- This is very first video (Woah!) So I apologize if it isn't the best. I did work hard on it though!
Please give it a shot!
This video is also just my opinion and should not be taken as fact! I am just sharing my thoughts!
I think nothing bad of Agent 4, and this video was just made for fun!
_____________
All of my inspiration comes from these two! Please check them out!

I hope the agents get their own lines of dialogue and show their personalities. Like 4 seems to chill as seen from her rooming with 8 with no problem.
Mhm! I'd love to see just a more laid back Agent! Just making 4 unique in that regard would be awesome.
@@NackSploon I always imagined Agent 4 as the dumber-silly one doing shenanigans with Agent 8 while Captain 3 is just on her phone being slightly annoyed at them, but they all are a team
Considering all the fan comics making out Agent 3 to be the parent of the bunch, Agent 4 being really childish and happy, and agent 8 being incredibly quiet and curious would be adorable.
I think agent 3 is the one going around making sure there's justice while having bad hygiene still, agent 4 just goes along with things cuz why not there's nothing better to do, and agent 8 helps with justice like agent 3 and is a happy person
Idk about the new agent 3 tho (which is not the same one from Splatoon 1 confirmed by Nintendo treehouse)
Oh hey merge I remember you from squidmins chat
Another thing about Agent 4 is their ability to beat the octarians using ALL weapon classes at their disposal thanks to Sheldon. Agent 3 just had to use the shooter class (not counting the roller and charger amiibo missions), so I'd argue 4 is more capable of switching different weapons if need be. And sure, Agent 8 faces this challenge as well... But it's limited to 3 different weapons on each level. 4 handles all 9 on all levels. In my opinion, this is what makes Agent 4 stand out between the other agents. They can adapt to any setting at any time.
True! Agent 3 only uses a few weapons if we include the amiibo but I don't really count that. That is a pretty distinct trait that no other agent shares! I wonder if New Agent 3 will be able to do the same... It seems like they have at least a few weapons...
With the exception of Girl Power Station
Maybe if Sheldon retires in the next game, they can be the new weapons expert
I feel like 4 would be the one to survive if the agents were thrust into the yakuza games world.
Wierd analogy but trust me it means a lot
You’re right in the part where Agent 4 is more well rounded than 3, but wrong about the part where you said 4 can change weapons at any time. They can’t. 4 can only change between weapons when not in a mission, because they’re at base. So 4 couldn’t bud t bring 12 weapons with them, it’s too clunky. So 4’s wide arsenal really isn’t a pro factor for them besides being well rounded. As seen in Octo expansion, 3 can do the dualie rolls with just a shooter. Meaning they can learn abilities specific to other weapons without needing that weapon. While 4 is more well rounded, 3 just has more experience than 4.
Japanese Splatoon books seems to show that 4 is very academically inclined, which is why they never heard of the Squid Sisters. Because they were too busy studying.
This is different from most Inklings who are said to go to school somtimes but don't really care about it and often ditch class. I think that 4 could see 3 as a mentor and their relationship would be cool.
Clearly I don't think that 4 will be in the main campaign, but I'm confident they'll be in the DLC. Maybe alongside 8. That would be cool. As you said Pearl and Marina have no idea who 4 is. Maybe that this DLC will be the chance to change that since Pearl and Marina will be in it.
I was just thinking the exact same thing! I would love for 4 and 8 to meet in the DLC along with Pearl and Marina. Also 4 being the most academically inclined makes sense since they gave me huge smarty pants vibes. A4 is also my fav! So I really want to see them somewhere!
Yeah true. I really doubt Nintendo would just forget about them. I wonder if they'll talk. I mean just like Agent 3, they used to be our character so we don't see them talk, but I doubt that they'll use the same silent protagonist trope twice.
clearly agent 4 is not in the main campaign
4 and 8 are roommates so its possible. I could all see 8 skimping on the rent money
@@nickjaxon1317 They are ? Like, canonically ? Evidence, please ?
That thumbnail... You predicted side order
Agent 3 used to also be overlooked before Octo Expansion. So yeah, Agent 4 does have a chance to shine.
That's a good point! Agent 3 really became a staple in the series after they were shown in Octo Expansion (not including all the art we got of them)! We can just hope that Agent 4 isn't left behind after 3s resurgence in popularity.
@@NackSploon also tha valentines art of female Agent 3 with male Agent 8
If it wouldn’t be bc of splat 2 octo expansion, agent 3 would be just like agent 4 right now so like both are very forgotten but agent 4 will rlly be in the splat 3 so they’ll get the same popularity
because 3 wasn't a character until then
@@Josuh Agent 3 has always been a character. People just focused more on Turf War Inklings and/or their OCs
4 is my favorite agent and I honestly would really love to see them in the next story mode, it's pretty sad that 4 is the least popular agent but I can understand why considering they were the protagonist of a story mode that was pretty much a copy paste of splat 1's making them forgettable because they were just agent 3's replacement. Basically a bland story mode's fault in a way, but yeah hope 4 gets more screentime
I'm glad to see that other people care about Agent 4! All we can do is hope though ahah...
