▲Due to their songs being featured on the [[Bleach|various]] [[Fullmetal Alchemist|endings of]] [[Star Driver|animes]] [[Star Ocean the Second Story|and videos games]], the band has achieved a somewhat international fanbase and has performed at SXSW, Sakura-Con and [[AM 2]] in the USA, Ani-com in Hong Kong and Japan Expo in France. They have also recently concluded a very successful Asia Tour.
SCANDAL are:
* Haruna Ono (vocals, guitar)
* Tomomi Ogawa (bass, vocals)
* Mami Sasazaki (guitar, vocals)
* Rina Suzuki (drums, vocals)
Any resemblance to [[K-On!|Hokago Tea Time]] is purely coincidental.

* [[Anime Theme Song]]:
▲* [[All Drummers Are Animals]] - Averted with prejudice. Suzuki Rina is the youngest, girliest and arguably the cutest member of the band. Mileage does not vary. Suzuki has however, named Keith Moon as one of her favourite drummers.
