Hiroka Yaginuma (born September 23, 1981) is a Japanese born professional wrestler. She is best known for her work in the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). Yaginuma has worked under the ring names Hiroka Yaginuma and "Raven Hiroka" but is now billed simply as Hiroka. She is a former holder of the CMLL World Women's Championship. Yaginuma is married to Mexican Mini-Estrella Pequeño Damián 666 who also works for CMLL.

Hiroka Yaginuma trained under Mima Shimoda and Shinobu Kandori before her professional wrestling debut, and would later receive further training from Jose Luis Feliciano and El Hijo Del Gladiador when she began working for Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) in Mexico. Yaginuma made her debut on September 18, 2002 and initially worked in her native Japan. In 2005 she began working regularly for the Mexican wrestling promotion CMLL as she moved from Japan to Mexico to live. Initially she wrestled under her full name but later changed to "Raven Hiroka" and later on to simply "Hiroka". On June 9, 2006 Hiroka defeated Marcela to win the CMLL World Women's Championship in Mexico City, D. F.. Over the next six months Hiroka would successfully defend the championship against Marcela on several occasions, India Sioux, and Lady Apache. On October 13, 2006 Hiroka defeated Lady Apache in a Luchas de Apuestas (Spanish for "Bet match"), forcing Lady Apache to have her hair shaved off after the match. Two months later, on December 25, 2006, Lady Apache gained a measure of revenge by winning the CMLL Women's title from Hiroka.
