I love how they manage to make them all so different style wise (the Squid Sisters being your typical idol maybe J-pop duo, Off The Hook giving a more modern vibe with Pop & Rap, and now Deep Cut giving fusion group vibes). Also this style reflects in all the songs and they are all such BANGERS even if it’s gibberish
Squid Sisters were J-Pop, Off the Hook was English pop, Deep Cut appears to be... their own thing (because chaos lol), but a fusion of traditional music with pop vibes and I love them
It's really amusing seeing people complaining about Frye's design the exact way people complained about Pearl's design when she was first revealed. Pearl is now super beloved, I'm sure the same will happen with Frye.
To be fair, I think all three idols fulfill a trend of media in Japan. With Frye, the typical "Mo'" Look. With Shiver, the Fox Eye look. And finally with Big Man, the classical Mascot look, like Kumamon. Although, this doesn't mean that Big Man is a costume. He just... sorta resembles one.
I instantly liked Frye. Her design is giving me Thai vibes especially with how she dances. I also see the kabuki inspiration and the Japanese “wild” style.
I love the difference between deep cut and the other idol groups I love off the hook and squid sisters but they're pretty mainstream esque, not a bad thing but I love how the chaos (which isn't shown to be a bad thing in the new game so far atm) can cause beautiful new kinds of things Deep cut feels like they're unapologetically themselves, not caring about what the corporate world wants. Fuck the rich, they're making a Japanese, Indian, Brazilian esque song and it's gonna be awesome Also their styles, gosh I want it
I also love how ambiguous Frye and Shiver's appearances are, in the way that they don't look fully Inkling or fully Octoling. Like after the events of Octo Expansion, Octoling and Inklings cultures, styles, and appearances all kinda fused together like a true melting pot
If I hadn't read the wiki I wouldn't have known that Shiver was an Octoling, she looks very neutral just like Frye, that makes them special in my opinion
shiver doesn't seem to have the eye markings of either inklings or octolings. they honestly hit an uncanny valley, with the red blushing and lack of eye markings. the only thing signifying that they aren't human is their hair.
Has anyone realized that Frye may not be an inkling OR an octoling? Frye doesn’t have suction cups on her hair (not on the inside nor on the outside), her ears are different from octoling and inkling ears, and her eyes/eyelashes are very unique! Could this be a new species?
Something thats been on my mind for a long time since playing splatoon 1 is that the animations for the hands for each game just get better and better. Like, its a weird detail to point out, but the Squid Sisters always felt a little weird when dancing because their hands were always so clunky and never seemed to move much when the rest of them did, or looked like they held no weight at all when resting on their sides or such. Off The Hook were much more expressive with their hands when dancing, especially Pearl, and were a lot more believeable in weight, though some parts of their animations were still a little clunky. Deep Cut, however, are absolutely fantastic looking! Their animations look perfect, expressive, and super well done, and it's really cool to see just how much the developers and artists have grown since Splat1.
My favorite part about the 3 groups is that it’s ridiculously hard to hate them. Each group has their own strengths and niches that they fit *perfectly* so choosing a favorite comes down to personal preference instead of who’s objectively the best.
You got a good point out of all the games and new idols they made None of them feel like there badly designed or hated and there all very unique to there theme
The idol designs have come such a long way since the first game. I do like the Squid Sisters, but they felt too similar appearance-wise. I adored Off the Hook and became more attached to them because of their uniqueness. Deep Cut’s designs feel the most creative yet and I can’t wait to find out more about their personalities in-game. Off the Hook will always have a special place in my heart, but I’m really excited about the new reveal and I’m as pumped as ever for Splatoon 3. Bring it! Also, Anarchy Rainbow is already my favourite Splatfest concert song of the three! 😁
Agreed, city of color is great but color pulse is a little boring and basic for off the hooks songs. Anarchy rainbow makes you feel the hype of a splatfest
sameeee, i love off the hook and i feel like ive bonded a lot with them through the dlc as well, and if they're in that new dlc like the silhouettes suggest then ill be very happy
For me the Squid Sisters (as a german, I know them as the Sea Sirens) will always be the best Inkopolis Duo. Calamari Inkantation is a class for itself. But Anarchy Rainbows truelly sound epic.