Agent 4 is my favorite Character too!
Yeah I think Agent 4 is awesome! I hope they get to play a bigger role in splatoon's story mode
4 aint forgotten,FOR COD'S SAKE!
Have u seen the replies???
Awesome! Even if this is from months ago I too have agent 4 as one of my fav characters!! Even when I didn’t know the splatoon 2 lore they were one of my favorite character
Bro Predicted pearl saying "who is that agein" in side order
The Thumbnail Joke Aged fucking AMAZINGLY.
Fr, I just found this and genuinely thought it came after the DLC 😂😭
I like how the thumbnail predicted some dialogue in Side Order when Pearl ask agent 4 is.
They tried to separate them by putting 4 as energetic and 3 as mature, but the thing is 3 WAS the crazy one in Sp1atoon, and grew. I have a feeling, now that 3 is prob 18 now, that they'll just say 4 'matured' as well (16 now).
Hope they retain their personality, doubtful.
Me too. I really think the personalities fit them well and give them more depth! It gives me hope that they will stay the way they were in Splat 2 because of the final fest. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, with Agent 4 on team chaos and Agent 3 on team order, and I really want it to stay that way! I am wary as well, but the final fest seemed to solidfy them a bit.
I feel 3's maturity also comes from being extensively exposed to battle for so long. People handle things differently though. And since 4 is down to like massacre salmonids I hope they do their development differently. Maybe even have 4 move on from agent work all together
Thought Marie mentioned 4was older than 3 in splatoon 2
@@shinminamotto That was a translation problem. It has been confirmed that Agent 4 was 14 at the time of Splatoon 2 while Agent 3 was 16.
This comment is outdated. If there has been five years since Splatoon 2 as of Splatoon 3, then Agent 3 would be 21 and Agent 4 would be 19.
FINALLY SOME AGENT 4 LOVE!!
as someone who started the series on Splatoon 2 since I never had a Wii U, 4 has a special place in me so it makes me happy to know that people appreciate them,,
Same when my mom took me and my brother to Walmart for more nintendo switch games I saw splatoon 2 at first I was try to look for the first one but it wasn't there so I just took the 2nd one instead and when marie introduced her self I was also like *um never heard of you* and when she did the *for eal* part I just was like *welp me and 4 have some things in common* and later on I learned that the reason I didn't find the 1st one was because it was on the Wii-U so every now and then one of my friends well tell me how hard octavio was in the first game and how he wasn't in the 2nd
the cool thing is that because agent 4 only has Marie, in several comics she tends to treat Marie like a mother, and her enthusiastic personality is pretty cool.
Aww that's cool!
Agent 4 might probably have a crush on marie
Well Agent 4 did do ONE worthy thing, they reunited two cousins and brought back a classic band!
I hope Agent 4 gets a better and more memorable role in Splatoon 3,
I think it would be cool if she right now, she would help Marie with research research on this mysterious fuzzy ooze, and is a theorist and speculator, and it would be sweet if she was also Captain Green’s perky assistant, who is helping her adjust to her new role as captain, takes care of the some of heavy stuff when she needs to and always encourages Green to take it easy and go steady and not to work too hard.
I think that would give us a bit more insight on the friendship between the two agents and the new captain.
Ahah, that's true!
Honestly I'd really love that! I can already imagine Agent 4 with some glasses on and a clipboard lol. I like that idea though! Especially since old Agent 3 and 4 have never really interacted, so it'd be nice to see a kind of friendship between the two
@Nack Thank you! In fact, this is what I got from the new trailer
Agent 3/Green - (Obviously) The captain
Agent 4 - Her assistant and a conspiracy theorist
Marie - A scientist
Callie - The cheerleader or hype girl
Agent 8: Sheldon's apprentice (BTW Nack, how the literal peck did you forget Sheldon?)
Agent 4 is definitely my favorite of the agent’s. (The normal agents. Not the Squid Sister agents. They’re a different story.) I guess I have more of an attachment with Agent 4 because of the fact that the Splatoon 2 hero mode trailer really connected with me. When I first saw that trailer, I was blown away! I couldn’t help but love it! Agent 4 in my opinion also has the best looking art. They’re really underrated.
Honestly I kinda agree! I love how agent 4 took the side of chaos too! They are really underrated!
Agent 4 supremacy
I always thought of agent 4 as the small bundle of chaos while 8 is the innocent one, and agent 3 is just tired of 4's shenanigans
I really hope 4 plays a role in Splatoon 3. They’re my favorite agent, thier personality compliments 3s and 8s perfectly, being goofy while the others are more serious.
