Also i want to clear up something I got wrong. This obviously doesn't retract from the tragedy that is TarTar, but he didnt blend 10000 Octolings. For one Isopadre (who he is isnt important) is said to have gone through the trials and escaped successfully, meaning it wasnt just Octolings (hes a fucking isopod, this game is LITTERED with puns like this). More importantly, i LITERALLY say in the video that he first tested them to see if they were worthy of being apart of the Blended Ink, meaning not everyone was worthy of being blended. It could be argued that he blended them anyway and just disposed of the waste, but I think the more likely answer is that he would just simply sanitize the unworthy ones.
Also i accidentally cut a line out of the video that I wanted to share. Deadf1sh willingly became sanitized so they could let go of their fears and doubts, allowing them to put all of their focus into making music.
Thank for read, love you

I will
I'll try to join soon!!
I am not paying attention to the actual thing I’m paying attention to how you made it EXACTLY 10:00 long
Lmao that was intentional. My goal was 8-10 minutes and it just happened to be 9:58 when I was done so I decided to take four of the cut to blacks and make them 0.5 seconds longer
Hey, Splatoon is baby's first shooter. And baby's first existential crises.
I think you did forget Kirby ON the second part
@@AceRisingChaoticMind hmmm, Kirby is more baby's first cosmic horror. It's similar but not quite the same.

Can't write "Splatoon" without "apocalypse: Now"
I love infodumping splatoon lore highlights to friends, they are ALWAYS suprised
SAME Lmfao, that's why I made this video I love shocking people with the realization of how fucked up splatoon can be
Yeah, it’s always fun explaining how you can hear the screams of the people being blended after the final boss in splatoon 1 :)
same
Imagine being a kid and not knowing what the heck other species look like you, and fighting a Ai that you need to save a city you don't know about and was just about to be turned into bender fluid (edit) don't forget that the grandma didn't like octolings
Same I told my friends about the wars and the the nuke on the bus and he was like wtf
Splatoon after putting racial wars in a kids game for no reason:🥰
I mean there already is a race war in America with people trying to get Frye a splatfest win lol
And does a better job at handling those themes than a lot of more "mature" games
@@Jcoleotsome frye fans are blaming japanese players for shiver having a win streak which is so crazy 😭
@@inklingplush7592 which is funny because Frye actually has a splatfest win in Japan
It’s actually not a race war since they are entirely different species. Funnier to call it a race war though
That's not even the worst part about Sanitization. I don't remember whether this was said in an interview or in game, but I'm pretty sure that the reason sanitization turns someone green is because you extract the memories and desire of a person, turn them into physical form, extract the consciousness, then make a new body *out of the blended ink* and place what's left of the consciousness in there. That's why they're green. The form just resembles what they used to look like. But that's also why the green effect isn't reversed after you gain your memories (like we saw with Acht regaining memory and still not going back to normal.) sanitization is terrifying. E for everyone does not always mean for kids.
6 hours of research and I somehow missed that, that's super interesting
@@Pocketnaut it might've been revealed somewhat recently. I don't remember exactly where I got it, although I'm about 80% sure it was something official.
@@RikkiJkpretty sure that was revealed in side order
The wiki doesn't mention it but it also says that Agent 3 is the only ink/Octoling to have been partially sanitized, which is wrong (DeadF1sh). I'll keep looking around, do you watch rassicas? I remember she made a video translating a developer interview but I didn't finish the video and I remember them mentioning sanitization and talk about deadf1sh
@@tiago_hb if that's the case I haven't played side order yet (literally buying it today)
I have to assume they’re eating non-evolved squid. It’d be like if Humans started eating monkey meat, it’d be weird but there’s probably people out there that do that
They are! It was confirmed in an art book but a better comparison is pork (since we have similar enough genetics to run test on them and taste similarly, as well as the frequency that they eat squid)
@@P.cookie Yep, but wouldn't that be like a man being able to turn into a pig and then eating pig?