@@little_creecher Theyre called „Aioli“ and „Limone“ for some reason tho…….. Limone I get but Aioli is literally just a sauce 😦 edit: (the squid sisters i mean)
I like that Splatoon 3 is finally showing growth of society. In Splatoon 1 octolings were discriminated underground but they now live peacefully with inklings, now some mysterious species might be revealed, the new idol shiver appears to be neither inking nor octoling, and there is probably lore behind her species
Some people say that Frye doesn't look like neither an inkling or octoling either. New species perhaps? Guess we'll have to find out when we all get to play the game.
@@cbsyll that could be a possibility as well. I mean the game is about sea creatures of all kinds over ruling the lands, I wouldn't be surprised if a cuttling exists in the world of Splatoon
So every idol has some kind of head ornament. Calli and Marie wear ikayaki and raw calamari ring respectively, both popular dishes to prepare squid into. Pearl has a Crown and Marina has her Headphones, like how stereotypically rappers have their bling and DJs have headphones. Pearl's crown could also be a reference to the fact she's rich. Frye is wearing what looks like, a fried calamari ring, maybe she's a Calli Mari fan. It could also be a scrunchie so bonus points for that sporty feel. Shiver is wearing a mix between sake cup and hachimachi. Really leaning into the Yakuza/Japanese Delinquent vibe she's trying to pull. I have no clue what Big Man is wearing though, but ay it looks good.
I’m not sure of the exact name, but I’m pretty sure big man’s wearing a hibachi chef hat!! Also- thank god for your notes too- it’s super fun to learn the little design details from someone who knows more!!
It's funny how these reveals change each game. Splatoon 1- A very janky dance that was probably early in their early studio. Splatoon 2- Shows em just dancing while in the square instead of a random area like Splatoon 1s. Splatoon 3- Has an animated intro and shows em dancing in the new hub area. Love the evolution of the reveals.
Deep Cut Is So True To The Chaos Style and I love the Culture Nintendo put into it. I don't know why everyone's saying Frye's design is bad. I personally think Deep Cut has some of the best Idol/character designs. Also The New Idol Song Is amazing. Prove me wrong. You cant Edit: I didn't Mean For anyone In the comments To Start Beef Or Whatever But You Do You LOL And Thanks Sm For The Likes
Okay then, here are the only problems I have with the new Idol designs (-big man) Frye- I don’t mind the forehead, it’s the eyes that put me off. And her costume is *kinda* bland, not much color. Shiver- again, the eyes, but more creep factor. Costume is gud tho. Edit: Didn’t realize I was using twitter today
I love how Shiver looks elegant and sort of villainous with her sharp eyes, and how Frye looks like she’s about to explode with chaotic energy and the contrast gives me life Also what is there to say for big man he speaks for himself
They’re going to pop up in that dlc, you could see the shadows, don’t worry! The squid sisters popped up in splatoon 2 so pearl and marina will be in this game as well!!
Im sorry Fly Octo Fly and but Anarchy Rainbow has now taken second best spot of Splatoon songs. Calamari Inkantation will forever stay the first. It is THE Splatoon song
You can say anything you want about Frye's head design, but I believe her main design is based on Arabic Belly Dancers. If I'm correct, and please if any arabic people can vouch for me, I can hear a Mizmar (arabic wind instrument) in the song. I really love her design tbh.
I'm not arab, nor am I an expert in any of this, but the music here is a combination of traditional Japanese music and Brazilian Samba. Given the Japanese influence on Shiver, we might want to consider if there is some Brazilian influence for Frye? I've also seen people state she has some Indian influence. I'm curious to see if we'll be able to find development notes about this in the future! I also love Frye's design a lot, including her head. I think she's really cute.
I’m gonna call it, the final splatfest for 3 is going to be a against all the idols. Squid sister vs. off the hook vs. deep cuts. I’ve been thinking it since the reveal trailer dropped amd all the numbers just add up, which is 3.
