    I know I said this month would be Fairy Month, but before we get into that I wanted to post this Splatoon video since it’s also the month of the Final Splatfest!
    So… sorry? I guess? You could consider Inklings fae creatures I suppose.

      Cutecute Cupcakes that’s my thought too. The octolings were experiments by DJ Octavio to combat the Inklings morphology itself. But they were young and impressionable. So the hypnoglasses were to control them. Then the first game’s finale happened, and that started to break apart. A song of hope was seared into their minds and hearts. Marina was just the first to emerge, and did so publicly. Pearl immediately jumped in to stop her getting attacked, and slowly she was accepted.

    I think Marina is also turquoise October, the person who made all the music in hero mode because she loves music, her main ink color is turquoise, and sometimes when pearl and her are doing the news pearl will ask Marina what her favorite month is Marina will ask her if she is just making an octopus joke because octo is in October. If that actually is her favorite month it would make sense that the octarans would know her as the artist turquoise October. They also might not know she’s on the side of inkopilis which would explain why she has access to octaran caves and all the materials she needs to make the stages for splatfest, she’s a popular artist and they don’t know she’s not on their side anymore.

  • @theblooper9631
    @theblooper9631 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    About Marina's eyes, My guess is that she's still an octoling, just a different subspecies. My guess is that before the octolings lived underground together, there where two groups, and one had more environmental pressure to evolve a different shape of pupils. Since there aren't really any land animals with pupils shaped like that, I'm going to guess that Marina can't see as well as say, agent 8. My guess as to why Agent 8's ancestors evolved these rounded eyes where Marina's ancestors didn't, is simply that Agent 8's ancestors needed them more. Perhaps it could be due to the lighting, other animals, geography, plants, what weapons they used, or perhaps one was mainly nocturnal while the other was diurnal. Whatever it was, SOMETHING put pressure on one group to evolve new pupils, while the other stayed the same as their octopus ancestors. My guess is that the round pupils are a more dominant trait, meanwhile the dumbell shaped ones are more recessive, which is why you don't see many octolings with eyes like Marina's.

    Simple answer: her eyes and hair are a genetic mutation. And she may even be stronger and smarter than most other Octolings because of the mutation, which we can grasp from her file shown in the chat logs of Octo Expansion. It’s completely feasible that she simply had a genetic mutation that made her different from other Octolings.

      @Domiyu Backup Fairy is a pretty innocuous euphemism, it's fine. Kinda plays into the sparkles, rainbows, and unicorns vibe we got going.

    The only problem is inklings have a band in between their eyes representing the evolution from one eye. Cuttle fish have allways had two eyes

    Couple things, one: if you go to Maritime Memory Splatoon 1 amiibo thing, the front of their trucks have their squid forms. Two: Captain Cuttlefish is only ever referred to as Cuttlefish in translations, in the original versions, his name means “dried squid.” Three: Cuttlefish at the end of 3 literally turns into a squid. Four: the players and stuff in 3 have the other color at the end.

    It also wouldn't be too much of a stretch to imagine, that Callie and Marie are of both squid and cuttlefish descent. Of course there's no evidence to back this up, but it's a possibility

      Actually, there is evidence. Cap'n Cuttlefish is their grandfather.

      @@dmdmd2548 I mean, yes, I know.
      What I'm saying is we don't have any prove, that they have squid-parts in their lineage, if we take the conclusion of the video at face-value.

      Nah it is a very big stretch because there far to simaler to inklings and that squids and cuttlefish are an entirely different species of animal and can’t crossbreed with squids

    Now that they're cuttlefish and all I'd better be seeing some of that Cuttlefish stealth and Hypnosis come into play...

    But why would the Cuttlelings hide? Why would they NEED to hide?

    I’m pretty sure Inkling’s teeth are the beak of their squid forms. Also the shoulder blades could just be structural support made by their bodys.
