My buddy- Abdopus acculeatus male #7. He loved to socialize and crawl around out of his aquarium. He was my favorite octopus- as you can see. I loved that part of my job. *no octopuses were harmed in the making of this photo. I was returning him to his aquarium after a cunning escape.
Latest Squid Sisters Live reminded me; I don’t think I’ve seen anyone mention or post up the bonus Backstage track from the Live in Makuhari album despite reguarly browsing the Splatoon and Squid Sisters tags since forever ago. Highlights include:
0:25 - Going into squid form after they leave the stage. Outside of the Mario Maker costumes and the Splatfest team UI, this is the first time they’ve actually used them in any ‘normal’ capacity.
0:36 - “Let’s get ready!” followed by a highfive and giggling to each other.
1:32 - Callie (?) goes into squid form and starts bubbling, maybe an ink patch in their backstage area?
1:40 - “Hurry up?” “Hurry up!”
1:45 - Cuttlefish comes in, and they joyfully yell out and swim up to him before they all walk off together.
this is called “Amaama to Inazuma” or “Sweetness and Lightning”
it is about a dad who is a school teacher and is trying to raise his daughter after his wife dies. one of the main things is he usually just buys her already made meals, but one of his students show’s him her mom’s restaurant and encourages him to learn how to cook

Apparently the daughter, Tsumugi’s, voice actress is only 11 and it’s just such a pure anime.
Rosenblum explains: ’If you spot an octopus and offer it a shell, depending on its living situation and mood, it may take it and move from its old container to your offered shell. But you better bring a good shell - they’re picky. If they don’t like what you’ve offered, they may toss it aside and stay hunkered down in their current dwelling.’
They usually prefer coconut husks, but hey, whatev’.
They are able to fit completely inside, but can also spread their arms and walk on the see floor with the shell.
