Splatoon 3 Side Order - Inkling Rendezvous [Full Ver.] 

Part 2!! It sounds Amazing!! ✨ I love all of the leitmotifs! The opening and the beat of Octoling Rendezvous, then opening beat for the Calamari Inkantation 3mix, then of course the chorus AND the verse of Calamari inkantation! I love how you made the notes sound like ones in Octoling Rendezvous, and there are parts from the actual Octoling Rendezvous in here! And you even added references to Ech0 0nslaught… And then the radio sounds from calamari inkantation, AND you added City of Color, like in the Spicy Calamari Inkantation!! All of the little details are amazing!! I especially love the Onward leitmotif, because almost every boss fight in Side Order has this reference! Did I also hear a reference to C0ld Storage at 1:35?! And 1:49 ?! Also, the sort of shouting at 1:52 reminds me of how in several squid sisters songs (such as City of Color and Ink me Up) they shout “Hey!Hey!Hey!” The amount of detail is this is SO cool and I loved trying to find the leitmotifs in here! In addition, the video was cool and I liked watching the videos on the screens turn on and off! Oh no, I’ve typed a paragraph haha…

Inner Agent 4 is potential trauma I didn't know the fandom could unlock

This vid gave 4 more screen time than splatoon did

WE WON, SPLATOON FANS

banger also the morse code at 0:36 translates to HELPME (it was a pain to manually transcribe it)

One word: Fresh

You know, it probably wasn't the intention with the art, but I feel that darkness could be a really cool mechanic for this theoretical fight. The arena itself is pitch black, only having your ink and the enemy's eyes producing light. The boss itself differentiates from inner agent 3 by being a lot more tricky and phase oriented. While the lights are out, Agent 404 (as I dubbed this boss) isn't actually in the arena, instead having 4 respawning copies that shift between trying to kill you and covering your ink to darken the arena. They wouldn't be super smart or difficult to kill, but are constantly respawning and hard to spot. In splatoon 2, octoling stages task you to destroy spotlights to free zapfish. In this case its the opposite, you have to find and turn on generators in the darkness. Once all 4 or 5 generators are turned on (probably by shooting them like the escort towers) the lights turn on and 404's shadow clones disappear, having you fight the real deal. The process resetting after each phase, but throwing a new twist every time. Probably wouldn't be as brutal of a fight as 3, but I think would be a cool unique battle with its own references to splatoon 2's campaign.

'Defeating memories that never happened' is a statement that goes insanely hard ngl

god this actually just sounds like we’re nothing but another octoling in agent 4’s way you captured that perfectly

PUTTING THIS BANGER ON MY PLAYLIST LET'S FUCKING GOOO-

She’s just standing there….MENACINGLY!

i like how all the screens in the back show agent 4 gameplay, then the bottom right for the entire video is just girl power station

Splatoon if the Octolings won the Great Turf War

Imagine how cool this would be as an Agent 8 boss theme, the song of her soldier days combining with the song that set her free from them

Agent 4 better return in some form for splatoon 4. I mean it's literally in the name.

dropping bangers like a pencil main dropping coolers

Thank you for doing Agent 4 justice, the Agent 4 fandom won’t forget you :3

bro thought he could sneak in girl power station and thought we wouldn't notice (all jokes aside this is a certified banger, keep cooking bro 🔥)

I love all the leitmotifs/references to other Splatoon songs used here. In the order they appeared: 0:00 Octoling Rendezvous intro, main rhythm/instrumentation references song throughout 0:03 Calamari Inkantation 3MIX intro 0:08 Calamari Inkantation leitmotif 0:41 Calamari Inkantation verse 0:51 Onward leitmotif 1:10 Ech0 0nslaught leitmotif 1:14 City of Colour leitmotif 1:25 C0ld St0rage leitmotif Also, given the context of the Calamari Inkantation, its presence in a simulation of what if the Octarians won makes it feel less like the liberating, positive force it is in the Splatoon series. It feels more like a protest, an active rebellion from the Inklings who - in this simulation - would have been oppressed just as the Octarians were. A rebellion crushed by the ruling Octarians, as their leitmotifs frequently interrupt or play over the inkling leitmotifs.

after a long wait, the splatoon song of the century is complete.

