Inkopolis News Studio
The name(s) presented could be conjectural.
The Inkopolis News Studio is where Inkopolis News is filmed. In Splatoon, it is located in Inkopolis Plaza, next to the Battle Dojo and on top of Inkopolis Café. It cannot be entered, although Inklings in the Plaza can go up to it. From here, they can see the Squid Sisters. Template:S2' studio can be found on the ground floor of Inkopolis Square next to The Shoal, with Off the Hook in it.
Easter egg
The studio is home to an Easter egg in both games: if the player looks through the studio's big glass window by zooming in with , the Squid Sisters or Off The Hook eventually acknowledge the player. In Splatoon, Callie and Marie smile and wave, while in Splatoon 2, Pearl shoots the player an annoyed look for disturbing her conversation, laughs to herself, and poses as Marina bashfully waves. If the player is an Octoling, Off the Hook will strike more determined poses and wave because they recognize the player as Agent 8 from the Octo Expansion
Appearance

In Splatoon, the Squid Sisters sit on chairs. The colors of the player's team and opposing team in the player's latest match appear on the chairs. The table in front of them has two lollipops on it, inside a container.
Splatoon 2
In Splatoon 2, Off the Hook also sit on chairs (Pearl's is yellow and Marina's is black) and on the table there is what appears to be a bag of chips and a drink.
Usage
Here, Inkopolis News is filmed. In Splatoon, people also order food and drinks, as there is a café beneath it. In Splatoon 2, there is a second floor, possibly used to film movies or music videos.
Trivia
- In Splatoon, the colors of the chairs that Callie and Marie sit on in the studio reflect the ink colors of the player's last match or the colors of the current Splatfest. The main color is the opponents' color, with arrows in the player's team color. The train that goes around Inkopolis will have a paint job that matches the neutral color value of the player's previous match. These include the colors of barriers, wall tops and other objects.
