of his audience. His unwavering dedication and his thoughtful nature towards his companions are also part of his appeal. Fans can’t help but want to cheer him on as he continues to grow.

Kujou Ten is an idol who exudes an overwhelming presence as the center of TRIGGER. His unwavering commitment to professionalism, maintaining composure at all times, is truly authentic. He is a diligent worker who relentlessly pursues perfection.

On stage, his breathtaking performances are so captivating that no one can help but be utterly charmed.

They seem similar yet are entirely different, and yet, somehow, they connect with each other. This event, which allows fans to celebrate both Riku-kun and Ten-kun simultaneously, was truly a rewarding experience!

It wasn’t just about celebrating their birthdays; it was a special space that made you want to express gratitude for their very existence.
