I’m highly pleased to hear about region locking no longer being a thing. It’s already bad enough that those without the Marie and Callie amiibo cannot get the gear associated with them, but seeing as nameplates are now a thing, it could have devolved out of control if region exclusive stuff was still a thing.
You can actually get the gear still without having the Amiibo's. People have uploaded the RFID chip information for all amiibos and uploaded it to the internet. If you wanted, you could purchase RFID cards and I think there's a mobile app you can use to transfer the data onto the cards which then allows you to use them in game (there's many video tutorials on how to do it). Still a shame that people can't have the figurines though.
Just wanted to mention, there actually ARE symbiotic relationships employed by hermit crabs. Sometimes anemones are seen sticking on the hermit crab’s shell, providing the hermit crab with stinging protection while also hitching an easy ride. Considering Annie I don’t think they’ll go this route, but it popped into my mind regardless. I think a sea pangolin would be pretty dang cool for the headgear shopkeeper myself, they’re deepsea snails with a scaly foot and shells made of iron. Like certain other creatures that chill near hydrothermal vents, they actually have a symbiotic relationship with specific bacteria! The bacteria chills inside them and provides the energy they need to survive, to the point where it’s likely that they… sea pangolin actually don’t even eat. Maybe when you buy something, the bacteria kinda seeps out of the shell to leave snide remarks? Or maybe the dynamic’s reversed, where the shopkeeper tends to come off as more aggressive than they mean to and the bacterium guy inside is timid and apologetic. I’m REALLY hoping for some deepsea influences in this game, so something like that would be great! Just give us a Spartan warrior Pompeii worm or something and this’ll be a perfect game. …Also buff Ink Mine to be insta-kill again.
How the hell did the Japanese developers make several languages that directly translate to English? They did this with breath of the wild too. Arms probably has it as well if anyone were to care
if they dont call it a shellphone. someone at Nintendo is going to go missing Edit: News report in: Random child murders 3 innocent Nintendo workers and their families because of the name of splatoon 3 item being bad.
@@theglasswolf3206fr "sea cucumber phone" is such a mouthful so people will just call them phones i guess. maybe its cause the jp name is something and they translated directly but i wouldn't know
It also appears that we have teeth customization! (at least for octolings) Some of them have 3 teeth (like inklings) while others have 2 (the asymmetrical design they have in splatoon 2) this can be seen at 5:50 where the octoling on the left has a visible bottom tooth in the middle while the one on the right does not
ah yeah i remember seeing posts about teeth customization... I think its just a developer oversight. twitter.com/rassicas/status/1518149812360663040?s=20&t=TIW73dUOt4WiIhRpSyjfkQ
what if the judd kidnapping idea actually is possible? Like how the zapfish doesn't appear in your plaza until you steal it back.. So what if one of the judds don't show up in your online battles or hub until you save them. Which wouldn't be impossible since we only had 1 judd in the first splatoon so all they'd have to do is take that same animation and reuse it.
Oooooh I kinda see this working out: octarians kidnapping Judd or Lil Judd to know what mammals are to become like them and take over the land once governed by mammals. (sorry for my poor choice of words here, I'm not quite sure how to explain it better, English is not my first language, lol)
yeahh that's what I was thinking! I feel like the creators wouldn't reveal that he's missing in the trailer because it would give too much away. But the fuzzy hair is a good indicator that something's gone on
Adding on to the Portuguese man o' war, the tentacles can extend as long as 30m and are extremely dangerous as the venom ejects upon contact, releasing into blood circuits in nanoseconds and causing paralysis. I'd be surprised if a man o' war becomes a shopkeeper. Maybe we'll see a hydra since they both share the same class taxonomy.
Splatoon 3 has been fun so far. And in Splatoon 2 octo expansion they made a giant isopod not look terrifying, and in Splatoon 3 they made a coconut not give me nightmares. Very impressive
Man-o-war we call them Blue bottles in Australia. They wash up on the beach and people step on them or brush past them in the water and get a painful sting
Maybe the reason that we have a set few weapons in Salmon Run was so Sheldon could gather information about the weapons, like in the Splatoon 2 Storymode where he forces you to use specific weapons in different levels?
My theory for what's up w little judd is that he's grown into his kitten fuzz phase. In splatoon 2 he would have just-born buzz, here he has kitten fuzz, and later down the line he'll smooth out to be like judd's level of fluff. Thats just my take though lol.
