#47 onward is an electronic pop track featuring vocals by Pearl and Marina.[1] The instrumental is mostly electronic, but includes a high string arrangement in different parts of the song that grows more elaborate as the track progresses. Just over three minutes in, the song modulates up a half step to A minor/C major, with Marina reprising her pre-chorus melody over an octave up during the climax.

Samples and interpolations

Trivia

  • This is the only end credits song in the Splatoon series to be credited to a non-idol musician, namely Dedf1sh.

Etymology

Onward refers to moving forward, as the conclusion of the first battle with Overlorder can be seen as leading to multiple future deeds (the overall theme of striving for a better future presented throughout Side Order and especially during the aforementioned battle, the more immediate goal of Off the Hook returning to their world tour, and even the player moving on to their next run).

It could also be a meta reference to the Onward! jingle and catchphrase from Octo Valley, which is used as a motif for the Octarians throughout the series and is especially present in the soundtrack of Side Order.

Names in other languages

The name of the song is the same as English in all languages except for Japanese.
