Drift Away - Agent 4 animatic (Splatoon)

- SO uh Agent 4 amiright?
I've had this idea for a while now but I can't lie, skrbbs agent 4 animatic inspired me to actually make my silly idea.
So basically
Its been a few years, and the Squidbeak splatoon is continuing on missions as always, but Agent 4 has not really found a place to fit in with the others. Marie wants to give them an assignment so that they feel included, and so Agent 4 is assigned to watch over octo canyon. This is mostly a wild goose chase sort of scenario, as Marie is just trying to make Agent 4 feel included, but there really isnt anything Agent 4 is needed for.
Time goes on, Agent 4 keeps up with the task, but slowly starts to realize that they really aren't important to the squidbeak splatoon.
They continue to wait for word from Marie but it feels like Marie has completely forgotten what she had sent agent 4 to do. And to be honest, she kind had.
Finally, Agent 4 gets news from Marie, indirectly. The new squidbeak splatoon had gone on a mission to alterna, and there was new recruits and everything had changed, except for 4, who was still watching over octo canyon. Hurt by this news, Agent 4 turns to something that might give them a needed change.
It's a little cringe, but I hope ya'll enjoy nonetheless, I do adore Agent 4.

I just wanted to properly say thank you for making this animatic and inspiring so many people, including me. This animatic will always have a special place in my heart.
Yo its LBo
@@Codename-Thefox Yo no way it's codename: TheFox
@@LBoDraws hi
Time to be sad😭
Same
Marie: I feel like I'm forgetting something...
Callie: If you forgot about it, it can't be that important, right?
Marie: Yeah, I guess that's true.
Agent 4 waiting patiently in Octo Canyon:
OH NOOOO XD
NOOOO You made me cry and laugh at the same time
😅🤣😂😭
this just makes me cry
Post side order I am somewhat sobbing, agent 4 deserved better.
It's so utterly sad that 4 just... Exists. 3 has a place. 8 also has a place. New 3 saved the world. That makes them important. Nintendo really just left 4 out of all that. I just want her to have something. A cameo. Dialogue.
Anything.
Well, if it makes you feel better.
If you spam Marie's dialogue as neo 3 you get: "that look in your eye, it reminds me of a squid I know"
@@Cassette484 oh. Oh my gosh. I keep forgetting that existed. I'm going to cry in happiness now.
@@elizabethramirezthezenshii9691 thata like nothing tho, and really mentioned are they still not. so if that makes you uncontrollably g
happy then that means that nintendo undererstimated 4s fans too much to the point where they made a huge business mistake...
I swear, Agent 4 HAS to appear in Side Order! I mean-! It appearantly takes place in Inkopolis Square! And 3 already got to appear in Octo Expansion AND Return of the Mammalians!
Agent 8 is appearantly the player Character for this DLC again! So that leaves us with Agent 4! Literally the ONLY member of the Squidbeak that hasn't appeared in the game yet!
People say that Splatoon 3 might be the final game, but I will NOT accept it as such until they have given 4 the treatment they rightfully deserve!
@@Cassette484that could technically refer to captain 3 which is sad I hope 4 appears in the dlc
The ending is just the most wonderfully brutal thing. Four's smart! She canonically does a butt ton of school stuff and that's why she didn't recognize Marie as one of the squid sisters. Callie was tricked into the hyponoshades even in the re-fights. Four committed an act of oblivion. And it's beautiful
Octavio is over here trying to convince the rest of the Agency he didn't hypnotize her.
“Guys i did not hypnotize her. She honestly just is a lunatic.”
LMFAO
@@Ponyototoroex i can just imagine this audio going with her probably gonna do it in Gacha or something. th-cam.com/video/rGZ1NgCc_cw/w-d-xo.html
He's like "I was with y'all the whole time😭"
@@heartdolly
“and yall blaming me? not my fault yall didnt discard the glasses”
I can only imagine her singing Other friends when she gets her villain/revenge ark so she's actually remembered
y e s definitely
@@sasspawrilla I second this, is just too fitting!
