who is devilfish?? (in floyd's stitch voicelines) is it lilia? i thought lilia was flapjack octopus??

You're absolutely correct, it is Lilia. Floyd says Mendako-chan (メンダコちゃん) in JP. I have a short answer and a long answer for you. Short Answer: Devilfish is what the EN game uses. Long Answer: The Japanese flapjack octopus has the scientific name Opisthoteuthis depressa. Not only is it called the "Japanese flapjack octopus," but it can also be called the "Japanese pancake devilfish." There are 14 total flapjack octopus species in the Opisthoteuthis genus which are apparently called "flapjack devilfishes" collectively. Lastly, it seems that devilfish may be an outdated term for octopus (which could also hint at Lilia's age). One thing to note is that "Flapjack Octopus" was the fan-translated version of Floyd's nickname for Lilia. While it isn't wrong, it's just not what the EN game decided to go with. And although some of EN's choices are... questionable, this one, at least, is still true to the original name. I'll also be trying to incorporate more "canon" terms into my translations (instead of being stubborn) from now on as well.

im sad that kemono friends takes a lot less risks with its animals nowadays...the closest we've gotten to them branching out lately has been the pancake devilfish and coelacanth and even then they're very popular sea creatures...we don't even have a groundhog

#squidspeak!#they need to put ugly as hell animals in again!!!!!#kmfr

Scary outfit Jade Personal Story Translation Part 2

Jade Scary Outfit Part 2

Would you please teach me?

Where the 2nd years all talk about the Halloween traditions back at their places.

Classroom

Jade: Would you mind teaching me about the many different ways you all celebrate Halloween?

Riddle: ...Halloween, huh.

Riddle: In my hometown, typically young children would gather in the plaza and hold a 'Fun Party.'

Jamil: Why do you sound so detached?

Riddle: That's because I've only ever attended it once. So I can't speak much about it.

Riddle: The one thing that left an impression on me was the 'Apple Bobbing.'

Floyd: Goldfish-chan, what's that...Apple....whatchamacallit? That sure sounds real tasty~

Riddle: It's a traditional game that is played in the Rose Kingdom.

Riddle: You fill a large tub with water, and some apples will be tossed in, floating on the surface, which you have to try and catch with your mouth. Of course, you can't use your hands for this.

Jade: That... certainly sounds like a game to be played on the surface.

Azul: Indeed, the moment one lets go of the apple under the sea, it would immediately try to rise to the surface.

Jade: I suppose chasing after the apple could be a game in itself.

Floyd: That actually sounds real interestin'~

Silver: However... is it even possible to catch an apple with one's mouth?

Riddle: They normally use smaller apples rather than the regular ones... but even then it can be difficult.

Jade: Children with bigger physique would have the better advantage in trying to capture the apple in their mouth.

Riddle: Certainly, one would need good jaw strength to match the size of their mouth as well.

Ruggie: In this school, Jade and Floyd definitely have the advantage here.

Ruggie: They're dang huge. With sharp teeth to boot.

Jade: Fufufu, I wonder about that. I would be too shy to open my mouth so wide with people staring at me...

Jade: And I just may not be able to catch the apple in time while bumbling around...

Floyd: I mean, how do ya even decide on who wins in this kinda game?

Riddle: According to our rules, I think the one who manages to catch an apple the quickest would be considered the winner.

Riddle: There are regions in the Land of Pyroxene that play this game as well.

Riddle: Cater said that in his hometown, the winner was decided by who got the most number of apples.

Riddle: I was never able to grasp the technique, and would end up drenched from head to toe...

Riddle: Thinking back on it now though, I suppose the result was never the important part.

Riddle: Having fun, laughing at each other as we all struggle to catch that apple... I think such joys are important.

Jade: Certainly, to be able to see Riddle-san desperately chasing after an apple with his mouth wide open would be quite amus-

Jade: -I mean, would be worth seeing, yes.

Riddle: Just what were you trying to imply...

Kalim: I get what you were trying to say Riddle! It's not about winning or losing, it's all about whether you had fun or not!

Riddle: Yes... that's right.

Kalim: It's kinda different from the Rose Kingdom, the Halloween over at our Land of Hot Sands is real fun too!

Jade: Oh? Does the Land of Hot Sands have it's own peculiar recreational activity as well?

Kalim: Nope! When you say Halloween in the Land of Hot Sands, we mean 'Feast'!

Kalim: That's because in our homeland, to spend time together as we enjoy a splendid feast is what we consider to be the most fun!

Kalim: That's why, when Halloween comes around, the tables are almost overflowing with all kinds of delicacies!

Jamil: We do this so the ghosts that come back can also eat to their heart's content.

