Ai Takabe (高部 あい Takabe Ai, born August 16, 1988) in Tokyo, Japan is a Japanese actress and voice actress. She was previously affiliated with Oscar Promotion.
On October 15, 2015, Ai Takabe was arrested for alleged cocaine possession. [2] This resulted in a massive loss of industry support and business for her.
On March 30, 2016 it was announced that the charges were dropped. The Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office who made the decision to drop the charges on the 27-year-old released a statement that indicates that it was not due to a lack of evidence or condolence of Takabe’s actions, but due to "a comprehensive consideration of the very small amount of narcotics in her possession, as well as the social sanctions she has already received."[3][4]
