Why does Octavio always stay in octopus form? this age-old splatoon lore mystery finally has an official answer: he was injured.
funny thing is, this was in what was supposed to be a "review" section of splatoon's story in the October 2018 issue of Nintendo Dream magazine.

i feel SO bad for all these concert goers that are forced to calmly SIT for this insane concert

if anyone for some reason doubted that the salmon filets in makomart really were salmonid meat or their whole thing about not fearing death...behold: twitter.com/Timtams_art/st…

I saw a few lines of Big Run news dialogue that were raising concern, namely about those implying salmonids were just dumb animals so.... ENG vs JP

ive been seeing a lot of speculation that Frye is a vampire squid (to the point of it getting treated as fact), and even ive been getting asked about it so...for several reasons, i absolutely do not think she is a vampire squid. I think shes just a normal inkling. here's why!...

a year and a half and a trip to tokyo later. we got em boys

my tl right now is a chaotic back and forth of 'holy shit, off the hook' and 'holy shit, fuck america'
33
id like more of the JP side of the splatoon community to be aware of how thoroughly the inkling language has been deciphered by those on the english speaking side (because it is a cool thing!)

years before inkopolis plaza, the tutorial area of splatoon 2 in the backstreets of inkopolis square was the hub of the city's fashion culture.
the first firefin brand shirts were sold here by artists named Saygo and a75ching.
a75ching has also designed the logo for squidforce. twitter.com/Splatfacts/sta…

as an added bonus, even the inkling letters (square script) are in alphabetical order! twitter.com/cosmo_splt/sta…

if you ever wondered, "gee wtf is up with the octo oven's faces, did the octarian army make sentient bread?"
heres the answer

Theres a lower res map that has areas that are unlabeled in the higher res map?? "Yokosuka Peninsula" "Chi Ba Region"
after years of debate we can finally rest. this is where inkopolis and the splatlands are. tokyo. the tokyo to atami comparison was literal. there it is.
42
is the splatoon fanbase ready to hear that theres no proof that rival octolings are wearing hypnoshades or any kind of hypnotic eyewear

From the pre-order page for Splatune 3 on ebten:
"Special features include a chat about music between Marie, Marina, and Big Man, tweets from C-Side bass vocalist Beika, and an article about the secrets of the hit band, Front Roe."
so Beika is their name! (and has a deep voice)

already been seeing a crappily google translated version this piece of the Splatoon 3 website getting passed around and people getting confused over the word "kimi" and google translate throwing in "he." so heres a better translation to pass around.
45
an unfortunate loss for the english localization:
in english pearl greets the cap'n with a 'Mic check, one-two, who the heck are you?!' rhyme. meanwhile in jp...
'SHUT UPPPP!!! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!!!'

splatoon 3's Sunken Scroll 14 translated and typeset just for fun.
スプラトゥーン3のミステリーファイル14はイカ語から翻訳しました。
original/transcribed text from Inkling script to latin script (weird romaji) /ENG/日本語

splatoon 3 story spoilers
so here was my reaction to THAT scene
48
once again i am reminded just how fucked up it is that for everyone playing splatoon in english that wants to get into the game's lore we just. cant even trust the version of the game we're playing because there's info that's blatantly false bc localization thought itd be funny
49
ppl who overanalyze splatoon's lore 🤝people who overanalyze the idols
"marina being the villain in splatoon 3 is a terrible idea"
50
looks like localization did a little whoopsie and used the exact same joke twice. now we have two things in splatoon named "flipper flopper"!
