Sakura Castle is a theme dungeon accessed via the Dimensional Mirror. The monsters and maps are all based on Ninja Castle. In fact, Sakura Castle replaced Zipangu's Ninja Castle in several versions. A few versions have both castles, however. You cannot face the boss unless you have completed all of the quests up to opening the barrier. The final boss is the Daimyo Toad, which transforms into the Gigatoad upon death.

;General notes from Rise Against (v121) patch notes
Tae Gong the fisherman finds a book while fishing, and decides to dispose of it by giving it to you. Wiz the Librarian senses this, and runs to you, telling you to find out what's happening in the book. As you enter the book, you discover that the town's Daimyo ruler has been replaced with an impostor, according to Sasuke the guard. It's up to you to find the Daimyo's daughter, Princess Suzume, and to find out where the real Daimyo is, leading up to a boss battle with the [[MapleStory/Monsters/Level 71-80#Daimyo Toad|impostor]], who is revealed to really be a [[MapleStory/Monsters/Level 71-80#Gigatoad|giant toad]].

==Differences from Ninja Castle==
When Sakura Castle replaced Kaede/Ninja Castle, the entire series of maps was replaced. The outside was given two new areas with monsters, the inner walls of the castle became linear, the maze through the castle was replaced by a linear progression of maps, the jump quest was removed, and all of the monsters were made easier (to fit within the 70-80 level range).
 
Note that Crusader Codex cards from Ninja Castle are shared by the Sakura Castle versions of those monsters, so if you finished the set previously, it is still completed. It is now much easier to complete the set, since Kacchuu Musha (now Sakura Samurai) was replaced by a normal monster version and Castellan/Emperor (now Daimyo Toad) was replaced by an instanced area that always spawns the boss. Players no longer have to wait for spawn timers to kill these monsters. Also: Sakura Toads drop Daimyo cards.