@@sasspawrilla Like imagine Four appears Post game after defeating Grizz. An animatic of that would probably have Neo 3 as Steven, Marie as Pearl, then Callie & Captain 3 could be Amythest/Garnet.
@@rapidrowlet45Nice idea~!!
And make Deep Cut as the other gems. Shiver as Lapis, Frye as Peridot and Big Man as Bismuth
If 4 is the a villain in Side Order this would fit it perfectly, also you should’ve included Neo 3 as a way of making her feel jealous and replaced
Neo was there when they said, "Survived by her son." That was neo 3
If Agent 4 doesn't make an official appearance in the Side order DLC as either a helping hand or a villain, i'm gonna be sad.
edit: (Yes I'm aware agent 4 didn't make a full appearance, I do have side order.)
same here!!
honestly villain 4 would be such an amazing plot line since we’ve never had an actual evil agent (Not counting sanitized 3 or brainwashed 1 (Callie)) since they were controlled, but rather an agent who WILLINGLY became evil
@TeaTabby REAL I want 4 to be on a villain ark in side order sooooo bad...but knowing Nintendo...
Y E S
She/He deserves that.
I need an epilogue to this, where marie tries to apologize but 4's past the point of no return
Id kill to have someone make a villain arc of her with angst and fluff similiarly to Spinel.
I don’t usually cry over videos but man this hit me a lot. Not only that but -I related to this song a lot especially with the pain in her voice near the end- AGENT 4 DIDN’T EVEN APPEAR IN SIDE ORDER ONLY A CLONE OF HER DID-
THIS PHYSICALLY HURTS ME.
That’s it, I’m personally writing a story about 4 where she gets a happy ending and tons of friends.
Cool!
I'm writing a smol one where she's the villain of Side Order!
Inspired by a theory I already posted on the topic!
I made a story where she actually does get hypnotized and it halfway turns her to an octoling and she controls Inklings while Callie and Marie try to rescue her agent 4 now agent 7, kills Marie and after a few years agent 7 found a friend and had a happy ending
I'm not going to explain all of it cuz it's complicated this all happened after being betrayed by her sister
If Agent 4 (my favourite agent) does not appear in side order (even as an easter egg or the villain) I’m going to go into my villain ark
SAME
SAME AND ILL BUY A BILLBOARD TOO
Reasons why Agent 4 definetly MUST appear in the DLC:
💛 Reason one : They're the ONLY member of the Squidbeak still missing!!!
Agent 8 has been confirmed as the Player Character for Side Order and the rest of the Squidbeak - even Octavio - were all in "Return of the Mamalians"!
The only one still missing in this game is Agent 4!
💛 While we're at the topic of other characters, every recurring Character that has appeared in the trailers until now first debuted in Splatoon 2, but none of them have made any onscreen appearances in Splatoon 3 yet - in other words, until now they've been Splatoon 2 exclusive characters! Agent 8 and Dedf1sh never appeared in Splatoon 3 up until the trailers came, and Off the Hook's only appearance until now was through artwork and music! Pearl and Marina haven't physically appeared yet, but are all but confirmed to do so in the actual DLC!
Infact, Pearl seems to be controlling a little flying drone that seems to be "Side Order"'s counterpart of "Return of the Mamalians"' Lil Buddy!
Pretty much the only significant Splatoon 2 character that has yet to appear in Splatoon 3 is Agent 4 - except for commander Tartar, but that guy is dead so he doesn't count!
💛 Also, Agent 4 is actually mentioned in the Official Splatoon 3 World Map!
Therefore, it's clear Nintendo has not forgotten about 4, but wouldn't it still be weird to mention them here if they were not important to the game in some way?
Infact, Agent 4 was the ONLY other Agent appart from New Agent 3 that was mentioned on the map and the ONLY ONE who was mentioned DIRECTLY! For New Agent 3, the map just said "You Live here" but for Agent 4 it says "Agent 4's home"
💛 Also, Lil Judd is implied to be the new boss of Grizzro Industries after you complete "Return of the Mamalians" - a plot point which should probably get resolved in the DLC, considering the implications that cloning is involved! And it's confirmed that Agent 4 did or might even still work at Grizzro industries!
