A third interpretation is that Marina uses an on-screen persona that is sassier than her actual personality. Others reconcile Marina's localized personality with her original by suggesting that her snarky attitude is a façade hiding her insecurities as an Octoling she is trying to fit into Inkling society by emulating the dynamic of her idols, Callie and Marie, who were popular among Inklings due to their playful snarky banter.
In response, some fans have interpreted Marina as being Innocently Insensitive, suggesting that the Octolings have different cultural norms from Inklings and Marina expressing herself genuinely causes her to unintentionally come across as snarky. The English localization initially characterized Marina as a Deadpan Snarker similar to Marie from the first game, which was in stark contrast to her Shrinking Violet personality in the original Japanese version.That said, given how quick she is to defend Marina even immediately after learning this, arguments can still be made toward her inner kindness. This interpretation was partially invalidated by Octo Expansion: Pearl initially had no idea that Marina was an Octoling, only finding out during the events of the expansion, so she most likely played little intentional part in Marina's shift to Inkling society. They argue that Pearl happily befriended a member of the Inklings' collective Arch-Enemy because she was just that cool, and this kindness is part of what influenced Marina to become a Token Heroic Orc (the other part being the Squid Sisters' song). Her defenders argue that she's an All-Loving Hero with a heart of gold (occasional snark due to the duo's Vitriolic Best Buds dynamic aside), with their proof being that her best friend, Marina, is an Octoling. Defenders of Pearl suggest a different interpretation than the monster her detractors see her.It can be argued, however, that the Inklings simply don't know about the brainwashing. Cuttlefish knowing Octavio from the war, as seen in the first game's Sunken Scroll, doesn't help. The Octarians already had sympathetic viewpoints in the first game, but an interview about the first game stating that their stage music was meant to feel like they were being mind-controlled, as well as canonical evidence of brainwashing in Callie's hypno-shades, led people to see them as victims and the Inklings, Cuttlefish in particular, as callous.
A species with innocent intentions but heavily misplaced morals, or a self-centered race who has no qualms stealing the unborn babies of another innocent species and dooming another to an underground, collapsing civilization while also possibly erasing them from history? Or are the Salmonids so utterly monstrous, violent and barbaric that it's a moot point anyway? There's also the fact that the non-golden eggs are identical to the power-up eggs seen in Single-Player Mode. While the Inklings had been getting minor bouts of it during the first game, it reached a head here with the introduction of Salmon Run.That One Level - Salmon Run (shared with Splatoon 3).Scrappy Mechanic (shared with the franchise page).
