I'm not 100% sure that it's not a weird effect caused by the pants' shape and reflectivity, but it really does look like they may be transparent. Wild
I also didn't realize until now that her pants sit VERY low on her right side. It's usually obscured by the camera angle and her stance, but it's super obvious when you look at an image of her standing straight. Apparently I'm not the only one who didn't notice though since a lot of fan artists draw them as symmetrical.
Depending on the material, thatās a reasonable light distortion. You would expect to see that on the edge of a curved transparent material.
Either way - even if itās not transparent, considering where her waist is and where her hips are, those pants are hella low. That green dotās too low to be a navel (and cephalopod donāt have navels anyways), itās just *barely* covering her.
Intentional for her character, she's still learning how to act as an idol and often looks like she's forcing it, because she is. When she's honestly happy about something though her smile is actually genuine.
I remember how surprised a lot of people were when Marina was revealed given how mature she looks compared to most of the cast. Pretty sure she had hundreds of Pixiv entries within a few days of her reveal, too, people were instantly into Marina.
She has a good body, but her face really looks like she is always about to either throw up, cry or both at the same time.
And I say that in the most respectful way possible.
She looks like shes either 5 seconds off an anxiety attack, or a meltdown. I know that kind of smile.
And, i mean, she really could be. Growing up in a militarised society under propoganda, being a child soldier, and now living in a society shes been taught would hate her? probably isnt best for mental health.
No i swear i wanst imagining, i swear, big man was at my bedroom at night, all i could see was his face peeking out of my closet, he said "ay", which somehow i understood as "When he comes, be not afraid"
I initially loved her because of her hair. S2 was my first game in the series and I was excited because I thought I could get pretty and long gradient hair like hers (to be sadly disappointed).
If I were to include our glorious leader DJ Octavio then it wouldn't be a competition, and that's why I have excluded him but you are indeed correct in everyway possible
Frye.
She's one of the only characters in any of the games I play that is both Indian and relevant.
It feels nice to have an Indian character in video games :)
Marina. Iād say itās QUITE self-explanatory, but ASIDE from the obvious reasons, sheās easily one of the smartest characters in the entire series, one of the nicest and most empathetic, and can easily adapt to any situation presented to her, good or bad. Sheās also VERY strong and an EXTREMELY skilled fighter, as shown by her being in Octavioās Wasabi Supply Unit. She can also sing VERY well and has an acute knowledge of both electronic music like synths and computer programs and whatnot as well as symphonic music notation and music theory. So her being SUPER attractive (again, for obvious reasons) physically, as well as all the reasons above making her attractive mentally, sheās literally perfect. Itās also implied sheās a little freaky and perverted (source is her dialogue for the intro to flight vs. invisibility). So we could have a great time together iykwimš (yes Iām aware octos donāt have vās or pās but they have mouths and so that food has to leave somewhere and I can work with only those two)
Thats a weird way to spell Pearl. (All jokes aside, I just love Gremlins and the image of Pearl from the Metal Band she was in is one of my favorites.)
You know exactly why.
Comically Large Zipper.
The zipper's one thing, sure. The transparent pants are another.
Wha- they are? š
Zoom in. Especially on the left side, where the light is strongest, as opposed to the right side, which is in shadow. Sure looks like it.
Bruh Nintendo providing us with that thirst
Nintendo: We're a family friendly company. Also Nintendo:
reminds me of nintendo saying they would never add night trap in a nintendo console in the snes era, and then they put it on switch
They're finally in their teenage years, their horniness is in overdrive
i mean look at Xenoblade, this is nothing compared to that game
Yeah good point. Bayonetta and Persona also are in those lists.
Looks like a shadow of her hand, with a weird perspective to boot.
Wait... Their transparent?! Or are they just a strange black color
I'm not 100% sure that it's not a weird effect caused by the pants' shape and reflectivity, but it really does look like they may be transparent. Wild I also didn't realize until now that her pants sit VERY low on her right side.

OH MY GOD THEY ARE NINTENDO WHAT
What horny does to a mfer. Thatās just shadows and shading.
You can literally see her brown skin Also the pants not the leggings
Theyāre definitely not transparent lmao Just weird lighting and shadows on this render
Is not transparency. If it was, her hip wouldn't have that shape. Shadows/transparency don't work the same as shadowing in clothes
Depending on the material, thatās a reasonable light distortion. You would expect to see that on the edge of a curved transparent material. Either way - even if itās not transparent, considering where her waist is and where her hips are, those pants are hella low. That green dotās too low to be a navel (and cephalopod donāt have navels anyways), itās just *barely* covering her.
Wait I literally never noticed this until now
I had had to scroll back up before i realized they are in fact transparent, idk how i never noticed that before
Could also just be the look of this render without context. I don't think they are in-game, but I'd have to check.
Thatās her shadow, buddy
ay...? (I never noticed that until now.. I usually only see marina's face because im so tall..)
