Early Life

Asa Akira was born on January 3, 1986, in New York City. She is the only child of Japanese immigrant parents. 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." She lived in SoHo until age nine. Her family moved back to Tokyo, Japan, when Asa was nine years old because her father, a portrait photographer, was relocated there for work. The family lived there until she was 13, then they moved back to the United States. They first moved to Brooklyn and later resided in Clinton Hill.

She has described her childhood as "perfectly normal" and that her family spoke Japanese at home and were "health nuts" who avoided junk food. As a teenager, Akira worked as a cashier at a children's bookstore called Books of Wonder. Akira was able to secure a scholarship to attend the United Nations International School in Manhattan because her grandfather had been a Japanese diplomat for 45 years. However, she was not invited to return in her sophomore year due to her poor grades, so Asa enrolled at Washington Irving High School in Gramercy Park, NYC.
