Hmm…. Inklings.

Using this as a chance 2 point back to my Octavio, Octarian anatomy is not the same as inkling anatomy due to having actual muscles and not being fully ink, BUT, generally the same rules regarding skin, though with a higher water tolerance + can’t collapse into puddles.

Haikara Walker Translations: Inkopolis Fashion Movement

My latest translations from pages 78 - 81 of the Japanese-only Splatoon artbook, HaikaraWalker. Have you ever wondered where the freshest Inklings hung out before Inkopolis Plaza? Whether or not you’ve asked yourself that, I’m here to tell you that they hung out in a place called the Inkopolis Backstreets (or at least that’s my best translation of the name), which is now the tutorial area of Splatoon 2. The article also talks about the emergence of various fashions and brands of Inkopolis, especially the history of the brand Firefin. It’s a lil long, but read my translation of it all below if it strikes your fancy.

So glad the Splatoon Wave 2 DLC is the devs looking over at a bunch of children and going 'Hey, you ever read 1984'?

[spheciform]

Something about how octopuses go white under fear and are often grey in death. Just. Just something to think about. With all the coral bleaching imagery. Yknow.

I'm not saying they're literally dead but it fits very well with the imagery!

Wandercrust part 3 is going to be Sean traveling to a desolate nuclear wasteland

[bugandbreakfast]

still processing side order but i was thinking:

comparing octo expansion to the look at the environment in this new expansion: we're moving from sanitization of sea life to bleaching... hmm..

-and the deep sea metro vs the elevator glimpses we get here, moving down vs moving up?

-with all the bleaching this might not be the case, but we are seeing smaller fish that could be more common in a sunlit zone compared to a deep sea midnight zone- maybe we'll get a look at other sea life?

(+ all the brain coral/ neuron imagery has me staring!! i hope we get more info abt 8 in addition to pearlina!)

This old bleaching brain coral oc now is relevant to splatoon 3 lore
