Boo-YAAAAAAHHHHHH!
— Pearl's battle cry from theOcto Expansion

Pearl Houzuki is a major character introduced inSplatoon 2. She is one of the two members of the bandOff the Hook, along withMarina. InSplatoon 2, she co-hostedInkopolis News andSplatfestevents, replacing the role of theSquid Sisters fromthe first game. She returns inSplatoon 3 as a member ofDamp Socks feat. Off the Hook. Additionally, she is a major character in the DLCsingle-player campaignsOcto Expansion (Splatoon 2) andSide Order (Splatoon 3). In the latter, she appears in an alternate form called thePearl Drone. Her signature color is light pink.

She is voiced byRina Itou.

Appearance

Pearl resembles a stereotypical Japanese "pop princess". She has pale skin and appears shorter than mostInklings, something she is defensive about. Her shoulder-length tentacles are creamy-white with pink tips and a small bang, although they can change to completely one color like other Inklings. She has light golden eyes with pale yellow pupils in the shape of a cross, round cream eyebrows, and a beauty mark at the bottom right of her lips. Like Marina, and unlike other Inklings, she has one sharp tooth in the top middle of her mouth instead of the usual two. Her ears, which are slightly smaller than those of the average Inkling, are usually covered by her hair.

Her outfit consists of a pearly white sleeveless dress, white shorts, and pink tights. The dress has a high collar, a large golden zipper on the front with a cut out cross similar to her pupils, and features a slanted diamond-like pattern at the bottom right. Her shoes are white, slightly platformed boots with large golden zippers and black soles. She also wears black fingerless gloves and a white crown with pink tips on her head that resembles a squid ring tooth. DuringSplatfests, the pink in her design changes to match the color of her chosen team, except for her crown which only changes in artwork. The diamond-like pattern on her dress lights up in sync with the music. According to her Inkopolis News dialogue, this outfit and Marina's matching one were designed by a graduate of Inkblot Art Academy.[5]

In theOcto Expansion, she wears a more hip-hop-style attire than her pop stage outfit. She wears a golden jeweled crown on her head, a long golden chain necklace with a cross pendant (like her zippers on her stage outfit) around her neck, multiple golden rings on her fingers on both of her hands, a pastel pink baggy hoodie with cream sleeves, and rainbow metallic platform shoes. This outfit is noted as being reminiscent of the rapperThe Notorious B.I.G.. Thegear items given out by the Pearlamiibo are replicas of Pearl'sOcto Expansion outfit, named thePearlescent Crown,Pearlescent Hoodie, andPearlescent Kicks.

During theFinal Fest, Pearl donned a special black and gold outfit, with her tentacles having a black gradient for the occasion. She wore a black crown with its points slightly bent in one direction; on her face was a black arrow-shaped mark that crossed her left cheek, eye and forehead. Its tail had three points, symbolizing a stylized squid. She wore a black, sleeveless dress that gets bigger at the bottom, with a brown piece that had a gold cross symbol on her chest; the bottom of the dress had golden fish-scale spikes pointing to the right. She also wore leggings with a black-to-gold gradient, black boots with spikes on their sides, and her usual gloves.

InSplatoon 3, Pearl has a new outfit with a thin, plain gold crown, translucent pale orange sunglasses that bear a slight resemblance toOctoling Shades, an oversized white puffy jacket with a gold zipper, a thin orange stripe on the collar and sleeves and an Off the Hook logo on the right shoulder, and a knee-length gold sequin dress with a deep purple interior, mirroring that ofMarina's jacket. The front of her jacket bears several patches (including one that appears to be based on theNASA logo, depicting a yellow squid-shaped arrow passing through a red "A"-shaped icon on a blue starry background) and two large, rectangular pockets on the bottom. In Off the Hook's character artwork forSplatoon 3, the NASA-like patch on the front of Pearl's jacket is absent, replaced by a simplistic X shape. Pearl additionally wears her usual gloves, black stockings, and white lace-up boots with golden midsoles and white soles that have theOff the Hook logo on the bottom. When performing duringSplatfests, Pearl wears the same outfit as inSplatoon 2.

