I love the Splatoon manga series!!! Very cute and unique and the characters have their own cute personalities!!! Story is awesome and has a great message to it as well!! I totally recommend this series for any Splatoon fan or manga fan!!! I love it so much!!! Thank you!!!

Got series 1-3 and three for my grandson and he loves them

I enjoyed this book quite a lot. Don't recommend for children, but its very good.

Great book and addition to the series! If your a fan of the game you will enjoy it!

Pretty funny ongoing manga. They have almost resolved the first arc by this point and I'm still really enjoying it.

Even though a new story arc, old characters return from past volumes. Best to read in order or release. Re-living Hero Mode in the main story campaign in Splatoon 1 game, but with the manga characters. Very brief in terms of story compared to the game. Only see battle between some octolings, and first boss of the game, and against DJ Octoavio The cast then meets up with a new character Gloves who carries duelies as main weapon and has a new trendy fashion sense This in turn, transitions into Splatoon 2, where team Blue enters a new tournament == Now onto impression of the manga series as a whole (up to volume 4). Book reads from right to left. In black and white. No color except for front and back cover. Very disappointing since the game has huge emphasis on color (due to ink). Instead, a lot of exposition is involved in stating colors and names (some inklings look the same with exception of clothes). Art work in general is very good, not as great as the 2D promo art for the game, but decent enough that it makes for a enjoyable read. Character names are simple and based off of what they wear to better distinguish them from one another since some inklings look the same and the fact that there's no color panels Very basic in terms of explaining game mechanics. Focuses more on characters and comic relief. Manga has unorthodox ways of winning matches. Similar to how the Pokemon anime vs game where Ash tells his pokemon to do a move that not even possible in game. Pokemon example: Tells Pikachu to grab onto Onix's head and use thunderbolt as if it's a lighting rod, or ask Bulbasaur to vine whip a side of a mountain to create an avalanche to make a distraction, making the opponent's pokemon to look the other way then tell Bulbasaur to use razor leaf followed by tackle to finish it off when the opponent's pokmeon isn't looking. Anyway back to Splatoon. Some examples of this in the manga series are: -Riding on a point brush, while using a splattershot -Dodge seeker bombs between legs -Throw teammates while in a bubble shield at opponents -Use food as distraction Manga does not focus on a epic quest to save the world like in the main campaign of the video games. Focus is more on characters and matches with the moral of the story being friendships and having fun vs being serious and competitive. There are some reoccurring themes in the manga like showing off main protagonist (Googles) always snacks on pickled plums, how he like to pull down inklings pants. There are some nudity in the manga, but it's censored by splatoon logo and done so in a comic fashion Format in most volume include: 3-4 story chapters, 1 prequel or filler and an almanac on newly introduced characters Summary of volumes I've read: Volume 1: Intro to main group, S4 and world building Volume 2: Continuation of S4 rivalry. End of story Arc Volume 3: Boss battle battle with main villain Splatoon 1 (game) New fashion/weapons. Intro to Splatoon 2 Prelims of new tournament Volume 4: Build up to semi finals. Go into the formidable Emperor character Crusty Sean shop/exploration of Inkopolis Square

My daughter loves this series. Great comic book for kids who love Splatoon!

Good buy

My favourite part was when goggles woomy all over the turf and won the battle (sorry for the spoiler)

i’ve seen many people complaining about it being wrong, yet you read the book backwards.

Polecam

Llegó rápido y con una bolsita como se ve en la foto, recomendado, no tiene ningún detalle más que lo usual de las esquinas, se siente delicado pero con un buen cuidado durará mucho. Nota: Aún no lo abro porque voy a empezar a leer el primero :).

Great comic book (more like a small novel in pages actually) of the splatoon series. It’s been translated from the Japanese originals so the book and comic panels read from right to left. Have to get used to that at first. The art inside is not in colour at all, so it’s printed in greyscale tones and on somewhat sandy paper. The cover is quite nice though, printed in bright colours and thick shiny paper. If you’re a fan of the series, give these a go.
