Ren Ozawa (小澤 廉, Ozawa Ren, born August 12, 1991)[1] is a former Japanese actor, voice actor, and singer. He is a former member of the boy band B2takes!
Career
Ozawa won the Grand Prix prize at the Bacs Award 2013, which jumpstarted his acting career.[1] In November 2018, Ozawa left the boy band B2takes!!, and his graduation ceremony took place during the group's 6th anniversary concert.[2]
Following domestic abuse reports in December 2020, Ozawa was dismissed from his agency. Subsequently, he was removed from upcoming projects, including the stage play adaptations of Le Petit Prince and Night Flight.[3] The final episode of Kyouen NG , which he co-starred in, was originally scheduled to broadcast on December 14, 2020, but was delayed to December 19.[4] In addition, his voice clips were removed from A3! and replaced by Tomoru Akazawa's.[5][6][7]
Personal life
In December 2020, Shukan Bunshun published allegations from his ex-girlfriend stating that Ozawa physically assaulted her throughout their 5-year relationship.[6] The two began dating in 2015, beginning from when his ex-girlfriend was 16 years old, and moved in together in Setagaya, Tokyo in 2019 until she moved out in September 2020. Ozawa's ex-girlfriend alleged that he assaulted her regularly, especially during sexual intercourse, and that he had once forced her into getting an abortion after she became pregnant.[6] On August 31, 2020, a neighbor called the police after hearing her being physically abused, but charges were not filed. On November 28, 2020, his ex-girlfriend attempted suicide before a friend intervened.[8] On December 14, 2020, AIS, Ozawa's agency, terminated his contract, stating that he confirmed the reports.[9] Ozawa issued an apology on his Twitter account. He later followed up by denying his agency's statement and retweeting his lawyer but has since removed the tweets.[10]
