Sumire Haruno
She is the first otokoyaku of her class (77th) to reach the top star status (followed by classmate and former troupe-mate Hikaru Asami by 3 months).Also, another uniqueness of her career is that her status of being the second man (ninbante) was a short-lived one, because Hibiki Takumi became severely ill with myelitis during the Grand Theater performance of "In the Amber-Hued Rain / Cocktail".[3] Haruno took over the leading role for the Tokyo performance, and at that point she unofficially became the top star of the troupe.She had three top star partners - top musumeyakus Rei Ootori, Miyo Fuzuki and Ayane Sakurano, which is quite rare in an otokoyaku's case (Rio Asumi had four partners, although performed once with Hana Ranno and Yuuki Hana).Haruno and Sena are often called by fans "Osa and Asa" (nicknames from their real names).