I look forward to your videos like no other channel (aside from SRB2 for his more gameplay aspect)!! So happy to see more videos on this channel because I will take any I can get with how much effort you put into your videos! 💛💛
"They've been DRIP feeding us information about gear and weapons." I highly doubt this was intentional, but they certainly have been giving us that drip. I mean, Purple Octo Girl is all over my Instagram feed recently.
The thing about man-o-wars is that they are not a creature, they are a COLONY of creatures of the same species, doing diferent roles, the tentacles are one, the puffy floaties another, the wind sail looking bit is another and so on, imagine the hive mind thing of the splatoon jellyfish, but as a singular character That would be a man-o-war to a tee
The hat shop keeper could be a sea snail with a anemone. some snails will put anemones on their shells for defense, also the anemone looks a bit like a top hat when on the shell
I hate the idea of Splatsville Street, but it could lead to something. Street is a synonym for Avenue or Boulevard. Boulevard in particular is defined as a wide street in a town or city, typically one lined with trees. The hub is big, has palm tree,s and has streets blocked off by barriers and such. So, my theory for the name of the Splat 3 hub is Splatsville Boulevard.
man-o-war is actually a collection of individual organisms operating together as a single organism, to the point where most of them couldn't perform many basic functions without the colony they're connected to. i kinda doubt they'll do anything particular with that, but it would be cool to see if they incorporated that comprehensibly in the design somehow.
Great video! It's amazing that the languages in Splatoon are being deciphered. It used to just seem like made up symbols that somewhat resemble real words. I remember thinking that it would be very odd if it really can't be deciphered, since the most of the writing in the Zelda games has been deciphered.
I'm thinking little Judd may be an experiment by...Someone to see if it would be possible to make more mammals. A Jurassic Park situation, if you will. They were successful with the creation of a new cat, next could be to try and integrate it with inkling/octoling dna, but things seem to have gone wrong somehow.
My theory is currently that the fuzzy ink is connected to Lil Judd but he isn't the evil mastermind- more like its a consequence of his creation that could've gotten abused by the Octarians or some other 3rd entity? For example if Octavio is evil still he used the cloning technology in Judd's capsule to try to beef up Octarians so that Inkling Ink couldn't take them out? IDK i could probably craft it a little better if i did a proper deep dive but i dont have the energy
Ok so having a real bear as the villain would be obvious and a little lame but what about this. The villain may be someone who did a mammal related experiment on themselves but is having trouble with the process and is testing it out on Octarians to perfect the process. This way we have a bear for the big bad but we also don’t have a bear as big bad.
3:07 I think left-handedness would be a cool new customization addition (glad to see someone other than me noticed it), but with the inkling being right-handed, it’s not looking good for that theory.
It would change which direction you could peak around walls, so an organized team could tactically make some members who are usually on the right side of the map left handed. That seems like a hassle to do every match, and give an even bigger advantage to well organized teams. I don’t think it’s a good idea.
It could either be these 1. Left handedness hasn’t fully been implemented 2. You get the title for switching your dominant hand, but can switch it back which is what our southpaw champ did
Or the left handed title is just there for the irl lefties. Though I have no idea how such an achievement would be made in a game like this. Wait aren't the sub weapons thrown with the left hand? Maybe the achievement would be unlocked after throwing a certain amount of subs throughout matches? Wait I just saw they still thrown right handed in this game.. Hmm then how is a left handed achievement going to be unlocked lol
@@AshenDust_ I think it would add to the gameplay experience, similar to the squid roll, giving folks more options during battles, but that’s just my opinion.
My theory is that the main story mode will focus on obviously the return of the mammalian and maybe something bigger but we might get a dlc about grizzco and mr grizz. I think that would be pretty cool!
Phenomenal video! I really appreciate these videos. Seeing you bring your lore expertise into very obscure details is so awesome! I never noticed the Ralph Lauren Bear parody until you mentioned it! So many cool details with massive backstories. Great work breaking all of it down.