@@pokemaster21 more like humans turning into a large deformed mini pig and eating pork, but like... pigs and squids are known cannibal species since it's more common to be one than not in the animal kingdom. Wait, the inklings aren't cannibals at all lmao they've not eating other inklings (as far as we know)
It is non-evolved squid. I think of it as a bit different from monkeys as the cognitive difference between humans and monkeys is way smaller than the cognitive difference between Inklings and Squid.
Hearing someone shout "Race war!" as Bang Bang Bing starts to play is the most Splatoon interaction ever.
BANG BANG 🗿dodododo BANG BANG 🗿
I think the song is called seep and destroy
3:42 for those wondering
Dang, he didn’t talk about the celebrities fighting in the second and third race wars. Or the attempted furry world domination. Or the metaverse kidnappings. Or Judd and his evil clone
Or the fact that all the inklings and octolings get paid to kill off another species and steal their young for a suspicious boss.
@@elekkittyand said suspicious boss just so conveniently being the same boss that attempted furry world domination
the lore for this franchise is insane

I remember playing splatoon a long time ago, never really thought of this game that deeply, its crazy how complicated the lore is for a "kids" game like this
it was never a kids game lol, its e for everyone.
fair, but you can tell that the game was kind of directed towards kids, with the bright colors, music, etc

I’m about 2,000 total hours deep into this game franchise since 2015, and this seems about right. It gets the splatoon fan seal of approval :D
Same
Bro forgot to mention that the first two games storymodes were just you committing genocide
had a reason tho
What’s really cool is that side order is a virtual reality universe that Marina made with some other octolings to restore sanitized octolings and Dedf1sh was one of the octolings who got restored.
Dude I've been trying so hard to not spoil anything about Side Order and you said that literally right AFTER I beat the tutorial and learned what you just said lmao
@@Pocketnaut lol I’m so sorry, I honestly didn’t even think about spoilers, I was just trying to add something cool on par with your video
No worries, it's should be expected that the guy making a lore video about a game has played all of its content 😂. I'm just glad I was able to discover it first
@@Pocketnaut I’m glad you were too 😅
I heard in a interview that inklings and octolings have turf wars because if they didn't have any other competitive game an actual war would break out
That implies that splatoon’s population enjoys war crimes by nature?
@@yaxier2558 i mean, have you seen how violent cephalopods can be? im not surprised lol
Huh, so that means the Splatoon world is more dangerous than ours... Surprised
i mean, real life competitive sports like football are just game versions of wars
@@sapphire4310Buhurt especially
I have been part of the splatoon lore community for a while now so I’m just going to help clear a few smaller things up for people and patch a plot hole or two in the story.
1. While the splatoon 1 lore comic is pretty useful for gathering some idea of some of the story before humans went into the underground domes, it is very outdated and the information in it could be entirely wrong at this point in the story. But Splatoon 3 clarifies what actually caused the mass extinction event with the Alterna Logs. While there still probably was a raging war humanity got destroyed more by a collection of bad timing with natural disasters including various intense volcanic eruptions along side serous sea level increases.
2. The reason why the Alternan’s chose a rocket to escape to the surface and not just use the tunnels out is that that was a product of Nintendo of America changing parts of the lore when translating it. In the original Japanese version the goal was to y’know actually go to space with the Spirit Lifter and not just see the surface.
3. While it is true that the Inklings and Octarians have a modern day feud it is another Nintendo of America translation that led to the feud being related to race. The actual reason for the ongoing feud is much more Interesting. It is all related to the idea of two rival nations giving propaganda to their people to dehumanize each other. While both ways each of them use propaganda differ with DJ Octavio being much more intense with having diagrams depicting inklings as mindless savage animals in classrooms, while Inklings have Octarains losing the war because of their inferior number of limbs.
4. This one is a bit nickpicky but Tartar’s goal with the N.I.L.S. Statue wasn’t to control all of Inkopolis but to eradicate all sentient marine life using the DNA of the best test subjects who would be a « Primordial ooze in which a ultimate life form would emerge ».
5. The blended Octolings and various other sea creatures aren’t actually used to sanitize the Octarains but instead as I said before, used to make the Primordial Ooze. They use a special sanitized ink to remove the soul of the Octarain and then they fill it with a replacement that then controls what the Octarain does. Sorta like how we clean bacteria to insert our own DNA to control the bacteria.
