It's been a while but I uploaded a new main video!
It's the second episode in my Lore Bits series, where I uncover interesting info only accessible through more obscure sources like dev interviews and art book content
A thing I like to make besides comics is custom cassettes, sometimes! I made the Omega-3 tape for a friend a while back, but I JUST now got around to making the Dedf1sh one recently after meaning to for A Goddamn Minute
The Acht tape is a continuous mix @ardnin made and posted to Youtube, I've been in love with it for ages and if you're into weird Splatoon music you ought to give it a listen here.
The best way to listen to cassettes is in low quality, of course, so here's a short video of the Dedf1sh mix through my oldass walkman and my newass headphones.
Bahnschrift: "It’s just so nice and smooth. It looks so clean. And there’s like four variants for all your condensed/bolded needs! It’s wonderful, a nice good font"
i noticed that a couple of the bosses have multi-phase tracks, so i edited ΘctΘpticΘn so that each phase has one loop each. enjoy funny panopticon boss
edit: thanks to @ardnin for ripping the OST from the game. they have a drive that has the whole game as FLACs here

youve been promised this post and i shall deliver. others may have done this before me but im having fun so WHY NOT. thanks @mettaglam for helping me. the audios im inserting here are from this collection by @ardnin
this will probz be longer (and contain spoilers) so im putting a cut here
lets start with my favorite, which ive already pointed out here
the onward! motif
marina agitando:
pinging marciale:
asynchronous rhondo:
next up weve got some off the hook songs!
acid hues in origin of order
pinging marciale singing fly octo fly
asynchronous rhondo singing ebb n flow
and then weve got the tracks that're remixes of old music!
color pulse -> leaving with pearl and the tune that plays when u enter the elevator after defeating order
#0 shell -> #0.1 style
#12 awake -> #12.2 awakened and the slightly different version that plays before it
hi guys! im back. i went tokyo for a few days. got back at 7 this morning after taking an overnight 7 hour bus ride.... that i did not sleep on bc i cant sleep in moving vehicles. this will be something closer to a proper blog post i guess. splatoon related convention? experience below
i've kept my mouth shut about my plans to go because its not as well known on the english side of the fanbase and i didnt wanna make people too jealous sorry LOL , but i went to splaket 22! it's an unofficial, splatoon-only doujinshi market/artists alley. this was my first convention-sort-of event ive been to since i was... in high school. i also dont really get to meet many other hardcore splatoon fans irl. i was nervous about it because i don't know a whole lot of people on the JP side nor do i have a lot of confidence in my japanese speaking/listening, but in the end it was SUPER fun. i wish i couldve talked a bit more to the artists i did encounter to comment on what i liked about their works but. Skill Issue
very few non-japanese people at this event of course but one of the only english speakers i saw i called out to bc they were wearing a shirt with this exact image printed on it
no video and no photos outside of designated areas were allowed so i got like. zero pics of my own. but there was a lot of cosplayers i saw!
oh and here's the Loot Haul. a few doujin, a clear file, stickers, microfiber cloth and a keychain. im surprised at how little i got, i think i shouldve gone a bit crazier with it
the one with Tao Blu and oonie in the top left (by sachikazerick) I came across by chance and bought because it was cute, featured splatband characters, and also because it all in some familiar inkling language (the last point of which i told the artist as i was buying)
when i finally got home and saw the back credits...
SMALL FUCKIN WORLD LOL (i tweeted at the artist afterwards to let him know i came by the table and to thank him for using me and my friend's inkling language fonts!) though truly, i think ardnin deserved the credit more rather than me since he made most of those fonts! ah well, still cool to see more and more fan works using deciphered inkling language.
top middle book is a story with some salmonid characters that i havent read yet but im looking forward to it, the art is lovely.
top right one was the first thing i bought. the artist is rk_splaworks, whose art i love, and we've been mutuals for a few years and have talked a bit here and there! i was so fucking nervous to meet them in person since my japanese sucks LMAO but they were happy to meet me too and we got a selfie together yippy <3 also havent read their doujin Yet since ill have to rub all my brain cells together and huddle over the dictionary, but i want their oc lore
ok that's all i'll say, next splaket is...june 22. very soon....im already thinking ill. go again. yknow. while im still in japan and all that. i guess ill have to study harder on my jp in the meantime teehee
...i doubt it, but in the off chance anyone following me is going to the next splaket in june lemme know!
