"Ai Araba It's All Right" (愛あらば It's All Right, Ai Araba Ittsu Ōru Raito, "If There's Love It's All Right"), commonly abbreviated to "AiAra", is the twenty-first single of J-pop group Morning Musume; both the single itself and the Single V were released on January 21, 2004. It sold a total of 108,368 copies, reaching a peak of #2 on the weekly Oricon charts and charting for seven weeks,[1] while the Single V reached a peak of #6 and charted for eight weeks on the Oricon DVD charts.[2] The single placed 89th on the overall year's chart for 2004. The single also marked the graduation of one of the founding members of Morning Musume, Natsumi Abe, who also went on to have a solo career within Hello! Project. The limited edition comes with a 52-page photobook featuring the members and comes in the special packaging what Hello Project solo singers and bands have used before.

The B-side, "Dekiru Onna", features a vocal and instrumental arrangement heavily inspired by Queen.

The single was certified Gold by RIAJ for physical sales of over 100,000 units.[3]