14:28 Imagine Sheldon reverse engineering human-era military helicopters and selling them to Grizzco It sounds like meme material but pretty plausable at the same time
I have wanted a coastal city in Splatoon for so long! Seeing those palm trees was one of the most exciting things ever Also, I'm calling it now that Agent Four will be somewhat involved with either the story mode or Next Wave
Hear me out, sheldon is Mr Grizz. From every theiry you’ve made it makes the most sense. Sheldon was neutral on chaos vs order much like grizz, and sheldon already had a hustory of highly modified weapons such as the entire hero set. Sheldon might be using grizzco as a way to fund his weapon business or to help make further technological breakthroughs. We collect power eggs and sardines to upgrade the hero weapons anyways
@@justblazey_sp We don’t really know if he would have evil motives or not, if anything this could be both a way to improve his technological advances and nullify the octarian army. This mogjt be a case of “necessary evil” but we should not rule out the idea of sheldon being mr grizz especially with all the signs that point more towards him that any other character
one thing btw, the JP exclusive gear IS possible to obtain through save file editing for overseas copies, but may result in a ban, ive only tried this offline and on an emulator
For the spiral shell, while I'm not sure whether they too have a symbiotic relationship of sorts, maybe a spirula spirula (ram horn squid) is a possibility? Despite the name, they're actually a completely unique species of mollusk! Known most famously for their spiral shell :0 Most likely it's a nautillus or snail of some kind, but I just thought I'd put the idea forward! Unlikely, but hey, it's a thought :D
I appreciate the more QOL and minor additions that separates the game from 2, My main problem is that it's on the same console; and I think the Splatoon devs know thats a big problem for sequels. Hope there's a bonus for ppl who've played the 2nd one, or profile transfer? maybe not that, but some kind of goody and an in-depth direct segment on more changes before release would reel in existing fans and hopefully new ones, as having this game be approachable for anyone despite being the 3rd installment would get new ppl who turned it down before to consider it.
Well the things I hope that can be transferable to Splatoon 3 is Amiibo gear. I would be so hyped if the Pearlescent Kicks would return, those are my favourite shoes to use in game ^^ . Oh and it would be cool if people who have Splatoon2 could transfer their ability chunks to Splatoon 3 for the same abilities who are still in use in 3, probably sounds like a hellish idea for casual players and comps would abuse it..
@@iris1568 yeah I had that thought about clothing or chunk transfer. Maybe just weapon transfers, or have discounts in the weapon shop for ppl with splatoon2
You get a free exclusive outfit with a new weapon reskin which changes depending on whether you bought Splatoon 2 physically or digitally, and if you have both, you get both.
Something to point out is that inklings/octolings have new voice clips, if you listen closely when they activate their specials, and when they're splatted
Ty for telling everyone stuff about Splatoon 3 I don't have Twitter and you're one of the few people that actually tell people about in depth ideas and lore! Ty!!🦑❤️🎮
12:41 Wait, so that means the little octarian that took a more anthropomorphic form from a tentacle actually makes sense, as DJ Octavio's tentacle clone took the shape of the octo samurai without looking like an octoling!
What if little Judd actually did get kidnapped and was replaced by another clone of Judd who just seems to grow differently ( fuzzier hair, brownish color)? Maybe he is a clone of the clone? That might explain why he looks so different :oc I remember my teach talking about clones missing certain dna informations when they get cloned again, same goes with i.e. simple paper copies. If you copy another copy for a while, it loses it's sharpness and color
You know, last year there was a text that Pearl and Marina say in turf war. If the sages are revealed to be Snapped Canal and Manta Maria, Pearl and Marina will say: "I think they should rename Inkopolis to Cephalopolis." "Cephalopolis? I like it. Let's start a campaign!" And I thought that would be the name of the Splatoon 3 Inkopolis. What a fool I was...
I want to point out something at 7:44 In their Twitter or tumbler page IDK which one had it they said " this splatsvile youth " not inkling or octoling. Since we know that octolings are now playable in the next game then is it possible that the new agent 3 could be an octoling? I don't really know because we only see NA(new agent) 3 as a inkling but not as an octoling so I'm not really sure:/
It would be cool if instead of stealling the great zapfish the octarians steal little judd - he would only show up on the results when you beat story mode
This is just a thought, but I bet the Clothing shop's owner is a Man-o'-war, because the name but also it lines up with Jelonzo and Jelfonzo being jellyfish (man-o'-war are jellyfish)
I just realized that a picture of flounder heights is in the single/hero mode trailer. Maybe they're bringing it back also if you look in the corner of the pic you can actually see it is the exact picture because there is orange ink (just black and white instead)
I think a prequel splatoon game would be really interesting, maybe set in the Great turf war. The player could play as Cpt Cuttlefish or someone else. It would give a lot of insight into the lore of splatoon.