Jamil: Sweet, salty spicy... from small appetizers to large platters, we prepare a wide variety of dishes.

Jamil: When Halloween is close, the kitchens are always on full overdrive from the meal prepping alone.

Jade: Someday I would love to feast my eyes on such a sumptuous dining table myself... Are there any staple dishes for the tradition?

Kalim: The star of the Halloween Feast... it's definitely gotta be that dish.

Kalim: What was it again? That dish we bake with vegetables and sauce...

Jamil: Who knows?

Kalim: Ah, your face tells me you know it. C'mon, it's that one! The one with potatoes, eggplants and tomatoes!!

Jade: Is it something like... a lasagna that had the pasta replaced with vegetables instead?

Kalim: Ahh that's actually pretty close to it. It's super delicious when freshly baked.

Azul: I see, it certainly sounds like a dish that would be popular with people who prefer a healthy diet.

Jade: Jamil-san, would you mind telling us the name of the dish?

Jamil: Ha... It's a local specialty called 'Moussaka.'

Kalim: Yeah that! That's the one!

Kalim: When we were younger, even if there was no banquet or feast going on, I'd still ask Jamil to cook it for me time to time!

Jamil: It was quite the mess back then... my parents, and even the other servants would always scold me, telling me that children shouldn't handle fire by themselves.

Kalim: Eh!? That happened??

Jamil: We were still in elementary school after all.

Jamil: It's not like I was already great at cooking from that age... It would've been a big problem if I accidentally set a fire.

Jamil: I can now understand why my parents and the people around me used to get angry whenever I tried.

Kalim: Oof... I'm really sorry about that.

Kalim: But the moussaka you cooked back then was also super delicious! I can still remember the taste...

Kalim: Talking about it got me hankering for it again. Jamil, you gotta make it for me soon!

Azul: I would like to request it as well. It may be a good addition to the Mostro Lounge menu....

Jamil: No.

Kalim: Aww, don't say that Jamil~

Jamil: Moussaka is a very time-consuming dish that needs a lot of ingredients to make, it even needs two kinds of sauces to be prepared for it

Jamil: I don't believe such a dish is a good fit for a cafe.

Jade: From the sounds of it, it seems to be a dish that requires an oven to bake it.

Jade: The oven back at the Lounge isn't quite big... it would be quite difficult to bake enough of it.

Azul: I'm sure there are a number of ways to increase the turnover rate if you cook it all in one big platter.

Ruggie: Octanivelle's the same as ever.

Jade: Fufu... I suppose we can have a nice, long discussion about this once I have tried Jamil's cooking myself.

Jamil: Wait, I never said that I would make it- ...sigh...

Silver: *snore*

Jamil: See, you've bored Silver to sleep while you were hyped up about making profits.

Jade: Oh my, this won't do. My apologies for derailing the conversation.

Jade: Excuse me for a moment, Silver-san, Would you please wake up?

Silver: ...ha! I apologize. You want to know the traditions of Halloween at the Valley of Thorns, was it.

Jade: Yes, if you would please.

Silver: Halloween... all I can remember is my fath- I mean, Lilia-senpai going all out on dressing up for the occasion.

Riddle: As I recall, both of you are from the same province.

Jade: I see, so even the people from the Valley of Thorns would have costumes... It seems to be a standard custom no matter where you are from on the surface.

Silver: Do merfolk not have costumes?

Jade: We do not have a habit of wearing clothes in the first place.

Jade: But it is precisely because of that fact that I find wearing the many different kind of clothes from the surface quite interesting. Silver: As a matter of fact, it is quite difficult to say that dressing up was a fun memory... I shudder even now when I recall it.

Floyd: Ehh~ Wasn't pancake devilfish-chan even smaller back then?

Silver: Oh, there is not much of a change in terms of appearance, however...

Silver: It was the one and only Halloween that I had seen Lilia-senpai in such a fearsome visage....

Jade: My, that does sound very curious indeed, since he prides himself on being quite cute, and it's hard to disagree.

Silver: Lilia-senpai's threatening demeanor when dressed up like that...

Silver: Sebek who had witnessed the horror with me was also trembling in fear...

Silver: The two of us were so afraid to fall asleep that we promised to stay up all night together.

Jade: Oh my, if I were to be exposed to such horror, I would surely let out a loud scream myself...

Floyd: Ehh~ What the heck, I wanna see that too~ We've been together since the day we were born and I haven't got 'ta see that even once!

Ruggie: So~? Did you both end up greetin' the dawn with tears?

Silver: No, I ended up falling asleep at some point.

Riddle: As I thought...

