Character Bio[edit | edit source]
"Haruka was a member of the nationally famous idol group ASRUN. Her incredible charisma made her the most popular member of that group, but unfortunately, it was disbanded. She goes to Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy, same as Minori."
Background[edit | edit source]
Haruka used to be part of the nationally-acclaimed idol group ASRUN. She had the highest popularity ranking among all the members of the group. After the group broke up, Haruka left the entertainment industry and returned to high school. She quit because she believed she had no more right to be an idol due to accidentally hurting one of her groupmates when trying to encourage them. Due to the guilt, she could no longer stand or be near a stage without her legs shaking tremendously. However, she met Minori on the school rooftop, who was a big fan of hers and was aiming to become an idol just like Haruka. After a series of events, Minori, Airi, and Shizuku decided to put on a show for Haruka that restored her hope and will to be an idol, and Haruka decided to form MORE MORE JUMP! together with the other three.
