Interview: The Great Big Three-Group Summit! is the headline of an in-universe news article published on the official Splatoon 3 site on 12 July 2024. The article features an interview with the Squid Sisters, Off the Hook, and Deep Cut.
Transcript
We’ve seen the Squid Sisters, Off the Hook, and Deep Cut groups pair up now and then, but this time we’re bringing them all together at once!
Thanks, all of you, for getting together with us today.
Callie: Sure thing! Thanks for having us!
Shiver: We never pass up a chance for an interview.
Pearl: Yeah, all press is good press! Hey, can I get a refill on this soda?
Now, you’ve all sought out opportunities to release songs outside the bounds of your own groups, right?
Callie: Yeah, like Squid Sisters feat. Ian BGM! We should collab again sometime, Big Man.
Marie: Callie, the “Ian BGM” thing is supposed to be a secret.
Callie: It is?! Whoops! They can edit that out.
Big Man: Ay. Ay... (It’s OK. Everyone knows now…)
Frye: I was seriously shook when I first heard Liquid Sunshine. Who knew it was a charity song?
Marie: Callie had the idea that she wanted to do something for the folks in Splatsville who were struggling financially.
Shiver: You should have told us that’s what it was about, Big Man. Why go to the trouble of hiding it?
Big Man: Ay! Ay. (I already said I’m sorry! I just knew how you and Frye hate owing anyone. But you two getting mad led to us releasing Big Betrayal, so some good came of it.)
Pearl: You sure don’t make things easy on yourself, Big Man.
The battle track between Off the Hook and Fire & Ice was also a surprise!
Pearl: Oh yeah, Suffer No Fools. Frye and Shiver kinda rushed the stage on us, so that was less a collab and more of a callout.
Big Man: Ay… Ay. (Sorry again about these two... But it was cool to watch the sparks fly.)
Marina: Pearl and Frye got pretty heated, but afterwards they both looked like they felt better. And I got a few singing tips from Shiver, which really made my day!
Shiver: You won a fight you didn’t even know you were in…
Big Man: Ay? (You’ve been listening to songs by Inkopolis artists a lot lately, right, Frye?)
Frye: Well, “a lot” is pushing it, but yeah.
Marina: Did you hear the new SashiMori I linked you the other day?
Frye: Yep. It kills me to say this, but it was pretty dope. You’re talking about Amalgamania, right? It felt like it could’ve come straight outta the Splatlands!
Callie: Amgalamanium! What a cool title!
Marie: That isn’t the title.
Pearl: I caught last week’s Anarchy Splatcast where you had Paul from SashiMori on. Cracked me up. It was so chaotic!
Marie: It feels like Inkopolis and the Splatlands are closer now than they were two years ago. Aesthetically, I mean—not physically.
Shiver: You might be right. I wouldn’t mind seeing more of a back-and-forth between the two.
Frye: Oh yeah, I remember you talking about money flowing into— Shiver? You’re kinda boring holes into me with that stare…
It’s also true that the train line has made it so that more people come and go between towns to enjoy the Splatfests.
Marina: Speaking of Splatfests! Deep Cut!
Shiver: Er, yes? Don’t startle me like that.
Marina: That song you do during Splatfests, Anarchy Rainbow—was I hearing different arrangements for each season?
Frye: Haha, good ears! That was my idea.
Big Man: Ay...ay! (She came to me with that tall order at the last minute...but I did my best!)
Marina: I never would have thought of that. It must have been a lot of work. First, for the Splatoween version, you did the melody in a harmonic minor scale...
Big Man: Ay! Ay… (If we’re throwing around praise, I have to give you props for We’re So Back! The balance between the modal riff with the blue note feel and the chorus with the subdominant minor was so fresh, and on top of that...)
[For space concerns, we have omitted the lengthy music discussion between Marina and Big Man that followed.][a]
Shiver: What were we talking about again?
Marie: Splatfests, I think? That reminds me, Pearl and Marina. You two stepped away from the Splatfest stage during your world tour. How does it feel to be back?
Pearl: Just like coming home! Singing in Inkopolis Square is where I belong.

Pearl: Oh, word? You wanna go again?
Callie: Ooh, yes! Fight! Fight!
Marie: Callie, don’t egg them on.
Shiver: It’s so nice to see them both passionate about their beliefs.
You all get along so well. Do you ever hang out apart from onstage?
Callie: The Deep Cut crew gave us the grand tour of the Splatlands once!
Shiver: I hope you appreciated it. We know where the Splatlands shine better than anyone.
Callie: The natural beauty of Scorch Gorge was breathtaking! And I had so much fun squeezing through the Hagglefish Market crowds. Plus, there are all these super-tall buildings out here! Amazing! It was definitely a tour I’ll never forget.

Pearl: Marina cranked the Squid Sisters playlist every day while we were on tour.
Marina: Oh, I’ve got an idea! I heard the sweets shop that just opened in Inkopolis Square is really good. We should go sometime.
Frye: We talking about sweets?! Yo, gimme the deets!
Big Man: Ay! (Don’t be so pushy, Frye!)
Pearl: Or I could hire out the confectioner for a private party! You’re invited too, Frye. We’ll settle the score from our last karaoke battle!
Frye: Now you’re talking!
We’ve seen a lot of fans hoping for a collab between all three of your groups.
Big Man: Ay! Ay. (That sounds great! I’d be up for that anytime.)
Shiver: Shall I book some time for a special Anarchy Splatcast? Heh heh, imagine what that would do for our ratings…
Callie: Ooh! I just had a brilliant idea!
Marie: One moment, Callie. Drumroll, please...
Callie: We’ll make a song featuring all of us!
Marina: Whaaat?!
Big Man: Aaay?!
Frye: Hey, NOW we’re talking!
Callie: What do you think? Exciting, right?
Marina: It’s SUCH a great idea! SO great. It’s just...

Pearl: Ah, it’ll be fine. You got Marina to help, and she’s a genius!
Marina: I try. Let’s work together and give it our best shot!
Big Man: Ay? Ay. (You mean it? One of you is worth 300 ghostwriters.)
Frye: Well, if we’re doing this, we gotta come up with a group name for the seven of us. How about Seafood Squad?
Callie: I have one! Tricolor All-Stars!
Marina: The star angle is good, but how about Sparkling ☆ Seven Sea Stars?
Pearl: I’m not feeling any of these.
