Sakura Mankai (さくら満開; Cherry Blossoms in Full Bloom) is the second single from Morning Musume Sakura Gumi. It is the longest song ever from any artist in Hello! Project, except remixes, with a total playtime of 6 minutes and 35 seconds.
Instead of having its own Single V, it shared one with the Morning Musume Otome Gumi single released the same day.
