Wipe out the Salmonids with powerful Secret Techniques! Will the crew be able to defeat the looming Salmonid threat and claim the treasure...!?
A character from Splatoon 3 and a member of Deep Cut. An Octoling shark tamer. She speaks with a Kyoto dialect and hosts Anarchy Splatcast with the flair of a Rakugo storyteller. She refers to herself as 'Uchi'. Her Japanese name, Fuuka, likely comes from 'Fuka' (large shark). Since sharks are often used as ingredients for surimi (fish paste), her name ties into the group name 'Deep Cut' (Surimi Union). She supports (?) the protagonist, the Mechanic.
A character from Splatoon 3 and a member of Deep Cut. An Inkling and descendant of a family of eel tamers. Female. She uses an archaic, elderly-sounding speech style in Japanese (using 'Washi' for 'I' and endings like '~ja'), though it is likely modeled after the Hiroshima dialect. Like Shiver, she supports the Mechanic.
A member of the idol unit Deep Cut from the game Splatoon 3. The first male member of an idol unit who is neither an Inkling nor an Octoling, but a manta ray. His English name is 'Big Man'. He doesn't speak the Inkling language, saying only 'Ay!', but translations appear in parentheses, allowing him to converse normally with others. He refers to himself as 'Boku' and, true to his easygoing expression, is a gentle pacifist compared to Shiver and Frye. He supports the Mechanic.
Hey! Mechanic!
Ay! (Mechanic, where are you? ...Ah!)
The Mechanic is busy building something.
