Yoasobi made their debut in 2019 with the single "Yoru ni Kakeru". Going viral during COVID-19 pandemic in Japan, the song became their first number one song on both the Oricon Combined Singles and Billboard Japan Hot 100 charts. The song stayed on the latter chart for six non-consecutive weeks,[1] and topped the year-end chart without CD release for the first time.[2] It became the first-ever diamond certification for the RIAJ.[3] In January 2021, the duo released their first EP The Book, which peaked at number two on both the Oricon Albums Chart and Billboard Japan Hot Albums. Besides "Yoru ni Kakeru", Its more two singles, "Halzion" and "Gunjō", also reached top ten on the charts. Yoasobi's second EP The Book 2, released in December, became the duo's first number-one album on the Billboard Japan Hot Albums. Its single "Kaibutsu" became the most-downloaded and streamed song in Japan in 2021, according to RIAJ.[4]

It was followed by the third EP The Book 3 on October 4, 2023, which includes top-five "Shukufuku", "Idol", and "Yūsha", which all affiliated with anime series. "Idol" was an immediate commercial success in Japan and worldwide, debuted atop the Billboard Japan Hot 100 for 22 total weeks (21 were consecutive), becoming the longest-running number-one song in the chart history,[5][6] and broke the record for the fastest song to be certified diamond for streaming by the RIAJ within 295 days since its release.[7] Globally, the song peaked at number seven on the Billboard Global 200 and number one on the Global Excl. US, the highest peak by Japanese artist of both.[8] The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) reported that "Idol" was ranked as the 19th best-selling song in 2023 globally, earning 1.01 billion subscription streams equivalents.[9]

Besides the regular releases, Yoasobi began exploring English-language songs by translating from the original Japanese in 2021 with "Into the Night" from "Yoru ni Kakeru",[10] and subsequently produced three EPs, E-Side (2021), E-Side 2 (2022), and E-Side 3 (2024). Outside their regular work, the duo also collaborated with four Naoki Prize-winning novelists—Rio Shimamoto, Mizuki Tsujimura, Miyuki Miyabe, and Eto Mori—to perform four songs based on their short stories, resulting the book Hajimete no (2022), and its companion EP (2023).
