This song was ranked No. 1 in the theme song ranking by NARUTO fans! It has become an important song not only for NARUTO fans but also for FLOW. We can never forget the excitement we feel when we hear you all singing along at our live concerts overseas.


忘れられません。

「伝えに来たよ傷跡辿って」
「傷つかない強さよりも傷つけない優しさを」
最高にNARUTOを表していて泣く

[ImpactedCanine]

All these years later, this song still brings me to tears thinking of Jiraiya. You guys are legends!

[vigrfpp]

ペイン編の主題歌でflowを起用するという名采配
サビの自来也が下駄をパンってするところほんとすき

[tehSunBro]

Man this song still messes me up all those years later. It's also eerily haunting without the "can you hear me" chanting. Probly my absolute favorite by Flow.

[tktk]

Haven’t listened to this song for years, when they started singing together my tears just bursts out of my eyes, this song just brings back so much memories 😭

[santohiji]

This song is so attached to the mv, the moment, the sadness, the movement. It's just so emotional.

[moznxio]

相乗効果がすごい
タイアップ作品に寄り添って曲を作ってくれるFLOWに感謝

[pretty_n_nasty]

iit's been 11 years and this song still rocks the same wayit did when it came out. an absolute LEGEND ♥ made my childhood

[gtfwcez]

カラオケでも絶対歌う曲。
NARUTOで一番の神曲だと思ってる。
自来也先生(泣)

[zmthwfg]

My friend has passed away four years ago, he is one of Naruto fans and he told me that his most favorite song is Sign by FLOW. I hope he could listen this TFT in heaven.

[kaiserwilhelm]

Growing up, Haruka Kanata (AKFG) and Sign (FLOW) were by far the most memorable openings for me. Hearing this almost brings a tear to my eye from the sheer amount of nostalgia

[hanabihaku]

Listening to the song and reading the touching lyrics always bring tears to my eyes. The pain I feel from losing someone who hurt me will protect me, and my true friends who follow my scars have given me hope in life. Thanks, Flow and Naruto for the great song!

[positiveproductions]

This song will forever be engraved in my brain for how awesome that intro was in the arc this was attached to in Naruto seriously though perfect opening for that arc

[shotayamada]

アイス棒をパカンして分け合うとこ
自来也様のサビ前の下駄を合わせるとこ
色んなこと一瞬で思い出す
歌の力ってすごい

[vhttpuz]

I realize

ありがとうファーストテイク！ありがとうFLOW！！！

[xBalli]

I heard this song almost 10 years ago and i still hype with the same feeling, love you guys thank you for giving us such amazing songs and openings!!!

[aechiyo]

Only 2 million? Give this song a justice common! Jiraiya sensei you will always be in our hearts!

[sorawomon]

Flow as a band deserves all the love they get, they are incredible and their work is amazing