That does make me realize that, in the lore of the game, a splatfest is partially an excuse to officiate that one thing is better than another, so if such a splatfest happens, by the end of it, one group is going to be considered the best of them all. That’s gonna be a tough choice.
@@TuxPeng or a cameo on the broadcast, like off the hook hacking into the broadcast like they do in octo expansion, and squid sisters busting into the studio brute force or smth idk 💀 and they all have their own teams
what amazes me is how the scale gets bigger as the games do. the first idol introduction was a casual “here’s the idol group, look at them sing” that wasn’t touched on for more than some seconds with overall basic visuals. by splatoon 2, idols were known, and the next reveal served as an introduction to the change in musical style and personality that the game had. and now, after 2 huge successes, splatoon 3 has the ball fully rolling with this amazing reveal that thousands of people are hyping over days later
We’ve gone from cousins with a bond like sisters, an inkling princess rapper and her octoling DJ mermaid friend to a vibrant inkling Bollywood dancer, an octoling geisha and a BIG MAN… ta ray
@Bubble The direct DID mention a that there’s going to be a DLC, and it has Off the Hook’s silhouettes, so they might either beck be available after completing it, or we might just see them in the story I would really love to see what Marina’s galaxy hair looks like in the game
I absolutely love how Frye threw the mask to show how she's like a chaotic gremlin and you can hear the mask hit the ground, and in contrast, Shiver swiftly went from holding a mask to a hand fan while keeping a noble-ish pose to show she's kind of the opposite to frye, Shiver's properness to Frye's chaoticness is so much fun. And big man is big man, we all love him regardless
I like how they've gone with different music styles (and just styles in general) over the course of the games- Splat1 was a sort traditional bubbly pop and electronic music with a big Tokyo city like feel, Splat2 was a little electro, but also had rap and hip hop elements and a more New York city like feel, and now Splat3 has more traditional Japanese music combined with an almost slums like city, like places you might find in the south of the US
Such a fun trip down memory lane- Splatoon’s music has been the source of so many great memories, and I know for sure that Splatoon 3 will make many more!
From Pop Star Idol (Squid Sisters), to Modern Rap now it's Japanese Culture(Deep Cut). Seems like were embracing tradition with Chaos Theme on this really shows how far it has been
I think its more a chaotic agglomeration of cultures , like there's the odori japanese dance and so japanese like scenery but theres also instrument reminiscing of Brazilian samba carnival, south asia too ! I like to think since they are soo unique they are the fusion of Chinese/japanese vibes (shiver) and afro-brazillian vibes (Frye).
They're all certainly distinctive from each other in regards of... everything really I just want the squid sisters to stay relevant now that there's even more idols, but it seems they play a bigger role in the story so I'm optimistic about it Also, deep cut is cool as a group and all, but big man... he's the character ever
I didn't know that the Japanese and English versions had different names! Squid Sisters ↓ Shio colors Callie→Aori Marie→Hotaru Off the Hook ↓ Tentacles Marina→Iida Pearl→Hime Deep Cut ↓ Surimi Rengo Frye→Utsuho Shiver→Fuuka Big Man→Mantaro
Something I love about splatoon 3 is the splatfests actually draw me to the game! Before I heard a splatfest was coming up and was just like "oh yeah thats cool, Im gonna keep playing (insert other game) tho." but with splatoon 3 I'm like GIVE ME THAT BOMB ASS MUSIC RIGHT NOW AAAAAAAH
As the series goes am, I hope they never forget the Squid Sisters. I love Off the Hook as they made the big step up to S2, but I will never forget the moments I helped win the Finalfest for Marie & the devastation of losing to Chaos in both games.
