Asa Akira (born Asa Takigami on January 2, 1986) is the most famous and the same time the richest Asian-American porn star in the industry who has an estimated net worth of $1.5 million and who made 500 adult films as a performer and some more as a director. Akira was born in Manhattan, New York, the only child of Japanese parents, granddaughter of a Japanese diplomat and later moved to Tokio (Japan). She lived in Japan between the ages of 6 and 13. Asa is her real first name, which means "morning" in Japanese, and the last name in her stage name was taken from the anime film Akira. Asa is a proud owner of a very tiny body frame (32C-24-32) with operated titties. Prior to launching her porn career Asa worked as a dominatrix and as a stripper at the Hustler Club in NY. Asa received several award nominations and awards, including AVN Female Performer of the Year Award in 2013 (making her the second Asian performer to ever win the award), also she became a Fleshlight Girl in 2011. Currently, Akira lives in Los Angeles, California and she´s married to porn actor Toni Ribas. She´s very self-conscious about herself and her profession: "I'm part of the new era of porn. We're feminists, very sex-positive people. We're not victims of rape, not drug addicts, we don't have any daddy issues."
