They resemble ordinary Octarians but with different coloration.


These Octarians have been sterilized with a type of primordial ooze created by [[Telephone|Commander Tartar]]. The process of sanitizing results in the Octarian losing all sense of free will, allowing them to be controlled similar to robots as seen with the dialogue from Sanitized Octolings. [[Marina]] notes that the sanitized Octarians appear to have no pulse or signs of life.
During the [[Turf War (Octo Expansion)|Turf War]], Commander Tartar itself is revealed to be coated in an amount of the sanitizing ink, wherein it has a sanitized Octarian tentacle. The [[NILS Statue]]'s cannon is also armed with sanitizing ink.

==Appearance==
Sanitized Octarians are visually distinct from normal [[Octarian]]s by their coloration: a blue-to-neon yellow gradient on their tentacles and eyes with black sclera and glowing aqua blue irises. Elite versions (such as Sanitized [[Elite Octoling]]s, Sanitized [[Deluxe Octocopter]]s, and Sanitized [[Deluxe Twintacle Octotrooper]]s) have a darker blue and the same yellow in the gradient.

Their voices sound more digital and compressed and, when splatted, they briefly leave glowing blue pixels and glitch-like squares. Instead of the glitter-like effect that ink has in [[Octo Canyon]], the Sanitized Octarians' ink resembles dishwasher detergent or hand sanitizer.

Sanitized Octarians were first seen in the ''[[Octo Expansion]]''. The sanitization is implied to cause the affected to lose their free will.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SplatoonJP/status/998488945695440896 {{TWI}} SplatoonJP - Dedf1sh introduction]</ref>
==Creation==
Sanitized Octarians have been sterilized of life's energies with blended ink<ref name="sanitized"/> created by [[Commander Tartar]]. Subjects that are candidates of aiding this ink's creation are tested through the Kamabo Co. [[Deepsea_Metro|underground research facilities]]. The conclusion of the tests results in them being [[Thang|tricked into being blended]] to help create the ink. The process of sanitizing Octarians with this ink results in them losing all memory and identity and submit to Kamabo Co.'s ideas.<ref name="sanitized"/> [[Marina]] notes that the sanitized Octarians appear to have no pulse or signs of life.
Some time later, Marina determined that sanitization works by removing the thoughts and memories of its victims, which are then turned into [[mem cakes]]. The structures housing the soul are then left in a hollow state, and if the correct dummy data is implanted the victim's mind will fall under the control of the implanter. Based on this idea, she devised a plan to undo the sanitization process by restoring the mem cakes to their rightful owners, which she dubbed the [[Memverse]]. The Memverse helped [[Acht]] to recover.

==Trivia==
==Related cases==
* Although the implication is that Octarians lose all free will after sanitization, biographies about [[Dedf1sh]] describe how "little of her former self remains", showing that, at least in some cases, Sanitized Octarians do retain some key memories.
In the [[Spinal Phase]] of ''[[Octo Expansion]]'''s finale, it is revealed that [[Agent 3 (Splatoon)|Agent 3]] was brainwashed by blended ink applied to their head by Commander Tartar. In this brainwashed state, they incapacitate [[Cuttlefish|Cap'n Cuttlefish]] and attack [[Agent 8]] to prevent them from escaping to the surface. This brainwashing is temporary and has visual indicators (their ink is green and their eyes glow bright green), but they do not show any specific physical resemblance to sanitized Octarians. After their defeat, they lose consciousness and are freed from the brainwashing as the blended ink disappears. They do not appear to have experienced any lasting effects from this brainwashing after ''Octo Expansion''.
** This is further evidenced through the subtitle for the [[Drop the Bass Station]]: "Back like I never left", indicating that the Sanitized [[Octostomp]] remembers the [[The Mighty Octostomp!|previous]] [[The Octostomp Returns|battles]] against the [[Squidbeak Splatoon#New Squidbeak Splatoon|New Squidbeak Splatoon]] and thus recognizes [[Cap'n Cuttlefish]] and sees [[Agent 8]] as its enemy as Agent 8 is an ally of Cuttlefish.
** The case with Dedf1sh could also be thought of as incomplete sanitization, as the ends of her tentacles are red instead of the usual sanitized green.
* The Japanese name for the [[Belly Phase]] can be translated as the "Stomach Sanitization Site". In this level, [[Octarian]]s are seen coming out of blue-green liquid containers with Octarians packed inside boxes. Concept and commentary from ''[[HaikaraWalker]]'' reveals that the Octarians are Sanitized in the facility and being sent from the Belly Phase to their respective test sites.<ref>[https://kirbypost-generator.tumblr.com/post/181961271805/newalbacoreloveblog-octoshotloveblog Haikara Walker scans and translation - Sanitized Octarians]</ref>
* The sanitized Octolings have one major difference from the other Octarians, being that their eyes do not have the black sclera and glowing aqua blue irises when their glasses are removed. This could be an oversight as they are never meant to be seen without their glasses in game, but it is still visible at the right angle.

