| Is this for real? Bring on the memes |
  |
| Oh what, would have never expected an anime of Splatoon lol |
| It's probably 3- 5min shorts since it will be airing on August 12 on their youtube channel. Nintendo is going all in with anime adaptations. |
 |
| Oh boy, here comes more liquid splatter memes. |

| Wow, here's something I never expected to see. If they do end up being shorts, I can definitely understand the merit of doing this. Anime has been used as a medium of advertisement quite effectively for some time now, and with Nintendo at the head they can only benefit from this. Still, it's just an odd concept at its core. I don't really know a whole lot about the manga, but apparently it's coherent enough to develop a web series out of the material. |

| Nintendo and Masahiro Anbe was planning a collaboration once, could this be it? Third season of Ika Musume with the Inklings?! |
 |
| Wait whut I thought this was a kids friendly game. So you're telling me there's gonna be an anime now, don't know whether to be excited or not. |
 |
| Ehhhhh????? Well maybe it's just a web anime, but it'll work. I don't mind it being short and simple as long as it looks fun. Actually, this would be a great anime for over-the-top ridiculous comedy. August 12 on Youtube. I hope it goes well! |
 |
| I've always wondered if Splatoon was indeed a good game, or are people blowing it out of proportion because the Wii U had no games to play. |

CoroCoro Comic, where the manga is serialized, is a magazine aimed at elementary school children. The web anime will be no different in its target demographic. |
| When Nintendo said they wanted to do an anime, I was hoping for Metroid or Zelda. Splatoon...eh. I'm sure it'll be cute, but that's it. |

Whether they are up to your taste is the only thing debatable. And besides, Splatoon probably did get a boost for being a new Ip and being released during a drought of A grade games, sure. But Splatoon managed to not only sell more and more even months after it got released through word of mouth and it's support. It's online community is still healty even now. Those are achievements it accomplished on it's own strenght. Anyway, personally I love Splatoon, it got me or at the very least more interested into the shooting genre really. Something that game series like the popular Halo, CoD and whatever didn't achieve. Splatoon's style, weapon choices and gameplay mechanics are just so fun. Yet in ranked mode it can become immensely competitive. It just strikes an almost perfect balance of fun party gameplay and serious business. (Though Kraken/Bubbler special after receiving damaging is just hax) arsonal said: KamSung said: Wait whut I thought this was a kids friendly game.

| I am indiference about this title, but I thought the anime will be for Tv, It fits better for internet. |
| Why not ? In same time, that could be the beginning of Nintendo Anime ? No, the Zelda one don't exist. <_< (and i loved the Mario One) |
