Biography

edit

Makaze was born in 1986 in the Kumamoto Prefecture, Kikuchi District. She has a younger brother. She showed interest in dancing from a young age due to her mother running dance classes.[3] In primary school she learned piano, penmanship and abacus (practiced primarily by children in Japan and China). In middle school, being invited by a close friend, she joins the table tennis club.[16]

In her third year of middle school, she attended a Takarazuka Moon Troupe's performance.[16] In the theater, she found an application form for the Takarazuka Music School, and with the support of her mother she decides to take the entrance exam right after graduating middle school.[16] Due to no prior preparation, she fails at the second stage of the entrance exam. She attends another show, this time from the Flower Troupe and is once more reminded of her desire to enter, saying to herself "I really do want to enter here after all".[16] She learns ballet and vocals during her high school period. In her second year, she produced an original dance for Sports Day and was selected as the school's representative for the Kumamoto Prefecture Recital where she won first place for her performance.[16] On her third try at the Takarazuka Music School exam, she passes.[16]

In September 2024, she married with actor Katsuya.[17]
