Biography

Haruka Ayase, born as Aya Tademaru on March 24, 1985 in Hiroshima Prefecture, is a popular Japanese actress, model, & singer. Her immediate family consists of her father, mother, and one brother. As a youth, Haruka was active in sports, playing basketball in middle school and competing in the Chugoku region Ekiden tournament (long-distance relay race) during junior high school. Then, during her freshman year in high school, Haruka started her career in the entertainment world by successfully auditioning for the 25th Horipro Talent Scout Caravan. At first her parents objected to Haruka pursuing a career in entertainment, but relented once they noticed her determination. Upon her arrival in Tokyo, Haruka worked out frequently and trimmed her weight by 6 kilograms.

Haruka started her career first as a gravure idol, releasing a photobook and DVD. She then branched off into acting landing small roles in televsion dramas, with the 2003 Fuji TV drama "The Way I Live" (Boku no Ikiru Michi) making a positive impression on the public. Her career then went into overdrive with her popular performance as Hirose Aki in the 2004 TBS televsion drama "Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World." Haruka beat out 723 contestants for the role of Hirose Aki in "Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World."

More recently, Haruka has become just as popular on the big screen performing as the leading actress in such films as "Cyborg Girl" "Happy Flight" "Ichi" and "Oppai Volleyball." Her diversity as an actress should also be noted as Haruka performed as a cyborg in "Cyborg Girl", an airline stewardess in "Happy Flight," blind swordswoman in "Ichi" and a junior high volleyball coach in "Oppai Volleyball".

Haruka has also created a successful career in music, releasing her for first single "Period" in 2006. Her debut single went straight to #8 on the weekly Oricon singles chart. She also released two other singles, "Kosaten Days" (2006) and "Hikoki Gumo" (2007), which received similar levels of success.

sgt_doom Aug 02 2021 3:18 pm Great action actress ----- loved in Moribito and Caution: Hazardous Wife, etc.!!!

Teenha May 16 2021 3:59 am Just finished watching Blackjack ni Yoroshiku and she appears in more than just two episodes.

ang May 14 2021 10:09 pm She is definitely hot and doable but Caution Hazardous Wife is full of misandry

babytotoro Mar 31 2021 2:23 am I’m so excited to watch Caution, Hazardous Wife: the movie. I can’t believe it’s been 3 years since then ;-; It was such a long wait... I hope they give them a happy ending because Nami deserves the chance at a normal life. And can I also say how amazing Tengoku to Jigoku is ? She acted so well in it that it gave me chills. I hope she bags many award with it! If you haven’t watched it yet, you should! The last episode even got 20+% viewership which is such a good record.

Umi Jun 25 2020 2:26 am Versatile and prrtty actress love you haruka

Aya May 08 2020 6:07 am Ayase Haruka is my all-time favorite japanese actress. Wish to see her more in action-packed film and series! She never disappoints. she slays every role!

George Nov 26 2019 2:57 am The Lady Haruka Ayase, is a most Beutifull and talented Actress i enjoyed her acting in Our Little Sister. Wish there was a follow up Keep up the good work,Ms Ayase regards George From Western Australia

Xoxo Oct 09 2019 10:11 pm Hotaru no Hikari and Cyborg Girl shot her to stardom, but I think Yae no Sakura was what established her as a professional and top tv actress. She really earned my respect as an actress. Loved her also in Never Let Me Go. I had really huge doubts about Moribito live action adaption but she did not disappoint. I can't really see anyone else as Balsa now.

Sidana Aug 20 2018 5:56 am I love her acting, I have seen every single work of hers.

dean Aug 03 2018 10:57 pm Is she beyond sexy or what? Every film she is in she dominates with her beauty. I love her slender physique and of course those eyes. She is so hot in Hotaru and of course oppai Volleyball, the world's ultimate tease movie. Between her and Nozomi Sasaki the world is made beautiful

My name is kiki Aug 03 2018 6:06 am Natural beauty, talented actress, no gossip, gd behavior, love everything about her❤️❤️ Beauty inside and out?

Daki Mar 26 2018 1:34 am Yes she is a wonderful actress,one of my top 3 fav female actress of all time... ;)

Mii Jan 30 2018 3:41 am She is such a wonderful actress. Very beautiful. I've watched lot of her dramas and movies, I was never disappointed by her. Not once.

babytotoro Jan 28 2018 7:51 am Have finished watching the entire Hotaru no Hikari since the last time I posted here. (and I’m actually in the midst of rewatching it hahah) Congrats to Ayase-san for winning the Best Actress Award for Okusama Toriatsukai Chuui. Go watch it if you haven’t!! It has an open ending so I’m hoping they’ll release the news of a season 2 or sequel soon ?? I’m still not done with Sekai no Chuusin though (can’t find a complete ep 5 sigh)

@Tejas Sawant: No problem! Let me know if you enjoyed :-)

Tejas Sawant Jan 18 2018 4:01 pm @babytotoro Thank you recommending her 2 dramas, going to watch it asap

babytotoro Oct 04 2017 7:29 am Can't wait to watch her latest drama!! I'm going through her entire filmography and am watching Sekai no Chuusin de Ai wo Sakebu now. If you are looking for some amazing romance dramas, I would recommend Kyou wa Kaisha Yasumimasu (Im Taking the Day Off/ rom-com) and Tatta Hitotsu no Koi (Love of my life/ melo-rom). I have only watched a little of Hotaru no Hikari and it's good.

Snow Drops Jul 08 2017 8:03 am she is the one fo the best ever.....her acting has so much variety that it surprised people to no end. I love her so so much ><
