Kaori Housako (宝迫 香織, Hōsako Kaori, born September 23, 1988) is a Japanese professional wrestler and actress. As of November 2023, she is signed to WWE, where she performs on the SmackDown brand under the ring name Kairi Sane (カイリ・セイン, Kairi Sein), where she is a member of Damage CTRL. She has been one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, the Kabuki Warriors since January 26, 2024 in her second reign.

From 2012 to 2017, she wrestled for the Japanese promotion World Wonder Ring Stardom under the ring name Kairi Hojo (宝城 カイリ, Hōjō Kairi). Embodying a "Pirate Princess" persona, she became a one-time World of Stardom Champion, a one-time Wonder of Stardom Champion, a three-time Goddess of Stardom Champion and a five-time Artist of Stardom Champion. She also won the 2015 5★Star GP and the 2016 Goddesses of Stardom Tag League.

In 2017, she signed with WWE, where she adopted the ring name Kairi Sane. She won the inaugural Mae Young Classic tournament the same year, and was then assigned to the NXT brand. She captured the NXT Women's Championship in 2018 and subsequently won the 2018 NXT Year-End Awards for Female Competitor of the Year and for Overall Competitor of the Year. In 2019, she debuted on WWE's main roster, where she became a one-time and the longest reigning WWE Women's Tag Team Champion, along with Asuka as part of The Kabuki Warriors. The team also received 2019 WWE Year-End Award for Women's Tag Team of the Year. In 2020, she returned to Japan to join her husband, and worked as a WWE ambassador and trainer in her native country until December 2021 when her contract expired.

After her stint with WWE, she returned to World Wonder Ring Stardom in February 2022 and performed under ring name Kairi (stylized in all caps). She also performed for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) where she was a one-time and inaugural IWGP Women's Champion. She became a free agent in March 2023 and returned to WWE in November 2023 at Crown Jewel.
