"Hare Ame Nochi Suki ♡" (晴れ 雨 のち スキ ♡, After the Rain, I'll Still Love You ♡) is the first single of the J-pop idol group Morning Musume subgroup Morning Musume Sakuragumi, released on September 18, 2003. In addition to the title song and its karaoke version, the single also contains Sakuragumi's version of "Dekkai Uchū ni Ai ga Aru", which was originally a B-side on Morning Musume single "The Peace!". Morning Musume Otomegumi also did a version of "Dekkai Uchū ni Ai ga Aru" at the same time as Morning Musume Sakuragumi on their first single, "Ai no Sono (Touch My Heart!)". The A-side features fellow Hello! Project member Atsuko Inaba on chorus.
The single was very successful, selling roughly 81,866 copies (6,495 copies more than Otomegumi's 1st single "Ai no Sono (Touch My Heart!)") and reaching Number 2 on the Oricon charts, charting for eight weeks.[1]