Seeing how far these games have come when you skip from the squid sisters straight to deep cut it just absolutely amazing. Nintendo has mastered creating the most amazing atmosphere for festivals over the years
All of the Splatfests are amazing!!!! But I have to say that I am absolutely in love with Shiver, Frye, and Big Man's version of a Splatfest! It's chaotic and full of energy giving the new battle mechanic. But I love the new song Anarchy Rainbow because it seems like a song that brings everybody together and everyone sing together! It's also full of inspirations from different cultures which I love and appreciate it! I'm glad they went this route for chaos instead of typical heavy metal and rock chaos
They really getting more and more creative with the designs! I love Off The Hook but Deep Cut looks really cool as well! Their designs are so stylized. Especially Frye.
Off the hook will always be my favorite idol group. But I absolutely love shiver there is an elegance to her design that you don’t see in the other characters.
The new town square no longer looks safe to live in lol but it does look like a fun time I dream of an event where the last two duo's get a tour of the place by Deep Cut
I saw people complaining about Deep Cut earlier today on Reddit and I can't understand it in the slightest. Shiver and Frye are absolutely gorgeous, not to mention BIG MAN!!!! Genuinely the most creative designs we've had so far and I'm so hyped to see them in action in the game!!!
Fun fact about deep cut! A big group of sharks is called a shiver! And a big group of eels is called a frye! If you look at their masks you can see if right there!
I love all the idols. They all have distinct and awesome vibes. There's so many songs that span all 3 groups that I never cease to positively melt over~
For deep cut, the characters outfits have more personality compared to the squid sisters and off the hook, the music is great because it sounds like a festival and has a more traditional sound to it compared to the previous mainstream sort of genre in the other games. Can’t wait to see what they’re like once the game comes out!
I love how they manage to make them all so different style wise (the Squid Sisters being your typical idol maybe J-pop duo, Off The Hook giving a more modern vibe with Pop & Rap, and now Deep Cut giving fusion group vibes). Also this style reflects in all the songs and they are all such BANGERS even if it’s gibberish
Squid Sisters were J-Pop, Off the Hook was English pop, Deep Cut appears to be... their own thing (because chaos lol), but a fusion of traditional music with pop vibes and I love them
I think Deep cut is traditional Japanese music like the traditional festive musics
@@jinglejinglebell7844 its actually a mix of indian, brazilian, and japanese traditional music i think
SO TRUEEE
lol dude Pop & Rap is the 1980s, they went old school for them
I genuinely love how much they took on the chaos concept with Deep Cuts overall style
I wonder what they would've looked like if Order won....
@@ifcat2147
If order won
I imagine it would be like futuristic
Kinda like synth pop or techno ya know
@@ifcat2147 Honestly when I think of that scenario I just think about daft punk 😭
Ok i really love your pfp ;;;;;
they dont look that chaotic though.. just more traditional leading as opposed to a futuristic cyber type style
It's really amusing seeing people complaining about Frye's design the exact way people complained about Pearl's design when she was first revealed. Pearl is now super beloved, I'm sure the same will happen with Frye.
Frye is so original and unique plus she's a vampire squid probably and her inspo are soo cool ✨
I was always team Pearl, I find Fryes design to be a little odd
Not with that big ass forehead ☠️
i still don't like pearl, and i think frye is a bit odd
I love cute girls with huge foreheads B)
Deep Cut's Splatfest music is the best IMO, it really sounds like a festival
sounds like a celebration than a splatfest song
@@Dolquin sounds like a fest
@@maple7616 a splat fest
Yeah, pretty much their song is a mix of Japanese summer festival and Brazilian carneval music, so it just has this overall chaotic, fun vibe.
ikr! i get chills every time i listen to it
Everyone says Frye’s forehead being that big looks dumb but idk? I actually feel it suits her and I love her design so much
At first I thought it looked a little weird but now she’s starting to grow on me
@@anonymousperidot7446 Same, actually...
Yeah
they managed to make some of pearl's design choices actually good
To be fair, I think all three idols fulfill a trend of media in Japan. With Frye, the typical "Mo'" Look. With Shiver, the Fox Eye look. And finally with Big Man, the classical Mascot look, like Kumamon.
