Saki Hatsumi is a Japanese former pornographic film actress who was active between 2010 and 2017. A highly prolific and versatile performer, Hatsumi has over 900 credited AV appearances spanning over seven years and numerous genres. She is also a voice actress and singer.

Born in October 15, 1990 in Chiba prefecture, Hatsumi debuted as an adult-film actress in January 2010 under the name Shizuku. In an interview, she said her decision to become an AV actress was made during her high school years. At the time of her debut, she was what is called in the industry a "project actress", which refers to freelance actresses who play bit roles or work in ensemble productions often without name credit. They are at the bottom of the AV hierarchy, but Hatsumi is an example of someone who worked her way up into starring roles with an exclusive contract with a production company.

Hatsumi's first appearances were under the Rocket label of the noted AV company Soft On Demand. During her first years she appeared mostly in ensemble productions under SOD's numerous labels and was often un-credited. Her roles ranged from various fetishes to lesbian porn and simulated rape.
