Haruma Miura, ‘Attack on Titan’ star, dies at 30
    2020-07-20  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

HARUMA MIURA, a Japanese actor known for his roles in the “Attack on Titan” films and “Kimi ni Todoke,” has died, according to Kyodo News and other local reports. He was 30.

Kyodo News reported that the actor was found in his Tokyo home Saturday and was later pronounced dead upon arriving at a hospital. Investigative sources and police believe that Miura died by suicide, although the cause of death has not been officially confirmed.

Miura’s management company Amuse Inc. said in a statement to Kyodo News that they are awaiting more details.

“To fans and people concerned, we apologize for the worry and the inconvenience caused, but as to details, we are still confirming and will inform you once again,” Amuse Inc. wrote.

Miura started his acting career as a child, appearing in a number of TV series in Japan including “Agri,” “Fight,” “Samurai High School,” “Bloody Monday” and “You Taught Me All the Precious Things.” He scored his first leading role in 2006 in the film “Catch a Wave.” He went on to play significant parts in movies such as “From Me to You” in 2010, “Tokyo Park” in 2011, two “Attack on Titan” films, and “Little Nights, Little Love” in 2019. He continued to be active in television as well, most recently starring in “Tales of the Unusual” on Fuji TV and “Gift of Fire” on NHK.

Miura was also successful in theater, playing Lola in the Japanese adaptation of “Kinky Boots” in 2016, which won him the Haruko Sugimara Award.

In his early days of pursuing acting at the Tsukuba Actor’s Studio, he formed a dance team, Brash Brats, with two fellow students. Music and dance continued to be a big part of his life and he released his first single, “Fight for Your Heart,” in 2019. In April 2020, he announced on Instagram that he was releasing his second single, “Night Diver,” in the fall. It is now scheduled to be dropped posthumously on Aug. 26.

His latest project, “The Confidence Man JP: The Movie 2,” is set to release in Japan on Thursday.(SD-Agencies)
