TRUE Octoling Hypnotization | Splatoon 3 Theory
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 дек 2022
- Over the years of Splatoon's lifespan, theres been a prevailing idea that rival Octolings that you play against in the story modes of Splatoon 1, Splatoon 2, and Splatoon 3 are being hypnotized by DJ Octavio with hypnoshades similar to the ones put on Callie of the Squid Sisters. In today's Splatoon theory we're going to find the real root of Octoling hypnotization and mind control and learn why the Calamari Inkantation was so effective.

I don’t think Octavio is saying the octarian lifestyle is better than the inklings, I think he’s saying that the octarian lifestyle is the inklings fault and that the octolings should fight for and with Octavio to make life better in the domes.
I mean, he's not lying there
Honestly was Octavio even ever really a bad guy?
@@jace.r never was
@@jace.r no and for him it’s really sad since he had to fight his friend (and some will say lover) during the great turf war which makes his condition sadder.
@LeoV4X yeah some ship the two
Personal, I believe that Octavio really does have his people’s best interests in mind and just wants them to have a better life (he is their king after all), even if he needs to lie to them about some things (an “the ends justify the means” mentality). Hopefully now that he helped and saw that they really can live in peace, he can tell his people the truth and they can live in peace again like the old days.
he is generally is a nice guy ngl, only wants to help his people, like stealing the zap fish so they can have evergy again, or going all by himself to look for his army, wish we could have a deeper dive on his lore in the splatoon games, he’s honestly one of my favorite characters
I never knew what the glasses actually did and honestly, their actual use I way better than the whole mind control thing in my opinion. Imagine if they actually worked in regular online turf war matches, aim bot confirmed XD
The propaganda thing also is cooler than just mind control and makes sense with splatoon whole theme of tackling racism.
All charger players should use the glasses to pretend they have aimbot because good chargers just have “aimbot” so why not double down on a stupid joke thats derived from the suffering of the masses
Thank you, Octavio isn’t a absolutely evil person. When people believed he hypnotized his own people, it detracted any kind of good he possibly had. When he genuinely wants to help his people, just he goes about it by fighting the inklings, he has so much more story potential.
Obviously that still doesn’t keep him in the “good guy” zone, since he only sees the path of robbery and violence when the octo expansion shows how octolings can clearly be reintroduced to inkling society.
When you were talking about Marina’s laptop, slightly out of frame is the “Ocwasa” sticker, which I’m pretty sure is DJ Octavio (due to an image w/ Octavio with that lettering, it appears to be mimicking an album cover).
And also if you combine DJ Octavio’s English name (Octavio) and his Japanese name (General DJ Takowasa), a possible combination is “Ocwasa” (OCtavio + takoWASA).
This game has such good lore and is a great game all together
“you are not immune to propaganda”- Garfield
Octavio isnt a bad leader. He wants the best for his people(even if that means doing some sketchy stuff, like kidnap-) The domes(which could have been built by humanity) are VERY Old, and we know that the octarians need powet to maintain the domes, and they dont have that, so Octavio steals the zapfish, not for the heck of it, but as an act of preserving and saving his people.
Also, a song that can overwrite a hearer's entire life knowledge and completely change their charater? That sounds like hypnotism to me:
This, i always liked to imagine that the calamari inkantation is the actual hypnotic song, and also i always felt like in splatoon 1 and 2 the octarians are supposed to be the "evil" ones, but the inklings always seemed to be the evil ones to me, since they took back the great zapfish AND all of the other small zapfish (even though we never hear anyone in the games talk about any stolen small zapfish) and yet inkopolis seems to be running fine without the great zapfish, everything there still has power. So the inklings are basically stealing back the octarians only power source which the inklings don't even need, and then taking even more stuff on their way just because. Sounds like something the good guys would do
@@CoaLMaN122PL I think The power _eventually_ runs out without the Zapfish. And they also aren't like forcing the Zapfish to stay on the tower, we know that the Zapfish enjoys flying around and going into the water of Piranha Pit.
Its out of context, what the inkantation realy does its activate the remaining human wishes inside of the crystals that all sea life have inside them
@@CoaLMaN122PL there really is no evil group in Splatoon, just groups of people trying their best to survive normal stuff like power outages, or FRICKING SECRET WARS AND THE APOCALYPSE!
i think a great example of octarian propaganda being shown as the reason to the octarian society be as it is, is the animatic Takotsubo Heartbeat. it shows that they are free, but they are blinded with the “us vs them” kind of mindset since they were born. definitely gonna recommend this vid to my fellow cephalopod pals
I personally don't think the Octarians are hypnotised, considering the fact that if hypnotisation is the restriction of freewill then the UI would be useless to them since they wouldn't be able to pay attention to it. Though, it would be interesting if the genre of Octaronika could have some sort of effect, like an opposite of the inkantation.
actually it'd be cool if there was a opposing song to calamari inkantation that would make the inklings want to join the octarians or would reverse the effect the song has on octolings..if you don't mind, could I use this idea?
@@NIGHTBLOODUSAGI absolutely go ahead! I love that idea.
