This doesn't quite say that '''all''' the Octarians are forcefully brainwashed and never follow Octavio out of a more genuine sense of loyalty and the interview itself is more about the inspiration for the game's general sound design. I would also like to call some attention to the fact that Marina in the [[Octo Expansion]] has stickers for both The [[Squid Sisters]] AND DJ Octavio on the front of her laptop, while also pointing out that the DJ Octavio [[Mem cake]] in the Expansion implies that [[Agent 8]] feels some guilt over leaving Octavio's side. Both of these seem strange if Octavio is just controlling everyone against their will. Anyway, I edited the original text to better convey what Minegishi actually said. | This doesn't quite say that '''all''' the Octarians are forcefully brainwashed and never follow Octavio out of a more genuine sense of loyalty and the interview itself is more about the inspiration for the game's general sound design.

The page says that the killer wail is smaller/slower, but in my experience fighting him, I think it's the same, or variant on the phase.Ash4fun (talk) 21:21, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
- I was curious about that too, and looks like the article's right. Here's a crappy little screenshot of Octavio's Killer Wail, compare it to Killer Wail2.jpg. Even if we account for the fact that part of Octavio's is clipping through the floor, it's still a lot smaller. --Bzeep! talk 21:46, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
Shouldn't we have more images of him in Splatoon 2? All the images are of the first game.--Doughnutsprinkles8 (talk) 09:25, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
Is Octavio an Octoling?
Since he does have a humanoid form (as shown in the Sunken Scroll), wouldn't that technically make Octavio an octoling (who just chooses to stay in Octopus form)? -DJParticle (talk) 08:51, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
- Actually, you have a point! That should be added to the trivia~ Splattersky (talk) 04:15, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
Octavio's Control of the Octarians
It is often assumed that DJ Octavio controls the Octarians through music in a "slave-like manner". However, the actual statement of game composer Toru Minegishi is translated thus:
“I created all of them exactly as something similar to techno. First I thought to completely change the musical direction so it would be easy to recognize that they are different from the types of songs used in Turf War. Octo Valley has a feeling of being alone behind closed doors, even with Cuttlefish giving orders, and that is in contrast with noisy and hectic sports-like image of Turf War. Also it’s like the Octo side broadcasts their music in order to control the many Octarians. DJ Octavio and his direct subordinates compose the music. Octarians somehow cross talk into the protagonist’s headphones. The ‘zazzazzazza’ rhythm gives an image of controlled Octarians marching and that mechanical feeling is put together in techno.” ---https://nintendoeverything.com/splatoon-staff-talk-about-the-inkling-design-more-on-the-squid-sisters-and-other-topics/