Exactly! 4 being on team chaos is also pretty fitting ahah.
spoiler: they didn't.
we can hope for a dlc
The fact that the thumbnail is something that pearl actually said is both sad and funny at the same time.
I think a good way to add agent 4 and maybe agent 8 into Splatoon 3 would be through DLC. It could be set in a salmon wasteland or something like that, or it could introduce a new species entirely! Alternatively, an orderly setting clashing with agent 4's chaotic personality could be cool and seeing how they would take on the environment could help develop personality. Speaking of which, a DLC focusing around agent 4 or at least giving her as much relevance as agent 3 had in Octo expansion could build an actual personality by giving backstory, cutscenes, and interactability (idk if that's even a word) either between your character or one of your team members. We know agent 8 has Octarian backstory as well as how they see each character (through men cake poems), and agent 3 used to be a DJ called DJ Sango and the whole rave party thing, as well as a few comments from Marie about their hygiene. But nothing about agent 4 was really revealed other than they like collecting the stickers from each place in Octo canyon.
Also great vid! This was very well made for a first video and we'd love to see more!
Totally! I think that'd really help Agent 4 not just be forgotten as they honestly deserve as much spotlight as any other agent. Let's be honest, the Agents are mostly silent protagonists, so further developing 4's personality would be amazing! I am really happy that many others aren't willing to forget about Agent 4 and want them to become a real character just like the others!
Thank you though! That really means alot to a small creator like myself!
The pearl saying "who?" on the thumbnail aged like whine
Everyone saying the thumbnail aged well when my Girl 4 got did dirty in side order.
I knowwwww
Frrrrr 😭
The boss fight did agent four dirty man
Agent 4 isn't even mentioned once in splatoon 3 which I find absolutely hillarious
Praying she is in new dlc
@@SparklyTwinkleT0esunfortunately it’s just as a joke of a boss
I love how the Thumbnail became canon
Agent 4 did the most beta testing for Sheldon, collecting weapon data and the such, maybe there'll be that connection in 3 if they do show up in the campaign (or hopefully DLC to not bloat the cast of the main campaign)
That would be pretty awesome! 4 having more things that could make them stand is super important
An amazing first video. Keep up the good work!
On a side note, I think Agent 3 is popular because of the Inner Agent 3 fight, and people like Agent 8 because "finally playable octolings." No-one remembers Agent 4 because nothing sparked popularity, being able to use 9 different weapons isn't enough for many people. To fix this Nintendo might need to give Agent 4 a better role in Splatoon 3, maybe as another field agent exploring Alterna or maybe even a boss who wants to kill Little Buddy because the villain has brainwashed her/him.
Thanks! Ahh I was so nervous when I uploaded this since I didn't think it was good, so that means a lot ahah.
I 100% agree with that though! Agent 4 just needs a way to stand out from the crowd. I really like the field researcher idea or the brainwashing one! They feel very in line with the game we're going to get!
Personally i think the best hope for agent 4 is that they arent in this game, but they are in splatoon 4. If The octarian plot is finished up in splatoon 3 and the splatoon 3 DLC is another kambo and/or 'shit humans left' plotline'
Agent 4's best hope is that splatoon 4 is another plot, probably focusing on grizzco, and agent 4 can feature there. If agent 4 is in splatoon 3 in nearly any way it will feel forced and will do no good for their popularity.
I can definitely see where you're coming from
i’m not gonna say anything.
@@dropfish3109 I've already played hero mode lol. I know what happened. I'm surprised but not let down.
@@cpupyroheart5716 :)
I have a weird theory on how can agent 4 be more related in splatoon 3 so in the final fest poster of splatoon 3 we can see a lot of characters on different sides, and agent 4 was on chaos and everybody knows that chaos won, and agent 4 is the only one of the playable agents that was on chaos so maybe because of that agent 4 might have a bigger role in splatoon 3 since the game takes place in splatsville the city of chaos
That is pretty possible! I'd like that a lot honestly. It'd help Agent 4 stand out a lot and actually develop their character!
in the end it was quite the opposite
I’m betting agent 4 and 8 are on a mission together. Considering that none of the characters ever work “alone” (you always have Marie or the captain to guide you), it’s likely that the squid beak platoon never sends people on solo missions. This is backed up by the fact that the Captain and agent 3 were together for their mission during the octo-expansion. So, during splatoon 3, it is likely that agents 4 and 8 are on a mission together like agent 3 and the captain were during the Splatoon 2 story.
imagine they do online co op with 4 and 8
i hope that future games dont continue the "agent" plot cause itll get old pretty quickly. theres sm potential for splatoons story and if every single mc was a jist new agent number it wouldnt be special
Agreed. It was a cute little quirk and helped easily set up the Splatoon 2 story mode. I was kinda hoping they would move away from it with Spat 3, but it doesn't seem so. It seems like this one will be pretty unique though! As you said though, it wouldn't be special anymore if they just did it again.
