A hot-rolled steel sheet has a predetermined chemical composition in which a microstructure includes 99% or more of martensite by volume fraction and a remainder in microstructure including residual austenite and ferrite, in a cross section parallel to a rolling direction, an average aspect ratio of prior austenite grains is less than 3.0, a proportion of sulfides having an aspect ratio of more than 3.0 among sulfides having an area of 1.0 μm2 or more is 1.0% or, less, in a thickness middle portion, and a pole density of {211} orientation is 3.0 or less, and a tensile strength TS is 980 MPa or higher.
