Of the nine bands in BanG Dream!, MyGO!!!!! is one of six whose members perform their own music.

## History

MyGO!!!!! was announced in 2022, as a start of the BanG Dream! franchise's new approach of "synchronizing" reality and the fictional universe. While their characters were named, their voice actresses initially remained anonymous. To keep their identities hidden during their first shows, they played with limited stage lighting that covered their faces. MyGO!!!!!'s voice actresses were officially revealed at their fourth live show on April 9, 2023.
The first standalone concert for MyGO!!!!! took place on July 3, 2022 with Morfonica's drummer Mika as a supporting musician, and they opened for the "Special Live Girls Band Party!" concert in November. The band released their debut single "Mayoiuta" on November 9.
After the release of the anime, BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!! in June 2023 that centered mainly around the in-universe band's formation, their popularity exploded. When they released their first album, Meisekiha, in November, it peaked at 5th in the Oricon radio charts. In September 2024, they sold out a live show at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, and in late December their second album, Michinoku, reached 3rd on the Oricon charts.

## In-universe band

In the anime and game, MyGO!!!!! is one of two bands, the other being Ave Mujica, created following the breakup of Tomori, Soyo, and Taki's former band Crychic in their third year of middle school. The band name is a play on the word "迷子" (maigo), meaning "Lost Children" in Japanese, in reflection of their individual lack of direction. Five exclamation marks are suffixed to represent each band member.
The band made its anime debut in the 2023 spin-off series BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!!.

## Musicality

In an interview, MyGO!!!!!'s producers characterized their approach to the band's music as resembling punk rock and melodic hardcore.
The band's song titles are infamously described as "hard to read," purposefully using difficult/multiple-meaning kanji in a style called Ateji. The reason why difficult-to-read song titles were adopted was that when the first original song, "Meiseikoku," was being produced, the initial title proposal included hiragana, but as the band's producers wanted something a little more catchy, they had it re-proofed, and as a result, the song's title came out as something in kanji only, so after discussion within the project, the decision was made to use difficult-to-read song titles. Since then, MyGo!!!!!'s song titles have always been presented in only kanji.

## Discography

As of 27 December 2024, MyGo!!!!! has 13 original songs.