Agreed
Since this is the end of the current trilogy, Splatoon 4 could go literally anywhere with its story.
the weird thing to me is how Nintendo is in between playing as your own custom character, and playing as 1 constant character. the agents seem like they're blank slates to project onto, but have semi-canon designs and personalities (especially with old agent 3 being in splatoon 3 and octo expansion). i would much rather have the playable agents be actual characters with designs and personalities, because custom characters only work if there's only one
*blank
Exactly. Agent 4 is basically the middle child of the Splatoon agent family. I think that Agent 4 is underrated.
Bro fr predicted pearl not knowing agent 4
Great video!
But damn... that thumbnail aged like fine wine
LIKE ACTUALLY WHAT??? PEARL FORGOT WHO 4 WAS!! I AM ACTUALLY A PSYCHIC
in splatoon 4, they could showcase the personalities of the agents, plus you could maybe play as a previous one - like, in splatoon 4, you get to play as agent 4 again. it would also be cool if they got new (slightly altered) hairstyles to make them slightly more unique
after splatoon 3’s hero mode old agent 3 and the squid sister’s arc is complete, so im hoping they bring back 4 and 8 for the dlc
I like your content! Keep it up!
OH MY GOSH thank you ahhhh!! Your content is awesome rizi! Thank you for stopping byyy!
Honestly, Nintendo had truly created it's ultimate masterpiece with the Splatoon franchise, the fact that they had created a world that doesn't truly have any particular limits in creativity and style whether it be from a lore perspective or from a hardcore gamer perspective, while it may seem like there wouldn't be any other ideas to implement at first glance, theres actually way more room to add into the game itself without causing any colliding effect with the game's lore itself. The 2nd and 3rd game truly stand to what the creators had tried to state about the franchise as a whole: "An ever-growing product into an ever-changing world parallel to our own.". The second game shows the slow and steady rate of evolution from the first game and the third game showing the 'butterfly effect' based upon decisions that you as the player decided on from the second game which in turn is directly the form of a 'parallel' universe.
In addition to this, this ideology has even further allowed fan-artists to implement their own ideas to this franchise without the concern of breaking the 4th wall too much or being limited to certain rules that if broken would make it too unrealistic to the franchise. This even further solidifies the idea of parallel universes where no world is truly the same as the other no matter which side of the spectrum they fall under.
(note: Not hating on the other franchises or anything of the sort, but just commenting on this game in partiuclar)
I think that 4 and 8 may be playing major parts in the Splatoon 3 DLC, although they might not. I think that the DLC, having Pearl and Marina, may go really deep into the roots of Splatoon. This is because they helped 8 in Octo Expansion, and how 8 and 4 can both use multiple weapons.
I like to think as Agent 4 as the lone soldier. They were more than capable with every weapon class, were trusted to be sent on their own to save another agent.
I think that deserves emphasis. Sure, maybe they saved the world, but their mission was to save another Agent. Maybe they're just retrieval. Maybe Agent 4 will be the one who finds Mr Grizz.
In the direct, they said Splatoon 3's story is gonna be the finale, so by the time a fourth Splatoon game comes out, it's probably gonna have a completely different story and new characters.
I honestly hope we get a DLC with Agent 5 (a new Agent) fighting against an evil Agent 4, that’d be so cool!
I'd like that a lot! It'd be similar to to Octo Expansion, but that not a bad thing whatsoever!
That would be interesting. Though wouldn't it be similar to the inner agent 3 fight at the end of Octo Expansion or the battle where agent 3 was brainwashed and stuff during Octo Expansion? Also, we're new agent 3, not agent 5.
@@victoriabell9546 I specifically said “a new agent” in PARENTHESIS to imply that Agent 5 would be a new Agent. It wouldn’t be NA3 again, that would be too repetitive.
But in Octo expansion I think they said pearl was agent 5 and marina was agent 6
@@Skipbop69 no, Kel. No they didn’t. It’s not canon, just fanon.
I see agent 4 as squidbeak splatoon's resident wildcard, given that they are familiar with every single weapon type throughout the campaign. Being like that makes them very valueable to the team.
I mean agent 4 is also their respective game's default female inkling. For me it feels like they have very little personality besides happy? Octo expansion gave 3 a bit more of a personality, they felt more aged and passionate about their job. Especially now they are captain. 8 has kinda a personality? Not really but yk, their animations in octo expansion give off a very sheltered vibe but also not imcopetent. 4 atm is just blank, I think nearly all of their personality is fanon? All I can think of is that they're 'down for whatever' and idk if that's in the Japanese version of that post if there was one. I think for things to change nintendo would have to shift the intent of the agents from a vessel for the player to project onto into a solid character. And idk how well that would go down
You raise a really good point actually. Yeahhh, The agents aren't meant to hold personalities. Heck, they arent ever really even showing off unique traits other than in art. Final fest is the only real indication to Agent 4's personally. Agent 8 does have mem cakes, but yeah that's the only time we ever see agents express their feelings. I actually agree, 8 doesn't really even show that much to be honest. Agent 3 has slowly been getting a bit more character but I'm really worried that theyre just going to be very basic and uninteresting. Same thing with any of the playable agents.