In the artwork for theSuffer No Fools music video, Pearl wears a simple, hip-hop styled outfit consisting of a large black hoodie with Off the Hook's wordmark in gold on it, a gold chain necklace with a pendant shaped like an upside down number 2, and white sports shoes with black and orange details. Her tentacles have a golden gradient and she wears no crown, instead wearing a black piercing-like ring on her left front tentacle.

DuringSpringFests, Pearl wears a Gothic metal-inspired outfit with a spiky dark purple crown and studded collar alongside her usual gloves, and a long, low-cut black T-shirt with a white design that represents an Inkling and an Octoling's tentacles side by side. The straps of her top are visible over her otherwise bare shoulders. She wears fishnet stockings over black pantyhose, and high platform boots with chains wrapped around the ankles and skull designs on the tongues. The tips of Pearl's tentacles feature pastel green spots.

DuringSummer Nights, Pearl wears a black version of her usual dress and boots, accompanied by her usual gloves and dark gray tights; her crown is replaced by a black mesh baseball cap with a holographic studded front, while her left front tentacle has a piercing-like ring on it, similar to her appearance in the music video for the songSuffer No Fools. Her tentacles have a gradient to purple, matching Marina's.

For theGrand Festival, Pearl wears a whitepeaked cap with silver studs around it and a metal Off the Hook logo at the center atop an oval black plate, a white crop top with a harness on top of a mesh T-shirt, white puffy shorts, and matching combat boots with three buckled beige strips on the sides.

For theWizard vs. Knight vs. Ninja Splatfest, Pearl wears an alternate version of herFinal Fest outfit, though it lacks the squid tattoo over her left eye. Her leggings also featured a black-to-pink gradient.

For theMoney vs. Experiences vs. Presents Splatfest, Pearl wears an alternate-color version of herOcto Expansion outfit, with her hoodie being white with periwinkle blue sleeves while her chain necklace and crown are silver. The spots on her tentacles are colored in a bright white to aqua gradient.

Childhood

As shown in the first Sunken Scroll found inSplatoon 2's story modeOcto Canyon, Pearl is implied to have had a humanoid childhood appearance not unlike that of the Squid Sisters, instead of the squid-like one most Inklings have as children.

As a child, Pearl had longer tentacles and is shown wearing a magenta dress with a high white collar, and a smaller version of her crown on the left side of her head instead of the right.

Personality and traits

Pearl speaks rather bluntly and uses various slang terms, in line with her characterization as a rapper (despite her "pop princess" appearance). Compared toMarina, Pearl is a lot more energetic, expressive and quick to jump onto a topic with a bit of a short temper and a knack for composing new songs as they come to her. Often her comments can be playfully sarcastic, playing off Marina. She can also be quite brash, but is usually very friendly and means well in the end. Her lively attitude is most obvious if the player looks at her through the window, as she looks at them quizzically before striking a pose. When she wins aSplatfest, she often boasts how her team was better in the form of a rap, which she insists she makes up on the spot. She has been described sarcastically by Marina as "starved for attention, yet full of [herself]".

She comes from a very rich family, which reflects in her attitude and appearance. Among her several possessions, she owns a go-kart, a private jet, the baseball "Inkopolis Princess League", and a fitness studio.[6] She also still gets an allowance despite having a job, has personal shoppers forMakoMart, and owns a vegetable garden in front of her house that must be watered using her helicopter with an exclusive jellyfish pilot, as well as having a lemon tree orchard and at least three shoe rooms in her house, one of which is soundproof.

Her Splatfest choices show her to gravitate towards mostly outgoing things, such asAction,Adventure, andFilm. Indeed, she has difficulties with sitting still, leading her to fidget and walk around during recordings. She's shown to be impatient and dislikes when things get "too quiet". She also has a quirky side, as she has mentioned that she eats breakfast cereal with a fork and has a pool full of imported mayonnaise.

