Rui Sakuragi, born Miki Ebisawa on March 8, 1970, in Japan, emerged as one of the most iconic figures in the Japanese adult video industry during the early 1990s. Initially starting as a gravure model under names like Masako Ichinose, she transitioned to AV in 1989 with her debut for the VIP label and quickly adopted the stage name Rui Sakuragi. Standing at 164 centimeters tall, she earned titles such as the "real AV Queen," the top Japanese AV idol of the mid-1990s, and the biggest star in AV for 1992 due to her prolific output and immense commercial success. Sakuragi appeared in numerous adult films while also crossing over into mainstream cinema, videos, and television appearances.

She retired from the AV industry in 1996 at age 27, choosing to step away before newer talents overshadowed her. Following retirement, she took on various civilian roles including agriculture, supermarket work, and warehouse jobs in the Kansai region, while dealing with health issues like ulcerative colitis. Her enduring legacy highlights her as a trailblazing performer in Japanese erotic entertainment.
