The members of Orix Buffaloes' official dance and vocal unit, "BsGravity," have been decided. For the 2026 season, the group will consist of 12 members in total: 9 "BsGirls" and 3 "BsGuys." For the first time, the leader has been selected from among the male members. Entering their third year as a mixed-gender group, RYUTO, who has been a central member since the group's inception, will take on this important role.

He began his activities mainly through social media on January 26th. RYUTO declared, "I think I'm probably the first male leader among the 12 teams. On the contrary, I want to keep trying new things. I want to be at the forefront of the times and be a role model. I want to go beyond Osaka and aim for the world! I want to do my best."

It has also been decided that a new song, "Evolution," will be released in the spring. "After just one listen, I think, 'That's refreshing.' It gives off a refreshing impression, but at the same time, it has a quiet passion. I want to show that there is a burning passion inside. I want to support The Buffaloes with a fresh, abrupt feeling," he said, promising to support them.