Although, this doesn't mean that Big Man is a costume. He just... sorta resembles one.
its weird how this all went from an original game idea about tofu blocks shooting ink, into this community, this masterpiece :D

Deep cut feels like they're unapologetically themselves, not caring about what the corporate world wants. Fuck the rich, they're making a Japanese, Indian, Brazilian esque song and it's gonna be awesome
Also their styles, gosh I want it
Frye gives me very Brazilian energy mixed with the Japanese culture and I love her so much
Frye literally has Arabian pants on tho..
Ya ya ya cool I do love Frye for that also I’m so sad we never get see Callie again after this game🥺
Can’t wait for big shots. They’re gonna be so fun
@@RoobyRockDoll that's so cool! I love how this group has these kind of amazing clothes
I also love how ambiguous Frye and Shiver's appearances are, in the way that they don't look fully Inkling or fully Octoling. Like after the events of Octo Expansion, Octoling and Inklings cultures, styles, and appearances all kinda fused together like a true melting pot
If I hadn't read the wiki I wouldn't have known that Shiver was an Octoling, she looks very neutral just like Frye, that makes them special in my opinion
I've read some things that frye is supposed to be a vampire squid.
shiver doesn't seem to have the eye markings of either inklings or octolings. they honestly hit an uncanny valley, with the red blushing and lack of eye markings. the only thing signifying that they aren't human is their hair.
They're chaotic in literally every way possible I LOVE IT SO MUCH bc like WHAT ARE THEY 😭
Shiver is obviously an octoling. Suction cups on her hair, octoling teeth, no nose bride thing and rounded ears.

It’s leaning more towards Thai with how she dances. At least that’s how I see it. The pants and top, her ears, the makeup. Very Thai looking.
I think she’s a vampire squid, explaining the big head.
I’m gonna call it, the final splatfest for 3 is going to be a against all the idols. Squid sister vs. off the hook vs. deep cuts.
I’ve been thinking it since the reveal trailer dropped amd all the numbers just add up, which is 3.
True
That does make me realize that, in the lore of the game, a splatfest is partially an excuse to officiate that one thing is better than another, so if such a splatfest happens, by the end of it, one group is going to be considered the best of them all. That’s gonna be a tough choice.
THAT WOULD BE SO COOL, I’m going team Off the Hook if these new ones don’t steal my #1 spot again
Makes a little sense, but then Shiver & Frye would be saying that their group's not the best
@@TuxPeng or a cameo on the broadcast, like off the hook hacking into the broadcast like they do in octo expansion, and squid sisters busting into the studio brute force or smth idk 💀 and they all have their own teams
what amazes me is how the scale gets bigger as the games do. the first idol introduction was a casual “here’s the idol group, look at them sing” that wasn’t touched on for more than some seconds with overall basic visuals. by splatoon 2, idols were known, and the next reveal served as an introduction to the change in musical style and personality that the game had. and now, after 2 huge successes, splatoon 3 has the ball fully rolling with this amazing reveal that thousands of people are hyping over days later
Amazing the differences between Splatoon 1 and currently Splatoon 3. We have come a long way boys!
I shall say Pearls forehead is a lot smaller compared to Frye's
I guess us Pearl fans are finally getting justice? At the expense of another idol?
I sympathize with Frye fans as a Pearl fan.
🦲
All the energetic female idols past Splatoon 2 have mountain sized foreheads and they’re getting bigger by the second
@@gingerrrrr_rat In Splatoon 5 their forehead becomes the screen for a projector that shows the news.

All these years have led up to the best idol now being able to perform next month. The one and only BIG MAN
YES THE NEW SHREK IS HERE
I actually loved Frye’s design when she was first revealed, I was super sad when everyone hated her, but thankfully most people love her now :)
We’ve gone from cousins with a bond like sisters, an inkling princess rapper and her octoling DJ mermaid friend to a vibrant inkling Bollywood dancer, an octoling geisha and a BIG MAN… ta ray
“don’t get cooked, stay off the hook” will forever be iconic to me
4:24
Look at him... not a thought behind those eyes... I love him
So majestic
There *are* thoughts. Wholesome ❤️☺️
For a real ray, the eyes would be on the other side of the body. Hate to say it, but that could be his nose 😭
@@gingergamer8204 Somehow, that makes it even better.
