Taiyou no Komachi Angel (太陽のKomachi Angel, Town Angel from the Sun) is the fifth single by B'z and their first number-one hit, released on June 13, 1990.

The release of the single would prove to be one of the most pivotal in the band's history. With its debut at the top of the Weekly Oricon Singles chart with 52,000 in sales, it gave the band their first number one single and would begin a record streak of consecutive singles that have continued to take home the honor for over two decades. The single ranked as the 27th highest-selling for the year of 1990 and spent a total of 47 weeks on the charts. Ultimately, the single was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of Japan.

The single was simultaneously remastered and re-released on March 26, 2003 along with nine other of the band's older singles and the then-latest single, "IT'S SHOWTIME!!". On the daily chart at launch, B'z held a monopoly over the chart's top eleven slots, with the new single ranking at the top and the re-issues covering the remaining ten. Ultimately, B'z would set a record that week for holding nine of the Top 10 slots for the week of release, with "Taiyou no Komachi Angel" coming in tenth place.