Due to being born with uniquely developed vocal cords, Pearl's voice operates at two thousand times the frequency required to produce "mind-blowing" waves. As a result, it can create massive shockwaves and destroys audio equipment when she sings, leading her fans to nickname her the "club destroyer".[2]Sunken Scroll 1 shows an incident in which a young Pearl destroyed various parts of the Youth Folk-Singing contest, andMarina's chat room has a clip during a heavy metal concert in which glass is heard shattering. To mitigate the effect, Marina mixes backing tracks in order to prevent Pearl from destroying her audio systems.[2] When fully warmed up[a] and amplified by thePrincess Cannon, Pearl's shockwave is concentrated into a powerful laser able to counteract the NILS statue's mostly-charged cannon. As a result of this tremendous power, Pearl chooses to practice away from civilization onMount Nantai.

While it is unclear if Pearl reciprocates Marina's crush on her, Pearl is nonetheless very protective of Marina, even after being told byCap'n Cuttlefish of Marina's true nature as anOctoling. Upon receiving the news, she remained loyal to Marina, even threatening violence against Cap'n Cuttlefish if he ever dared to splat her bandmate. She considers meeting Marina the best gift she has ever received.[8] Pearl is also fond ofAgent 8, who she nicknames as 'Eight', happily noticing them before Marina does and striking a more flourished pose in direct contrast to her reaction to the standard playable Inkling. However, she is shown to dislike Sheldon due to her finding him boring, calling him that in theMayo vs. Ketchup Splatfests' announcements. She also says that she would "rather watch ink dry...at the post office...WITH SHELDON" than watching soccer in theBaseball vs. Soccer announcement, as well as suggesting to Marina that they should cover his house in toilet paper as a Halloween prank, albeit only in localizations.

Her preferred personal pronoun in Japanese is アタシatashi, which is an informal female form commonly used by young women and girls. She also uses many slang terms as well as childish speech patterns (like replacing "sh" sounds with "ch" sounds), giving the air of a little girl trying to act tough. She speaks almost exclusively in the informal speech (タメ語/タメ口tame-go/tame-guchi), further emphasizing her "street" style. Her text extends syllables very often (with the "ー" character compared to Marina's "~", mirroring the same difference between Callie and Marie), and she ends many sentences with the particles "よ", "ぜ" and even "ぞ", which not only makes her text read as energetic and curt but also as if she is rapping her lines. In the Japanese version of the game, Pearl is referred to by Marina as 先輩 (senpai), an honorific used when addressing an elder with the same social standing or when addressing someone more experienced in a field or trade. Her usage of the term indicates that Pearl is looked up to by Marina, either as a respectable figure more experienced than her in the music industry and/or the Inkling world, as Marina grew up among the Octarians, or because Pearl is older than her by three years.

Pearl's favorite weapon class appears to bedualies. She frequently mentions using these weapons when presenting stages currently in rotation, and additionally mentions dodge-rolling in dialogue forNew Albacore Hotel. This is further confirmed inSide Order, as herPalette comes with theOrder Dualies. She more specifically seems to appreciate theEnperry Splat Dualies, as she is seen posing with them in promotional art for theAction vs. ComedySplatfest.

History

Early life

A young Pearl.

Pearl hails fromCalamari County[2] and was born into an exceedingly rich family, something that came across in a lot of stories about her childhood, such as being able to easily afford top-of-the-range musical equipment and receiving a ship identical to theManta Maria for her sixth birthday. She also met the 'Lord of The Lake' who ownsPiranha Pit. Pearl was interested in music from an early age, taking part in anInkopolis Youth Folk-Singing Contest and causing some destruction with the power of her voice.

Pearl later attempted to start a musical career of her own, and despite having little to no idea how to write music, she insisted her heart was in the right place. She eventually became known as a heavy metal singer, demonstrating a notably more vulgar side with her song#$@%* Dudes Be #$@%* Sleepin' (Live), which garnered some fans but never went beyond that.

Pearl's solo career.

