Japanese duo Yoasobi has released nine extended plays (four Japanese and four English), 33 singles (14 of which were additionally released in English version), four promotional singles, three video albums, and 39 music videos (31 were additionally accompanied by the English version). As of October 2026, according to the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ), the duo has sold 3.5 million certified units across physical and digital formats and earned 5.9 billion certified streams. In July 2026, Billboard Japan reported that the duo has exceeded 10 billion streams in Japan, the fourth artist to do so, after Mrs. Green Apple, Official Hige Dandism, and Back Number.
Yoasobi's debut single, "Yoru ni Kakeru" (2019), gained massive popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. It peaked at number one on both the Oricon Combined Singles Chart and the Billboard Japan Hot 100. For the latter chart, the song stayed at the top for three consecutive weeks and six total weeks, and became the first non-CD single to top the year-end chart. It also became the first diamond and double-diamond track by the RIAJ for surpassing 500 million and one billion streams, respectively. The song was followed by multi-platinum singles: "Ano Yume o Nazotte", "Halzion", "Tabun", "Gunjō", and "Haruka".
The duo's first two EPs, The Book and The Book 2 (2021), reached number two on the Oricon Albums Chart, and the latter topped the Billboard Japan Hot Albums. Their single "Kaibutsu" was Japan's best-selling digital song in 2021. The third EP The Book 3 (2023) includes top-five "Shukufuku", "Idol", and "Yūsha". "Idol" was an immediate commercial success, topping the Japan Hot 100 for 22 weeks (21 were consecutive), the longest-running in the chart history, and the best-performing song of 2023 in Japan. Globally, the song was the first Japanese song to top the Billboard Global Excl. US, and the 19th best-selling song globally in 2023, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). Their fourth EP, The Book For,, was released in June 2026 to conclude The Book series.
In addition to their regular releases, Yoasobi began exploring English-language songs by translating the original Japanese songs. It resulted in EPs, E-Side (2021), E-Side 2 (2022), E-Side 3 (2024), and E-Side 4 (2026). Outside their regular work, the duo also collaborated with four Naoki Prize-winning professional novelists—Rio Shimamoto, Mizuki Tsujimura, Miyuki Miyabe, and Eto Mori—to perform four songs based on their short stories, resulting the book Hajimete no (2022), and its companion EP (2023).
