SudannaYuzuYully (Japanese: スダンナユズユリー, also known as SYY or Sudannayuzuyully) is a Japanese dance-pop and hip-hop trio formed and managed by LDH since 2017. They are a sub-unit of supergroup E-girls and signed to the record label Rhythm Zone. The name of the group derives from each member's nickname: Anna Suda (Sudanna, スダンナ), Yuzuna (Yuzu, ユズ) and Yurino (Yully, ユリー). This is the first group in which Yurino and Sudanna take on a different position than only being performers. All members are actively taking part in producing and writing the group's music and lyrics.
The group is known for their various endeavors in fashion. They have been featured in several popular Japanese fashion magazines such as Nylon Japan, smart and mini.