Personally, I want the agents to have personality injected into them. I completely understand why some may be against that though.
Agent four is my favorite agent and the reason is they are canonically a pushover and just fun, they are also less mature then agent three. It's not stated I don't think but it said that agent 4 is very mature and agent 4 just seems like agent threes opposite
Agent 4's personality was best displayed via the official artwork, especially in one where the entire New Squidbeak Splatoon along with Agent 8, Pearl, and Marina are taking a group photo, and Agent 4 is depicted bombing the photo by being a silly blur right in front of the camera. As a skit writer, I used to make fan written Splatoon skits that didn't really go anywhere where I individualize Agent 4 as an excited and highly skilled inkling who's always ready for a challenge. I even gave my versions of the Agents their own names. I never knew that Agent 4 was considered 'forgotten' until I saw this and I always loved Agents 3 and 4. I love Agent 8 too, but I didn't include them in that sentence because they aren't an official Squidbeak Agent yet.
A detail I havent seen meantioned in this discussion is Marie's kind of stalking habit with 4, somehow knowing a bit too much about what they are up to. Its pretty funny and is obviously there to give the player some stats, but also I feel like 4 not showing up would lead to the question of where they went, not just with the audience, but with Marie
One thing that I would like to see in the Splatoon 3 hero mode is a way to appear again but also never return again but not without a reason. I think it would be cool to add popularity to Agent 4 by making them a canonical death without respawn. That would definately boost popularity and give a reason to have them never return to avoid agent confusion. Maybe Agent 4 could start as just a fellow agent in the Splatoon 3 story mode but sacrifices themself in order to save the rest of the cast from the big bad. Maybe for the final boss, we can be given a cutscene similar to the cutscene before the NILS statue showing all the agents so far and them entering the fight. They look around and can't see the bad guy. They seem confused until a giant robot arm appears out of a giant ink puddle and tries to grab new agent 3 (who you would be playing as) at a high speed too fast to shoot down. However, before the arm gets you, Agent 4 cements his place in the fandom as a memorable character by pushing you out of the way and getting grabbed. Time could then slow and it shows Agent 4 shedding a few tears with a sad smile. Everyone looking chocked and about to cry. And Agent 4 says their final words. Something along the lines of:
"It was a pleasure to work with you all..."
"I'm glad to go out saving a collea-no, a friend..."
"Sorry I couldn't help fight but at least I did something?"
The arm then goes back into the giant enemy ink puddle with Agent 4 still in it's grasp. Slowly, the big bad appears in a metal robot similar to the Octobot King however it is different because it is not Octavio and if Octavio is the big bad again I swear to god I will blow a fuse. The other agents could appear in the fight either only through dialogue or just through AI-controlled fighters working with you. When the battle ends, Agent 4's body is all that us left behind of the giant robot. They still have some energy as they open their eyes just enough to squint. They beckon the other agents over and we get a heartfelt cutscene of their final words and then they close their eyes to never open them again. We see the body go lifeless. We see the squid soul rise then difuse into the air. We see all the characters present crying at the loss of Agent 4. Marie especially for obvious reason. When we end the level, the Splatoon 3 idols who have to be involved in the hero mode somehow do the whole Splatsville News to announce the problem being fixed but give obvious hints of sadness and depression. The end credits song is sad and and depressing. When the credits end though, it will show a picture of all the agents at the scene of the final level with Agent 4's happy smile in the background up in the clouds. Mufasa style. We can even get Agent 4's uniform as gear as a reward for completing the storymode as well as our own uniform.
Agent 8 could appear as just a regular agent and could be the one to deal the final blow to the Big Bad of Splatoon 3's hero mode. Dealing the final shot with the Octo Shot with tears in their eyes and an angry expression, Agent 8 finishes the Big Bad of the Splatoon 3 hero mode. I think it's fitting for Agent 8 to do it because they were the other protagonist in Splatoon 2. Agent 4 in the Splatoon 2 hero mode and Agent 8 in Octo Expan. Agent 8 could be the final one to speak with Agent 4 as well. It would be confusing on all the character creation for each agent but it's worth it i think.
This is super cool! Very nice, *but i don’t think nintendo will do it because: NINTENDO.* Still, its slaps!
Screaming crying sobbing (But it’s a great idea!)
