Some people just have dark rings around their eyes. There's no reason to be eyeist about it.

What is this scene in Japan? Urban? Hiphop? Skater? or something?

Reminds me of the Themes in

why does Wonder Red's mask + hair look like an order of french fries

Wonder fries...Red!

To everyone saying Inkgirls are so better than Inkboys... seriously?

They are basically the same, just change hairstyle and expecially the posturing. Even their end-of-match animation are the same, and frankly this is one of the most androgynous and less dysmorphic design I've seen.

 

[Anbec7]

But... can you change the hairstyles in the full game?!!?

Other than that the design is awesome

But it's the Inkling boy's hair I don't like...

But that's WHY I like the inkgirl design better

Also the boys have a lower pitched voice.

I imagine this was the reason we didn't get hairstyles for this iteration. Future installments will probably add hairstyles and do it like the Mii-creation.

All these people siding with the girl. The boy is clearly the cooler one.

I'm just sayin, if I'm only buying one Amiibo (which I am) it's gonna be the girl. They're both qt though.

As others have said, the hairstyle is the reason why the girl looks better than the boy.

Kaya's mascara'd eyes are beautiful and I will have NONE OF YOUR SASS

and would just prove that the girl inkling > boy inkling ;p

 

[Wavebossa]

You gotta not look towards Tumblr/Deviantart for images of this anything, bruh.

fixed

I'm gonna use the girl Inkling just because I like playing as girls, but they're going to look functionally the same to me because I'm just going to wear hats all the time.

Same here, frankly, i don't get the hate squid boy is getting, he's cute too.

 

[turk128]

I mean, I guess they both have big heads? Not really seeing it besides that.

I think the Splatoon designs may be a type of gaming Rorschach test.

 

[Maebe]

The cat is indeed awesome, and lazy!

So cute ;_;

practically identical, but the hair sucks

this thread (the previous pages, at least) is a bit weird in the mad rambling sort of way

 

[foxuzamaki]

The cleverness of Inkling Girl's design is that her long "hair" tentacles, makes her a tad more iconic and dynamic looking than the boys. This makes her the ideal representative character for the game because her tentacles convey the game concept visually, at a single glance.

This makes the girl not just well thought out, but an integral and necessary part of Splatoon. It wouldn't be Splatoon without the girl inkling.

Indeed.

I think punk is a good term to use.

 

[Arc Christelle]

So your response to his post is a personal attack instead of a proper counter argument? Are you really so invested in a Nintendo game that this is what you chose to be?

But you just did the same? And no. It's not a personal attack or even meant to be offensive. I was being blunt. I met plenty of art students who carry the same attitude when it comes to expressions as if everything was in absolutes.

On a sidenote.

How does his opinion affect my interests?
