5	!!Series as a whole
6	* CrossDressingVoices: Yuki Tsujii is the voice behind all of the playable Inklings and Octolings, which means he voices not only the boys, but the girls, as well.
7	* {{Defictionalization}}: Editmode's King Of Games brand has a [[https://shop.editmode.jp/c/29 clothing line]] that mimics gear found in the games.
8	* FollowTheLeader: The series has inspired Creator/{{Square Enix}}'s ''VideoGame/{{Foamstars}}''. Though that game is at least slightly different since it uses foam, which changes the collision of the surrounding terrain, the same concept of "shoot substance and swim/surf quickly through substance" remains, and ''Foamstars'' is especially transparent about its LimitBreak inspiration; many ''Splatoon'' fans have noticed that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD_XuyEgfOY the Foamstars trailer]] has what [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2jcHG_QA98 strongly resemble]] copies of Baller, Inkstrike, and Splashdown.
9	* HeAlsoDid:
10	** Interestingly, ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'' and ''VideoGame/Splatoon2''[='=]s director was Yusuke Amano, who right before directed the controversial ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2'', suffice to say, they proved to be unanimously much better received than that game did.
11	** Within Nintendo, EPD Production Group no. 5 (the team that works on ''Splatoon'') is also the one that handles ''Franchise/AnimalCrossing''.

13	!!Manga
14	* ActingForTwo: Creator/MikakoKomatsu voices both Goggles and Knit Cap in the motion comic.
15	* {{Defictionalization}}: Certain manga-only outfits, such as the Sennyu Suit and Milky Eminence Jacket, were temporarily made into actual gear the player could use.
16	* NoExportForYou:
17	** Averted with the manga, as it has been translated and released outside of Japan.
18	** Played straight with the motion comic, as there is currently no English dub or official subbed version.
19	* PopCultureUrbanLegends: Due to a [[LostInTranslation mistranslation]], most international fans and news outlets believed that ''Splatoon'' would be receiving an AnimatedAdaptation in August 2017. When it turned out to just be a two-episode MotionComic adaptation of the manga's first few chapters, fans either thought that [=CoroCoro=] had deliberately lied about the nature of the series or were convinced that it was testing fan reception for a "real" adaptation.
20	* SeriesHiatus: The comic went on hiatus from December 2021 to August 2022, returning that September under [[NewSeasonNewName the new title]] ''Splatoon: Bankara!''
