Splatoon 2 Lore Update: Squid Sister Stories (Look What You Did Marie Fans!)

I love that Callie and Marie have official lore. These two random NPCs, who only existed to add to the atmosphere of the game, now have a dark story going into Splatoon 2. And I'm guessing are a central part of the continuity between the first and second games. These developers have too much fun.



They actually were protagonists in the Splatoon campaign mode.

Wait...is Marie's VA actually named Mari? That's amazing.

Were they? I played and 100%ed that campaign, but I honestly don't remember their role. I'll refresh my memory.

EDIT: Just looked it up.

This is actually pretty cool. They appear to be taking a player-driven event (Splatfest) and using its outcome as the starting point for the Hero Mode storyline.

They were Agents 1 and 2, and they take over giving advice to the player after Captain Cuttlefish gets kidnapped. They also sing during the final battle. They never use their real names during the campaign outside of one slip-up. It is obviously them, though.

They were the agents who communicated with you via radio, and they also sing their most famous song to disrupt the final boss' own music.

EDIT: Beaten.

It's obvious unless you're a kid

Haha, thanks. I'm sure I realized this at the time, but I don't think this aspect of the story stuck with me in my memory since (blasphemous thought incoming) I never really cared about Callie or Marie. I remember Judd showing up in the Sunken Scrolls, though, because Judd >>> all.

I don't understand this skub/anti-skub mentality that developed over the two most boing fictitious video game TV personalities written for a children's video game.

Its cool that a splatfest decided the plot of Splatoon 2.

I just hope its not something cliche like Callie turning evil or got mind controlled.
 
Callie and Marie are nothing without the other. They work as a pair, one plays off the other. As individuals, they are merely half the talent.

So happy I got into this game, looks like the lore is about to get deeper than before.
If I had to choose I'd say Marie too but I got both of their Splatfest shirts coming to show my support.

It shocks me people are just getting the Callie/Marie pun. It was part of why I was so pro-Squid Sisters when they were first unveiled.

Callie is best girl btw. She just wanted Marie to pick her team for the last Splatfest you guys. She's too pure.
