Japanese adult film star Hana Kuraki has died at the age of 25. Her death has been reported as a suspected suicide in Tokyo. A friend reportedly found Kuraki at an apartment in Kabukicho on Saturday, September 12. Kabukicho is one of Tokyo’s best-known entertainment and nightlife districts.
According to reports, the apartment belonged to Sakito, a local bar owner. The friend contacted Sakito after making the discovery. He then went to the apartment and spoke with Tokyo police. Sakito later addressed the tragedy on social media. He also denied reports that he personally found Kuraki.
Sakito Calls for an End to Rumours
Sakito said Kuraki had previously spoken to him about relationship problems. However, he urged people not to spread unverified claims about her death.
“I hope that no further harm comes to the deceased or those around her through misinformation or speculation,” he wrote.
He also expressed concern about violence in relationships.
“I also hope for a world free of people who use violence to control others or drive them to such desperate straits,” Sakito added.
His comments have since drawn attention online as fans react to the tragic news.
Kuraki’s Career Was Still Growing
Kuraki entered Japan’s adult entertainment industry in 2024. She quickly gained attention and had plans to attend an adult industry expo in Taiwan later this year. However, her career recently faced an unexpected setback.
In June, Kuraki announced that she would take a break from work. She said injuries to her face and jaw from a traffic accident forced her to pause her activities.
“I do want to keep up with filming if I can,” she wrote while explaining her temporary hiatus.
Fans Urged to Avoid Speculation
Kuraki’s sudden death has left many people shocked. Her recent career plans and public updates had suggested she intended to continue working. For now, details surrounding her death remain limited.
Sakito’s appeal has also highlighted the dangers of rushing to conclusions after a tragedy. As more people react online, fans are being urged to respect Kuraki’s privacy. They should also avoid sharing claims that have not been confirmed by authorities.
