You can't modify the build file that generates your .tex file? Something as
simple as renaming haru.tex to haru.ltx might fix things for you.
Some more questionable suggestions, while you wait for the experts to weigh in.
C-h v shows that I have the following entries in auto-mode-alist:
("\\.[tT]e[xX]\\'" . tex-mode)
("\\.ltx\\'" . latex-mode)
Do you ever use plain-tex-mode at all? If not, or only very infrequently, you
could see if
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\[tT]e[xX]\\'" . latex-mode))
in your .emacs or init.el helps.

According to the variable TeX-format-list at tex.el:3640, a file will have to
start with \documentclass, or \begin, \section, \subsection, etc. for auctex to
go into latex-mode. The last entry in the list is a catchall regexp "." that
invokes plain-tex-mode.