Btw this isn’t to say this video is bad, I actually enjoyed it a lot! I just always like to clarify some lore details because there is so much lore misinformation in the splatoon details that it’s always good to inform people ‘bout the proper lore. Thanks for making this and getting the lore side of splatoon out there more!
this might make me a bad person but seeing the thumbnail with agent 8 saying lobotomized is literally so funny 😭
no but fr tho💀
@@yepthatsbobcatAGENT 8S BRAIN CAME OUT OF HER HEAD 😭
FIRE IN THE HOLE
Pick 8s poison, jujitsu kaisen or FIRE IN DA HOLE 🔥🕳
@@omegastar._.official 8 BALL IN THE HOLE
I would just like to mention that while there were 10,008 applicants to Tartar's trials, only those who passed the required amount of trials and found "worthy" were blended. An example of an applicant who wasn't found worthy and is still alive and now chilling in Inkopolis square in Splatoon 3 is Iso Padre. Only a fraction of applicants were found worthy and blended.
10,007 victmins what if there is way to bring they back?
Inklings and octolings are pratically pure ink so what if we Just filter the goop they were transformed to redcue them?
I adore that Splatoon has slowly revealed it's darkness hiding under the bright and colorful exterior with each passing main line game, like the devs are slowly peeling back how deep this rabbit hole goes knowing that they've already got ya from how unassuming the surface of the franchise looks.
The octarian technology also gets very dark. The octoweapon you showed; the Octo Oven? Well it used to be an industrial grade oven, but it launched bread out so hard they went 'well, we can make this a weapon' and baked actual Octarians into the bread to be utilized. Biotech is pivotal to how the Octarians survived being forced underground, and even if the octarians in question might have been okay with it, it is super messed up when you think about it. The Duality of splatoon's light hearted aesthetic coupled with it's deeply terrifying subject matter is a boomerang that keeps hitting me in the face.
Yep.
_Insert something about Salmonid culture glorifying not just dying in battle, but being cooked and eaten as a respectable way to go out here_
Looks like you really "splat" the target on this one, I'd say you did a "inking" good job
Side Order, the DLC for Splatoon 3, is fortunately, a lot more light-hearted. But it does touch on topics like how humans sometimes might want a world where they are no conflicts and everything is in "control", as in "mind-control", and how sometimes we want everything to be in order. But the story is mostly heart-warming
Also wholesome pearlrina moments
@@blazie42069 i was literally about to comment "and gay. so gay" XD
i love pearlina. their VA's are actually friends IRL and have made a song together!
This video is mind blowing. With the level of quality and attention to detail completely shattering my expectations, it's easy to call this my favorite video of yours and your best work to date. My eyes were glued to this documentary throughout, and I can't wait to see what's next. As always, incredible job, and damn well done.
Read this 10 minutes ago but couldn't respond bc I'm at work, I've had the biggest smile on my face the entire time. Thank you so much I'm so glad you enjoyed it 💜💜
Just to clarify: Humanity in Splatoon world didn't go extinct because of ocean levels rising, that was explained in Splatoon 1's guide, but in Splatoon 3 is revealed that the global scale conflict triggered a lot of natural disasters besides the increase in the ocean levels, like volcano eruptions, massive earthquakes, high pollution levels, diseases and so on.
Even if the ice in both Earth poles melted, it's not enough water to flood even half of the Earth's surface. I think that's why Nintendo changed the story about humanity's extintion.
See I was thinking that, that's why I explained that the nuke was exceptionally powerful because it would because I would have to assume that the entirety of Antarctica melted over to produce enough water if that's even enough. Where is the information found, in the Alterna logs?
@@Pocketnaut It's basically the very first entry in the Alterna Logs.
