At an event on June 13, 2013 in Ikebukuro Sunshine City , the group's major debut was announced. Her first major single called Romance no Tochū was released that same summer. The single was released as Triple A-side and contained both the new song and new recordings of the first two singles.

In addition, producer Tsunku announced the decision that Yuka Miyazaki would be leader and Tomoko Kanazawa would be sub-leader of the group.
On July 5th the Hello! Project announced on its website that Aina Ōtsuka would leave the Project and thus also from Juice = Juice. The reason given was that Ōtsuka's family did not agree to their contract. Juice = Juice will continue as a group of 5 members.

On the day of their first indoor concert tour, the group announced that they would release a first album in July 2015.
In February 2016, a dorama called “ Budokan ” started on FujiTV. The main roles, the members of the band NEXT YOU , are played by the Juice = Juice members. The seventh single “ Next is you! / Karada Dake ga Otona ni Nattan ja nai “is the theme song for the dorama and was published under the name NEXT YOU .
A world tour has been announced for September 2017, during which the group will visit Thailand, Malaysia, Mexico, the USA, France, Great Britain and Germany. The concert in Germany will take place on September 17th in Dortmund. Also in 2017, two new members joined the group: Nanami Yanagawa from Country Girls and Ruru Danbara from Hello Pro Kenshūsei .

Until their debut, Juice = Juice had neither leaders nor subleaders. When the group was founded, the members were assigned types of fruit that represented their member colors (peach for Miyazaki's pink, apple for Kanazawa's red, etc.). However, this concept was discarded after the indies phase. The new members received colors with no reference to fruit types.
