Donomichi Happy! / Ame ni Utaeba / Ai ni Tsuite Kangaeru yo / End Roll (どのみちハッピー!/雨に唄えば/愛について考えるよ/エンドロール; Anyway Happy! / Singing in the Rain / Think About Love / End Roll) is the first ever quadruple A-side indies single by Up Up Girls (2). It was released on October 20, 2020 as part of a collaboration project between T-Palette Records and the crowdfunding website WIZY. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, it is no longer safe to hold release events, and so this crowdfunding project was born to find a new way to promote singles and encourage fans to buy CDs.[1][2] When the crowdfunding campaign closed, it had successfully raised 133% of its target goal of five million yen.[3]

Fans who donated to the crowdfunding project received a version of the single with a limited jacket cover, as well as a thank you video, and other various benefits depending on the amount donated.[4]