I love the idea of inner agent 4 as much as anyone else, but I am kind of glad it’s not a thing in game 1: side order wasn’t trying to be a complete repeat of Octo expansion. Doing the same secret final boss, even if it had some twists in the fight itself, would’ve just been repetitive. 2: be honest. Do you *really* want to go through that agony a second time? 3: we already have an inner agent 3 in splatoon 3. It’s called After Alterna. 4: with agent 4’s limited role in side order, it wouldn’t have made much sense for them to suddenly turn up as a secret final boss, unlike agent 3 where they’re referenced throughout the whole story. Not saying I _enjoy_ 4’s limited role in side order, but unless you wanna rewrite the story, I don’t see how it really fits together. But hey, who needs real dark souls-level boss fights when you have fanmade boss tunes?

I love the leitmotif integration! You did an amazing job making this sound like something you’d hear in game, to the point that you could convince someone that an inner agent 4 boss is hidden in Splat 3 somewhere.

OH MY GOD….. A SIDE ORDER REWRITE NEEDS TO HAPPEN AND INCLUDE THIS THAT WOULD BE SO AMAZING THE MUSIC BANGS SO MUCH ANHAJKEKHAHIEHIE

THE LEITMOTIFS ARE EVERYTHING

This could have been so fun and such a nice battle instead of just the parallel canon fight.

This goes insanely hard

I LOVE MY CALIMARI INKANTAION MOTIFS!!!!

I would crusade to have an inner Agent 4 fight.

1:23 Yeeeesssss!! I don't know if you were always going to put "Onward" in there, but thank you for doing it. This came out really nice. Congratulations on it :)

We making it out of side order with this one

I absolutely love Splatoon music and this is Splatoon music so I love it Also the thumbnail made it kind of look like an fnf mod

I really wish this was real. Agent 4 deserves a return, this theme perfectly encapsulates potential resentment from her being left behind. If we did have a Inner Agent 4 fight, this is the theme I'd pick for it, good work man! 🔥

YOO ITS AN INNER AGENT ME

AGAHGSH I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A VERSION OF OCTO REN LIKE THIS

What the Music for the Parallel Canon Bossfight should have been. The Music we got is pretty cool too but a Octoling Rendezvous Remix would have gone so hard

this is the best song ive ever heard

AGENT 4 FANS EATING TONITE!!!!!

Inner agent 4 have PTSD mode

You cooked so hard you did an amazing job!! You’re incredibly talented

This sounds amazing! I love the Calamari Inkantation leitmotifs :)

OMG HE DID IT CHAT!!!! ITS DONE!! AND ITS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!

god i love this so much

THIS IS SO FRESH!!! I love agent 4 sm thank you for ur service

I actually gasped when the city of colour tune turned into the octarian jingle at like 1:23

BRO YOU COOKED THE HELL OUTA THIS HOLY CRAP!!!! AMAZING STUFF

this has no business slapping this hard??!!! LIKE HELLO??!!?

didnt think we'd get a full version!!! good stuff!! been listening to the original since you dropped it!

WE WON! TIME TO LOOP THIS FOR HOURS.

AIYHFHHH IM GOING INSANE THIS IS SOOOOOO AWRSOME IM ACTUALLY FILLED WITH SO MUCH WHIMSY

This is the best splatoon fan song EVER. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

it can be assumed that this is supposed to be the opposite of octoling rendezvous, and since the calamari inkantation motifs were the main focus of the song, it would be interesting if octoling rendezvous could be considered a "hellish" melody bc the calamari inkantation is constantly referred to as "the heavenly melody". ik its not canon but just a random thought i had :3

Now we just need it going for half an hour.

