Sakura no yoru
Sakura no yoru
rock
Epic Japanese anime rock opening song, 1 minute 30 seconds, 168 BPM, key of D minor. 
Mix traditional Japanese instruments (shamisen, koto, taiko drums) with modern rock band (distorted electric guitar, bass, drum set) and orchestral strings. 
Start with a soft shamisen intro and ambient wind sound, then gradually add taiko drums and electric guitar for tension. 
Verse with clean guitar and shamisen melody, pre-chorus with rising intensity, then explosive chorus with full rock band and fast double-kick drums. 
Include dramatic string harmonies in the background, emotional and powerful vocals in Japanese, heroic yet dark tone, perfect for a samurai revenge anime. 
End with a short shamisen outro and fading wind sound.

Japanese lyrics to be sung exactly as written:

Verse 1:
静かな道 血が凍りつく
過去の影 まだ追いかける
憎しみの火 消えることなく
世界が崩れても進む

Pre-Chorus:
この足音 揺るがない
刀が誓う…

Chorus:
江戸の灰から 再び立ち上がる
残酷な運命を断ち切って
赤い空に 桜が泣いても
僕は… 消えはしない

Verse 2:
響く足音 鋼の声
切り裂く音 残るは無い
闇夜が命を飲み込んでも
光は… まだ消えない

Bridge:
血は歴史の墨となり
傷は誓いに変わる

Chorus (Reprise):
江戸の灰から 再び立ち上がる
残酷な運命を断ち切って
赤い空に 桜が泣いても
僕は… 消えはしない

Outro:
江戸の灰よ…消えるな
我が名は永遠に…戦場に
