Kamabo Corporation

Kamabo, Co. is a company in the Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion. It is the company that operates the Deepsea Metro and C.Q. Cumber's employer. The company's logo is made of two wave shapes that form a sea cucumber and appears throughout the expansion in loading screens, challenge selection, and on various item (such as the CQ Card and C.Q. Cumber's hat). The logo is also seen on the Rainmaker and the Tower in the tests instead of the regular Ranked's anchor logo.

Following Commander Tartar's defeat, C.Q. Cumber mentions that Kamabo Co. has ceased to exist; in light of this, it is likely that it existed as a front for the AI's operations.

Trivia

 * If the player fails to defeat the final boss in Octo Expansion, Kamabo Co.'s logo is visible on a monitor in a destroyed Inkopolis Square.
 * There's a logo of a single eye frequently present around the testing facilities, where a variation of the Kamabo Co.'s logo features the eye in its design.
 * This variant features also sometimes text at the bottom and seems to spell "No 10008-85", where the "No 10008" part is identical to the text that appears when Agent 8 clears a station.

Etymology

 * "Kamabo Co." phonetically mirrors the word kamaboko, a type of cured surimi (a processed seafood product common in Japanese cuisine).
 * "Kamabo" also resembles the last two syllables of "cucumber."