This is the epitome of "I'm killing this character off for CHARACTER/PLOT DEVELOPMENT"
Agent 4 is undoubtedly my most favorite Agent in the whole franchise, out of all the Agent Protags, 4 seems like the chillest one of all. Besides, it’s not entirely their fault for their under-appreciation, their story is basically the same as Agent 3’s story. However, If there’s one thing Agent 4 will always have, it’s saving Callie and reuniting the Squid Sisters, really though I think all of us SS lovers and Captain Cuttlefish should be thankful to 4 about that. Also, you could say Agent 4’s “team” is Marie and Sheldon, considering Sheldon aided them with various hero weapons, sure he’s not Callie, but two characters is always better one. I hope Agent 4 and Agent 8 can get roles in Splatoon 3, maybe in DLCs. Seriously though, I thought Agent 4 would have a role in Splatoon 3’s story considering they (along with Callie) were on Team Chaos in the Final Fest, which ended up winning.
Bad news guys…
WHEN PEARL DIDNT KNOW WHO 4 WAS I WAS SO DISTRAUGHT
I definitely like agent 3’s redesign in splatoon 3. The scars on their tentacles definitely adds a nice touch
Yess exactly!! More uniqueness to the Agents helps so much!
I always though 3 and 8 were overrated. My poor 4 deserves more love.
Personally, I think 4's the best agent out of the three options. Of course, I’m more than a little biased.
4 is the best!!! Seriously I agree
Agent 4 has to show up in splatoon 4. That would be so perfect! We got agent 3 in splatoon 3 and agent 2 shows up in splatoon 2. That would be absolutely perfect! Although the way it looks rn agent 4 is like completely forgotten. My favorite tho 😞
I consider Pearl and Marina as agents because like why else would our octoling just be Agent 8? I mean our latest agent was 4 and it'd be weird just to skip three numbers.
You'd still skip a number with a supposed "Agent 7" though. Either way Pearl and Marina have never been confirmed as Agents, but its not impossible.
Head-canon of mine: Agent 4 only communicates to Marie. Because of this, I feel like Agent 4 would go on more missions alone with Marie on mic. I also think that Agent 4 goes on missions so much or is so busy with school that their barley around, always doing things that take up their time. They always want to do something productive, whether it’s school, their job at Grizzco, or their job in the Squidbeak Splatoon.
This is why the fandom uses the fan agents a lot
The cold 3 who usually has green ink,the bubbly 4 with yellow ink,and the curious 8 with pink ink.although I haven’t seen fan ideas for new 3 as much.makes me wonder
At first I thought this was a video to talk about how there is no agent 7 but I’m happy we are going agent 4 some love and I hope 4 is in splatoon 3 DLC
I’ll always remember agent 4, Splatoon 2 was the second Nintendo Switch Game I got for my switch. It’s what started my love for Splatoon in the first place.
Then after I played Splatoon 1 and Octo Expansion.
Agent 4 will have a special place in my heart, cause they’re the first agent that got me hooked to the game.
Until this video, I didn’t even think to consider the agents as different characters because of the numbers’ since like you said they sort of feel like just another playable characters but this brought my attention to how cool and interesting this theory is.
ngl I was really surprised when I saw this was your first video, keep up the amazing quality!
Oh gosh I really appreciate it! Thank you so much ahh!
Honestly you're right, 4 needs more love. (Nearly nicknamed her A4 until i remembered paper exists kek) As someone who is essentially chained to story mode and began in Splatoon 2, Agent 4 for me is like a representation of all the fun i am able to have in Splatoon 2 even without internet. She's a little bundle of chaos who seems to be so absorbed in her own little world that she doesn't even take an interest in popular music like the Squid Sisters. And that gets her flack from Marie as well. She's underrated and probably the type who starts fights because she thinks it's fun. I don't know, that's who she is to me. It's the fact that unlike the mature Agent 3 and the young and curious Agent 8 she doesn't have a canon personality. Funnily enough, the fandom seems to have decided that 4 is just chaos incarnate, nothing more nothing less, which makes me laugh.
I think the main reason that 4 was fogotten is for the same reason people forget hitman 2 was a big deal. They have that "middle" feeling.
Agent 4 will maybe become an antagonist in the game, like joining Mr Grizz cause she’s always left out in the dark and 3 and 8 are in the light....
Ohhh I can see thattt! I keep thinking that Agent 4 becomes a side character, but it's totally possible that they play a role as a villian!
I don’t see how Agent 3 can be hyped up when it’s the “Inkling” equivalent to Pokémon’s Red
Also, to 4’s credit, Marie hints at possibly liking Agent 4 if you talk with her enough in Octo Canyon. She thinks 4 is cute and “smells better” on top of having the Facto-pedia on 4 after the Campaign ends
Agent 4 is pretty badass and Nintendo needs to do more stuff with 4. I mean look at them, as an example they can defeat enemies with any weapon of their choice and has a good character design for hero gear. I really hope that 4 is in the dlc of Splatoon 3 because I really wanna edit them but theirs no cut scenes I I'm desperate for some because they are one of my favorite agents. It's so sad that people just forget about 4 when they are really amazing.