💛 Also, if you didn't recognize the location in the first trailer, the Official DLC's Webpage read :
"See what has happened to Inkopolis Square from the Splatoon 2 game, and what would've happened if Order thwarted Chaos to rule the city!"
So this confirms, that Side Order indeed takes place in Inkopolis Square - the setting of Splatoon 2!
🖤 Also, side note : It wouldn't be the first time a member of the Squidbeak Splatoon became antagonistic! We saw it in Splatoon 2, with Callie and the Original Agent 3/Cap'n!
And considering the repeaded use of the number 3 in this game...... It seems like a golden opportunity (and a good excuse :3) for the devs to pull that trope a third time!
They already did it with the "Great Zapfish gets stolen plot"!
And considering the rest of the Squidbeak is busy in Alterna, Agent 4 is pretty much the only option available!
@@Aruna_Shadows I just read through all that and god.. I was honestly really sad after watching the side order trailer and not seeing 4 but reading this has actually given me hope. Thank you, random person on the internet.
@@average3176 No problem! With all these reasons, not including Agent 4 in this DLC would practically be a crime in terms of story writing!
nobody:
me: getting deja vu when 4 put on the shades. I see callie in 4 when she put them on.
I crying, vomiting, dying on the floor/positive
please dont die on the floor, I am not a medical professional /lh
Don't worry the villain ark has just begun
I wanna cry rn..
@@BlackHoleQueen we all do
Im gonna join
It always make me sad that seems like they forgot abaut 4
Also i like so much this great job
thank you!! Agent 4 makes me sad :(
@@sasspawrilla i hope soon we know what's up whit her
The thing is, Agent 4 is actually mentioned in the Official Splatoon 3 World Map - infact, they're the ONLY Agent, appart from the player character, who is mentioned!
So it's clear Nintendo has not actually forgotten about them!
Here's to hoping they return in Side Order! 🙏
Agent 4 was a part of my childhood they need more recognization in the game
I love these types of downward character arcs, since it’s so easy to picture yourself feeling just as betrayed. Great work!
She deserves the whole world in her hands right now
agreed
Oohhhh it was killing me already, my stomach ached I knew it was killing me. The intimacy of it all was brutal and devastating.
Then a 18 wheeler with blinking lights and sunglasses painted on the windshield came out of somewhere I probably should have seen but the small and intimate tragedy distracted me. I never had a clue, it hit me and I was gone before I even understood what had happened.
10/10 this channel is fucking incredible
I legitimately almost cried! I miss 4 so much!
I watched it like 20 minutes ago and it still hurts. 4 has always been one of my favorite agents. She’s so special to me and I really hope that she gets brought back at some point, but it seems unlikely):
I had an idea for side order. Agent 4 can be kinda like sanitized cap’n 3 but with a robotic arm that switches between the hero weapons. Agent quatro wouldn’t be brainwashed but driven insane by Marie neglecting her. Here are some lines i cooked up for an interaction between the side order protagonist and 4; “She’s gonna come back.. she’s gonna come back… she’s gotta come back! Oh… stupid octolings! Getting all up in my *woomy*ing private conversation! You’re gonna be splatted in a second just like Marie wanted!” drops down on battlefield. “c’mon! fight me!” eh i’ll stop there
I’VE GOT SPICIER DEETS!!! After you defeat 4 she bullies you more and goes to get the milk. What you get from fighting her is faded hero replica set. Then if there is a hub or something then you can talk to Quatro. Some of her lines would be “Some stupid machine wanted to brainwash me! But i told him ‘Ey mofo! let’s make a deal, give me that funky tech and i’ll fight for you!” and “I still hate octolings. (i’m going to throw Agent 8 outta the window the next time i see her..)” So 4’s personality is mean but witty.
Those are good concepts, but 4 is cannon roommates with agent 8...there's an official art of them playing music together and having fun...are you implying an idea of bc of her insanity she's gone to hate her friends too? Bc I would love to see that (and also a recovery please a recovery)
@@chairn_tHonesty, a mere piece of artwork doesn't proove they are roommates!
