Poor rival octolings suffered way too much. They failed to secure a powersource twice, some got sanitized and the ones who didn't leave the underground got taken by the fuzzy ooze

I want these octolings so bad. They've always been my favourites, and never were playable.

[PikAdame]

I still wish we could have their hairstyle

[donutsorokin]

Back in the day i used to think they looked really cool and beautyful (i still kinda do), and i talk for many when i say that when we said we wanted octolings to be playable, this is what we meant

Man hearing the splatoon2 octo expansion completed level music brings back memories

[chidouin]

PLEASE GOD ADD THEIR HAIRSTYLES IN THE GAME

[Yu_nicorn]

They appear so much LESS in splatoon 3 and its very sad 😢 they even did not get a proper animation or something

[Jm-kisu]

that shot of all the girls standing there at 9:29 goes hard as feck

I’m TERRIFIED of octolings and seeing this guy plow through them with no fear blew my mind

[Nyamihatecoffee]

The rival octolings are so sassy and bubbly sounding i LOVE IT

[johannevalstedhansen]

I remember when the hostile octolings in Splat 1 wasn't very agressive back then.

[tillllttt]

Hopefully we will get the glasses of the mammalian octoling in a later season of Splatoon 3 or after splatoon 3 like Splatoon 2 did with the octo goggles

[ImAPersonHehehehaw]

I love their death sound, it’s like they’re saying ☹️”

[Gonig]

Is it me or do the octolings behave differently from Splatoon 1 to Splatoon 2? Like if the developers learnt how the players play on online battles during the Splat1 lifetime

4:39 WHY’D YOU KILL HER?! SHE WANTED TO SQUID PARTY WITH YOU!!

[SLITproductions]

As a kid I had a crush on the octoling rivals
Oh look, I’m still a kid

[GalaxiaAstrophelofficial]

I’m just gonna say they are cutie pies :3

[bjkaye]

Geeze they sound like they're in agony when theu get splated. I mean they are getting blasted into ink but still!

[ratte]

What I thought was going to happen in Splatoon 3:
Cat girl Octolings! :3
What we got:
Badass, Mad Max looking octos with primal looking clothing/kit.
…I’m disappointed but also not disappointed, post apocalyptic octos are freaking awesome :D

You could've added Side Order's Parallel Canon as a bonus, even though they're Inklings, they're basically the same enemies, and Acht specifies they look a lot like eight.