I'm guessing a lot of people who played Splatoon 2 tried to recreate their avatar from Splatoon 1, which has the really funny side effect of making it look like Marie went out into the street and grabbed the inkling she thought looked most like Agent 3 and made them a new agent.
Lmao gosh I didn't think about that. That's actually a pretty funny thought!
Agent 4 was fourgotten
Indeed she was.. lol
Don't forget Agent 4 canonically defeats DJ Octavio multiple times because Callie kept putting the hypnoshades back on.
The quality on this video is amazing! I love it! As another splatuber with not many videos I will definitely stay updated on your channel, I can’t wait for when I can really really get into editing (and recording) more, better videos like this one!
Awww thank you! It really isn't anything special though ahah, I'll definitely check out your channel though!
I have to say for a first video: you did phenomenally! I hope you keep up the fantastic work!
Yoo thanks for the support!!
Agent 8 would be nice to see in the large-scaled paid dlc in S3.
I see them as the black ops/covert operations specialist of the group.
Some of the mem cakes imply there a splatter scope main and fan of poetry
So I can see them being similar to Widowmaker in overwatch or v in dmc5
Like saying something along the lines of "To see a World in a Grain of Sand and a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour." In reflection as they slowly walk away from there incapacitated target
@@taccarrowilson9342 i like this
Rewatched your video. In case no one brought this up before, 4's team is Marie and Sheldon.
Yeah, maybe Agent 4 will have an actual ship Splatoon 3. . . I'm going mentally insane.
But yeah, Agent 4 is my favorite Agent! And I hope Agent 4's potential gets used wisely.
2 and 4 is already popular but it would absolutely fucking hilarious if people started shipping Agent 4 with New Agent 3
But who’s Agent 12?
@@Lemuel928 oh no not this again
we have
Captain 3 (the Boss: The squid running the operations)
Agents 1&2 (Commanding Officers/ lieutenant , 2nd only to Captain 3)
Strike Commander 4 (Field Ops)
Agent 8 (Field Agent, Some put her as a Sargent, but idk)
Neo 3 (Field Agent)
(pearl and Marina Aren't actual/official Members of the squid beak Splatoon)
To my understanding an knowledge this is the chain of rankings of ALL known OFFICIAL agents
if you ask me, I think maybe there'll be 1 or 2 more agents added to the series, and then just use the old agents for each campaign. it'll create an actual cast instead of just like "It's you!!!!" for every single player agent. also, not gonna lie, i couldn't tell that this was your first video in the slightest, you did really well!
I think that's a good idea honestly. Having a main cast would make the world of Splatoon so much more interesting!
And yayyy thank you! Much appreciated
I love agent 4 because. She needs more love. :(
I think that in the dlc they put agent 4 as like a villain like inner agent 3 and how she got there, Was by her thinking that they were betrayed, Or something?
Username checks out- Side Order did ya dirty bro.
@@RaychAgent4EVa TEARS
@@YourlocalAgent4 hey, at least you're canonically super strong, right? Take that, "4's a weakling" haters.
(Absolutely still not enough but let me cope)
@@RaychAgent4EVa :D
@@YourlocalAgent4 also happy birthday (4/4)
this is why I came up with my own lore and stories for Agents 3, 4, and 8. I do wish Agent 4 came back, because I love her a lot, but until then, I have my own story ideas for her
2:01 Sheldon does make an appearance in some hero mode stages (mainly the earlier Sheldon's request stages), but that's usually to give information about whatever weapon your using, not really another team member.
also ik this was made before splat3's release but splat3 was the last in the series of following the story of the squidbeak splatoon
My theory: Agent 4 will be teaming with Pearl and Marina alongside 8 in the DLC.
As for the reason of why 4 never heard of the Squid Sisters, I like Chuggaaconroy's meta theory about it being that since Agent 4 is new in town, and the Switch is likely people's first time playing Splatoon, it represents a new player who probably never owned a wii-u joining in blind, having no idea who the Squid Sisters are.
i thought it was splatoons forgotten accent 💀
I was so excited too
Agent 4 is 100% my favorite. I always thought her flashy style was sick like the way she jumps into the levels and does a backflip to grab the weapons from Sheldon's deliveries when unlocking a new hero mode weapon
Agent 4 is the middle child of the agents
4 has been characterised as especially goofy before in some stuff.