One of them could just be visiting the other in it!
Also, Agent 4 is actually mentioned in the Official Splatoon 3 World Map!
And it says "Agent 4's home" not "Agent 4 & Agent 8's home" or something!
i swear if agent 4 doesnt have a role in the dlc or splatoon 4 im starting a villian arc
a villain arc, just like 4
let’s start a protest outside Nintendo HQ?
People say Splatoon 3 might be the last game in the series, but I refuse to accept that until the devs give Agent 4 the apreciation they deserve!
@@Aruna_Shadows same!
I am after 4 just being puppeteered by order and pearl Mariana and 8 not taking a hint of might be 4
I cant breathe because of how sad I am.. if 4 doesn’t get into side order, even as an Easter egg, I WANT TO BUY A BILLBOARD JUST FOR HER!
Well go buy a bill broad 😢
@@_Spider42 they were an Easter egg ig?
@@_Spider42shit
I hope that maybe next game 4 comes back and has an actual speaking roll. I can imagine them opening with this:
“MARIE!”
Camera begins revealing the iconic yellow suit, then their hair, and finally a full zoom out, with 4 looking EXTREMLEY pissed.
“I GOT A FIN TO PICK WITH YOU!”
This made me heart shatter, i hit me so bad. I feel so bad for Agent 4, she was left alone for so long.
I am very normal about this animatic.
The way you drew Four's ponytail in some scenes makes it look similar to Marie's bow, which is a cool detail. Agent 4 deserves so much. Unappreciated hero to world level threat villain arc when?
Tysm!! And real, Agent 4 needs to have their villain arc now
Yo, the song, “All eyes on me” could fit Agent 4 well tbh.
which one?
@@theflamingskull1094 the original one
@@yoshidude8345 there are multiple songs by that title who made the one you're talking about
Are you talking about the 0R3O song by any chance? Or is it another?
@@OphranArts006Yea, the 0R30 version. In fact, someone made a version of that already.
I headcanon that Agent 4 got promoted to head of HR in Grizzco which is why they're too busy to help. Their CEO trying to destroy the world did not help with their workload.
Agent four is my favorite character period, i hate how she’s so overlooked by nintendo. I can’t say how much i love this animatic but it hurts so much, though i would love to see a fanfic or something where agent four gets hypnotized like this.
the inspiration drivin me up a *WALL* (i saw that video too)
I probably picked a bad time to grow attached to agent four, with all the potential bad routes that screw 'er over
but hey
she's in the public eyes again!
sick job, stuff like this does make me wonder how four's gonna be implemented (if she does)
rewatching this animatic after the side order poster reveal is something else
“Aren’t I fool?…” made m saddder tbh
It wkild be fire if you made a sequel to this of 4 finally finding Marie and confronts her, but Marie doesn't remember 4.
This may as well be canon
I'd take it over Side Order's explanation
@@RaychAgent4EVa I cant stand it
@@leeeroyjenkins555 it's not like we have another shot at seeing her either since S4 will likely have a new storyline...
@@RaychAgent4EVa We need 1 more dlc with 4 and Marie
There needs to be dlc for splatoon 4 but they will probably have no characters to use so will make the dlc a prequel to splatoon 4 and it will be about agent 4
The moment I heard: Everyone's gone on without you, I started crying. This was too sad for me...
I have to stop watching Agent 4 animatics I keep sobbing. 😭
this hits especially hard after sIDE oRDER
this was amazing, I love how well a story is told here and how it leaves us wanting more.
Damm i feel kinda sad and happy at the same time
This animatic hits me in the feels every time I watch it, especially towards the end.
When I made my own animatic for Agent 4, I drew some inspiration from this video and how it handles 4. I just wanted to say thanks for that if you don’t mind!
I dont mind at all! I am honored ^^
I swear to cod, we NEED agent 4 as the main villain for splatoon 4!