I heard a theory a while back that the octarians(the ones cut from tentacles, not octolings) are being mind controlled by the music that plays on the stages we fight them in
It's not quite mind control, but it does play a role in keeping them in military formation.
@@lazdahuman that makes more sense
With octotroopers its different, troopers have enought inteligence to just follow orders, they are not complex individuals
but why do some octariens are fully developed (octolings) but some are just severed tentacules
i think the octarians not being controlled by hypnosis and instead its just propaganda honestly fits better into the themes of the series
Good thing there are people like Rassicas keeping localization and head canon at bay!
My only problem here is in your 2nd most recent complete timeline, you described the goggles as though they DID have at least some level of effect, (though i haven't watched your new one, so forgive me if that's outdated), but I'm glad you made this video, as between the obvious in-game evidence, dev interviews and indications in the manga, I had come to this same conclusion already. Thanks for being thorough, addressing all possibilities, noting both the negative and positive traits of the octarian status-quo and Octavio's character, and overall just taking it seriously enough to get the right answer down.
In the relationship chart Callie goes to octavio voluntarily
Canonically, I figured that mind control would be a bit excessive for Octavio. I think he's a good leader for what he has and he hasn't (as far as we know) tried to hunt down the escaped octolings. Canon goggles 1 and 2 are MC free, besides propaganda. I hc that the first ones aren't mind control but the seconds are.
What do you mean, the seconds are?
@@FireForgedTitanium the ones from splat 2, not that it matters since it's not even remotely canon
@@P.cookie Oh, you mean Callie's shade lol.
Isn't sanitization and the fuzzy ozze also a form of brainwashing or no
Yeah It Is
@IceFox09 yea thats what I figured
not really. thats more like fully altering the creature. brainwashing is just controlling thought
@@rizirone But surely with those examples some form of mind control or brainwashing is going on, otherwise they wouldn't fight for Tartar or (insert spoiler for Splatoon 3 here) respectively they'd just go back to fighting for Octavio
@@rizirone ah okay
i would say that both the garden of eden art and the report on the turf wars are not... propaganda. the garden of eden art seems like a very reasonable and realistic example of political art that would be made considering that the inklings (whether they are, in modern day, aware of it or not) literally forced the octarians off of their land and underground. i think octarians have a very genuine reason to dislike inklings.
there is also a lot of evidence behind the octarians winning early battles in the turf wars. octarians winning early battles because inklings slept in seems entirely in line with how inkling society works, they have been stated to sleep in pretty late. like. by the inklings themselves it is the inklings who are the ones completely baffled by the idea of diligence and waking up at 7 am. like i'll agree that it's a pretty silly cultural difference between octarians and inklings but like. its very much in line with the tone of the game. octarians winning early battles is entirely believable. the octarians don't have to "sugarcoat" how they did in the turf wars, they are very very aware that they lost. they are actively living in conditions that suck because they lost. armies can lose a war after winning early battles that is something that happens.
also i think callie should be allowed to be a turquoise october fan their music slaps.
There's no way that they were mind controlled by glasses, they can take it off anytime they want.
As right as you are I just can't shake the feeling that there is no way octario is smart enough to pull this off... Perhaps there is another secret villain.
Hey, I will not stand for this Octavio slander **loads pressure washer with malicious intent**
Thank you so much for this clarification.
For the longest of times I have been trying to get a better representation of the Octarian society, and I always was faced with this dilemma : the great Turf War is more than enough to get octolings to hate inklings (humiliation, terrible life conditions, the parallel is easy to do with the 1929 crisis and debt Germany had to pay), why then did they make it so octolings are mind controlled ?
I believe Splatoon's lore is about us, humans, which now just fits everything together.
This guy made an amazing video on the subject, really go check it out, as they don't tackle what happens, but what it is about ruclips.net/video/eynklkIqH2k/видео.html&ab_channel=RealmW
He’s more like an anti-hero then a villain tbh
This was a great video as always Riri, my only single criticism... I don't think hypnotization is a word.
It could be, I've been wrong before, but I'm 70% sure it's just hypnosis.
Sounds like someone started watching Rassicas videos.
Well, they’re all part of the same sub-community. I’m pretty sure Rizirone is the with the platform to bring a lot of this information to light, while Rassicas and their fellow translators are the ones doing all of the hard work lmao
real
But why do the octolings be positioned in turf battle stages
Saying that inkling society isn't militaristic is just plain wrong, I recommend you a video called the politics of splatoon by RealmW, it's really good
your discord link doesnt work
To put it simple.
Inkling Society: South Korea.
Octoling Society: North Korea.
More like Old Japan vs Modern Japan, which is exactly what it is.
I thought the shades you get in Grizzco are called hypnoshades
I think all rivals octolings are clones of one og octoling (sorry for my english)
Sounds like china and north Korea
Damn this is accurate
comment for the algorithm
Soooo the Octo Valley is basically North Korea
Much less extreme than that. Kinda more like China. Maybe less extreme than that too.
Woooaaahh
E for everyone!

I... I need... To cry... They... They... They might be... Evil... No.. No this cant- this cant be.. they might not.. be hypnotized... Stop ruining my life
