Fictionalized versions of themselves appeared as the main cast of Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future to promote their activities.

After the end of the Pretty Rhythm series, Prizmmy continued to perform theme songs to the series' successor, PriPara, joined with the trainee group Prism Mates as back-up performers.

Prism Mates

Prism Mates (プリズム☆メイツ, Purizumu Meitsu) was a pre-debut trainee group who accompanied Prizmmy as a supporting act. They appeared with Prizmmy in hosting the "Pretty Rhythm Studio" segments in Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future and Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live. The members also appeared in their music videos as their back-up dancers. Prism Mates also made a cameo in episode 9 of Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live. At the time, the members' ages averaged around 11.2 years old.

From 2013 to 2014, members from Prism Mates released digital singles, which were later included on Prizmmy's second studio album, Music Goes On. Their first song as a group, "Zenshin Zenrei Go My Way!" was released on Prizmmy's mini album, Love Trooper. In 2015, a sub-unit consisting of Mirei Takahashi, Yuka Takayanagi, Momona Aoki, and Airi Hamamura called Prism Idol Kenkyūsei (プリズム☆アイドル研究生) released the single "Idol Kinryoku Lesson Go!" for PriPara. As a collective group, they released music with Prizmmy under the name Prism Box.