Sadly he cant be in splat 4 story mode but he might be in the dlc to it as a prequel if not I quit splatoon
The pain that 4 has faced is insane, as being forgotten, I have a feeling that side order is the close for 8, we might even have 2 dlcs side order and I hope one for 4, who would side with mr grizz. Only a theory but you never know.
honestly grizz and 4 would make a cool duo, and (spoiler warning for splatoon 3)
Mr grizz in the alterna logs has been lonely for tens of thousands of years, and four is lonely, too, so in that way, yes they clash. It’s also canon that grizz is still alive (in the credits scene after beating alterna he’s floating around earth) so it is within the realm of possibility of four saving & helping him. I think it’d be such an amazing idea, or just villain 4 in general, being the first agent (not counting sanitized 3 or brainwashed 1 (Callie) as they were controlled) to truly be evil on their own will. I just think villain 4 would be an amazing addition to splatoon 3
Hello!
Decided to write something because of this. Apologies for any poor writing, I wrote this at 12:00 am lol.
In the bustling city of Inkopolis the New Squidbeak Splatoon makes their way to Cuttlefish's old cabin.
Captain, "Haven't been here since me and Cuttlefish's little 'vacation'."
Neo Agent 3, "So is this going to be a trip down memory lane, or are we actually seeing the cabin?"
Agent 8, "Should still be there. Marie stationed someone there I think."
Marie, "Yeah I did... Agent 4..."
Agent 8, "Oh right! Haven't seen her in a while. I wonder how she is."
Marie, "She's probably fine..."
They enter the grating that leads to Octo Canyon. Unlike what they thought would be there, all they discover is a deserted cabin. The targets used for testing weaponry have been deflated. The TV unplugged. The snow globe that once contained Octavio broken (yet again). The power eggs, and sardinium, missing from the cabin. Even the upgrade bench has been stolen. The gates blocking off access to further areas have been reconstructed.
Captain, "So much for the garrison! Look at this place! Its a disgrace!"
Agent 8, "Did something happen? There doesn't look to be a struggle. However, wouldn't that mean that Agent 4-"
Callie from inside the cabin, "Hey the glasses are missing!"
Marie, "Don't tell me she took it."
Callie, "Seems like it. Shame, I liked those shades."
Captain, "Well we gotta hunt her down then I guess. Of course the bigshot couldn't keep up with pressure I guess. Typical. Bet she didn't even try to contact us."
Marie, "She did."
Captain, "What?"
Marie, "She kept on texting me asking for validation about her job, and I figured she just needed to learn how to do it herself. In hindsight I guess that wasn't the greatest move."
Captain, "Where do you suppose she went?"
Marie, "Likely down to the bottom of the Canyon. That is if she put on the shades."
Captain, "Then that's where we're heading."
Agents 3, 8, along with the Captain head from the cabin to various kettles.
Meanwhile down in the bottom of the Canyon, Agent 4 is standing in front of various Octolings. Wearing her old hero suit, and wielding her Heroshot. The hypnotic shades rest almost perfectly on her face, changing between various different patterns and lights.
Agent 4, "I'm glad that you all have entrusted me to such a task of keeping these outposts operational. It means the world to me... You all in particular have been chosen for your own prowess. Whether that be with a Octoshot, or with a computer, all of you will be apart of the most elite squad in this Canyon. Something to rival The New Squidbeak Splatoon. What better way of defeating them, than with their own playbook?"
I need the complete version of this animation, the animatic is already incredible, the full version would be even more!
My headcannon, she simply left on her own and went back to school. With how smart she is, she probably even planned to go to college.
this was more of an emotional rolercoaster than I expected... GG's dude 😭
late but its sad how
agent 4 one of the best ones , having so much weapons choices , a cool suit n all
4 is legit a middle child and one of my favorites
4 needs a appearance once in at least once of the expansion pass. The animation made me cry
If this doesn’t happen in side order I’m suing Nintendo
did you do it
As cool as intensifying harmony is in side order, it absolutely robbed agent 4.
This animation is amazing and the fact that four puts on theglasses at the end its a act of oblivion
I jokingly said one time that they killed Eight and Four off-screen to explain them having no mentions in Splatoon 3. Now with no traces of Four in Side Order so far it's actually seeming likely.
