HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPLATOON 3!!

i love the splatoon series with all my heart. ive been playing the series since day one, back when i was nine hears old. this series is almost half my age! i don't know how i first heard about splatoon, but when i did i'd look for every crumb of info and gameplay i could find on it. i'd watch gamexplain videos talking about the campaign, i'd find footage of splatoon booths set up at places like e3, i was absolutely ravenous, for anything splatoon. i even got the inkling boy and girl amiibo when they came out! this series is very likely my number one favorite franchise of all time, and i don't know if that'll ever change. when i heard about the global testfire i was ecstatic, and had a blast! same thing with splatoon 2, i partook in the global testfire/splatfest, my parents got me the game on day one, and i put maybe 100 hours or more into it, it would've been more if not for nintendo implementing paid online around that time, too!

i remember imprinting on agent three, seeing myself in them. i remember callie and marie, the squid sisters! i remember that crazy coot captain cuttlefish telling this young 'un about the octarians, and being so entrances by the vibe of octo valley from the first moment i stepped foot in there. i remember the art style being so *perfect* across the entire game. i remember when nintendo announced acto expansion in the same nintendo direct as smash ultimate i think, and my splatoon mania being instilled once again. i remember playing one of my favorite chunks of game in my life with octo expansion. i remember completing every level cause i loved it so much. i remember seeing *my old self*. seeing three. again. after what was 3 and a half years or so by then. i remember the insanity that was the final segment of octo expansion, fighting myself and the splattack (octo) theme. i remember fly octo fly, a song that makes me tear up without fail even today. i remember tartar. i remember inner agent three and their crushing moveset. i was a few weeks late to splatoon 3, which makes me kind of sad, but this game has forgiven me. it's made me realize how important splatoon is to me as a person, and ive given back to it by dumping more hours into it than i have the last three installments in the splatoon series combined, and im here to stay! i LOVE you splatoon, and i LOVE you splatoon 3!

HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SPLATOON 3!!! While we all celebrate the big splat fest and eagerly await side order, I thought I’d share my own little idea I’ve been cooking up for my own take on a DLC expansion. Splatoon 3: Mission Manta. Which would include a new playable race, the Mantalings.

the story would take place after splatoon 3's main story mode (and probably side order) where seismic activity was recently detected near the Inkopolis boarder line where the nearest agent of the NNSS, Agent 4 is sent to investigate along with sheldon. when the 2 arrive they investigate a damaged sewer line that has a massive fissure in it, where they discover the lost city of Mantlantis. original home of the Mantafolk and former trade capitol of the old world, which vanished overnight a little over 100 years ago just before the great turf war. turns out it was actually forced underground by a mysterious machine known as Dr. Balu.

Who has been using the descendants of those who were unfortunate enough to survive the capturing of the city as mindless workers via a special control collar that releases a special metallic ink into the wearers and a special frequency to manipulate their movements. however agent 4 and Sheldon are able to free one of the servants, a Mantaling by putting some headphones on em and playing the calamari incantation.

This person becomes agent M, who now must wander the sunken city to find a way to stop Dr Balu's plans once and for all,

Throughout the game you would be in contact with the various other agents and idols via a radio headset and big man would be the #1 lore expert on the place since its his ancestral homeland
