Shōchi no suke

Shōchi no suke (Translated: "That's a Fact") is the fourth ending of One Piece. It is sung in Japanese by Suitei-Shoujo, and for the Funimation dub in English by Stephanie Young.

Ending
The ending begins with a black screen, with a small scope panning around, beginning with Usopp briefly, then pans, first with Zoro, then panning to Nami, quickly panning past Luffy to Sanji, then pans one last time towards Luffy.



Then it shows the characters individually, in a different coloring style. First, it shows Luffy gripping his straw hat on his head. Next it shows Zoro from the side, his arms crossed as he looks off. Then it shows Nami from her side, holding her finger out, within the middle of her showing, Nico Robin's mouth is seen mouthing the lyrics of the song, before going back to Nami. It then goes to Usopp, looking determined, then to Sanji, holding his hand out while a cigarette is in his mouth. Once more, it shows Robin partially, only from the breast to her mouth, leaning on her hand as she mouths the lyrics once more briefly.

It then shows the Going Merry in a sea storm, with a large tide to the left. Afterward, Luffy and Shanks are shown in profile view facing away from each other. It then shows the previous foes they have encountered from left to right: Alvida, Buggy the Clown, Kuro, Smoker, Arlong, and lastly, Crocodile. It then goes to the original picture from the beginning, this time seen in full instead of through a scope. It finally goes to Luffy, as the camera rotates around him, his crew seen behind him as he tips his hat upward and smiles.

Lyrics
If there is a treasure out there to be found, the odds that you'll find it are slim to none. The world's such a big place, the oceans are wide. Dumb luck alone won't help you find it. Just give up, it's astronomical.

Even so.

If someone tries to keep us from moving on, the laughter behind our backs just keeps us strong. It's too bad 'cuz we're still sailing forward, so bon voyage!

Just leave us alone!

It may be foolish chasing impossible things, but I just gotta try! The crazier the dream, the more ambition, I'm gonna need!

It may be foolish driving on, but I know, that I just gotta fight! The farther the sea, the greater paradise, we're gonna find!

Don't give up, just keep on trying, and you'll see that you're closer to... The horizon of your dreams!
