Pearl

>>383238926
This might make me sound contrarian given whatever backlash she is getting now, but I'm not taken aback by Pearl's appearance. I honestly think it's whatever.

TLDR

i think shes misunderstood. She behaves just like callie in the demo.

>>383238926
She's grown on me, but I still prefer Marina.

I liked her more when I saw the direct and its only increased since.

>>383239502
You think so?
I reckon her snark puts her closer to Marie.

I honestly think Pearl is the more interesting character, and that's saying a lot when her partner is the same species as the game's primary antagonists.
Also all the art making fun of her appearance makes me laugh like a retard.

>>383239658
the way she shot back at marina with
>o-oh yeah, well ice cream is just... frozen milk!

makes me feel that way, as well as her totally normal dialogue and emotions. She gets shocked and happy just like any of the 3. Its just her face isnt allowed to change.

The only thing that has portrayed her like her face does is her reacting to the player gawking at them through the window

Callie is warm and kind to everyone. Pearl is possessive and potentially dick-bitey

Pearl has charisma. Marina does not.

>>383239985
Marina is the perfect onee-san. She just wants her fans to feel happy.
Please take care of me Marina.

>>383240281
The game comes out in 2 weeks
They can't change what's on the cartridge and I doubt they'll release a day one patch dedicated to her looking like less of a gremlin.

>>383238926
Hopefully they'll replace her when Marina wins Splatfest 5 times in a row.

>>383238926
All they had to do is make her bangs a little longer and she wouldn't get so much shit. Either way, seeing her get bullied makes me like her infinitely more than Marina (even though I like her design better). Plus she seems more interesting personality wise.

>>383240506
She's more popular in Japan though.

>>383240318
Gee Pearl. What do you wanna do tonight?

>>383238926
I guarantee you she'll be a better character than Marina though. That isn't necessarily a good thing though since Marina seems pretty boring.

I know it'll never happen, but I'd kill for Splatoon on 3DS. I don't want to buy a whole system for this shit.

I think I just figured it out, Pearl is Marina's DUF (designated ugly friend).
She literally exists solely to make Marina look hotter.

I might not find her completely apealing as she could be cuter as rapper loli, but she is well designed.

The biggest complaint about pearl is that she doesn't conform to a more standard definition of beauty . She's also tiny . If you put two and two together you get "this little girl shaped creature isn't attractive " and the solution is to "make this little girl shaped creature more attractive"

So they can fantasize about fucking it .

It kind of feels like she wants to be Marie so she puts up a front, but she's still an amateur who doesn't quite have it yet. Like, she wants to be known as Bitch Queen, but she's probably nice to close friends like Marina.

>>383242258
Huh. It's weird because now she just looks like a punk rocker/semi-emo now instead of a DJ. I definitely prefer the original here.

>>383238926
It's really amazing how badly they designed her. Is it supposed to be ironic or something that she's so ugly?

In real life yeah but as far as we know there is only inkling and octolings and no other niche sub-species related to them. Unless it was explicitly stated in game that there are then I am wrong.

Plus changing your skin tone is a videogame feature and not tied to the story so that is unrelated.

>>383246014
Yeah, she is an octoling. Her stature, body figure and eyes are from the octarians.

It's a statement on today's perception on terrorism.
Similar to how syrian refugees are perceived as violent and evil, and are having a hard time being excepted by countries like the US, Nintendo decided to showcase an issue like that in their Splatoon game.

Think about it, inkopolis is full of forgiving and accepting inklings that have no problem sharing their culture and land with an octoling who's species often butts heads with them.

Maybe that's something to be elaborated on the the full game. For now, I just assume that octolings have different skin colors like squidlings does, but the models just wasn't diversified in the first game.

I mean, there's no reason not to assume that their youths aren't into style and fashion just as much as the squids might be?

That is just a videogame feature. I dont think it is tied to the actual universe. All we have seen of the octarians are the same red ones all throughout the first one then all of a sudden there is a different colored one? I just want and explanation of that.