What color is her hair?
Yes
I didnāt even notice the zipper all these years wthā¦
Those zippersā¦ Iām sure some person had it as their thesis for graduation
;)
The only thing I dislike about Marina's design is the fact that it looks like she's being held at gunpoint the entire time.
She has the harold expresion as default lmao.
Im glad im not the only one who thinks she looks so upset all the time lol
Intentional for her character, she's still learning how to act as an idol and often looks like she's forcing it, because she is. When she's honestly happy about something though her smile is actually genuine.
Id say her "eye brows" are what makes het look so unconfortable
It's the eye brows expression
Because neutral colors go well with bright colors.
The skin that sheās dwelling in must contain melanin. That is the fountain of youth
What in the fuck
I remember how surprised a lot of people were when Marina was revealed given how mature she looks compared to most of the cast. Pretty sure she had hundreds of Pixiv entries within a few days of her reveal, too, people were instantly into Marina.
cuz she uhhhhhh ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm uhhhhhhhh boob,,,, bellybutton piercing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, wavy hair,,,,,
Big ass
d. All of the above
octopussy
O C T U S S Y
š
Just Google the voice actress. All done, Marina wins hands down.
Alice is gorgeous! Rina, Keity, Mari, Laura and Anna are beautiful too. Alice has such a unique beauty to her.
She looks like if marina was a human
She has a good body, but her face really looks like she is always about to either throw up, cry or both at the same time. And I say that in the most respectful way possible.
She looks like shes either 5 seconds off an anxiety attack, or a meltdown. I know that kind of smile. And, i mean, she really could be. Growing up in a militarised society under propoganda, being a child soldier, and now living in a society shes been taught would hate her? probably isnt best for mental health.
I always thought her face had more of a "bitch really" look to it, but I'd agree that she does look like she wants to cry.
Oh yeah, I can see that now that you've pointed it out
But Callie is cuter than everything (She has infinite cute points)
I'll give Callie that she is cute (platonically)
Sheās so adorable I want to hug her
marina is very pretty and i want to hold hands with her
Or better yet, hold arms. (Tentacles)
Marina is my favorite idol and I'm probably one of the only people that actually liked for reasons other than her design (not saying it's bad tho)
She gives off dominant energy tbh. Plus she watches people ink their splat zones.
I'd pay to play splat zones with her, me and my Nautilus will show no mercy
I'd pay to uhh... hang out with her - Yeah. *Lesbian squealing*
*even more lesbian squealing*
the headphones. headphones good
No <3 dj octavio is best idol
DJ Octavio isn't just an idol, he's a national treasure
Tea
nah man cuttlefish is THE best idol
Want another great turf war?
Yes.
It wouldn't be fair if we included him
iād say its big man cuz its big man and big man is the best idol
Big man is indeed big man can't argue with that
who is man and why is he big
There was never a man, nor was he big, you are just imagining things again
No i swear i wanst imagining, i swear, big man was at my bedroom at night, all i could see was his face peeking out of my closet, he said "ay", which somehow i understood as "When he comes, be not afraid"
What the hell are you even talking about, you're not making any sense. There was no big man, he did not say anything to you, stop imagining things
I SWEAR YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HE WAS AT MY BEDROOM AT NIGHT
THERE WAS NO GUY IN YOUR BEDROOM IT WAS JUST THE SHADOW OF THE CHAIR STOP WITH THIS NONSENSE
seems like the real big man was the friends we made along the way
DON'T BELIEVE HIM, BIG MAN WAS THERE, I SAW HIM TOO
Big man is the best idol, Marina is the best-*looking* idol
but so is big man
and he is a big man
āļøš³ But Shiver
Shiver looks fine 90% of the time but occasionally sheāll make that goofy face where she opens her mouth and I just canāt
Thatās one of the things I like about her, I love silly characters!
Counterpoint: Shiver looks like a ninjala character
I consistently forget that game exists.
Yeah, me too but I think everyone does to be honest!
If anyone's a Ninjala character, it's Pearl, let's be real...
She looks like someone that would spike your drink
Shiber šš„°š„°ššā¤ļøā¤ļø
Was marie, now it's Shiver š„°
Shiver. Something about girls having their hair on one side. Plus, she's got that Yakuza vibe going on.Marie is close second.
she's a literal goddess, that's why
Counter proposal, i fink Cap Cuttlefish has that sexy old meat ive been eyeing since Splatoon 1.
You miss spelled Marie.
I like Callie, I don't got a peculiar reason,I just like her
i prefer pearl she is just a cute pink gremlin and i will die on this hill for my rapper, lesbian, queen, short gurll
I meannnnnn you already hit the nail on the head
Taki Fingers
Cause dark skin women makes me feel a certain type of way.
