Biography

[edit]

Haruka Yoshiki, a native of Sendai, was born on 1 July 1998.[2] She was originally a member of B Sharp before she was tapped to join the local idol group [ja] Party Rockets GT in 2012.[3] She was also the group's leader, under the stage name Haruka (stylized in all-caps).[4] She had originally planned to be a voice actress, but decided to focus on Party Rockets GT instead of continuing her education beyond high school or her voice acting lessons.[5]

In June 2022, she was cast as Mina (part of the group It's Your Cider) in the film adaptation of the Idol Bu Show franchise.[13] In September 2022, she was cast as Ellie in Kizuna no Allele.[14] In December 2022, she was cast in the rōdoku-geki drama Echo at Kiwa Tennoz, Tokyo.[15]
