with all the recent script deciphering, here's some sought-after information. we now know the name of the 80's/90's cuttlefish idol duo, and 3 of their best hits!
their official name is the COIKALS (kouika + gals). their songs are called
1. pop pop pop
2. hakkisyon!
3. Bye bye

made a clean graphic of the translation of the text on Splatoon 2's Sunken Scroll 24. I cant take credit for all the translation of the scroll, as it was a group effort. See the replies for more info about square script!

i had heard before the "G" name of the cash in splatoon is short for "geso" (japanese word for tentacle) not "gold" but i never found the source until now...the japanese version of badge arcade is the only time this has ever been mentioned. it says the coin is called a "Gesocoin" twitter.com/jogiostar/stat…
55
a theory ive seen floating around is that we'll have some kind of cell phone interface to watch the news or to navigate menus or whatever. found something on the splatoon 3 jp website that may add some more fuel to that fire....
56
now that its tuesday im glad to see the screenshots from people opening up splatoon 2 and seeing for themselves that "jelfonzo fuck you tuesday" is real and is not an elaborate hoax
57
visual representation of me waking up bleary-eyed at 7:30 am and watching the splatoon 3 trailer not processing a single thing
58
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.
59
if splatoon 2 gets updated to patch out the 'fuck you' shirt it will be my proudest accomplishment in life

LOLLLL FOR FUCKS SAKE twitter.com/GameXplain/sta…

In Splatoon 2, Jelfonzo changes his shirt daily, and one of the designs he changes into is this white and red shirt with inkling text on it. extracting the texture gets us a better look at the text on the shirt, and its in a decipherable script.
and it translates to...
"FUCK YOU"

my uncle who works at spaltoon told me weed is legal in inkopolis
63
yes im a splatoon artist yes ive never drawn marina before
64
when designing inklings (and octolings) you can get really weird in their tentacle styles and fashion choices: the official concept artists do it too! twitter.com/nochiirasu/sta…
66
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
67
society if every level of octo expansion had sunken scrolls that gave us lore about the deepsea and the octarians
68
if you ever wondered, "gee wtf is up with the octo oven's faces, did the octarian army make sentient bread?"
heres the answer
69
imagine a world where you can refine fetuses into gasoline....
imagine no longer....
70
is the splatoon fanbase ready to hear that theres no proof that rival octolings are wearing hypnoshades or any kind of hypnotic eyewear
71
im gonna gaslight any customers who ask about the music
72
looks like localization did a little whoopsie and used the exact same joke twice. now we have two things in splatoon named "flipper flopper"!
74
while watching the new trailer, all i could think of was this concept art from the second artbook!