Holy shit dude, this video was genuinely amazing. The production quality and attention detail, i was definitely not expecting this
Thank you so much :). I put an INSANE amount of work into it, it was my long form debut (I don't count my other ones they're like 2-3 minutes long) so I went all out. Can't be happier that you enjoyed it 💜
inklings arent very smart but that helped them not make another great turf war as soon as octolings will step out on surface mistaking them as inklings with weird hairs
8:38 Great video, but smmaaalll correction. Dedf1sh was never "partially sanitised", that was actually a translation error. The more accurate translation is "they partially wanted to be sanitised", meaning that they kinda wanted to be sanitised if it meant they could continue working on their music, and thus Dedf1sh was fully sanitised. Other than that, banger video 👍
That makes SO much sense
Yes, the correct translation is indeed that “she partially wanted to be sanitized”. I don’t know why people say she was partially sanitized

Kirby:
"Finally, a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary!"
TEN MINUTES of quality work from my favorite youtuber? Yes pls
It’s nice to see more people cover this franchise. It is one of my most favourite franchises and is pretty underrated. Thank you for this video!
Of course! My target demographic was actually people who either aren't fans of splatoon or think splatoon is a kids game. That's why I put "LOBOTOMIZED" front and center and started the title off with "Splatoon:", I figured it would catch the attention of these people
Also In case you don't know, it's actually not underrated at all in Japan, rivaling even POKEMON in it's levels of cultural influence
@@Pocketnaut woah,never knew in Japan it rivalled Pokémon! That’s nice to know! All I know is where I’m from even in school no one plays/played it
@@1MPULSE21 yeah and like I said I fully believe that to be the marketing. I would recommend looking up a Japanese commercial for the game, it takes itself way more seriously and are actually super nice
@@Pocketnaut I’ll have a look,thanks!
@@1MPULSE21 In japan they take turf wars and splatfests really seriously. There were actually some issues with adding fizzybangs to splatfests and some japanese players complained about it. They even have food based on splatoon and there even was a nike collab and they made some trainers once. I remember seeing the add as a kid.
It's nice to know the worlds peaceful thanks for warning us of WW5
While Splatoon lore isn’t something I focus on, I love how the game has so many dark moments but then always ends with something positive to give you hope, both for there world and ours. Of course most of the Splatoon world is safe but we see the threats that lie in the dark and the game always gives us hope that these threats can be stopped and keep people safe
Us splatoon players get to confuse people by saying things like "HE'S KRAKEN CHEESING" and "IS THAT A TARTAR REFERENCE?"
I think the Octolings/Octarians stayed underground at least semi-willingly after the Great Turf War because of DJ Octavio's brainwashing or whatever it is he's up to. The Octolings who ended up in the Metro are most likely ones who heard the Calamari Inkantation during Splatoon 1's final boss fight(and potentially Splatoon 2's depending on the timeline for when Octo Expansion happens) and became curious about the surface, eventually looking for ways to escape and winding up in the Metro. So they literally just wanted freedom after being exposed to a world they were conditioned to hate and then got turned into goop instead.
also 4:06 ive never watched neon genesis evangelion but my brain has decided that those things are squid evas
God I love making long form videos over shorts, so many good insightful comments that actually make me think.
Small correction-the Octarians aren't brainwashed! At least, not in the same way Callie was. While they have been fed anti-Inkling propaganda, they're not under any actual mind control-it's moreso just another example of how militarized Octarian society really is rather than any kind of villainous plot.
omg I didn’t know you were a splatoon fan too! btw great video
Thank you 💜 And I've been a splatoon fan from the moment the game was public knowledge 😁
YOOOO I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!
Nice work on the research!!
I love seeing my friends' reactions when they discover Splatoon has lore, and how dark its lore is! I love it when I get to the World War 5 part and the Sanitization part, and I like using my pfps to give further visualisation of a sanitized octoling lmaooo!!
