♪ Into The Light ♫ Caitlin Koi Music Video - Splatoon 2 

Words can't express how satisfying it was to create this. It's bittersweet having Into The Light is my most popular video. On one hand I'm very proud of it for the music video portion. On the other hand, I have very much improved on making lyrics and implementing them into the video. So as you'll see, the video part is not much different. There are a few changes and added footage, but mostly it was the lyrics that I wanted to change. Have them take up less space, and just be better lyrics after much of the critique I got. AND, watermarks. ProsafiaGaming actually has watermarks on his videos already, but I still thought his were hard to see down in the bottom right. Old version for comparison: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QdJCh4w45fU.html

"I think that the greatest thing about music is that it has the power to go beyond differences in species and language. It makes you want to root for someone you’ve never met before." -Marina

I love the youth on a mountain line because Pearl and Marina met on a mountain

"Same things that make us laugh, make us cry." -Big Smoke

"Come into the light" "NO" "why?" "THE SUN IS A DEADLY LAZER"

Friend: Dont go into the light! Me, a Splatoon intellectual: *Lol no ima go in it.*

I always heard "you're the morning dew" as "you're there for me, too". Just thought I'd share. :)

This game. This dlc. This ending. Broke me down to my most vulnerable in my darkest time. Made me feel happy to accomplish something grand. I teared up with fresh start, but no. I cried when I first beat octo expansion. Thank you splatoon 2. I hope I can repay you in any way at some point.

The thing I love abt is not only the song but the fact that Pearls voice is a lot lower not just for the vibes but she just screamed her heart out. It brings such an attention to detail

honestly, i know nobody's going to read this but tbh. this game made me cry. especially when the final stage was turf war and, god, agent 8 is so precious. this game and just, games in general are one of the fondest memories i have of my brother before we lost him. in a way he went into the light and,, as much as i want him back, its the happy little things like this that even when i'm crying that make me pull through god i'm waiting for karen to say video games cause violence rn to anybody wondering how my sobbing is going, we had his celebration of life recently! i've graduated, and although times are still tough sometimes i just got splatoon 3 and i'm ready to roll! while i do wish i could've played it with him, it's still a very fond feeling

i really like how the lyrics sound as if pearl and marina made the song for eight, though i don't know if that was intentional

Nintendo couldn't have created a better song for the credits than Into the light. And no one could write those lyrics better than you. 💕

Splatoon 3 is just 4 days left and this song sounds so nostalgic already

I’m really late, but this song seriously makes me feel so many emotions, happy? Sad? Both? I know the way I feel isn’t very different from anyone else, but I can’t help but feel the same way everytime I listen to it. I never thought I’d come to love these characters and the game itself so much, man, what emotions can do to you.

Nintendo: no one can beat my lyrics! Caitlin Koi: hold my woomy

coming back to this at the darkest part of my life (no not making a joke on the title), just hearing it makes me feel slightly better

Seeing Pearl saying “See the Youth on the Mountain” Seems like a reference to how pearl and marina met on a mountain and I think that it’s really sweet. GJ with the lyrics!

Marina's voice is so beautiful!😍

Yes officer, this video right here IT STOLE MY 3 HEARTS!!! 😭❤️🐙

I know probably no one will read this, and that’s why I’m pulling It out from my chest right now. This song is extremely nostalgic for me. It shows how time flies by so fast. I remember playing octo expansion with my parents, explaining all the lore to my best friend, drawing them in sunny saturdays. It seemed like everything was just fine. I started playing it after a very hard time of my life, and I believe splatoon 2 truly was my light. I was bullied during my childhood, and when I finally moved on from that, I got splatoon 2 for my birthday, and then everything got better from there. It really made me reconsider if I could have my childhood back, and I truly did. I was obsessed with it. It was a childish addiction that I never had since I got bullied for a long time. I feel like the octo expansion really was a fresh start for my life. The good times started there. My confidence, my happiness, everything, and I couldn’t thank splatoon 2 more for that.

I'm gonna be honest, I never plaued Splatoon but I love it, I'm poor. This is my favourite song. I went back and search for this music again for nostalgic. I can't believe it's been like 1 year or 1 years and a half has been pass. This game is so damn amazing I love everything.

I cried the first time I heard this ;w;

In summary: a cleaner and better version of into the lights other video I really like it

3:15 “Stars shine” literally just 3 passed out

When I reached the credits, I can’t believe I literally cried. All this is is a nice little melody with kid’s cartoon squid people glubbering along to the song, but I literally cried.