tbh I kind of miss the hyper pop sound of the previous two but it's cool that they decided to take a new direction with the music
Me too, but then again, you never know
@@megansutton9699 true
@Bubble The direct DID mention a that there’s going to be a DLC, and it has Off the Hook’s silhouettes, so they might either beck be available after completing it, or we might just see them in the story
I would really love to see what Marina’s galaxy hair looks like in the game
Who knows what would've happend if team order won
@@Moon_5962 We probably would’ve got a Daft Punk-esque band or maybe we would’ve got DedF1sh as an idol
I absolutely love how Frye threw the mask to show how she's like a chaotic gremlin and you can hear the mask hit the ground, and in contrast, Shiver swiftly went from holding a mask to a hand fan while keeping a noble-ish pose to show she's kind of the opposite to frye, Shiver's properness to Frye's chaoticness is so much fun. And big man is big man, we all love him regardless
The last singers had my blood pumping and vibe meter 🤩.
3:57 the drop for this song keeps bringing me to tears i love it so much 😭
When Pearl said: "blloobllbblloooplbbppoolp" That hit different
Imagine we could play as a Manta Ray species
Imagine if the DLC is based off of that-
Splatoon 3: Ray Expansion
Or sharklings:D
@@Alchemyyyyyy like the ones shiver mentions?
No ink
I like how they've gone with different music styles (and just styles in general) over the course of the games- Splat1 was a sort traditional bubbly pop and electronic music with a big Tokyo city like feel, Splat2 was a little electro, but also had rap and hip hop elements and a more New York city like feel, and now Splat3 has more traditional Japanese music combined with an almost slums like city, like places you might find in the south of the US
Such a fun trip down memory lane- Splatoon’s music has been the source of so many great memories, and I know for sure that Splatoon 3 will make many more!
throwback to when i would watch off the hook videos with subs and actually thought the translations were real 💀
From Pop Star Idol (Squid Sisters), to Modern Rap now it's Japanese Culture(Deep Cut). Seems like were embracing tradition with Chaos Theme on this really shows how far it has been
I think its more a chaotic agglomeration of cultures , like there's the odori japanese dance and so japanese like scenery but theres also instrument reminiscing of Brazilian samba carnival, south asia too ! I like to think since they are soo unique they are the fusion of Chinese/japanese vibes (shiver) and afro-brazillian vibes (Frye).
Pearl and Marina's introduction was so hype. I remember seeing the internet flooded with posts about them.
They're all certainly distinctive from each other in regards of... everything really
I just want the squid sisters to stay relevant now that there's even more idols, but it seems they play a bigger role in the story so I'm optimistic about it
Also, deep cut is cool as a group and all, but big man... he's the character ever
Big man is the new shreck
Big man is life
I wish I could be called Big Man.
@@aymuhspunj consider your wish granted, Big Man
I didn't know that the Japanese and English versions had different names!
Squid Sisters

I like how theres always a small cute and hyper one and a tall mature and chill one
The animation quality just gets better each time it’s so full of life now
the new idols look sick, easily my favorite ones and damn the animation quality increased so much over the years.
2:53 omg the mask to fan transition is so cool-
Also stan shiver
You can really see how much the game has visually improved when you compare the squid sisters introduction to the deep cut introduction
I'm sorry but I love deep cut I think they might be my new favorite idols
I love Shiver already. There’s something about her that really gets to me. She gets my vote, although Big Man is definitely quite the contender.
Something I love about splatoon 3 is the splatfests actually draw me to the game! Before I heard a splatfest was coming up and was just like "oh yeah thats cool, Im gonna keep playing (insert other game) tho." but with splatoon 3 I'm like GIVE ME THAT BOMB ASS MUSIC RIGHT NOW AAAAAAAH
I was literally cheering for Big Man when he was revealed, might actually buy this game
Same here
As the series goes am, I hope they never forget the Squid Sisters. I love Off the Hook as they made the big step up to S2, but I will never forget the moments I helped win the Finalfest for Marie & the devastation of losing to Chaos in both games.
