"Uchimata, sotomata, Katsumata! (Toes inward, toes outward, Katsumata!)" - with this playful catchphrase, Katsumata Haru made a memorable debut on the group's variety show, Soko Magattara, Sakurazaka? as the eighth and oldest member of Sakurazaka46's 4th generation to be revealed. Her introduction was deemed as one of a kind: though her childhood dream was to be a comedian, she shared that she hopes to become an idol that motivates people to move forward. Standing at 167cm tall (and one of the group's tallest members), Haru is adored for her expressive dimpled smile, bright presence and gentle warmth that reflects her name Haru (spring). Her debut as the center for I want tomorrow to come at the 4th Generation First Showcase has placed her in the spotlight and in the hearts of many Buddies; admired for her striking duality, sincerity and pure passion that symbolizes the fresh energy of the new generation.