Chaotic as well! We just gotta hope they actually showcase that
i have 2 personal headcannons
1. agent 4 was legit forgotten left behind in inkopilis to watch over the square while callie and marie go with new captain to splatsville
2. agent 4 went to splatsville with the gang but is still an agent just off to the side either doing smaller missions or just being a scavenger/scout scouting possible fuzz spreads outside of alterna or just scavenging for matierials for whatever the new new squidbeak splatoon needs em for
I think they can add new agents every game, just in every game they shuffle through 1-3 agents
That would make sense. Apparently this game marks the end of the Squidbeak Splatoon and Agents story though...
My online friend was just looking threw splatoon official art, and she found what looks like to be agent 4 with blue hair surrounded by the same fishes in the splatoon 3 dlc trailer, so maybe she will play a role in the dlc! (Althought it is not comfimed I am just very delusional)
This needs a sequel
You know one thing that hit me recently, Capt'n 3 Is now gonna be 21 (since time in Splatoon seems to be the same as our time. Like its kinda weird to think that quite a bit of time has passed since Splatoon 1.
There's actually a very specific reason, from what we heard in the direct, as to why all the agents are back for *THIS* game specifically.
They intend Splatoon3's singleplayer to be a finale for the current story; so yeah, it makes sense for the whole team to come together for it.
Thank you for not saying agent 7. I can not tell you how many times my friends asked "who's agent 7?" Anyone who has played octo expansion already knows that agent 7 doesn't exist.
Ahah yeahhhhh it's a bit silly that people keep thinking that. Lol the idea of Agent 7 is just so weird and is nowhere in the game at all
@@NackSploon I can see why you think that. But I think it would fit in really well if cuddle fish told 1, 2, 3 and 4 about 8, so that way (if cuddle fish made pearl and marina, 5 and 6) 3 could nominate the new inkling/octoling as 7.
@@pnkicecreem459 Oh yeah for sure, it's just that they don't currently exist lol
@@NackSploon yup, that sounds about right.
What if instead of the new protagonist in story mode being agent 7, what if it was 4 again?
Me: agent 4 what happened?!
Agent 4: OCTO EXPANSION‼️
I just love how this man has decided to make a video about, technically, us and out impact in Splatoon 2's single player campaign and how we should make an appearance to possibly "help" ourselves or have a role in Splatoon 3's single player. We are agent 4 (and agent/captain 3 and agent 8 and new agent 3) and I just find this fascinating. In terms of 4 being unappreciated, I do sort of blame Splatoon 2's first single player campaign since people complained about it being similar to Splatoon 1's single player campaign. I also feel like Octo Expansion is sort of to blame since it was a new feature with a challenge and a more story-driven change to single player. Lastly, I also blame Splatoon 1's single player campaign since not enough people had played Splatoon 1 to get the idea of what Agent 4 had to go through unless you were those who actually owned a Wii U and the first game and probably see Agent 3 as just a feature in Octo Expansion. Sorry for the rant. It's just a lot to process as someone who has played Splatoon since the first game.
I think a few of the unique lines you get for transferring save date make me think the player character in 3 is same as the one in 2 mainly because grizz welcomes you back as a returning employee and after you do your first turf war who ever is teaching you about stuff finds that your idea card already had stuff on it
This was the first vid I saw of urs, but it’s rly good! 👌
Thanks! Much appreciated
A good idea is to put the agents in the game but in random locations of the lobby, some / most of them you can't interact with & they're mostly background characters like Out Of Bounds, out of the map, but you can see them from a distance. Therefore they're in the game, but it's lore friendly.
Example: Story mode's lobby could have Agent 4 with a charged rifle chilling in/on a tower, however there's no way to talk to them or interact with them. Maybe they're off in the distance just chilling or talking on their phone or doing aim training.
I personally like the idea of a agent 4 au where she went crazy do to an overwhelming fear of being abandoned and forgotten
“Agent 4 is just old Agent 3 again” and apparently smells better according to Marie (i.e. Agent 2)
for a first video this is amazing good job!!!!!
Tysm!!!
Honestly they are supposed to be a platoon Lots of room for agents. But If they are going to be their they should have their own personalities they already have unique outfits. Gives us more to talk to. And potentially give tips, tricks and maybe lore stuff. Older generation speaking to the older. Would be fun if their gear or speech differs like the slang or phrasings they use.
With Agent 4 I can see them hanging around Marie a lot.
It's stated that 4 was too busy doing curricular that's why she doesn't know who the squid sisters are, I hope shes featured in the DLC since she's my favorite agent
Yeahh but it goes without a doubt that the squid sisters popularity faded a bit. They don't even have any songs when splat 2 rolled around....
But yeah youre right, the reason 4 seriously doesn't know Squid Sisters is because that.
@@NackSploon true, I hope in splat3 both the squid sisters and off the hook atleast have their songs featured in the mini games like the rhythm game in the plaza in splat2
Maybe because I haven’t forgotten the character and I still really like him but I don’t feel he’s forgotten.