Thank you! I watched like 6 hours of comprehensive lore deep dives (despite knowing mostly everything outside of Octo Expansion, which I THOUGHT I knew a lot about but my understanding was littered with misconceptions), had to make sure that everything I said was completely accurate and was luckily re-remindrd of the cannibalism bit last minute
Also SAME Lmfao, I love lore dumping this game to my friends that was the primary inspiration for the video
Let’s not forget that the inklings are so stupid, they only won the Great Turf War because a power plug got pulled on the octoling side and the octolings couldn’t use their weapons. And then the inklings thought they won because they had more tentacles. Gotta love those squids
Yes
i love how silly the great turf war was. i think there was something in splatoon 1 about how the octarians attacked early in the morning, because all the inklings liked to wake up late
Ngl the bad ending for the dlcs and hero modes are FRIED UP
YES. nintendo has always sprinkled creepy elements into its game, and splatoon is no exception. I love what they did with the Big Run events, where salmonids invade the main hub. the cheery music is replaced with a sinister tone, and you can even hear the sounds of chaos in the air: the roars of king salmonids, the warning ring of a last player making a hopeless stand against overwhelming odds, or the iconic noises that boss salmonids emit.
I'd say it's closer than you think between this and the series with canonical parricide, life draining alien parasites, genocide, form stealing virus-like other parasites, and the most ungodly thing of all: Metroid Other M and Metroid Prime: Federation Force
*stares at splatoon games and amibo*
Yep
I was wondering how this franchise could get darker than the Kirby franchise of all things - I was not disappointed. Well done! Lovely video.
Splatoon Gameplay:
“Splash-O-Matic is the best shooter in splatoon due to its accuracy, jump fire rate, damage, and Ink efficiency. It’s kit helps it take over the battlefield with relative ease, being a…”
“so true!!!!”
*Splatoon Lore:*
As a Splatoon guy with the Forge profile picture. This is awesome
Pocketnaut long form video is nothing but a gift from the universe
From babies first shooter to babies first race war
The fact that we can be close to create a splatoon world is scary
The final bosses for OE and splat 3’s bosses I lovingly call the eugenics laser and the capitalism rocket
There’s also this giant bear from that Noah’s Space Rocket that exploits Inklings and Octolings to exploit and kill Salmonids for their eggs in order to turn everyone into a mammal.
As someone who started with Splatoon 3, Splatoon lore is a dark mindfuck that's for sure
Pokemon can get super dark with the manga and lore implications, but splatoon takes it to a new level of dark
Great video! I've always loved the darker aspects of Splatoon, so its nice your shedding some light on it.

Comments by someone who likes this franchise a Very Regular Amount, mostly to add information to people who don't know the lore
0:07 I say it's still marketed more like a casual experience (ruclips.net/video/E56la2yNwo0/видео.html). Japan's market is just more into quirky unconventional stuff I believe
0:51 There were *at least* 5 world wars (to my memory)
4:34 I believe this is to reflect real-life inkfish being cannibals. They eat the not-sapient, less evolved species if that somehow eases your consciousness
6:34 cough cough after alterna cough
6:52 Sanitized ink is made for the giant laser statue, Tartar's goal was to make the "perfect lifeform" out from the most intelligent test subjects somehow. It also can make Sanitized Octarians, and presumably sanitize other species
8:02 Agent 8 was actually subject 10008, so at least that many people were tested, but not necessarily accepted into being blended. Octarians weren't the only species to go through the trials, as Iso Padre (giant isopod) was also a former test subject
Feel free to make corrections or add tidbits of your own
The video is so cool and flows so well. Great effort!
4.08
1 thing to add to the great Turf War. 😅
The inklings just won because the octoling used cables to power their weapons( yk, great octoweapons and stuff) and someone tripped over the wire and accidentlly cut off all of the power of the octarians. 😐
(At least that's what probably happened, based on sunken scolls.)
That was also how Lil'Judd was created(but you didn't mention 'em here sooo.. )
But that's deeper and minor lore, which takes way longer to explain than 10 minutes(trust me. I watched a 4 h video to understand EVERYTHING), so I don't blame you!
Amazing video btw!
I watched the 4 hour video as well lmao
I literally was shaking while watching through the whole video X,D
I just absolutely adore splatoon lore and seeing it getting even more attention makes me so happy !!!
As someone who dont know anything about splatoon this sure was a suprise. I need to play it now.
8:05 btw, the phone doesn't "kill" 10000 people, they were 10000 subjects, and most of them didnt even finish the levels and stuff, its most likely that he killed 1000 or less people that were a subject, you can tell it because iso padre in the train, tells you that he was a subject too but never finished so yeah.
