Biography
Aimi Yoshikawa biography
Aimi Yoshikawa (吉川あいみ) was born in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan in March 1994. Japanese entertainment profiles and Wikimedia records consistently give March 20, 1994 as her birth date, although IMDb currently lists March 15; this profile follows the Japanese-source date while noting the database discrepancy. Yoshikawa first appeared in gravure work in 2012 and made her adult-film debut in January 2013. She also crossed into mainstream acting, appearing in God Tongue: Kiss Pressure Game - The Movie in 2013 and taking the lead role in the 2014 live-action adaptation Watch-out! Luna, the Teacher. On November 8, 2018 she announced that she would retire from adult entertainment at the end of that year, with December 31, 2018 marking the close of her AV career.
Yoshikawa's six-year career combined high-volume adult production with several mainstream screen roles. That crossover is useful context for understanding her public profile: she was not limited to studio catalog work, and her retirement announcement explicitly separated her later life from her former adult-performer identity.
