Our ink tank is, like, huge. There's also a Shiver (Hohojiro mask) charm hanging from it! Our kit is built from a lot of scap that seems to be laid around the island, a gas (?) tank for the ink tank, to the right a can attached to it with a lamp as an indicator on top, to the left a fan with tubes tied on it. Maybe that helps spray ink around us as we shoot forward.
Deep cut: New outfits!
All 3 got their signature charms remade with what seems to be like glass or translucent plastic.
Big man: Pretty clean design, but I'll mention the little squid shaped gadget that's attached to one strap. He seems to be more prepared to set up a camp than anything. Also he carries a pan, pop off.
Now, on to more details on Shiver and Frye.
Their new hairstyles are amazing!! But they also have an important detail to share: they have a matching X mark on the same side.
They also have matching earrings of bait hooks, Shiver's in silver or the right ear and Frye's in gold on the left ear.
Shiver also has a Hohojiro themed hairpin
3 visible regions but unknown at the south
Our base is probably placed in the center of it all.
And our first landing seems to be in the icey region to the East.
The green letters read from the newspaper: GJIK SEGIKF, whatever that means. (please don't google it, it gives some inappropriate results.) Someone will have to decipher it.
Maps, I compared them to the world map we have from S3 but I can't connect them to anything.
Ancient ruins? They remind me of the Shakōki-dogū statue and Baltoy pokemon
Shark eggs on the ground?!
Helper tobot: you walk around with it, probably collecting items that it will have to process.
Lastly, the mysterious eye. The eyelid opened like it's a sea creature so it may be something bigger than the King Salmonids we know.
EDIT: It's probably smollusk. Or something to do with Side Order again. Oh my god. Look at the glitch effect.
Jayvik matching wallpapers from that one freaky scene. (Jayce is mirrored in that one above, so they can face each other.)
I also did one with Viktor being mirrored too and Jayce facing the right direction, in case anyone wants them this way. (Yes, I fixed Viktor's moles in the mirrored one to be accurate)
Thanks for looking at my brainrot jamilly, love you
Splatoon 3 Grand Festival trailer details you might have missed:
1) Arriving at the Grand Festival:
You are greeted by this gate of ink streams flowing down. Pink, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, close to the colors of the rainbow! Also a big sign with the GRAND FESTIVAL logo on top.
"Sometimes when colors clash and mix, you end up with mud. But every now and then you get to see a beautiful rainbow!"
The fest lasts 72h-starting September 13th (Friday) 01:00 GMT+1 and ending September 16th (Monday) 01:00 GMT +1.
Fridays always have a sunset during events!
We can notice that the idols are wearing their default outfits during the sunset and are in separate stages-split into their groups.
Squid Sisters, Off the Hook, Deep Cut in their original outfits.
Weekends always have nighttime!
In both different stage settings (will go into more detail bellow) the idols are wearing their new special Grand Festival outfits.

3) Concert stage settings and details
3.1) Sunset/Friday: Setting 1
The shows take place under a big tent with lit up walls!
Squid Sisters, Deep Cut using the same stage setup. (There isn't any footage of Off the Hook using this setup, but we can assume they will use it as well)
The wall projections switch between a diamond-shapped pattern and images of Squids/Octopi.

Floating projections of diamond shapes and images of Squids/Octopi appear close to the stage-same as the wall projection at the time.

3.2) Sunset/Friday: Setting 2
It appears to be a different stage setup which is also used during the sunset. It's an outdoors stage facing the new plaza.
Off the Hook, Deep Cut using the same stage setup. (There isn't any footage of the Squid Sisters using this setup, but we can assume they will use it as well)
* * Editor's note* *
My guess here is that:
a) either one of the two will be used early in the final week and the other one later during the week or
b) there's a third stage which we weren't shown, (I got that idea since both setups can only host one group) so that all the idols perform in different stages at the same time. And under some criteria, they switch stages-probably just by going through a loading screen. Or you can choose.
3.3) Saturday
All the idols are wearing their new outfits! They are gathered on one big venue which contains 3 different platforms-one for each group.
Squid Sisters in the center, Off the Hook on the left, Deep Cut on the right.
* * Editor's note * *
They can switch positions! Maybe depending on the song, or randomly every time the plaza loads. Or maybe the platforms switch positions by moving counter-clockwise every few minutes. It can be seen in the images bellow:
First image: Middle SS, left OtH, right DC
Second image: Middle OtH, left DC, right SS
Third image: Middle DC, left SS, right OtH
Stage details:
Depending on which idol is singing, their respective lights on stage turn on. (It's easily noticeable here where you can see Pearl's mouth move as her light is on while Callie and Marie aren't moving their mouths and their lights are off.)
SS: Callie - Magenta, Marie - Lime green
OtH: Pearl - Pink, Marina - Teal
DC: Shiver - Blue, Big Man - Red, Frye - Yellow

3.4) Sunday
Now or Never Seven join the stage which is a single platform this time! They will be singing a new mix or a brand new song! Also there are stage fire machines and the edges of the wall around the stage is on fire. How cool is that
From left to right they are positioned as: Marina-Callie, Frye-Big Man-Pearl, Shiver-Marie.

4) Background decorations/characters
Wide view of an area away from the concert stages.
On the left can be seen posters of Big Man (green), Marie (Pink), Marina (Purple), Shiver (Green), Callie (Pink) all in the artstyle of Splatoon 2 OtH posters.
On the right, the tour bus for Now or Never Seven.
Close to the bus, posters of Shiver (Green), Frye (Green), Big Man (Green) all in the artstyle of Splatoon 2 OtH posters.
Jellyfish made out of paper floating in the sky attached to thin lines.
Boat in gold colour that resembles the wooden dinghy seen in the Grizzco lobby. It contains the giant Statues from the plazas also painted in gold, and some appear to not be completely built.
This band on "Sunset: Setting 2" is from Mahi Mahi Resort! (Thanks @Rachoogian for noticing it)
A poster near the Grand Festival gate that depicts DJ Octavio!!
A very cool security guard standing close to the "Sunset: Setting 1" stage.
5) The logos of the theme, a cool little detail.
Past is supported by the Squid Sisters, from Splatoon 1 and looks one-dimensional.
Present is supported by Off the Hook, from Splatoon 2 and looks two-dimensional.
Future is supported by Deep Cut, from Splatoon 3, and looks three-dimensional.
(These are just my speculations from analysing the trailer-don't take them for granted.) I could go on and on to comment about their outfits but maybe in a future post, this ended up way longer than I expected.
Let me know if I got something wrong or want me to comment on anything that I missed! Or something you didn't know and found out about now!
Thank you for reading and enjoy the Splatfest! くコ:彡 Ｃ:。ミ