They really did improve with the animation through 2016-2022, I really love the fact Nintendo mixed different kind of culture into the game.
I love the way how Shiver just makes her mask a fan fast-
I love how Deep Cut, while still having the two girl idols, also has a male idol.
seeing the difference in quality between 1 and 2 really shows how far the games have come
Idc how ‘unique’ the other idols are. Squid sisters will always have a very special place in my heart
Seeing how far these games have come when you skip from the squid sisters straight to deep cut it just absolutely amazing. Nintendo has mastered creating the most amazing atmosphere for festivals over the years
Seeing Big Man so happy just warms my heart
You can see one of the inkling doing the Macarena in the video
WHERE WHERE
Oh Pearl has a challenger now for world biggest forehead
I love the new idols I like Nintendo stretching the idea of what and inkling or octo long could look like
Yeah, Rindude I agree.
My attachment to Off the hook is shocking lmaoo, but I can't wait to discover the new idols
ok but can we appreciate how much better the animation got in general? the body movements, the lip syncing, etc!
All of the Splatfests are amazing!!!! But I have to say that I am absolutely in love with Shiver, Frye, and Big Man's version of a Splatfest! It's chaotic and full of energy giving the new battle mechanic. But I love the new song Anarchy Rainbow because it seems like a song that brings everybody together and everyone sing together! It's also full of inspirations from different cultures which I love and appreciate it! I'm glad they went this route for chaos instead of typical heavy metal and rock chaos
deep cuts. thats it. they are all beautiful AND THE SONG SLAPS
I like how the dancing animations have clearly been improving over time.
They really getting more and more creative with the designs! I love Off The Hook but Deep Cut looks really cool as well! Their designs are so stylized. Especially Frye.
Off the hook will always be my favorite idol group. But I absolutely love shiver there is an elegance to her design that you don’t see in the other characters.
The last presentation was impressive
I love Deep Cut! Their designs are so cool! 💖💖💖
I remember the reveal- i was so shook on splat 3’s because i actually got to see it in real time- 😭
The new town square no longer looks safe to live in lol but it does look like a fun time
I dream of an event where the last two duo's get a tour of the place by Deep Cut
Man we’ve come a long way from that initial squid sisters reveal
In the comment section for the direct the "its just dlc theres nothing new" commenters have arrived
I'll make a final video next week tackling that subject.
@@Snorth93 ok ill make sure to watch it
it honestly looks very distant from the 2 previous ones
@@venus2393 agreed
@@venus2393 ikr, what more could they want
Big man and his back ups probably got the best reveal in my opinion
I saw people complaining about Deep Cut earlier today on Reddit and I can't understand it in the slightest. Shiver and Frye are absolutely gorgeous, not to mention BIG MAN!!!! Genuinely the most creative designs we've had so far and I'm so hyped to see them in action in the game!!!
I love that Big Man is just kinda standing around yet his presence is still so important
Fun fact about deep cut! A big group of sharks is called a shiver! And a big group of eels is called a frye! If you look at their masks you can see if right there!
2:53 this part hurts my brain. Did that mask turn into a fan, or did Shiver yeet her mask super fast?
It's her fan. It's a bit tricky to see the fan change around though.
I’m more focussed on her weird face
The music reminds me a lot of Brazil and its carnivals! I love that splatfests have that chaotic energy of a carnival
I love how you can hear Pearl's rapping
It's amazing seeing how much the cutscenes have improved from 1
I love all the idols. They all have distinct and awesome vibes. There's so many songs that span all 3 groups that I never cease to positively melt over~
For deep cut, the characters outfits have more personality compared to the squid sisters and off the hook, the music is great because it sounds like a festival and has a more traditional sound to it compared to the previous mainstream sort of genre in the other games. Can’t wait to see what they’re like once the game comes out!
the hub rly feels alive this time around; I swear it's like 4 times as big as the one in 2, I love it