I love the glow effect on the lyrics! And the changes to the video and lyrics are super nice too ^^

POV: 3 years later I’m still vibing to this song because it’s so stress relieving and I’m never gonna grow out of it

1:25 i've always heard this part as: "We sure did have fun, we'll met again" "We need to move on, stay safe" "When new stars arrive, "Remember us both" "Come into the light, don't fly to the sky"

Lyrics To Sing Easier: Pearl: Yeah You There, Be A Star, We Will Always Need You. You Know That, They Don't Need You No More, Oooh. Is That All? So They Know, So Are You Letting Go? So Am I, I Shoot For The Sky. We Want That. Marina: Needing Light. Pearl: I Don't Mean To Say That.. Marina: You're Colder. Pearl: You Can Laugh You Way Through, Yeah. In The Night. Marina: Through The Moon. Pearl: So Now You Have The Day, Both: Cause I Know You. You're The Morning Dew. Marina: We'll Show What You Are, Coming On In. We Need You Both To Stay. So We'll Fight For You All Night All I Want, Falling Through The Light, I'll Shoot For The Sky. Both: Well Show What You Are, Pulling On, Yeah. We Know What You Owe. Star Shine. So Well Fight For You, Marina: Oh Yeah, All I Want, Both: Come Into The Light, I'll Shoot For The Sky. Pearl: Yeah, Still Holding You. You Know Me, I Do What You Know Me For, Me, I'm Out For The Octos. She's Alive , And So A Mission, Need Hope. And So That's A' Why I'm On Fire. See The Youth On The Mountain So You Know That They Need Hope. Share Your Might, Marina: Even Now, Pearl: Get A Little Summin'-Summin' She Will Think Of Me Marina: You're Colder, Pearl: Could It Be A Soul Selling Out To You? So Yeah, Tongue-Tied A Few Minutes Ago, Marina: Through The Moon, Pearl: Stepping Out Funny, I'm So Cool, Marina: That Cool Soul In You, Pearl: That's The Money, Yo! Marina: You're The Morning Dew! Pearl: Time To Do Out Little Show, Let's Go! Marina: Loving, Oh Yeah. Star Shine. Now That All I Want, Comes In Through The Light, I'll Shoot For The Sky. Its Not What You Are, Moving On, Yeah. We Imagine All, Star Shine. So We Fight For You, Oh Yeah, All I Want, Come Into The Light, I'll Shoot For The Sky. Pearl: Come Into The Light, I Shoot For The Sky. Marina: Got The Sun In You, You're The Morning Dew. Both: Come Into The Light, I'll Shoot For The Sky.

3:06 I love how Pearl moves in beat with the song, it's honestly strangely mesmerising

I remember it perfectly, 2018 at the night playing the octo expansion for 5 hours and then keep finishing levels... Now with splatoon 3 out I'm still using the same avatar as my 2018 me, the basic octoling hair with light skin and turquoise eyes, even knowing splatoon 3 story mode is so well made, the octo expansion vibe, feelings and memories will always be my fav splatoon experience for the long future of the series, I'm glad I knew about splatoon existance, I would be someone completely different, I grew up with splatoon and splatoon grew with me, so I'm glad of all that happy memories I have from my experience since 2015, I hope I never stop being tuned to the saga even on my future

2:16 The instrumental is the best part for me. Nostalgic, relaxing, kinda wanna cry to it.

Pearl made me cry her singing is amazing 😱😱😱

Is it me or does the *lighting* in the game and cutscenes look even better in this video. IM NOT MAKING A PUN *IM SERIOUS!*

This song right here is a tear jerker🥲😢

This is why octo expansion was the best. Not just because you play as an octoling for the first time, but because of the music. The music in this series is just magical.

Yay! The replaced lyrics make more sense and are easier to hear great job! Also 1:21 You used my suggestion yay !

Pearl's voice is adorable, Marina's voice is beautiful

This was a masterpiece 4 years ago.. And after 4 years it still is.

How far we have come, in life and Splatoon lore wise surprises me how much has really changed since the first game. The fun child game we all loved and now it is this huge game and has more then we seen as kids.

this is the best translating of octo/inkling voices I've seen and the lyrics just feel right. This is AMAZING! [ oh my god it got liked by Caitlyn Koi! I like ur vids caitlyn!]

