The Great Big Three-Group Summit: A Splatoon Collaboration
Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine (primarily distributed in Japan) features a six-page spread on the fictional musical acts within the Splatoon universe. The article centers on a collaborative interview, "The Great Big Three-Group Summit," bringing together:

- Off The Hook (Pearl and Marina)
- Squid Sisters (Callie and Marie)
The interview covers collaborations, festival performances, and candid reflections on their experiences within the Splatoon series. A highlight is Callie's recounting of Deep Cut's tour of Splatlands:
"The natural beauty of Scorch Gorge was breathtaking! And the Hagglefish Market was such a fun, bustling experience," Callie exclaimed. "Plus, those super-tall buildings! It was unforgettable!" Shiver responded, "We know where Splatlands truly shines."
Marie, ever the playful one, suggested a reunion for all the groups, teasing Callie about her sentimental attachment to the memory. She also reminded Off The Hook about their overdue teatime, prompting Marina to suggest a visit to a new sweets shop in Inkpolis Square, extending the invitation to Frye ("You're invited too, Frye. Let's settle the score from that karaoke battle!").