While practicing her potentially dangerous voice onMount Nantai less than two years before the events ofSplatoon 2, Pearl metMarina, a newly-defectedOctoling, and the two quickly bonded. Pearl never learned of Marina's past, believing her to be a "country bumpkin", and taught Marina the ways of Inkling society. After meeting each other again, the two became friends, with Marina demonstrating her musical abilities with a demo ofEbb & Flow. After hearing this, Pearl agreed to form a band with her, which led to her fully establishing herself in the public consciousness upon the formation ofOff the Hook. They releasedEbb & Flow as their first single, and it was a hit. By the time of their fourth single, around nine months after the events ofSplatoon, they had become popular enough to take over hostingInkopolis News from theSquid Sisters.

Splatoon 2

By the time ofSplatoon 2, Off the Hook had become famous inInkopolis Square for their music and for presenting Inkopolis News, in which Pearl had a similar relationship with Marina asCallie had withMarie. Their work included hostingSplatfest events, announcing the themes and singing and dancing toColor Pulse for the event's duration. Across all regions, Pearl and Marina won 29 Splatfests each.

Although Pearl and Marina did not make appearances duringOcto Canyon, they were the first to break the news of Callie and theGreat Zapfish's disappearances. They also announced their rescue on Inkopolis News, fulfilling a request by "Freshly Fried Boy" to playFresh Start over the credits.

Octo Expansion

During theOcto Expansion, Pearl and Marina stumbled uponCap'n Cuttlefish andAgent 8 by overhearing their radio transmission. Learning that they were trapped in theDeepsea Metro, attempting to escape toInkopolis, they promised to help them out. The three acted as Agent 8's guides during the tests, while they also talked inMarina's chat room, where Pearl was known as "MC.Princess". This chat room was used by the group to learn about their respective pasts. When discussing with Cuttlefish about Marina's technological achievements, Pearl finally discovered her history as a member of theOctarian army, and despite being deeply shocked, she promised to remain friends with her. Later, Pearl revealed to Marina and Cuttlefish how Inkopolis Square was beginning to become populated with more Octolings and eased Cuttlefish's worries about his old enemies.

After Agent 8 collected all fourthangs and escaped from the Deepsea Metro, Off the Hook finally met them and Cap'n Cuttlefish in person after their battle with a brainwashedAgent 3. When the Telephone revealed itself asCommander Tartar, who wants to destroy Inkopolis, Pearl's "battle cry" was instrumental in defeating it. AfterAgent 8 covered theNILS Statue in ink from Marina'shyperbombs, Pearl used herPrincess Cannon to finish it off. With the threat averted, the group returned safely to Inkopolis Square.

Splatoon 3

Pearl returns inSplatoon 3, along with Marina, in the bandDamp Socks feat. Off the Hook. They perform the songsCandy-Coated Rocks andTentacle to the Metal. She can be faced inTableturf Battle after completingSide Order.

While Pearl and Marina were confirmed to have separate homes in Japanese dialogue for Action vs. Comedy and the Pearl interview in the Octotune booklet, and also stated in the North America-only Unicorn vs. Narwhal Splatfest, Pearl mentions that the plane Off the Hook used for their tour is "in [their] backyard" in Side Order, implying that Marina moved in with her at some point between the end of the former and the beginning of the latter.

Side Order

Main article:Pearl Drone
Pearl in Inkling form, as seen in a teaser forSide Order.

Due to the Dramatic Days in Orderland module, she takes on the form of adrone, following Agent 8 and assisting them in combat. During the first climb, Pearl is locked into this form; after savingMarina fromOrder, she is reprogrammed and gains the ability to switch betweenInkling and drone at will while in theMemverse.

Tableturf Battle

Pearl is one of the rivals in theTableturf Battle Dojo. She becomes available after the player purchased theSplatoon 3: Expansion Pass and has completed the main story ofSide Order. Her playstyle is balanced between covering turf and accumulating special points, and matches against her are played onPedal to the Metal. Pearl's deck features manydualie-based cards in reference to her preferred weapon class. She is affiliated with bothCuttlefish andAgent 8, who is depicted on theOrder Dualies card, since the events of theOcto Expansion inSplatoon 2. HerBamboozler 14 Mk I card is likely a reference to Cuttlefish's signature weapon, while herKiller Wail 5.1 alludes to herPrincess Cannon,Color Wail andDrone Killer Wail, which are all based on the originalKiller Wail inSplatoon. Due to her preforming duringSplatfests, Pearl is unavailable during the main event period.

