Haruka seems to have a successful career going since her AKB graduation last December, much more successful than almost any other graduate. She's not getting starring roles but has had big ones in three dramas this year, she's currently starring in the asadora "Hiyokko" which ends it's run next month. Not a lot of things for this post or it at least seemed that way to me but there are over seventy pics, gone though are the days of Haruka doing gravure spreads but she still looks A-OK to me.
One mag that Haruka has appeared in over the years is Myojo, every month she has a mini spread for them. Only problem is that the spreads are always just two pages and no clue why it's that few. Here are her two page sets from January to September but left out April as she had appeared with someone else.
Besides Myojo Haruka doesn't appear in as many mags these days but she's popular enough where she may not have to. Haruka has an Instagram and Twitter accounts which she does update most days but never has enough new pics.
Haruka is the special ambassador for two Summer events. One of them is for the Japanese lottery and their one time '100 Million Yen Jumbo Lottery'. Tickets were on sale from July 18th to August 10th and the drawing will be held next month. 100 million may sound like a lot and it actually is but it's a very small jackpot compared to some American ones, it equals $920,000.
On July 18th which was the first day to buy tickets Haruka was at an event for the lottery and to also promote a new CM she appeared in for the jackpot. What would really sell a lot of tickets is if she was the grand prize, how many of us would empty out our bank accounts to buy tickets!?
The other project Haruka is associated with is 'Blast!- Music of Disney', more info on it after these pics. First two are from a special mag promoting the event(s) and the rest are from a new interview for Real Sound.
Haruka still looks mighty fine these days, she's always been a skinny gal but seems even more so lately. On August 15th she was at the first Tokyo show of the 'Blast' tour, the concert was held at the Orb theater in Shibuya. The ensemble is made up of three parts, two are for the brass and percussion instruments while there are also dancers performing.
Haruka has been promoting the group since June, their first concert was on July 9th and they will be doing a show in all 47 prefectures with the finale happening on October 1st. Her instrument is the alto sax and it's the first time she's played live since 2009 when she joined AKB. She did a few songs from some Disney films during the ensemble's second set. Many pics here from the concert plus a video of it after the concert if you want to hear her play.
