History Headscratchers / Splatoon2

** And on that note, why does Marie not care that her cousin has mysteriously vanished again? She spent the entire story mode looking for Callie, she clearly cares about her a lot and was worried half to death (you can hear the emotion in her voice when she sings in "Tidal Rush")... and then, just as soon as Callie is freed from [[spoiler:DJ Octavio's brainwashing]], Marie ''lets Callie go off on her own again'' [[OutOfCharacterMoment and brushes it off with an off-hand remark along the lines of "eh, whaddya gonna do?"]] At least supplementary materials confirm they're still together.

* So why the hell doesn't [[spoiler:Callie appear anywhere in Octo Canyon after beating it? (And no, the rematch with Octavio isn't an excuse; both he and the Great Zapfish are around after this) Why did they even bother writing Squid Sister Stories with all that buildup only to have it not mean anything in the end? How hard is it to patch her into it at some point later? It makes it look like they just tricked and lied to us about the whole story.]]

** Agent 3 was at least 14 ''during'' Splatoon 1. With Splatoon 2 happening two years later, Agent 3 has likely gotten older.

* Okay, how old even is Agent 4? I remember an interview saying that the Splatoon 2 inklings are around 14 like their predecessors, according to the characters page here Agent 4 two years older than Agent 3 was in Splatoon 1 (which would place them at around 16), and THEN the usually-reliable Splatoon wiki says Agent 4 is 'At least 18'.

** There's a grate on the ceiling. Inkling patrons could get through it in squid form- maybe Spyke and the jellyfish have a similar way to get through it.

** The windows double as doors? Hidden entrances? Or maybe we should just remember the MST3KMantra.

* How did Spyke and those Jellyfish get into that café, and how do they intend to leave? There are no visible exits, and every wall is visible from the windows. (Unless he's trying to look up a way to get out from his laptop.)

** Why even ask this question when the game wasn't even out yet? [[spoiler:More seriously, it turns out that she was just being brainwashed by Octavio]].

** This will surely be answered in the game.

*** Pants weren't a gear item in the first game, and there's no indication that they are in this one. Any gear that covers the legs is attached to either shirts or shoes. As for hairstyles, they are a customization option alongside skin and eye color.

** He was seen watching the Off the Hook concert in the July 6 Direct. He may just not be in business anymore. You can also find him working a music booth in Inkopolis Square as well, between the Central Tower and the Recording Room.

** They're too busy trying not to die from blue shells in MarioKart8

*** The gear shops are all run by new characters; Shelldon is the only returning shopkeeper who's kept his job. It's possible Annie, Moe, and Jelonzo didn't move from Inkopolis to Inkopolis Square. If they did, they probably just found other work.

* So... What's up with Callie? [[spoiler: The game may not be out yet but let's not mince words. She's definitely on the Octarian's side at this point what with all the hints shown off in the current single player footage. But I can't help but ask... why is she with the Octarians? Did she go on her own will? Did Octavio kidnap her (we know he escaped from the snow globe somehow)? Was she brainwashed by Octavio with his music? I'm sorry, I just can't help but question it.]]

* What exactly does Grizzco Industries want the salmon eggs for?

* If Crusty Sean is running an ice cream stand, then how and where are you going to get your shoes now?

** In the Squid Sisters Stories, it's implied that the Octarians re-kidnapped the Great Zapfish. The Inklings, however, appear to have less energy and must find alternative ways (i.e. the solar panels on Crusty Sean's van).

* Octo Valley was said to be in an energy crisis, at the emergency level, in the first ''Splatoon''. Looks like they're not only doing fine, there seems to be more energy-intensive regions now. What's the problem?

* Why does Marie not look for Agent 3 to help with the search for Callie, CPT Cuttlefish, the Great Zapfish, and Octavio?
