Maybe Octolings will be less oblivious XD

Here's the localization changes! https://www.reddit.com/r/splatoon/comments/c5t6d7/localization_changes_in_the_chaos_vs_order_final/

Hmm, according to the artbooks, jellyfish in Inkopolis operate via Hive Mind and act as the government, also sponsoring turf wars. The final Splatfest shift station stage takes place in the aftermath of the NILS Statue fight. The NILS Statue wreckage is still there, and there are Jellyfish there inspecting it. Maybe that's how stuff will change for game 3.

Nintendo of Japan has started posting tweets outlining why each character is on the team they are for the Final Fest, and Tartar is no longer in the NILS statue's eye, but his papers are scattered around the ocean.

Dead people (well, dead AI constructs) don't get to cameo. Because, like. They're dead.

Well, Being an AI, it's not impossible that there's a backup of Tartar somewhere. Although hopefully one that didn't end up getting corrupted like the first one did.

I just had one of the worst losing streaks of my entire splat career. It was enough to knock my N-ZAP '89 down from 15 to 6.5. Even remembering the 40% rule didn't work. I'm not happy.

The next time I get in a game and the entire team gets wiped right at the start, I'm genuinely considering just quitting out of the match right there and taking the ragequit timer like a big boy. I'm not playing with people who don't know how to play.

Callie.

"I might be a pop star, but even I want to pop off every now and then!" She can be a handful for Marie with her carefree and adventurous attitude, but it's that same free spirit that qualifies her to be a resident of the world of Chaos.

Marie

"Someone around here has to keep it together…" Even though Callie's free spirit has been a good influence on her, Marie still like things to be nice & neat. Even a bit of idle chit-chat needs a solid one-liner to stitch things up, which is why she's Team Order.

Sheldon

'Can I just try it out?" As long as there is a Turf War battle in this world, it is good if you make a weapon and live among them. What else do you need? Weapon love is constant regardless of the world ...

Spike

"There is a story that you can capture the world in seconds, right?" Is the hand who manipulates the PC in the cafe already beginning to manipulate the world? It uses the order of the world cleverly, but its spirit is chaos by any means.

Official translations:

Spyke:

"Oi, mate. You really fink this festival's gunna decide the fate of the world, then?" You’ve seen him in the café, fingers dancing across the keyboard of his laptop. Could those same fingers be pulling the strings of society? He may have found a way to exploit the peaceful order of Inkopolis, but make no mistake–at his core, Spyke is an agent of Chaos.

Sheldon:

"Go on! Give it a shot!" So long as the Turf War battles rage on, so too will Sheldon dedicate his life to crafting ink-based weaponry. This horseshoe crab cares not for the fate of Inkopolis…so long as he can continue to invent new ways to splat.

Murch:

"This new gear I got'll blow your fins off, for reals!" One quick glance into Murch’s eye will tell you where his loyalties lie. This driven street urchin has laser focus and never rests on his laurels. Though he follows in the footsteps of an agent of chaos, he is, without question, ready to take your Order.

Sheldon's Japanese profile read something like "Neutrality. My role lies in permitting others to test my creations. As long as there’s a turf war being waged in this world, I’ll continue to make weapons. Ah, living surrounded by the fruits of my research…that’s the life for me. No matter what state our world is in, society’s love of weapons will never change.”

Mr. Grizz

"Don't be so worried. The sea answers all questions." As far as Mr. Grizz is concerned, the shallow affairs of Inkopolis are insignificant next to the depth of the seven seas. No matter what fate may await the world, the sea watches silently, biding its time.

So in that case if he starts to get uppity all we need to do is ram him with the Salmon Run boat to get him to calm down?

The last time I saw "biding their time" was like, the end of Deltora Quest which ends bittersweetly on mention that the main antagonist, who is essentially is a God of Evil, cannot ever be defeated and that sometime in the future the world will be at his mercy again, because 1000 years is but a blink of an eye and he can wait, biding his time.

What I'm saying is that Grizz is definitely some sort of Eldritch entity.

Annie:

"Umm... Gear abilities are cool and stuff...I guess." Items stocked in her online shop provide a flair of eccentricity not available in standard gear. Squidkids everywhere are constantly refreshing their phones for a chance to snag her latest release.

Crusty Sean and Bisk:

Their shared love for footwear make it natural that they’d end up on the same side. When these neighbors get caught up in shoe talk, it can last until sunup. Is THAT why the lines for Sean’s food truck are so long?

Jelonzo:

"Forsooth, but fashion flourishes or fails on its fundamentals." Though a proponent of the idea that fashion is a form of freedom, Jelfonzo is also firm that context is king. One look in his watery eyes confirms his constant commitment to couture.

The Salmonids:

Their single-minded drive to get back to their spawning grounds COULD be seen as orderly…if you squint. But who are we kidding? The frenzied, indiscriminate way they stampede over everyone and everything in the way of that goal is chaos to a T.