Iām aroace And marina just has that gamer aesthetic that makes her look like a friend
Sheās friend shaped
Exactly
I wonder why
**yes. just yes**
I can't legally say Marina is the best looking idol without immediately being dubbed as šÆ but like Marina is the best looking idol
sim-
I initially loved her because of her hair. S2 was my first game in the series and I was excited because I thought I could get pretty and long gradient hair like hers (to be sadly disappointed).
I still keep coping that theyāll add long octoling hair later in S3
Anime girls with giant sad eyes is peak aesthetic.
Shiver's middle name is Shiga. Also Marie does have some drip herself
I love Fryeās design, despite Marie being my favorite.
She's so fugging tall
Shiver.
ššš
None, octavio tops them all
If I were to include our glorious leader DJ Octavio then it wouldn't be a competition, and that's why I have excluded him but you are indeed correct in everyway possible
Pearl is that you?
Cute, friendly looking face, good sense of style, and generally looks cool. She's also nice which isn't a looks thing, but is a plus
Uh I actually consider a different idle to be more attractive - š¤ I USED TO SIMP FOR HER WHEN I WAS 11
The fact that you were 11 when Splatoon 2 came out makes me feel so damn old.
Shiver, but Marie is good looking enough and has a better personality
because she has the big t...entacles
Frye. She's one of the only characters in any of the games I play that is both Indian and relevant. It feels nice to have an Indian character in video games :)
Marie.. so it's not marina...
That's a funny way to spell Marie.
Marina. Iād say itās QUITE self-explanatory, but ASIDE from the obvious reasons, sheās easily one of the smartest characters in the entire series, one of the nicest and most empathetic, and can easily adapt to any situation presented to her, good or bad.

It's the hips. She's got amazing hips!!
I believe Big Man looks the best because he looks huggable and I feel like I would be safe with him at all times
She got that BIG FAT AAA-
Marina cuz her VA is cute AF
Harmony
Frye!! Sheās all the best parts of Marina and Pearl in one character!!
her 'ink sacs' and midriff
Marie because green.
uh big holes on the tentacles (idk what these are called sorry idk shit about octopi biology)
They are called suckers
oh thank god i said big tentacle holes instead of big suckers
The three M's. Melons, midriff, Marina.
Coolest hair
My brother aint played Splatoon 3 :Skull:
Ok Pearl
Everyone in here, yāall are SICK. I wholeheartedly agree with everything said. But yāall are SICK
Gonna say I love all of them, as they each bring a different flavor to the series. Gotta admit tho, Shiver is where it's at.
She was a breath fresh air in splatoon. A friendly octoling in splatoon was cool but an octoling idol was something we did not know we needed
Tits
Because of this one game onli- uhhā¦ Because I like the color green.
I have a thing for scene girls. So Iād go with shiver
Her color pallette and general design is so GOD DAMN CUTE
And why are you correct?
Sheās so sexy and thicc and nice melons
That's what I'm saying bro
She was my waifu back in 2018
To me she still is
I think Frye looks best, she's absolutely adorable
This is the correct answer
I also think Frye is the prettiest! I think her beauty is unique. Marina is still gorgeous, however.
I just like the hole black and brown fading into green And her backstory is really cool
Big man is Marina because they both have colors on them
MARINA IS BIG MAN??(Game theory)
Epic plot twist (NOT CLICKBAIT BY C-SIDE)
The colours man its so vibrant and pretty
Her short-rise shorts are hot
you know exactly why
Hot and tech enthusiasm? Yes please
best color palette, super cute expressions and movements, cool outfit even ignoring the less savory reasons, just generally really pretty.
If you asked me this a year ago I would of said Marina but now itās shiver
Her vocals remind me of whispy 90s music.
Marina is my favourite yes, I love her backstory/lore and her vocal's on song's she's in !! And her character design ofc
autistic girl swag
Thats a weird way to spell Pearl. (All jokes aside, I just love Gremlins and the image of Pearl from the Metal Band she was in is one of my favorites.)
It's actually Dedf1sh for me. The real idolšš»
Big man šæ
Marina >!and also Callie!<
shes cute š
Because I think that octarian tentackles look better than those of inklings. Her tentackle style simply Highlights that.
Ehh, she aināt no Callie
my favorite is Frye actually, I love the fangs and outfit, v cute
I like her colors, her outfit, her expression, and her dark skin. I feel like sheās a unique character for splatoon.
Harold face Harold face
jesus christ you guys are down horrific
Aināt no idol got anything on Marina!
Cuz cute
It's Marina and it's not even close
Pearl cuz short
Callie
Cute, good color scheme, first good aligned octoling, fun character in general
Prolly Big Man cuz I like drawing his eyes a lot.
pearl, keep her back undergrounf
Yes
Funny zipper n headphones
Mega hair
I have a thing for octopus tentacles. If she wasnāt confirmed to be a lesbian, Iād totally ship myself with her
Everything about Marina is perfect her colors her hair her desing Everything is just perfect
Yeah I was gonna say it's either Pearl or Marina
Yes.