Small detail I noticed in regards to the sticky notes at 9:07, if you flip the image upside down and look at the symbol again. It looks like Dedf1sh's hat! Perhaps we might be seeing more of Ahato in the third game or hear more of her music.
Even though my theory that Sheldon is actually Mr. Grizz is now debunked you did make some of the same connections that I did with some of your questions and findings in this video. And also added stuff to it, again despite it being debunked.
Like the new perspective :) 10:34 Maybe their "hats", which are the shells, are alive and the owner has like a split personality between treating like indenspensible pieces of property when they are upset and treasuring them like friends when they are happy. Or heck, maybe they are just delusional and think their hats are actual people, sometimes they break through this delusion when they are upset and just drop the entire "act" and they pick it back up when they are glad. This could tie into a symbiotic relationship with their hats, family, and friends as the shop owner is constantly annoyed or sometimes even joyful over the fact that everyone, even the hats themselves sometimes, are worried over the fact that they believe their own hats are alive. Could be an interesting little thing. 13:23 Let's GOOOOOO! That's what I wanted to see!
this isn’t really related to the video,(more to the direct coming soon) but i think that we’ll get some splatoon 3 news like, more on salmon run, alterna, and the new mechanics, BUT ALSO, maybe we get a global test fire, it seems appropriate because they usually release a test fire about 3-4 months before release, so i think after in the direct they’ll announce it in the splatoon segment, so fingers crossed!
13:46 I think the Ammo Knights logo is just here because this part of the site is themed after a newspaper ad, like you found the job advertisement for GrizzCo inside some newspaper alongside ads for things like Ammo Knights.
I really hope that the title things are able to be typed, like the things in acnh that you type with your passport instead of the titles that you unlock
Man-'o-wardrobe regular actually gives a lot to be extrapolated upon. There's a jellyfish known as the Portuguese Man o' war, and then that can be mixed with wardrobe to make the name of this game's clothing shop which is backed up by the use of regular. Actually looking at pictures of Man o' wars they do seem pretty distinct from the jellyfish we've had in the games thus far, so I don't think this shop's owner will be related to Jelonzo or Jelfonzo. But another thing I'm noticing is the ridge on the top of these jellyfish that seems way too perfectly shaped and located not to give a cartoon counterpart one meant to represent a mohawk.
Sacculina/crabgirl* would be a funny symbiotic** relationship to have represented. It will probably never happen, but Birdetta and Vivian did, so... *and it would _have_ to be a girl because of what Sacculina does **parasitism is considered a subcategory of symbiosis Also, a Man-o'-War is a colony organism, which could lead to interesting character design.
I honestly like the splatoon 2 colour tips more than the splat 1/3 ones. The other ones look kinda dirty for some reason, it'd be better if they were at least the same saturation as the main tentacle color.
Considering the last clothes shop owner was a jellyfish and the man’o’war (bluebottle here in Australia) is so closely related, I feel like it’s almost guaranteed that the new clothes shop owner will be a Bluebottle Jelly
ill see you next t
NEXT T WHAT???? NEXT T WHAT?????????
Just a couple more months of waiting. I can do it.
this post gives off "Marina, whatever you do, don't eat th" vibes

hi charq

How the hell did the Japanese developers make several languages that directly translate to English? They did this with breath of the wild too. Arms probably has it as well if anyone were to care

Hear me out, sheldon is Mr Grizz. From every theiry you’ve made it makes the most sense. Sheldon was neutral on chaos vs order much like grizz, and sheldon already had a hustory of highly modified weapons such as the entire hero set. Sheldon might be using grizzco as a way to fund his weapon business or to help make further technological breakthroughs. We collect power eggs and sardines to upgrade the hero weapons anyways
Nah Sheldon wouldn’t do stuff like that
@@justblazey_sp We don’t really know if he would have evil motives or not, if anything this could be both a way to improve his technological advances and nullify the octarian army. This mogjt be a case of “necessary evil” but we should not rule out the idea of sheldon being mr grizz especially with all the signs that point more towards him that any other character
@@aumiist well considering he helped in splat 1 and 2 he prob is nice
one thing btw, the JP exclusive gear IS possible to obtain through save file editing for overseas copies, but may result in a ban, ive only tried this offline and on an emulator
For the spiral shell, while I'm not sure whether they too have a symbiotic relationship of sorts, maybe a spirula spirula (ram horn squid) is a possibility? Despite the name, they're actually a completely unique species of mollusk! Known most famously for their spiral shell :0
Most likely it's a nautillus or snail of some kind, but I just thought I'd put the idea forward! Unlikely, but hey, it's a thought :D
I appreciate the more QOL and minor additions that separates the game from 2, My main problem is that it's on the same console; and I think the Splatoon devs know thats a big problem for sequels. Hope there's a bonus for ppl who've played the 2nd one, or profile transfer? maybe not that, but some kind of goody and an in-depth direct segment on more changes before release would reel in existing fans and hopefully new ones, as having this game be approachable for anyone despite being the 3rd installment would get new ppl who turned it down before to consider it.