You had NO REASON TO MAKE THIS/J BUT ITS STILL SO SAD!!!
Amazing animatic, you did an awesome job making it!!!
thanks!! my reason is clear; ANGST!!!
Why am I crying
Marie! How could you!?
guys- uh, i think I figured out what happened to agent 4.. and it’s canon..
side order website said that the residents of inkopolis square went missing.. that also means agent 4.
Oh dang. Hopefully 4 is okay, then.
I cannot remember how many times ive listened to this also this video was my main inspiration for agent 7 who is a huge character in my DR
Thank you so much for making this
Agent 4 didn't have a big role in Side Order (missed opportunity considering that mysterious locker door in the middle of the lockers that doesn't have a use, it could have unlocked a battle similar to Inner Agent 3 but for Agent 4), but at least we know that Nintendo at the very least remembers Agent 4's existence, and they may get a bigger role at some point.
This is so sad 😢 but we need a part 2 and you should need to use other friends as the song in that background for it
SO TRUE
Agent 4 does not deserve them. The squidbeak treated her like sh#t
I need more of Villain Agent 4
I'm honestly to the point of crying. THIS IS SO GOOD!!
My three little hearts hurt so much and bleed for Agent 4 after watching this 🥺🥺🥺
I would really love to see evil 4 as the main villain for the Side Order DLC :DD
I made an entire theory on why this might be true! :D
I Appearantly can't post the tumblr link in a comment Section, but I did post it on my community page a day ago, if you wanna check it out!
@@Aruna_Shadows that’s really cool!!! Thank you!!
@@Sunny_Shine__ Sure!^^ I hope you'll like the theory!
1:45 so many people relate to this, like me. when ur not someone's favorite person, they arnt gonna be interested in talkin sometimes :/
=<
I swear, if Agent 4 doesn’t appear on Splatoon 4, I will burst into tears.
I wish they would make agent 4 have a villain arc like this
Agent four was actually confirm that still helping when Octavio try’s to get Callie in multiple times
It seems like this was intentional.. When Marie left, her face seemed like she knew she was leaving 4 behind. She didn’t just forget, she abandoned 4….
I love all the agent girls especially agent 4.
🥺 its amazing just wonderful
I kind of want a part 2 to this.
*sobbing *
Ive watched this like 10 times and I cry harder each time and i think i read all the comments. I also have comment like 3 times witch is more then any video i have
Yeah late ik but leading up to splatoon 3 Nintendo made a map of the world of splatoon 1,2&3 with Agents 4's house labled on the map and only fours house sure it's entirely possible that the other playable agents just live in Inkopolis/splatlands locations like Flounder heights or the main hub area in 3 but they would probably atleast make a little note of "Agent 8 lives here" or something like that.
just seeing four being mentioned by nintendo gives me hope she appears for Side Order it's not a lot but still there.
(Also the main reason I said playable agents is because Pearl's mansion she's what agent 5? 6? One of them anyway is labled on the map, although it is a pretty big property so it'd be weird if they didn't label it)
OH I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS... POOR BABY :(
There agent 4/marina kidnapped theories and agent 7 flashbacks
NOOO my heart can't handle this 😭😭😭
Finally I found someone who likes the Splatoon 2 storyboard after years of searching! :D
Oof first time i cried after gramps almost died
This so good I gasped when I was the hypnoshades maybe this could get a sequel if you want to make it
I would love to see a follow up
Im legit so sad because agent 4 is my favourite of all of them and hes always just…left out (mines a boy so he/him heiendn)
if 4 isnt in side order im gonna break my switch (funfact:the first splatoon game i got was splatoon 2 so yea my fav agent always has been 4 :3)
Same😢
Next splatoon will have 4 as the main villain, we just have to force Nintendo to bend
This makes me think of how in Side Order, Agent 4 was brought in as a security system. Marina has 0 personal connection to the Squidbeak Splatoon so I like to think that Cuttlefish recommended 4 to her. I also like to think that the reason why they're not seen in splat3 's story mode is because 4 was already in the simulation working with Marina at the time. That leads into me believing the 4=Parallel Canon theory, and headcanon that 4 was Order's first target for greyscaling.