Sanitized Octarians are a variation of Octarians that have been sterilized or disinfected[1] and had "life's energies" purged from them,[2] thereafter having been brainwashed to work for Kamabo Corporation. They resemble ordinary Octarians but with different coloration.

During the Turf War, Commander Tartar itself is revealed to be coated in an amount of the sanitizing ink, wherein it has a sanitized Octarian tentacle. The NILS Statue's cannon is also armed with sanitizing ink.

Appearance

Sanitized Octarians are visually distinct from normal Octarians by their coloration: a blue-to-neon green gradient on their tentacles and eyes with black sclera and glowing aqua blue irises. Elite versions (such as sanitized Elite Octolings, sanitized Rocket Octocopters, and sanitized Rocket Twintacle Octotroopers) have a darker blue and the same yellow in the gradient of their tentacles. Octolings have normal eyes in humanoid form, with regular enemy Octolings having dark grey eyes.[3]

Their voices sound more digital and compressed, and when splatted, they briefly produce glowing blue pixels and glitch-like squares. Instead of the glitter-like effect that ink has in Octo Canyon, the sanitized Octarians' ink, which is the same as the one used to sanitize them, resembles dishwasher detergent or hand sanitizer.

Creation

Sanitized Octarians have been sterilized of life's energies with blended ink[2] created by Commander Tartar. Subjects that are candidates of aiding this ink's creation are tested through the Kamabo Co. underground research facilities. The conclusion of the tests results in them being tricked into being blended to help create the ink. The process of sanitizing Octarians with this ink results in them losing all memory and identity and submit to Kamabo Co.'s ideas.[2] Marina notes that the sanitized Octarians appear to have no pulse or signs of life. Some time later, Marina determined that sanitization works by removing the thoughts and memories of its victims, which are then turned into mem cakes. The structures housing the soul are then left in a hollow state, and if the correct dummy data is implanted the victim's mind will fall under the control of the implanter. Based on this idea, she devised a plan to undo the sanitization process by restoring the mem cakes to their rightful owners, which she dubbed the Memverse. The Memverse helped Acht to recover.

Types of sanitized Octarians

The following Octarian types have sanitized variations. Types denoted with an asterisk have only appeared in their sanitized forms.

Additionally, Acht was sanitized.

The following Octarian machines appear using sanitized Octarian ink:

Related cases

In the Spinal Phase of Octo Expansion's finale, it is revealed that Agent 3 was brainwashed by blended ink applied to their head by Commander Tartar. In this brainwashed state, they incapacitate Cap'n Cuttlefish and attack Agent 8 to prevent them from escaping to the surface. This brainwashing is temporary and has visual indicators (their ink is green and their eyes glow bright green), but they do not show any specific physical resemblance to sanitized Octarians. After their defeat, they lose consciousness and are freed from the brainwashing as the blended ink disappears. They do not appear to have experienced any lasting effects from this brainwashing after Octo Expansion.

In the Splatoon manga series, Rider takes on the role of the brainwashed Agent 3.

Trivia

  • The Japanese name for the Belly Phase can be translated as the "Stomach Sanitization Site". In this phase, boxes are seen coming out of blended ink containers with sanitized Octarians packed inside. Concept art and commentary from HaikaraWalker reveals that the Octarians are sanitized in the facility, then packaged. They are transported to their respective test sites.[4]
  • Octoballs briefly appear in sanitized form during the Escape phases despite their non-sanitized forms not making an appearance in Splatoon 2. They first appear in moving containers during the Belly Phase, where they can be seen playing Game Boys, then later appear again during the Turf War final boss battle, in which they are inside the NILS Statue's cannon.
  • The reason for the sanitized Octarians sporting different colors than others is so the player can see them better in comparison to Agent 8. It is also to give the feeling of brainwash and poisoning.[5]

Translation notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 Purifié has only been used by Marina to describe Acht, being used in quotations marks. However, in the Dev Diaries, Marina uses asepsie for usages describing the process of sanitization, using asepsisée[sic] once to talk about souls.
  2. From паштет pashtet ("pate", a paste-like dish made of meat and/or liver), which is a part of the Russian name of Kamabo Co., Паштетико Pashtetiko ("Pate & Co.")
  3. In Russian localization of Side Order, the same term applies to both sanitization and Grayscaling
