Introduction
NGT48 has had 81 original members over their 5 generations (Plus Draft members but not including transferred and Kennin members). As of December 2024, NGT48 currently has 13 members and 23 Kenkyuusei.
Like in AKB48, regular auditions to recruit new members are held, and the future successful candidates, the Kenkyuusei Members (Research Students), take part of a in-training team of members that work as sub and under for the official members in various activities (mostly the Theater Performances). And then, when any of the official members graduate, a girl is promoted to fill the space.
Besides the regular auditions, NGT48 also participates in the AKB48 Group Draft Kaigi to recruit new members. Currently, all generations have at least one member in the group.