Omg!!! This is my favorite song in the entire game and I'm literally crying from happiness right now! 😭 #OctolingsForLife

ahh. I remember playing Splatoon with my friends all day as long as possible. I remember when we hit S+. Prestige too. The DLC. Just the sheer amount of memories that this video gives me. I shared it with my best friend that I used to duo with. I remember the hype for Splatoon 3 ( Although it flopped. ) I remember the Agent 3 fight. The Boo-Yah from pearl. I tried Splatoon 3. It had been about 2 years since I touched Splatoon 2. I was quite rusty. However I tried, but it didn't feel the same. I listen to this song every day on repeat for hours. Just reminiscing on the good ol' days with me and my OG friend group. Not to say that I don't like my current one. But I miss the old one, I miss the memories. And this is one of the best things on RU-vid. like the saying, "The internet can be a wonderful place, but it can also be a terrible place." I love how you can just pour your heart on onto the computer and share it with other people even if they don't care. Its like a invisible therapist. Its a place to store memories. Things that we won't forget. I still can't believe that this video was 4 years ago. I remember watching it when it came out like it was just yesterday. I listened to it all day like I am now. I don't think I have anymore to say. I still remember the Final Splatfest. I chose Chaos like most kids lol. If I were to go back I would've definitely chosen order. At the time I didn't care about the Thank You at the end for playing the game. I remember that I didn't care because I was so sure that because of the success of this game there would definitely be a Splatoon 3. I remember the stress every time I logged on when the news would play and remind you of useless things unless there were new items... If you read this far thanks for taking the time to. If ya got any questions I'll be happy to answer them lol.

this dlc is so sweet, it just gives me 90's retro style thats why i love splatoon it gives me close future vibe, and also it gives me 90's vibes also pearl sounds calm here

What's that feeling called when a video has 2.3 million views and yet still feels like it deserves more?

2:57 I love the way she said star shine

Meanwhile at the cabin: *sheldon were did i leave my rainmaker shorts*

30th time watching this and I realized that something, the reason the Squidlings reigned supreme over the Octolings is because there are way more squids in the ocean, so they were largely outnumbered in The Great Turf War.

You really amaze with this video. I thought the original looked perfect, but you somehow made it even better. Amazing work, Caitlin.

I love Marina's voice so much with these lyrics!!

2:16 gives me chills every time it's not even funny

I just realized octoling girl saved the world while wearing heels what an absolute unite

"Cause i know you, you're the morning dew" love it!!!

WOW!!! I’ve never played the “Splatoon” series. (I “low-key” regret it). But this video makes me feel something I can’t even explain. 🤧🤧 Thx Caitlyn Koi for such an AMAZING video!!! I couldn’t have asked for any better. 🤩🤩 God Bless U!!! 🙏🙏

[2 years ago] I listened to this song on my way to the first day of Year 7 [Now] I listened to this on my first day to school as a female This song has grown with me, and I've grown with it, and no matter how much I listen to it, it never gets old Don't get cooked and stay off the hook, -Aisha

The first notes of this song are just ✨✨✨✨✨✨ AAHHHH like this is one of my fav songs

3:29 Captain Cuttlefish just had heart attack

Having this be a year ago feels unreal, splatoon has changed me in the best way possible.

i cant watch this rn i dont wanna cry

3:21 MARINA LOST PHYSICS for real her hair stays up

these lyrics are so clear??? especially the “you’re colder”

Love how instead of "VEVO" is says"VEMO"!very creative!

This sounds so stupid but I've cried so much over this dumb squid music I had gone through online school without any connection to my friends, not knowing if I'd ever see them again (due to school testing/applications.) I was stressed all the time and it would take me hours of procrastinating to get myself to do just a small bit of work. I was going to miss the last year of being at this school, where I had so many friends and memories, where I should've gone on the trip of my life. I was supposed go to celebrate, go to parties, do everything with closure. I would watch your videos all the time because something about the lyrics really resonated with me, especially this one and Fresh Start. I still sulk about how my year ended, where I was sobbing from stress instead of running and laughing on the field. I absolutely adore this song but I'm doing my best to not watch it. The amount of nostalgia I get from this is something I want to experience years down the road. I'm in a much better place now. I'm a straight A student, trying to (maybe) get the highest award for my school year. I have so many friends and I'm moving on. Thank you for giving me an outlet for all those messy things :)

0:39 is my favorite line. the 'You know that' is so satisfying for me to hear...

