Does anyone know what the fourth band member could be? It's definitely not an inkling (lack of "Mask", teeth?, tentacle hair?). - Jer455 (Talk) 19:22, 6 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Could be tentacles towards the back out of picture though and mask could be face-painted away. Teeth not visible due to expression perhaps. Though I strongly suspect not an inkling, it's not too far from the realms of possibility. Haven't found any canon description yet. User:Kjhf/Sig 20:03, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
I don't know, the green skin and orange hands and feet are kind of suspect, even if the other stuff can be explained.
Also, a bit off-topic, but are we sure this person is female? To me they've always seemed, like, pretty ambiguous.

Yeah, the fourth member always looked male to me... o.o Callie user page.png The E-Litist (talk) 02:54, 18 August 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Names

The band members’ Japanese names come from different types of chiptune sounds. The NES had two square wave channels, a triangle wave channel, a noise channel, and a delta pulse-code modulation channel. Shikaku (四角) means "quadrilateral"/"square"; Raian (ライアン) is part of the word トライアングル, "triangle"; Noijī (ノイジー) is "noisy"; and Paruko (パル子) sounds like "pulse-code". (Thanks to User:Ikaheishi for the Shikaku and Noijī observations on Talk:Harmony.) Gomtuu (talk) 19:46, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
