There are many theories behind the meaning of the "V" in V6. It is said that it stands for Victory, but members have mentioned on TV programmes that it also means Volleyball (As their debut single was used in the World Cup Volleyball Tournament in 1995), Versus (20th Century versus Coming Century), Vegetable (as Sakamoto's parents own a green grocers), Vicycle (obviously means Bicycle - Nagano's parents own a Cycling store) and Veteran (as Inohara was told). It also could stand for Volume, which derives from their album that they made.
V6 celebrated their 10th year anniversary in 2005. They commemorated the event by holding about 30 concerts in sold-out arenas all over Japan, holding 3 major "Thank You Events", releasing a hit movie "Hold Up Down" and releasing a new album "Musicmind". They also had a rare "Handshake Session" with hundreds of thousands of fans in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka.
V6 announced on March 12, 2021, that they will disband on November 1, 2021, their 26th anniversary since debut.

The lyrics of V6's song "It's My Life" convey a message of living life on one's own terms and embracing the ups and downs that come with it. The song encourages listeners to not worry about what others think or the challenges they may face because, ultimately, it is their life and they have the power to make it what they want.
The lines "It's my life, don't worry, go ahead!" and "It's my life, it's my life, it's my life, it's my life" highlight the importance of taking ownership of one's decisions and not letting doubts or worries hold them back. The lyrics suggest that worrying does not lead to any significant changes, so it is better to approach life with a positive attitude and maintain a smile, knowing that one will always be there for themselves.
The song also acknowledges the everyday struggles and mundane routines that people experience, but it suggests that even those ordinary moments should not be viewed negatively. The lyrics state, "There's nothing wrong with ordinary days, right?" This line emphasizes the idea of finding joy and satisfaction in even the simplest aspects of life.