I literally have the exact same theory, great minds think alike I guess 😂
Smollusk would have probably needed to get past 4 to take control of the Memverse which is why I (agree and) think she was the first to fall victim to Grayscaling.
4 and 8 also seem to be pretty close in the official art (for example, the one Tower Records art that has everyone thinking they're roommates) so 8 may have also had an influence on Marina's choice.
Or she was just the only agent available, but it's nicer to think that she was chosen for it. Because it does seem that was based on what little we got.
@@RaychAgent4EVa Exactly! And a sadder part of this theory mean that there's a high chance that 4's greyscaling is either hard to reverse or outright impossible due to long-term exposure :(
@@snowbirdbaby9808 My theory on that is a bit different- 4's character looks and behaves slightly differently than the other members of Parallel Canon during the bossfight (can use Triple Splashdown, hair shows and actually has a yellow tint at the tips, mask isn't connected to her face and she drops it when splatted) so I think she can be saved. The other, "weaker" Inklings may be too far gone however judging by their generic appearance.
This is 98% headcanon but I think the difference between 4 and the other PC members is due to Smollusk wanting to keep some element of 4's self within her, because without her self she'd be far less powerful.
Smollusk admires her strength (source: Palette), albeit her less orderly qualities, and it would want that to remain. I really think there was supposed to be some finale to those hints I mentioned, but it likely just got scrapped for one reason or another and I'm ticked about it.
@@RaychAgent4EVa ooo that's a great theory! My headcanon for parallel canon is that the other Inklings shown are actually weak AI copies that 4 had access to as a part of their position. Honestly Side Order has inspired me to perhaps make a comic surrounding how I view the agents so these discussions help me smooth my thoughts out.
@@snowbirdbaby9808 I think the copies idea makes the most sense (and also explains the difference between "4" and the rest), and I'm stuck between believing that and my Inklings headcanon. It makes more sense for the identical Parallels with no face, just a metal head, to be copies who don't exist in the real world which is why they and 4 look so different. But if they aren't the Inklings that got pulled into the Memverse through their sea-cucumber phones, then where are they? (Maybe they're those weird creatures wandering around the Square??)
All I know is that the middle one is definitely Four since she's so distinct from the others, I guess we'll have to wait for Nintendo to say something to find out what is or isn't true about PC. I'd even take an explanation via manga if I got it, since they just started their Side Order arc. The manga may not be a reliable canon source (more of a "Parallel" Canon, I'm here all night folks) but it is closer than headcanons and would work as a placeholder until Nintendo says something about it in an art book or dev interview.
Side note- in reference to your long-term exposure concern, I just realized that if the tips of 4's tentacles are still yellow then she's probably not fully grayscaled yet. Even if Smollusk did intend to fully Grayscale her (irreversibly) I think I remember one of the characters saying it was a slow process so there may be time.
WE NEEED ANOTHER PART BUT WITH OTHER FRIENDS
Crying my eyes out, thanks 😢
I was squishing that for 100% side order you can go into octo Canyon and see agent 4
BRO YOU GOTTA A PART TWO AM WAS CRYING IN TEARS
we are all our own agent 4, right?
seizing i literally wish agent 4 came back in 3 maybe as a cute little goofy private or something, like the annoying little sibling that absolutely sucks up to and is the number one hypeman to agent 3's cool older sibling with the whole YEAH YEAH THE BOSS??? THEYRE AWESOME. I KNOW MAN I GOT TO SEE THAT FIRSTHAND, FIRSTHAND FRESHNESS. YOU WISH YOU WERE ME. i wish. every day i wish 4 was here.'
OH MY HEART ;_; I love agent 4 so much, nintendo im begging of you please at least let us know if agent 4 is still alive
Agent 4 deserved better than being a puppet and being controlled by order even Callie , Marie, Cuttlefish, and even the Captain and 8 forgot about them ( them cuz people pick different genders for their characters)
