AOP (A応P), commonly known as Anime Oen Project (where "Oen" refers to cheering up someone in their native language), is a Japanese idol group consisting of 7 members (as of August 2, 2020), who love anime, debuting in 2012. The group recommends anime and talks about its appeal through TV, radio, magazines, events, and the Internet. They also frequently sing and dance to anime songs.

AOP has a unique theme to their group, which is that every member is assigned a color upon becoming a part of the roster, rather than a stage name.

On December 14th, 2020 the group announced that they will disband on March 31st, 2021.
