History.
After disbanding Bebī Gyangu (ベイビーギャング), Rintarō was active as a comedian in "onē" "mandan" (drag queen comic monologue). The duo was formed when Daiki Kanechika, who had previously been in the group Purizun (ぷりずん。), called him out. Originally they were a duo formed to participate in the M-1 Grand Prix. The two participated in the M-1 Grand Prix 2017 as a temporary duo called SCANDAL and advanced to the third round. In December 2017, they officially formed the owarai duo called EXIT. The origin of the name was explained on EXIT's Twitter as, "I hope we can be the exit to everyone's pain and stress."
In July 2018, EXIT was ranked number one in "Young entertainers who are likely to sell in the current variety" category on TV Tokyo's variety show "Goddotan".
On November 11, 2018, EXIT sold out a solo live performance at Yoshimoto Mugendai Hall. In December 2018, EXIT Charannel was begun and videos were scheduled to be uploaded every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. On November 11, 2018, EXIT sold out a solo live performance at LUMINE the YOSHIMOTO.
The duo was promoted to first class at Yoshimoto Mugendai Hall at Faseka ∞ Change on December 23, 2018.
On February 2, 2019, EXIT held a bus tour with HoriPro com's fellow owarai duo Kitsune. In August 2019 the two held a cruising event.
On December 25, 2019, the duo released their first live DVD "EXIT hatsu rainichi chara manji baibusu buchiage japan tsuā hikari × hikari sore sunawachi oto ninarikeri 〜 osoku nattenjan 〜☆hikaeme ni itte Pa ripi zen'in ni todoku yō ni achāna nedan de here we go☆" which was recorded at Japan Tour on September 27 of the same year.
On December 28, 2019, the duo's first own TV show "EXIDO" was broadcast on TV Asahi.
On December 29, 2019, EXIT held a solo live performance "EXIT wo mitai subete no hito yo.

Kotoshi mo senki ~yusu rainen mo yorota no forever in Pacifico Yokohama〜" at Pacifico Yokohama with an audience of 5,000.
When the duo made a remote guest appearance on Fuji TV's "KinKi Kids no Bunbun Būn" broadcast on August 21, 2020, the tentative title of KinKi Kids's 2nd single "Aisareruyori Aishitai" was "EXIT". From this, an unexpected connection to KinKi Kids was found in the origin of the duo's name.
