  • For the billionth time, i don't want mr. grizz to be a bear from outer space.... starting to feel a glimmer of hope that wont happen!

    -"hashira" translates to pillar, not tower. forgot to double check before recording, whoops!
    -at 5:08 the sound here is the same as one of the tower control themes (which makes sense considering that the boss salmonid is also a tower!). thanks roachgore for pointing that out to me :]

    I totally believe the new Grizzco office being in a laundromat is a reference to money laundering. This guy essentially makes his money off of private military contractors committing war crimes on his behalf; he's definitely laundering that money.

    I feel like Splatoon is in a really weird position where they could tell an interesting story about how no party is truly good and everyone's motives are morally grey. But at the same time this is a Nintendo game.
    Edit: My point is while there are a lot of dark and heavy themes in Splatoon, they are rarely explored outside of vague lore statements. Usually the main plot stays pretty light. An example is how DJ Octavio is an insane tyrant, but this is barely addressed and he's portrayed as a goofy pun-slinging DJ. Now of course Octo Expansion stands in stark contrast to that with its heavy dark events. But the actual primary theme of racism is only lightly touched on in some Captain Cuttlefish lines and mem cakes. Because of this I have doubt that Nintendo would make a theme of no one being truly good or bad (or any other heavy theme) prevalent in the story.
    This would reflect games like Zelda and Kirby where, while the events are dark, the themes aren't really prevalent. (Majora's Mask is over 20 years old now so I don't think it works as a good example since it doesn't represent the current direction of Nintendo's writing.)

    I think that the Salmonoids might have salvaged technology from the NIHLs statue, which is how some of these new bosses have unique technology, and how they made their own version of the Blender melody.

    I noticed that nobody is talking about the differences between little buddy and the salmonids in Splatoon 3. Salmon in real life have different looks for their spawning phases, and the salmonids in both Splatoon 2 & 3 appear to be in said spawning phases but little buddy isn’t. Also salmon runs only happen every 70 years, but it’s *still* happening in Splatoon 3. Something might be causing this unnatural behavior in the salmonids that we might look into in Splatoon 3.

Maybe they're going longer now because inklings are going in to actively take eggs, or maybe the waves have diminished in power because of these thinnings.

      What if the 70 year spawning period isn't actually in session, and Grizz is artificially inducing it to have an excuse for invading their territory, killing the defenders, and stealing their babies? Inklings don't question it because they don't question anything; they're a hedonist society. I really hope for a story that criticizes Inkling society because it's so backward. They think the Octarians are extinct when they just live far away, and they don't give af about genocide on another species that is protected by law. Inklings become addicted to the work, and no one cares?! Idk just a ramble

    Hey rassicas, I have no clue if you’ve been blown up by it already or already aware but didn’t include it in the video, the new song and the blender song aren’t the only songs that have the same melody, the towers from the octo expansion levels on tower control uses the same melody, this most definitely proves that this is a kamabo co (pure conjecture) melody and probably signifys that maybe the salmonids are (or were) working with kamabo co, for sure this has to tie in with the lore of the single player.

    Its a small thing, But the Flipper-Flopper really reminded me of one of the splatoon1 bosses, Where the boss would be within ink, and would appear, in a circle, around you. That circle would be filled with enemy ink and you'd have to escape. I don't remember the name at the moment though

    Tbh the first thing I thought of when I saw the King Salmon was "deep sea predator". Lots of deep sea fish are huge, bulky, and sneaky, and often have those bulging, blank eyes like we see in the trailer. That, and chains are usually used for an abyss look, and the greyscale camera we see used has the same quality as cameras used to observe marine life in the lower parts of the ocean.
    My biggest question is why would there be a deep sea salmon, if what I'm thinking is right

    A bit late to this, but the Mr. Grizz from Splatoon 2 could potentially not be the same Mr. Grizz from Splatoon 3, if that makes sense. Like Grizzco is under new management or something. Would definitely help explain why Grizzco still exists yet it is hinted that Grizz will be a major villain

    As much as I don't want them, salmonlings still make sense as an idea, I mean, the octarian race is a vast one that is sentient, and yet octolings still exist.

Either way, great video and I wish I could like the video twice.

    i know this is a bit late but i noticed something that points more towards the person/people behind mr grizz being someone who’s part of inkling society/culture. you mentioned in your video about mammals being extinct that the inklings somewhat view the sea in a religious lens, and in both mr grizz’s dialogue for salmon run shifts (specifically the dialogue for 100+ eggs where they say something along the lines of “you have been blessed by the sea’s bounty!”) and their final splatfest dialogue where mr grizz is written saying that they believe the sea answers all questions and generally views the sea as more important than the conflicts of the inkling society, that could suggest that the person/people behind mr grizz might view the sea in a religious way like inklings, so they could be inkling-affiliated beings or, at the very least, not tartar again because i’m guessing with how much distain tartar has for inkling/octoling culture he wouldn’t have a religious view of the sea.
