Suzuka Tomita (Japanese: 富田鈴花, Hepburn: Tomita Suzuka; born January 18, 2001) is a Japanese actress and media personality. She starred as Hong Cha-young in the first stage adaptation of Vincenzo (2023) and as June in Gypsy (2026). She was also highly involved with Super Formula Championship promotions and held the titles of Super Formula PR Ambassador and Abema Motorsport Ambassador.

Tomita was a member of the girl group Hinatazaka46 (formerly Hiragana Keyakizaka46) from 2017 to 2025. Aside from appearing in the group's concerts, she held a duo concert in 2021 and solo concert in 2025.

Early life

Tomita hails from Kanagawa Prefecture and has two older brothers. She was named after the Suzuka Circuit race track in Mie Prefecture, as her mother was a Formula One fan.[1]

Tomita plays the guitar, bass guitar, and piano.[2][3] Before transferring high schools following her entry into Hiragana Keyakizaka46, she had been classmates with actress and fashion model Miu Suzuki.[4]

Career

2017–2021: Early career

Tomita successfully passed the auditions for the second generation of Hiragana Keyakizaka46, now Hinatazaka46, on August 15, 2017.[5] She made her musical debut with "No War in the Future", included on their parent group's Keyakizaka46's fifth single, "Kaze ni Fukarete mo" (2017).[6] In her early variety show appearances, she adopted a comedic "party animal" (パリピ, paripi) persona and she has performed rapping on variety shows and several of the group's concerts.[7][8][9][10] In August 2018, she made her stage acting debut in the stage adaptation of the mobile game Magia Record, playing Yui Tsuruno.[11]

Tomita formed the acoustic guitar and vocal duo Hana-chans (花ちゃんズ, Hanachanzu) with fellow second-generation member Konoka Matsuda. The duo recorded the song "Masaka Gūzen..." (まさか 偶然...; lit. 'Such a Coincidence...'), included on Hinatazaka46's third single, "Konna ni Suki ni Natchatte Ii no?" (2019).[12] The duo's concert, produced by MTV Japan, was titled MTV Acoustic Flowers: "Bell & Like" and held as a live-stream event on June 27, 2021.[13] She also portrayed supporting characters in Hinatazaka46 productions: Nanao Hataya in Dasada (2020)[14] and Rubie in Koeharu! (2021).[15]

Tomita has been a recurring contestant on the Fuji Television game show Chidori no Oni Renchan since 2021, where she sang karaoke songs of increasing difficulty, judged solely by machine pitch detection.[9][16] She won the grand prizes of 1 million yen in March 2024 and January 2025, the second time in a duo "tag team" with fellow Hinatazaka46 member Mikuni Takahashi.[17][18]

2022–2025: Acting and motorsport ventures

From April to June 2022, Tomita served as a regular Wednesday co-host on the TBS morning show Love it!.[19] Leveraging the origin of her name, she diversified into motorsport and automotive-related media. In July 2022, she became the main host for the Super Formula Championship racing variety show Go On! Next Circuit de Aimashō (GO ON！ NEXT〜サーキットで会いましょう〜; lit. 'Go On! Let's Meet at the Next Circuit') on BS Fuji,[20] which migrated to Abema under the title Circuit de Aimashō (サーキットで会いましょう; lit. 'Let's Meet at the Circuit') in April 2023.[21] She was appointed Super Formula PR Ambassador in 2023[22][23] and Abema Motorsport Ambassador in 2024.[24] In 2023, she became the first active Japanese idol to sing the Japanese national anthem solo to open the Super Formula round held at the Suzuka Circuit;[25] she reprised the role in 2025.[26][27] Outside motorsport, she appeared in public service announcements for the Shuto Expressway renewal project in late 2022[28] and became a brand ambassador for Panasonic's Caos car battery line in 2024.[29]

On May 6, 2022, the YouTube channel The First Take released a video of Tomita performing "Do Re Mi Sol La Si Do" with first-generation Hinatazaka46 members Shiho Katō, Kumi Sasaki, and Mirei Sasaki.[30]

In August 2023, Tomita secured her first major theatrical role outside Hinatazaka46, starring as the female lead Hong Cha-young in the first ever musical stage adaptation of the 2021 Korean television drama Vincenzo, which toured Kobe, Tokyo, and Osaka.[31] She served as the center (lead performer) for the song titled after herself, "Suzuka", released on the group's 13th single, "Sotsugyō Shashin Dake ga Shitteru" (2025).[32]

On May 3, 2025, Tomita announced her upcoming graduation from Hinatazaka46.[33] She held her "graduation" ceremony during a live-streamed mini-concert on June 27, 2025.[34] In July, MTV Japan produced a solo concert titled Suzuka Tomita (Hinatazaka46) One Last Live on MTV at the Tachikawa Stage Garden, which also featured Konoka Matsuda as guest.[35]

Tomita's first solo photobook, titled Suzuka Circuit (鈴花サーキット), was published by Kobunsha on August 5, 2025. With the theme of "road movie", the book chronicled her drive along the east coast of Queensland, Australia, where her parents had gone for their honeymoon,[36] starting from Gold Coast, through landmarks such as the 75 Mile Beach in K'gari and the historic city of Gympie, and ending at Lake McKenzie. She obtained an International Driving Permit specifically for the shoot and provided her own handwriting for the title print on the cover.[37] The book sold 27 thousand copies in its release week and topped the week's Oricon photobook chart.[38] She officially concluded her activities with Hinatazaka46 on the same day as the book's release.[39]

2026–present: Solo career

Tomita appeared on Chidori no Oni Renchan for the first time as a solo talent in March 2026, where she remarked on her significantly reduced income after leaving Hinatazaka46.[40] The public reaction to the revelation led to her clarification in an April interview that she was "completely fine" and should have been "more careful" with her words.[41]

On April 1, 2026, Tomita announced that she had signed an exclusive contract with the talent agency Trustar to pursue a career as an actress and media personality.[42] Shortly after, she was appointed as the official ambassador for the "TIF de Debut 2026" idol audition campaign, held in conjunction with the Tokyo Idol Festival.[43][44]

In May and June 2026, Tomita starred in a major production of the classic musical Gypsy directed by English director Christopher Luscombe, sharing the stage with veteran actress Shinobu Otake. Tomita portrayed the secondary lead role of June (Dainty June), the daughter of the relentless stage mother Rose. The play would be performed in Tokyo, Kariya in Aichi Prefecture, Fukuoka, and Osaka.[45][46]