In the manga series

Pearl's first appearance in themanga was chapter 15, where she and Marina announced the semi-final matches for the Square King Cup. During the same tournament, she, along with Marina, does the play-by-play report for both the semi-finals and finals.

In theOcto Expansion arc, Pearl plays the same role she has in the game, helping Cap'n Cuttlefish, Eight, Team Blue, and Rider out of Deepsea Metro.

Pearl makes two appearances in the Splatfest arc; once to announce the Funny Man VS Straight Man Splatfest, and another to provide the play-by-play report.

In the Square King Ranked Battle Cup arc, Pearl and Marina return to providing the play-by-play report for most of the tournament.

During the Final Fest arc, Pearl appears to represent her team, Team Chaos, and she and Marina once again provide the play-by-play report for the entire Splatfest.

Trivia

  • Across Splatfest artworks fromSplatoon 2, there seems to be a continuity regarding Pearl's crown. In theWarm Innerwear vs. Warm Outerwear Splatfestartwork, Pearl is shown tossing her crown while posing like aUniqlo model. The nextartwork to be released, forSweater vs. Socks, shows that her crown is cracked, likely from falling on the ground following the previous picture.The following Splatfest artwork shows her with a new, golden crown instead. This was not reflected on her in-game model, but she did wear her gold crown duringFamily vs. Friends. She is later shown wearing several different crowns across artworks and game appearances, including the gold crown as part of her standard outfit inSplatoon 3.
  • Pearl seems to have a special connection withSnapper Canal from multiple news dialogues. Her father taught her how to ride a bike there (although she still uses training wheels), and a boy from her school took her there as a child for an unknown reason.
  • In Japan, Pearl's fans are known asHimeito (ヒメイト), a portmanteau of Pearl's name, "Hime", and the English word "mate". The English equivalent to this name is implied to be "Pearl Scout", as seen on thePearl-Scout Lace-Ups. "Pearl Scout" is a reference to theGirl Scouts, the biggest guiding group in the USA.
  • According to concept art, Pearl was at one point going to be anOctoling the same age as Marina, and was given a stool to stand on during news broadcasts instead of her chair, presumably to make her taller.
  • During Inkopolis News, Pearl occasionally mentions thatMoray Towers is one of her favoritestages.
  • According to dialogue from theColor-Chip Collection, Pearl is known to run out of ink often. Marina repeatedly makes note of this, much to Pearl's dismay.
  • According to an interview in Famitsu, the jacket Pearl wears inSplatoon 3 (including the NASA-like patch) is designed to resemble a spacesuit, symbolizing her "transcending worlds" by becoming an internationally recognized musician. It is a haute-couture designer piece that cost 200 millioncash to create. Marina is noted to have used Pearl's outfit as inspiration for the galaxy pattern on her tentacles.
  • As ofSide Order, Pearl is one of the only two idols never fought as a boss, the other beingMarie.
  • When asked if Pearl is the former vocalist ofSashiMori,Hisashi Nogami left it "to your imagination".[9] The vocalist is referred to with male pronouns in the English version of theSplatoon Base website, but their gender is not revealed in the Japanese version.
  • In theColor-Chip Collection dialogue, Marina and Pearls' commentary under the "Main Damage (Distant)" color chip reveals that Pearl does not like using or encounteringchargers. This is also evident from some other color chip palette dialogue, as she mentions under "Midfire Charge", she does not want anyone showing up with a charger, and she also claims under "Charge Storage" that when she got "one-shot by a charger" she initially assumed they were cheating.
  • According toSalmon Run news dialogue in the Canadian French localization, Pearl wears contact lenses.[10]

Etymology

"Pearl" is derived from the valuable hard, glistening mineral of the same name formed inside the shells of molluscs. It is a possible reference to her small size and wealthy background. "Houzuki" comes from her Japanese surname, which in turn comes from ダイオウホウズキイカdaiōhōzukīka (literally "great kingbladder cherry squid"), the Japanese name forcolossal squid, an ironic reference to her diminutive size.
