MAKE PAST WIN I NEED GREAT TURF WAR LORE haha

[Splatoon North America @SplatoonNA]

The Grand Festival theme asks, "Which is the most important to you? Past, Present, or Future?"
Shall we look back on the good ol' days, stay in the moment, or think of all the possibilities?

The biggest Splatfest kicks off 9/12 at 5PM PT through 9/15 at 5PM PT!

Musicology here, reporting on new battle tunes by Yoko & the Gold Bazookas. This brassy new band is a side project for Yoko, who’s known as the trumpet player in Ink Theory. We can confirm that when you get 7 musicians who all play horns in the studio, the result is SKA-MAZING!

I found a translation of part of Splatoon 3’s art book. Did you know that the floating respawn points are made using Octarian technology?

Important lore about Octavio!!!

[🦞🦀🦑カイ🦑🦀🦞 @rassicas]

Why does Octavio always stay in octopus form? this age-old splatoon lore mystery finally has an official answer: he was injured.

funny thing is, this was in what was supposed to be a "review" section of splatoon's story in the October 2018 issue of Nintendo Dream magazine.

If anyone happens to still be reading these posts, and is confused about how / if the Great Turf War relates (or doesn’t relate) to the Octolings living in the Splatlands (like I was for a few months), I found this helpful:

SRL Ballistics keeping the research rolling with info on a new special weapon…the Super Chump! If you're tired of enemies camping near your Super Jump spots, this one's for you. It'll launch decoys that look like Super Jump landing spots, only to explode a short while later.

Is that the new Turquoise October album art???

[Octopus Research Lab Unofficial 🐙 @lab_octopus]

Octopus Kraken!

[Splatoon North America @SplatoonNA]

Behold—the Kraken Royale! Activate this special to transform into a giant squid or octopus with the power to splat and scatter enemies left and right. You can jump to trigger a wide-ranging spin move, or hold and release the ZR Button to unleash a one-shot charge attack!

[Splatoon North America @SplatoonNA]

As for the second wave, we're flummoxed! What is that strange tower? Why has everything turned white and ghostly? What's on that Octoling's mind? We're going to get to the bottom—or maybe the top—of this, so stay tuned for further updates on our research.

[Semi-Obscure Splatoon Facts! @Splatfacts]

Today's fact is something to cleanse your mind for the day:
When Octotroopers clean up the ink that you've sprayed around them they definitely seem to enjoy it, look at that smile. You never see them quite this happy, I love it oh so much!