Silver: Apparently, Sebek had to hold off on going to the toilet the whole night, so the next morning he was angry at me and called me a traitor.

Ruggie: Wow~ Even Sebek had such a cute side to him huh.

Jamil: Well then Ruggie, how is Halloween over at your place?

Ruggie: Me? I don't think our Halloween over at the slums would make much of a reference for ya.

Jade: Now now, I find any and every aspect of culture on the surface to be interesting, so please do enlighten me.

Ruggie: Well, I don't mind tellin' ya, but don't go gettin' all weirded out after hearin' it...

Ruggie: "Trick or Treat" is where ya get pranked if ye don't hand out the candy yeah?

Ruggie: But back at my place, it ain't anythin' as cute as that.

Ruggie: If candy isn't handed over, you'd be marked until ye do... it's a 24 hour candy collectin' endurance event! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wow that was long, really long, I almost died but I did it for y’all ;-; Note: Jamil and Kalim actually call the dish “Munazzara” but I believe that is another term for ‘Moussaka’ in jpn, I changed it so it’s easier to place. Part 1 Part 3

now this info could be Wildly incorrect (the source given is in japanese, which i cannot read) but the splatoon wiki for ABXY says that the green pal is a flapjack octopus. this wouldnt have sent off alarms in my brain except a) wheres the suction cups and b) green???? nintendo explain

Yeah, technically Ryan’s a Opisthoteuthis depressa - Japanese Pancake Devilfish, specifically, but it’s the same genus as the flapjack octopus, Opisthoteuthis californiana. O. depressa is found only off the coast of Japan, so that’s a fun Japanese touch haha. Though O. californiana has a larger distribution which also includes Japanese waters

Ryan’s fine re: suction cups though ‘cause look

Suction cups aren’t visible from the topside really; you can see some on the parts where its leggies are curled up a bit but that kind of detail doesn’t belong on the splatband artstyle. If it’s the inconsistency with regular Octolings that bother you, well, Ryan is more correct so lmao thanks for your usual levels of consistency there splat devs

As for the Green... Well, Splatoon isn’t exactly accurate with any of its color choices haha

Overall Ryan ABXY isn’t anywhere near as cursed as some Certain Other Splatband characterS

#right yeah by the way his name is Ryan #once upon a time I did also yell at Ryan but I have discovered Stronger Enemies #Squid 2 the evolution of the squid #haikara walker info...#technicbones #asks

Day 125 (9/19).

I slept well in the warm cabin on a shared futon in the living room. Soon after waking up, Daniels started cooking pancakes for breakfast while he attempted to make terrible not clever and not funny French jokes mainly directed at a French Canadian Hiker who was there. Before long Scott came in and said he was going soon to exactly the place we needed to go in order to keep up our continuous footpath: that convenience store from the night before. So we quickly got ready and rode with him picking up my package along the way as well as another hiker who was at a motel. On the car ride and talking to Scott we realize that we had all met before, but he had been using his trail name Devilfish. He had resupplied a water cash in the desert where Dixie and I had been waiting out the hot part of the day once. He dropped us off and Butt'rs got some rain pants and we both got some gloves. We started hiking in the rain and I put on my full rain suit my dad had sent in the package while Devilfish took the rest of my stuff back to Mama G's. We were told it was 14 miles to get to Packwood but it was actually 20. I was soaked (my own fault) when we got to the Mobil station in town and we ate there and tried to figure out the rest of the night. Mama G was two hours out of town making a trip to a big box store, and it was 2.5 miles to her place we didn't want to walk. I finally spoke with Bob and Shelli Bordeaux, and Bob said he would come pick us up there and take us to get the rest of our things at Mama G's house and then back to their place where Shelli was already making dinner. We were happy to have such a generous offer and took them up on it right away. The Bordeaux place was amazing and they were amazing people. We showered and laid out all of our things to dry and did laundry before heading up to dinner. Shelli made a cream of broccoli soup and we all exchanged stories while we ate. They were goodhearted, interesting people and they had one of the best views I've ever seen from a dinner table in a person's home. It was through a huge, wide window and looked out onto a valley with mountains in the background. I couldn't imagine seeing that view everyday while having coffee and breakfast. They told us that they had had a normal cookie-cutter life and realized they weren't happy with it so they took off in an RV and sold their home and toured the country for 9 months until deciding to come back to Washington and fix up the home they had now and they had both had now retired early. It seemed like they knew what was up and really had created a good life for themselves. Goals, lol. After dinner Bob asked if we wanted to use the hot tub, so of course Butt'rs and I did while enjoying a corona each. We came in and chatted with them a bit more before doing a few more chores and heading to bed in their basement.
