This is a list of characters in the Splatoon manga.
Some of the characters' current English names are from fan translations. The official English translations from VIZ Media are used when available.
Protagonists
Team Blue
A group of supposedly idiotic Inklings who are the main protagonists of the manga. They don a blue ink color. This team consists of four members:
- Goggles, a C- rank male Inkling who wears Pilot Goggles, an Armor Jacket Replica and Hero Runner Replicas[1]. He takes on Shooter weapons, having a Tentatek Splattershot set. He is the mascot of the manga.
- Goggles is quite naïve. In fact, it is mentioned in issue 4 that Goggles mixes toothpaste and wasabi. He sometimes never listens to anyone else except for Bobble, showing that she and Goggles have a very special bond.
- He often pulls other inklings pants down, mainly to Rider, and often gets naked in public.
- A "topic" about Goggles from the squid profiles in the manga reads: "He can't hear his alarm clock very well, so he always leaves his house tired and disorientated. He also has a bad sleeping posture." It might mean that Goggles can't hear well, which is why he sometimes ignores people. Another topic states the lunch he brings to practice is usually pickled plums made by his grandmother.
- In the first issue, he wore Pilot Goggles, a Zink Layered LS, and Purple Hi-Horses; and used the plain Splattershot[1].
- His favorite food is Onigiri-sushi.
- In Chapters 8 and 9, he is assigned as Agent 3 and wears the default Agent 3 set wielding the Hero Shot Replica, plus the Pilot Goggles for the secondary headgear.
- In the Splatoon 2 Manga, he now wears an Eggplant Mountain Coat and a pair of drawstring pants along with his Pilot Goggles and Hero Runner Replicas since his clothes burned up upon super jumping to his team from the top of Deca Tower and crashing into the Crust Bucket. He now uses the Splattershot.
- Specs*, a C+ rank male Inkling who wears Retro Specs, a Shirt & Tie, and Plum Casuals[1]. He takes on Brush weapons, wielding an Octobrush Nouveau set (and a few other brushes).
- Glasses can be a very anxious squid, but tries to hide it as best as he can. He tries to flaunt his knowledge as much as he can, but sometimes he notices nobody is listening to him, which upsets him.
- In the first issue, he wore Retro Specs, a Vintage Check Shirt, and White Kicks; and used the Inkbrush[1].
- In the Splatoon 2 Manga, he now wears his Retro Specs along with a Baby-Jelly Shirt & Tie and a pair of Smoky Wingtips. He still uses the Octobrush, but he still has a few other brushes, like when he used the Inkbrush Nouveau set during the battle against Team Emperor.
- In the escape portion of the Octo Expansion Arc, he wields the Undercover Brella.
- He is the actual leader of the Blue Team, not Goggles.
- Headphones, a B- rank female Inkling who wears Studio Headphones, a B-ball Jersey (Away), and Red Work Boots[1]. She takes on Charger weapons, wielding a Classic Squiffer.
- Whilst acting as a big sister to the team despite them being the same age, Headphones is level-headed, except when Goggles is doing his usual idiotic things.
- In the first issue, she wore Studio Headphones, a White Tee, and Pink Trainers; and used the Splat Charger[1].
- In the Splatoon 2 Manga, she now wears a Slash King Tank, a pair of Red Hi-Horses, and a skirt with shorts with her Studio Headphones and she now wields a Splat Charger.
- Bobble Hat*, a C rank female Inkling who wears a Bobble Hat, a Green Zip Hoodie, and Purple Sea Slugs[1]. She takes on Slosher weapons, wielding the Slosher.
- Bobble Hat seems to enjoy Goggles' actions. Though she and her big smile show her innocence, Bobble Hat is pretty much always happy in the face of danger.
- Although she is always smiling, when beaten by Skull, her eyebrows are seen to be angry and annoyed.
- In the first issue, she wore a Bobble Hat, a Green Zip Hoodie, and Cream Hi-Tops; and used the Splat Roller[1].
- In the Splatoon 2 Manga, she sports the "Haircut" hairstyle and she's wearing a Gray Hoodie with her Bobble Hat and her usual Purple Sea Slugs. She still uses the Slosher.
- In the escape portion of the Octo Expansion Arc, she wields the Tri-Slosher.
- According to the manga topics, they each bring their own lunch to practice.
- In Issue 12 of the Splatoon 2 manga, it's revealed that Specs is actually the leader of the team, much to the surprise of everyone else.
- The Octo Expansion arc features them in their Spy Gear outfits. All of them wear the Sennyu Suit for their clothing. Goggles wears the Sennyu Goggles and Sennyu Inksoles. Headphones wears the Sennyu Headphones and Punk Blacks. Specs wears the Sennyu Specs and Inky Kid Clams in addition to wielding the Undercover Brella as his main weapon. Bobble wears the Sennyu Bon Bon Beanie and Truffle Canvas Hi-Tops in addition to wielding the Tri-Slosher as her main weapon.

- Some of these squids, like Rider, are named after their clothing and other squids, like Cleats, are named after their shoes.
- As shown in a CoroCoro video about Splatoon Volume 1, Sankichi drew the mascot, Goggles, in squid ink.
- All teams in the first Splatoon era of the manga consist of two male Inklings and two female Inklings, with the captain always being male, and the bios for each team, except Dark Green Team, list them in the order male-male-female-female.
- The Inklings' and Octolings' eye color are based on their current ink color, such as Gloves having green eyes when he has green ink, while he is seen with blue eyes during the Salmon Run session, where he had blue ink.