DUDE THIS IS SICK!

this song makes me uncomfortable but I like it it reminds me of all those time I had to go through the courses fighting the octolings I always hated those courses it puts a sense of fear and nostalgia in me

Patience was key, thank you for cookin’

Man this is so cool! Time to listen to this on loop for the next 5 days XD

YOU DID IT YOU DID IT i love you and this so much

yoooo its finally done!!

YESSSSSS I was playing the sample on LOOP

BOI WE GETTING OUT THE MEMVERSE WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🗣️🗣️(absolute banger)

This is an absolute banger

Straight onto the splatoon playlist it goes! Thanks for making a full version 🎉

I almost forgot for a hot second Agent 4 and Neo Agent 3 are like the biggest outliers in Splatoon, they're the only agents who are just random civilians who got dragged into some pretty fucked up stuff.

YESSSSSSSS!!!!! BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSSSSSSSS!!! BOOYAHHHHHHH 🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑🦑

I wish this was actually in side order it’s so good!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY, As someone who started with splatoon 2, this means alot to me to hear and see, :D

Can I ask for a half hour of this beautiful jam?

I HAVE A A FEELING AGENTS 4 WOULD COME BACK IN SPLATOON 4...

BRO COOKED US A 4 COURSE MEAL

OMG THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE BANGER WOWOWWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOOWW THIS IS SO COOL NEW SUB EEEEEEEE

This is AWESOME, commenting to boost

I waited so long🥲

AAH-AAOOUUEE-AOH!

Tbh parallel canon is my favorite boss in side order. (Mainly because it’s in my opinion the easiest and most accessible by all the main weapons. Least favorite by far is asynchronous rondo because it a. Favors weapons with longer range and b. Somehow manages to show up every time I play roller.)

This is fire, great job on this! (This is going in my music playlist XD)

YESS A FULL VERSION

I love the _0444 on the screen

This is an absolute bop bro

This is stunning!!! You did such a good job with this

New favorite song real

YESSS IT'S OUTTTT THANK YOUUU

ITS PEAKK!!!!

HELLLLLLLLLL YEAHHHHHHHHHHH THE MOMENT WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FORRRRRRR

This is amazing i love it so much

Inner agent trauma everybody🦑

YESSS FINALLY ITS HERE MY LIFE IS COMPLETE NOW

FINALLYYYYYYYYY WE ARE SI BACK

here we are

Heck yea, I hoped something like this would be made

YEAHH SO FRESHHH IS THIS ON SPOTIFY I NEED TO ADD IT TO MY PLAYLIST RN

this is amazing

If this was real I would of lost my shit upon hearing this in battle. Amazing work!

That is super awesome!

THIS IS SUCH A BOP we goin back into the domes with this one /j

Imagine inner agent 4 being a lot harder then inner agent 3

whats splatoon slang for gangsta

this needs to be real fucking right now i wanna cry while fighting agent 4 (i never beat inner agent 3)

the song that plays when order [smollusk] fights you (tstpwofy) pronounced tos-stop-if-ie

Idea if this was an actual boss: (this takes a few ideas from another comment) The entire arena is pitch black, excluding your ink, and the enemies eyes. Agent 404 isn’t actually in the arena, they are spectating, with 4 shadow clones in their stead. The clones are about as smart as the octolings from story mode. There would be 4 power rerouters, their location shown by spotlights above them. The clones die immediately as they touch the light, but they can still shoot through the light. As the phase progresses, and your reroute more power, the spotlights become dimmer, their radius decreasing and the clones only taking damage over time while inside. Once all 4 rerouters have been activated, floodlights would fill the arena with light, instakilling all clones, and forcing 404 to fight. During phase 2 and 3, 404 will provide suppressive fire, via specials. Once you beat agent 404 3 times, All the power rerouters will shut down, having all the floodlights shut down, forcing you to fight 404 and their clones, in the pitch black night. Oh, and all the clones infinitely respawn. Have fun!

Splatoon 4 stands with 4 , I hope we could see her make a come-back with 3 and 8 , but 4 would be a sort of antagonist
