"Sakura no Ki ni Narō" (桜の木になろう, "Let's Become Cherry Blossom Trees") is a 20th single by Japanese idol girl group AKB48, released on February 16, 2011.

Main song from this single was redone in Thai as B-track by BNK48 and released in 2022.

Release information

It is the 20th major-label single (22nd overall) released by AKB48. It was released in five versions: a limited type-A CD+DVD edition, a regular type-A CD+DVD edition, a limited type-B CD+DVD edition, a regular type-B CD+DVD edition, and a limited CD-only theater edition. The limited type-A and type-B editions came with a national handshaking event ticket, while the theater edition came with a "Sakura no Ki ni Narō" handshaking event ticket and one member picture at random. The title track was used as the theme song for the drama Sakura Kara no Tegami: AKB48 Sorezore no Sotsugyō Monogatari, which starred all AKB48 members. The single sold 655,344 copies on its first day of release, which is at the time, the most that any artist has sold in a single day since Oricon started reporting daily sales in March 2009.[1]

When the music video published in YouTube, official discretion states that "The most heart-warming song in all of AKB48 history is born."[2]
