Saying goodbye to Miura Haruma is still so surreal, especially with how quickly this terrible tragedy has finished its news cycle. Two days after Haruma’s passing on July 18th, he was laid to rest by his family in a private funeral on July 20th. His agency Amuse released a statement that a future public memorial for his fans will be held when it’s safe to congregate post COVID-19. Normally Japan is not a country that has a lot of discussion on mental health and suicide but Haruma’s passing has led to increased focus on these topics. It hasn’t all been positive, apparently the Japanese media coverage has delved into revealing the specific details of his passing, showing pictures of his home, etc., all things that are against WHO guidelines on reporting on suicide. I hope anyone reading on Haruma’s passing had emotional outlets to discuss the sadness and also know they can reach out to their own country/city suicide resources and hotlines.

It really hit me so hard, I grow up watching his movies and doramas. I'm so sad that just looking at a Japanese commercial with a male model reminding me of him, I know it's sound exaggerated but it's true though.
I’m still shocked with his passing. He was one of the Japanese actors I loved. When I think of him, I always think of him smiling because of his beautiful smile.
I hope he is now resting in peace and happier where he is.
Something is fishy how his agency and this whole Japanese entertainment industry wanted to bury his passing quickly asap and pretended nothing happened. Maybe it is Japanese culture or so what. Wasn't he a superstar? His huge fandom is still mourning.
I agree with you, how could they do this when the whole global fandom still in shock.
Moreover, when Amuse first released his passing news, they said they made disappointed to all fans and apologized. It sounds so fake to me. How could they apologize over someone's suicide unless they're not at fault?
There are still many rumors around his passing.
I agree. His friends have all said that he was not someone who was suicidal. He had several projects going, and he has many friends and fans. I wish that I could be there to investigate things. I’m devastated and can not wrap my head around this at all.
I don't like how Amuse is handling these things too. They had been with him for many years. They should have treated him well when he was alive. Now, I'm losing trust to the whole J-entertainment Industry. Even his co-stars and friends wanted to let it go. It's so suspicious. What's exactly happened? Probably We'll never know.
True! His whole fandom still cannot accept his death yet. His fans power is not joke. I'm thinking that he is like a hallyu star in whole Asia.
Right! Something bothered me that why they still won't release his suicide note(or not at all). Maybe they are protecting him and his family coz it may caused more hate by j-netizens. I wish Japan is more open.
Why isn't his suicide note published yet? It has been 5 days. In South Korea, they released Jonghyun and Sulli's notes right away.
If it's not, the whole situation could be more suspicious and his death would be mystery.

It looks like Haruma was just a money making machine for Amuse for so many years. So sad to think how much he had been through. R.I.P Haruma
Haruma Miura and Shun Oguri are only Japenese names I know. Haruma was one of those people who made J-movies/dramas to be well-known. I've seen a lot of foreign people were into Japanese Culture because of Haruma. I somehow see now Amuse actually mistreating and wasting him. Rest in Peace Haruma! Japan failed you
He is so good in the drama called the hours of my life he play the role of a guy who has a als disease i was amazed the way he played that role. Gone too soon. You'll always be missed
I know life must go on. Still I'm in disbelief.
Sayonara Haruma ❤️
Now, I don't have any reason to watch japenese movies and dramas anymore. Coz he is unreplaceable for me. He is the one who initiated japenese movies to me. I always love him. Rest in Peace ?
Haruma! I hope you are happy now. You finally escape from all those hardships and struggles. Japan failed you R.I.P Haruma
For people who may not know,Haruma was a big supporter of act against AIDS. What a beautiful soul he was! May he rest in peace and power.
30 is too young to die. It is surprising to know that he had been in the acting industry for 23 years. He must have been suffered all rain and fire. Hope he rest peacefully.
