Life and career
Haga began his career as an AV director at least as early as May 1996, when he inaugurated V&R Products UME label with the video, The Legend of Mature Woman: New Version, with amateur actresses. Two months later, he directed another "mature" video for V&R, Immoral Aunt In-law: I Love You!, again featuring amateur actresses. Haga directed several more videos for V&R including five videos in 1999 of the Three Mature Sisters series starring groundbreaking AV actress Kyōko Aizome (41 years old at the time) and a three-part set from April 2000, Mrs. Lawyer Hitomi Kobayashi, with early AV Idol Hitomi Kobayashi, who had retired and then returned to the AV scene as a "mature" actress.
By the early 2000s, Haga was also working for other AV studios including for Moodyz by May 2002 and for KMP as early as January 2003. At KMP, he was a regular director for their "mature" label Million Madams where he worked with MILF actresses Ayano Murasaki, Runa Akasaka and Chisato Shouda.
The Madonna studio, specializing in "mature women" videos, had begun releasing their first AVs in December 2003. Haga was a Madonna director by July 2004, when he supervised the first entry in Madonna's "Failure As a Mother" series starring Runa Akasaka and Sakura Sakurada. He became their chief director, with a listing of more than 150 videos for the company by late 2011.
At the 2006 Moodyz Awards, a competition among the major companies affiliated with the Hokuto Corporation, Haga won the 5th Place Best Director Award. For the 2009 AV Grand Prix, Madonna nominated Haga's Raped Female Teacher, starring Reiko Makihara, which won one of the Special Awards for Mature Woman Videos.
In 2011, Haga directed Ayano Murasaki and Reiko Makihara in 3D Co-Starring Mature Beauties: Tempting Love of Mother and Aunt, a 3D adult video released by Madonna on February 25, 2011.
