• She began her Takarazuka career as an otokoyaku, under the name Ura Matsuho, and switched to playing female roles in 1979. At that time she changed her name to Kou Akemi, the "Kou" taken from the motto of the mission school she attended as a junior high and high school student, and the "Akemi" from her real name.
