The third character

 * thats what i was thinking, as the brown fur, and even the purple ooze can be seen, should this be stated in the article? LakePuddle 🗩 🖉 23:36, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

Translations for 上げ潮ノッテモーテル and 辛酸ナメマンタ
Since nobody has done anything yet, I thought maybe I should put in my two cents:
 * 上げ潮ノッテモーテル: "Popular Rising Tide Rider"
 * 上げ潮ノッテ comes from "上げ潮に乗って", meaning "riding the rising tide" (smooth sailing).
 * モーテル may be a play on "モテる", meaning "to be popular" (typically with the opposite gender).
 * 辛酸ナメマンタ: "Hardship-Ridden Manta"
 * 辛酸ナメマンタ is a wordplay on "辛酸を嘗めました", meaning "experienced hardship" (literally: "tasted the sweets and bitters").
 * マンタ is "manta", a reference to Big Man's species and Japanese name.

I should clarify that I am not a native Japanese speaker and hopefully someone else who is can step in. Harimaron (talk) 12:39, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
