V6 is a popular Japanese idol group, formed by the Johnny's Entertainment company. They debuted on 1st November 1995 with CD-Single "MUSIC FOR THE PEOPLE".

Due to the age difference between the 6 members (the difference between oldest member, Masayuki and youngest member, Junichi, is 10 years), the band was separated into "20th Century" and "Coming Century".

There are many theories behind the meaning of the "V" IN V6. It is said that it stands for Victory, but members have mentioned on TV programmes etc that it also means Volleyball (as their debut single was used in the World Cup Volleyball Tournament in 1995), Vegetable (as Masayuki's parents own a green grocers), Vicycle (obviously means Bicycle - Hiroshi's parents own a Cycling store) and Veteran (as Yoshihiko was told).
