The heroine represents the sunflower, forced to survive away from the light in a dark, predatory environment.
The title itself, Sunflowers Bloom at Night , serves as a metaphor for the characters' situations. While sunflowers traditionally symbolize positivity and follow the sun, blooming "at night" suggests a perversion of nature or a forced growth in the darkness of despair. The series explores:
“A client came to me after surviving the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. She said, ‘I used to be a sunflower. Now I feel like the sun is gone. But I’m still here.’ So I tattooed a sunflower with its head bowed, but open, at midnight. We wrote ‘Himawari wa Yoru ni Saku’ underneath. She cried. I cried.”
