to pursue a dream that would soon change her life.

an exclusive model for No No! magazine in 2020, where she has since featured prominently,
including achieving her first solo cover in October 2022. Her talents have stretched
to the acting arena as well, with appearances in TV dramas such as Moshimo, Ikemen Deku no
Koko ga Atara and Ramen, solidifying her versatility as an artist.
Sakura Endo's hobbies and interests paint a picture of a multifaceted individual with
a love for Japanese sweets, movies like The Cat Returns, and a penchant for reading novels
by authors such as Kanae Minato. Her musical tastes are eclectic, ranging from J-pop sensations
like Little Gleam Monster to classic acts including Southern All-Stars, showcasing her
wide appreciation for the arts. In the world of Nogizaka 46, Sakura shines brightly, admired for
her skill with the clarinet, her unique nickname Saku-chan, and her friendly relations with fellow