only thing im worried about is the marketing
Well the things I hope that can be transferable to Splatoon 3 is Amiibo gear. I would be so hyped if the Pearlescent Kicks would return, those are my favourite shoes to use in game ^^ . Oh and it would be cool if people who have Splatoon2 could transfer their ability chunks to Splatoon 3 for the same abilities who are still in use in 3, probably sounds like a hellish idea for casual players and comps would abuse it..
@@iris1568 yeah I had that thought about clothing or chunk transfer. Maybe just weapon transfers, or have discounts in the weapon shop for ppl with splatoon2
@@migweegwee2824 Yeah that would be nice
You get a free exclusive outfit with a new weapon reskin which changes depending on whether you bought Splatoon 2 physically or digitally, and if you have both, you get both.
13:23 i was lowkey- no, HIGH KEY thinking that we were gonna use a cellphone instead of a big tv billboard thingy
totally predicted 10000%
Something to point out is that inklings/octolings have new voice clips, if you listen closely when they activate their specials, and when they're splatted
9:23 in hindsight... it's nice to see the clothing brands before seing the store owners
Adding to the cellphone theory, there are also hidden qr code-like designs in some of the ui.
11:03 this means with enough work we might be able to completely decipher the written inkling language.
Ty for telling everyone stuff about Splatoon 3 I don't have Twitter and you're one of the few people that actually tell people about in depth ideas and lore! Ty!!🦑❤️🎮
Thanks for the analysis, glad the splatoon community is still this active!
12:41
Wait, so that means the little octarian that took a more anthropomorphic form from a tentacle actually makes sense, as DJ Octavio's tentacle clone took the shape of the octo samurai without looking like an octoling!
Pretty sure Octavio's clone-thing is in the roller/motorbike/respawn thing.
5:04 I just can’t wait to not have to switch to a girl to use long hair
What if little Judd actually did get kidnapped and was replaced by another clone of Judd who just seems to grow differently ( fuzzier hair, brownish color)? Maybe he is a clone of the clone? That might explain why he looks so different :oc
I remember my teach talking about clones missing certain dna informations when they get cloned again, same goes with i.e. simple paper copies. If you copy another copy for a while, it loses it's sharpness and color
What if Agent 8 is working at ammo knights haha!
You know, last year there was a text that Pearl and Marina say in turf war. If the sages are revealed to be Snapped Canal and Manta Maria, Pearl and Marina will say:
"I think they should rename Inkopolis to Cephalopolis."
"Cephalopolis? I like it. Let's start a campaign!"
And I thought that would be the name of the Splatoon 3 Inkopolis. What a fool I was...
these videos are always such a treat
I want to point out something at 7:44
In their Twitter or tumbler page IDK which one had it they said " this splatsvile youth " not inkling or octoling. Since we know that octolings are now playable in the next game then is it possible that the new agent 3 could be an octoling? I don't really know because we only see NA(new agent) 3 as a inkling but not as an octoling so I'm not really sure:/
>Splatoon 3 is coming out September 9th
>One day off from my birthday
Curse you, cruel hand of fate!! T_T
Congratulations and I look forward to ur new theories
It would be cool if instead of stealling the great zapfish the octarians steal little judd - he would only show up on the results when you beat story mode
Can I just say I love the scene with the squidsisters and agent 3 their new design looks great
little jud is spikey like the fuzzy octartions. forgive my spelling im sleepy.
