Haruna Kojima (小嶋 陽菜 , Kojima Haruna, born April 19, 1988 in Urawa-ku, Saitama, Saitama Prefecture) is a Japanese actress, singer, and was a member of idol group AKB48 under Team A. She graduated from the group on April 19, 2017.

Kojima started her career as a member of Angel Eyes, an idol group under Stardust Promotion. After Angel Eyes disbanded in 2001, she remained in contract with Stardust, but later switched to Ogi Production.

Kojima participated in the first AKB48 audition in July 2005, which she passed along with 23 other participants, because the application was just taking a self-image by a mobile phone and e-mail it, and assuming that she “could take 10-time prettier one, and just sent”. Although she voluntarily applied for the audition and passed, she was still looking at then-AKB48 project in a suspicious way, and tried to skip the very first dancing lesson because of her then-part-time job, but eventually participated it in response to the persuasion by Tomonobu Togasaki, Manager of AKB48 Theater.

Since 2007, Kojima has been actively exploring a possible acting career, and has made several appearances in a number of dramas and movies. Her first lead role came in the drama Coin Locker Monogatari (コインロッカー物語 , literally Coin Locker Story) , which was filmed and aired in early 2008. Additionally, Kojima made her first appearance on the silver screen in the horror movie Densen Uta (伝染歌 ) , along with several fellow AKB48 members. The group has also made brief appearance at the beginning of the movie in a live performance.

Kojima made her first appearance on Kohaku Uta Gassen, an annual music show where the most successful artists of the year are invited, with AKB48 on December 31, 2007.

She was transferred from Team A to become a member of Team B during reshuffling of teams at the Tokyo Dome Concert held on August 24, 2012.

On September 18, 2013, AKB48 announced Kojima to be the center of the group’s 33rd single, “Heart Electric”.

In 2015, she and Yuki Kashiwagi were the center performers for the AKB48 single “Green Flash”.

In AKB48’s general election for 2016, under the name Nyan Nyan Kamen (にゃんにゃん仮面 , literally Meow Meow Masked) , Kojima finished 16th with 40,071 votes. During the results event on June 18, 2016, she announced that she would be leaving from the group. She said that she had thought about doing it two years ago, but the timing wasn’t right especially given the handshake incident in 2014. She said that she was 28 and wanted to take the next step to become an adult woman. In 2017, she was announced as the center performer for AKB48’s 47th single “Shoot Sign”, released in March 2017. It marked her first center performance since “Green Flash” two years ago, and her third center performance on an AKB48 single overall. After her graduation concert “Kojimatsuri ~ Kojima Haruna Kanshasai ~” (こじまつり～小嶋陽菜感謝祭～ , literally Kojima Festival ~ Kojima Haruna Thanksgiving ~) on February 21–22, 2017, she performed at the AKB48 theatre for the last time, on her birthday, on April 19, 2017.
