BIOGRAPHY
Aren Sakurai (Japanese: 櫻井亜蓮; born 27 June 2006 in Osaka Prefecture) is a Japanese actor, model and online creator. TMDB also records him under the earlier name ケイト・アレックス (Kate Alex), which appears on his older credits.
His screen work includes Inu-kei Danshi (2025), where he played Toifu Aren, and Koifure: Koibito Miman ga Choudo ii (2025) as Gaku Orimoto.
In Hold on, Harutora-kun (2026) he plays Shibusawa Yuma, a classmate of Sui’s whose reflex is to lighten the room with a joke, whether or not the room wants one.
BLGLFlix editorial view
Three credits inside two years, all of them between the ages of eighteen and twenty. That is quick, and the order of his job titles explains why. He is recorded as a model and online creator as well as an actor, and in the Japanese market that sequence usually runs one way: an audience arrives first, and the casting follows it. Producers filling out a school ensemble know exactly what a performer with a following already brings to a broadcast slot.
His record carries two names. TMDB keeps ケイト・アレックス, Kate Alex, on the older credits and 櫻井亜蓮 on the newer ones. Both are on this page. A name change part way through a young career leaves a split trail, and someone searching the earlier one should still find the right person.
No agency is recorded for him. That field is empty because no source we accept names one, which is worth stating rather than assuming he is unrepresented while working on a national broadcaster.