This is just a thought, but I bet the Clothing shop's owner is a Man-o'-war, because the name but also it lines up with Jelonzo and Jelfonzo being jellyfish (man-o'-war are jellyfish)
You gotta be one of my favorite splatoon lore TH-camrs
I no joke now get excited when i see you anywhere! Recently found you and no regrets
I just realized that a picture of flounder heights is in the single/hero mode trailer. Maybe they're bringing it back also if you look in the corner of the pic you can actually see it is the exact picture because there is orange ink (just black and white instead)
I think a prequel splatoon game would be really interesting, maybe set in the Great turf war. The player could play as Cpt Cuttlefish or someone else. It would give a lot of insight into the lore of splatoon.
Small detail I noticed in regards to the sticky notes at 9:07, if you flip the image upside down and look at the symbol again. It looks like Dedf1sh's hat! Perhaps we might be seeing more of Ahato in the third game or hear more of her music.
Oh wow I see it! Nice catch. I really hope she'll be in this one.
Even though my theory that Sheldon is actually Mr. Grizz is now debunked you did make some of the same connections that I did with some of your questions and findings in this video. And also added stuff to it, again despite it being debunked.
Like the new perspective :)
10:34 Maybe their "hats", which are the shells, are alive and the owner has like a split personality between treating like indenspensible pieces of property when they are upset and treasuring them like friends when they are happy. Or heck, maybe they are just delusional and think their hats are actual people, sometimes they break through this delusion when they are upset and just drop the entire "act" and they pick it back up when they are glad. This could tie into a symbiotic relationship with their hats, family, and friends as the shop owner is constantly annoyed or sometimes even joyful over the fact that everyone, even the hats themselves sometimes, are worried over the fact that they believe their own hats are alive. Could be an interesting little thing.
13:23 Let's GOOOOOO! That's what I wanted to see!
this isn’t really related to the video,(more to the direct coming soon) but i think that we’ll get some splatoon 3 news like, more on salmon run, alterna, and the new mechanics, BUT ALSO, maybe we get a global test fire, it seems appropriate because they usually release a test fire about 3-4 months before release, so i think after in the direct they’ll announce it in the splatoon segment, so fingers crossed!
I did see a part of the trailer where the squids tips where fully purple not just darkened. So it's nice nice see that
THE PANTS PLS LOOK AT THE PANTS PLZ
13:46 I think the Ammo Knights logo is just here because this part of the site is themed after a newspaper ad, like you found the job advertisement for GrizzCo inside some newspaper alongside ads for things like Ammo Knights.
Another brand coming back:Firefin
I guess the "evil Octarians" is to separate them from the playable Octarians in matches.
I really hope that the title things are able to be typed, like the things in acnh that you type with your passport instead of the titles that you unlock
custom comments would be amazing and also hilarious
I really hope those octoling ghost mean that we can use thehairstyle of the enemy octolings
Oh not me screaming when i heard man o' wardrobe (siphonophore special interest
Man-'o-wardrobe regular actually gives a lot to be extrapolated upon. There's a jellyfish known as the Portuguese Man o' war, and then that can be mixed with wardrobe to make the name of this game's clothing shop which is backed up by the use of regular. Actually looking at pictures of Man o' wars they do seem pretty distinct from the jellyfish we've had in the games thus far, so I don't think this shop's owner will be related to Jelonzo or Jelfonzo. But another thing I'm noticing is the ridge on the top of these jellyfish that seems way too perfectly shaped and located not to give a cartoon counterpart one meant to represent a mohawk.
I think the logo on the sticky note is upsidown if that is of any use, it also kinda looks like a hat.
Sacculina/crabgirl* would be a funny symbiotic** relationship to have represented. It will probably never happen, but Birdetta and Vivian did, so...
*and it would _have_ to be a girl because of what Sacculina does
**parasitism is considered a subcategory of symbiosis
Also, a Man-o'-War is a colony organism, which could lead to interesting character design.
I honestly like the splatoon 2 colour tips more than the splat 1/3 ones. The other ones look kinda dirty for some reason, it'd be better if they were at least the same saturation as the main tentacle color.
I love how Splatoon 3 is scheduled to release the same day as my favorite movie
Theory: maybe lil' Judd is more brown because of exposure to the fur growing goop.
Considering the last clothes shop owner was a jellyfish and the man’o’war (bluebottle here in Australia) is so closely related, I feel like it’s almost guaranteed that the new clothes shop owner will be a Bluebottle Jelly