Thank you so much for making this video. this is both nintendos darkest and most underrated series (in the states) and it needs to be spread badly
Also plz do a video on side order
I thought about this topic a lot to as playing Splatoon 3 more even though I’m not a huge Splatoon fan looking at the backstory files that you get from the missions you realize how much darker the whole story can get

I loved this video, I'm subscribing :)
I love the edit in the beginning with the inkling falling
Always love seeing a splatoon fan 🙏
im not great at commenting my thoughts but i really enjoyed this video and the editing is very cool. i only just now realised that yeah, sanitised octolings are basically lobotomised. anyway, keep up the good work ^_^
I started with Splatoon 2 as the 2nd game I ever got for my switch, got way more out of it then Pokken Tournament DX, that's for sure. Splatoon is awesome, if you haven't played it before, I'd recommend checking it out
Right dude, I didn't get to talk about it in the video because it wasn't the point but mechanically splatoon is a masterpiece
6:34 but it was really fan and then once you get all the skills that you learn from it, it’s even more fun
Oh yeah I agree, Octo expansion was awesome
1:23 started reading the earth fan fiction
LOBOTOMIZED ?? LIKE GEOMETRY DASH FIRE IN THE HOLE ????🗣 🔥🔥

(Shout out to the Rassicas iceberg video)
Splatoon turned saw real fast
Dude fliping love the splatoon franchise. The setting, the characters, the gameplay, the music and even the really dark slightly traumatizing lore that has no reason to be there.
need more vids like this on my feed.

6:36 I totally agree. I still have nightmares about some level, and the Agent 3 second fight
“Splatoon: Nintendo’s darkest franchise”
Mother 3 causally traps an immortal being in a capsule he cannot leave, even after the world has Crumbled away he’ll never die
As someone who loves splatoon. Idk if id say darkest nintendo series or if its not even close to others. A lot of messed up stuff happens in it but xenoblade and fire emblem exist. So idk
i refused to play splatoon for 7 years and i finally got 3 and fell in love. much darker than i was expecting when i learned all the current lore. splatoon is now my favorite game franchise, if the profile picture wasn't enough to hint at it
Pleaseee do a video on the bands next omg the lore is really hard to find but when you do find it is really funny and borderline insane. It sometimes feels like a sea creature parody of real life rock band discourse.
Inklings won the war because the great octoweapons got unplugged right at the end that's why they use zapfish rn
You are correct but that doesn't change the facts that the inklings has literally nukes that they used to win the war. The part about how "octolings were winning because the Inklings couldn't get up in the morning" and "The Octolings lost because a plug accidentally got unplugged" are absurdist and attract from the grim story of the lore so I decided not the include them here
Loved the video!
There is a lot more going on but that video pretty much sums it up. When Octolings are sanitized, their memories will become memcakes, which stores those memories, in Side Order, the concept of memcakes is expanded on with Marina trying to give people their memories back through a game which eventually turned into Side Order, it's a lot less messed up than Octo Expansion but it touches on topics that are although more light-hearted, also more sad and heart-warming
Great video!
There's a few mistakes like the route the inklings and octolings used to escape alterna, when they escape through a hole made by the explosion of the reactor that killed the humans, and also the lack of Mr Grizzy lore but essentially its everything yeah
This game is the alternate world to kevin costners waterworld.
The fact that a Splatoon character and a Library of Ruins character are extremely similar is horrifying to me
(Commander Tartar and Angela)
Since you mentioned Ruina, don't forget its prequel, Lobotomy Corporation, or its sequel, Limbus Company
Finally, after all these years of waiting...
As a theorist, whenever I say Splatoon is crazy dark for a Nintendo game (at least a newer one lol) people look at me like I'm insane 😭😭
I was playing splatoon and then you posted this lol
I was playing Splatoon when you commented this :)
(ALL OF MY TEAMATES HAD NZAP 89 WHY)
The funny thing was the reason why the octolings lost the race war were due to power outage, the plugged every weapon they have to one plug and someone accidentally unplugged it