The lyrics make perfect story sense. pearl helping marina, are little show, starts playing color pulse, then helping agent 8

It’s fun to imagine that the pink color is Agent 8, and the blue is 3. Great video by the way Caitlin! I loved it and I even shed a few tears!

This is what I love about games. You actually feel like your the character your playing, and when a character is relying on your character. It’s like the character is relying on you. When you succeed and make a person in your game happy you get this tingly feeling of joy.

I like to imagine that Agent 8 went on a journey with Off the Hook to liberate all Octolings. She fought harder than any of them to win her freedom and wants that same freedom for the rest of her kind

For no reason, absolutely no reason. This song has boosted my confidence so much and it has made my day. Thank you, Caitlin.

When the into the light credits scene played after I beat octo expansion, I was dying on the inside. Hours and hours of effort and fun put into it beating every level over 3 times with each weapon, reading through all the mem cakes for no reason… I miss those days man. I hope the splatoon 3 dlc is as good as octo expansion. The whole concept of a second story mode is really cool in my opinion. It’s been almost 9 years since splatoon 1 was announced, it still holds a special place in my heart. Thank you splatoon 2, for all the memories ❤️

3:13 watch out to your big head dude! We imagine fall Stars shine

Bro Splatoon 3's campaign needs to be as epic as the Octo expansion. I really liked the story and how it was told in there. Then the missions were actually challenging and the last level was tense, it was truly special

I really like it!!! The lyrics seemed to have had a good polish XD

The original into the light was the first ever video I saw on this channel it’s nice to see you remake it :) Just for nostalgia for the original video The good part 0:00-4:24

whenever i hear this song im crying, but not in a sad way, its just.... so perfect. the entire game made me cry like this. the whole storyline, the battles, the encouragement, the music, everything about this will be held in my heart the rest of my life

im gonna miss this game

"Son why are you crying so damm loud" Me:

Its like a off the hook version of "maritime memory"and i like it!😊

I will always find this song as my happy place, I remember my family and I driving through Galveston during the summer while I had my headphones in and was listening to this song while looking out the window at the beach. Will never forget it

I love how pearl raps for this song, but still makes it fit with a calm song like this Top 10 rappers eminem was too afraid to diss

The only splatoon song that nearly made me cry and that is hard for a game to do to me

I feel like a child again, as well as sad, this song is so bittersweet for me, reminds me of all of the 450+ hours I played Splatoon, along with my friends, and all the times I got salty, and all the splats I got with my beloved Tri bucket Crying rn

Time to cry 💔

As someone who is also a run away from a military society, I relate to this song so much. The feeling of freedom, relief and imagination that come as soon as you realize everything you’ve done, all you’ve fought for wrong and right, you finally made it to your dreams. If I was born to be a soldier, then I live to be fresh.

Aaah!! This video is my weakness, how could I have been defeated by such beauty and perfection!?

Sees the end of octo expansion: t-this b-brings back memories

And she did all that in heels

This song hit me right in the feels, I remember playing splatoon 2 for the first time, the dlc is what made it fun, we got to see another story, my big bro cheered me on cause he was happy to see the game I've been talking about for a long time, we shared good memories together while we both worked together on this, I will never forget the happy look on his face when I finally beat the dlc and unlocked the cute octoling I played as, he is currently alive but he lives in a different state now, I miss him so much and hope he comes to visit me when splatoon 3 comes out

I know I’m late to the party... but damn this is an amazing vid Edit: Tysm for the heart! ❤️

This is such a beautiful song and my favourite splatoon 2 song.

This song has a special place in my heart, it's the perfect song for an ending to something great or challenging. Nintendo makes such amazing songs, but they act like their ashamed of them from how much they protect their IP and don't want to broadcast them. Also, that 16-bit segment sounded like something out of Knuckles' Chaotix

This game means so much to me I was 11 when it came out and I’m 17 now definitely my fave game of all time looking back at it now

^^ Outstanding Job girl! I adore how good, and fitting the lyrics are!!! Take your time on the next one! Your beloved fans are patient lil' beans UwU

I’ve been on the floor crying for about 30 minutes because of this

Now this is a work of ✨art✨

This is such a beatifull game😍

tried listening to splatoon music after a long time again and this is the first song that came on This hit so hard

This songs still gives me chills and I've probably listened to it over 100 times

NAAHH fr though almost made me cry lmao. best splatoon song i know rn, thanks for this

Thank you splatoon 2 for all the fun you've offered. Onto splatoon 3.
