    On July 18, 2020, at 1:35 pm (JST), Miura was found unresponsive after hanging himself in his closet at his home in Minato, Tokyo. His body was discovered by his manager, who had been ready to pick him up for work and then checked up on him after he did not respond to the messages, phone calls, or doorbell sounds. He was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead at 2:10 pm. Police believe Miura died by suicide, as an apparent suicide note was found in his room. The note, which was written in Miura's notebook, was undated, but he expressed anxiety and thoughts about dying. Miura's friends have stated he showed no signs of being suicidal prior to his death. Media news outlets linked it to cyberbullying and hate comments on social media, but Miura's friends and colleagues partially or completely refuted the claims.

    NHK reported on July 20, 2020, that Miura's funeral and burial services had already been held. While fans paid tribute to Miura by leaving flowers outside of his condominium, his agency, Amuse Inc., announced that they will be setting up an opportunity for fans to pay respects while taking into consideration the COVID-19 pandemic. After the official website for Sekai wa Hoshii Mono ni Afureteru: Tabi Suru Buyer Gokujō List, the travel program Miura had co-hosted since its first broadcast in 2018, posted a statement offering condolences to Miura, this led many users on Twitter to tweet messages addressed to him using the hashtag "SekaiWaHoshiiMonoNiAfureteru" (#世界はほしいモノにあふれてる).

    Miura's second single, "Night Diver", was released posthumously on August 24, 2020, with it pre-released digitally on July 25, 2020. Gift of Fire and The Illusionist, two upcoming projects that Miura co-starred in, were put on hold. Miura's debut single, "Fight for Your Heart", re-entered the music charts, peaking at No. 7 on Oricon Daily Singles Ranking.
