Which level of Katana ZERO is this from? The mall level? Is this from the mall level, Syrup? I read the description but it didn't specify whether or not this is from the mall level.

It is with mild regret, that I must inform you that this is NOT the mall level from Katana ZERO.
I've made this kind of joke about other games, especially Zelda 2 and those Horsehead % runs where the poor guy is just constantly takes a beating every 5 minutes from runners. At least these three only have to worry about being covered in paint. Imagine if Shiver had to deal with being repeatedly stabbed by an undersized magical sword. Should I assume Frye's battle is an indirect one since she seems to be the only one unaffected by this?
It's even funnier because it puts into perspective about how these boss fights fair in other different gameplay acts, especially speedrunning. While they're considered to be too easy, even for casuals, they're actually a godsend for speedrunners since they don't have to worry about patterns or gimmicks to invest their time on avoiding while going for the fastest time.
Uuumf, that would've hurt even more, even with her shark by her side.
Yep. Pretty impressive for a first boss even.
"Why are you reading about some other dork in green attire when you got me, Mario?" - Luigi, probably. Also, I kind of want Mario's chair. It's red (I like red) and charming.
Hopefully, the accounting job has been a pleasant experience thus far. I'll assume it is. It clearly is. I'm glad you are enjoying your work. The best job ever, you say? Whoa, calm down now, assumed-version of hard-working Cami!
A dork in green attire... WAIT I THINK I GOT IT, IT'S BOOGERMAN!
Nice to know that the chair is still looking neat.
Oh that job? That has been long ago. I switched to a different one where it involves school assistance and such. I think it's fine for me. Granted I forgot to add in while filling in the description boxes, so my bad.
Kinda? You have every right to be proud of this! I thought it would be a simple bottle smash loop, but you got "Chugs" here emptying the thing (guy didn't even savor the drink!), celebrating his moment of littering, belching to himself, and even requesting another one. You got all the facial expressions, the body movement, and a little joke to wrap it up. So much was done here, Scott, and all you needed to do to satisfy the title was shatter the thing on the floor. If I had any trivial complaint to make, it would be the bottle looking kind of bad and having no liquid inside of it properly greasing his throat. That's basically a nothing criticism!
Six stars. Keep up the great work. Remove the "Kinda" from your description and replace it with "Very." Drink responsibly.
Ya got me!
Can't say I'm familiar with the series, but I like how both have that calm expression indicating that the hat is just as relaxed to be on her head as she is to be wearing it. I wish I could wear a hat that felt comfortable on my oversized noggin.
I'm sure there is a magical hat emporium somewhere that could get you fitted for a trusty hat friend like Kai has. :P
It's cute to see those two relaxing with their choice of candy, but I adore how Big Man looks ready to bake with his. Is he going to prepare something simple like a batch of white chocolate macadamia nut cookies or perhaps he's asking them to join in a collaboration dessert such as a triple chocolate mousse. That seems like a Big Man thing to do, right?
While a room of chocolate isn't all that unique (a candy-themed level used to be pretty common in video games), I very much appreciate you putting in the time and effort to really spruce up your version of it. I'm going to guess the flowers here are daffodils though I'm not certainly since the flower is typically seen with six petals. Visually appealing, of course, but if you really wanted to be a dork, you could have included some chocolate cosmos. What draws my attention the most, however, is the cup you have Frye lounging in. The design has me thinking it is based on something and I'm curious if that's the case or if you came up with it on your own.
Lastly, the half-eaten food and missing tiles on the ground tell me there might have been a mini Splatfest of sorts going on here to determine how much space was shared between the three of them. The whole piece is a treat for the eyes.
That's how Bigs is. Refined with his tastes and is willing to share them, y'know?
Daffodils would've been funny to be included there, but these are vanilla orchids. They're used to reference how white chocolate is made. Granted I've could've included cocoa beans for the other bars, but suppose the leaves give a fine hint.
I initially thought that you were referring to an aesthetic type of sorts until I looked that up and sure enough, it is a flower. Don't really think it's used for chocolate production despite what the name implies. Pretty looking flower though.
Besides the emblem pasted on (the Onaga crest) I came up with the "cup seat". Just a nice nod of how hot chocolate or any coffee is usually served in our place. No mugs, just a fine carton cup.
That was admitedly my favourite part to work on, especially the w. choco tiles. To be frank, I didn't even think white chocolate would come out victorious while working on this, so I suppose that was some sort of an unexpected prediction.
Went to look up Callie and Marie cause I remembered the names but wasn't sure who was who. Noticed their outfits were different from one another and wondered why only one looked dressed for New Year's. According to the images, that's their normal outfits right now? I guess only Big Man decided to dress up special for the occasion with his dapper-looking top hat and bow tie.
It's a fair drawing and perfect for the holiday. Most of your other uploads have some level of artistic ambition added to them but this seems rather straightforward. A shame there's not more interaction with the three in the back though I assume you just included them afterwards to help fill out the drawing. I'mma guess it's the ol' "I already came this far, so I might as well keep going with it" sort of mindset that I, too, have often at work when I'm closing things down for the night. You're finished with it, but you're not finished-finished with it and, therefore, it's not finished.
They're also their cover-up outfits appaerently since they're agents of New Squidbeak Splatoon (once led by their grandpa who was a lieutenant). Guess that explains why Marie's outfit reminded me of such characters like Inspector Gadget (I actually never whatched the show though, I only know of the character).
Bigs is a rather goofy looking stingray with epicurean tastes, so he pretty much has to look fancy for such events.
Most of the drawings that are event related are straightforward really, even the halloween ones. I admit that I tend to draw the agents pretty less given that they're, well, player characters made to be customised. Do try include every once in a while, but yeah. I usually tend to go with characters with established personalities.
Outside of generation one, I'd typically side with fire types, so I guess I'd be rooting for Frye which is fine by me since she's second to only Pearl anyhow. Still, I did that sort of thing as a kid and all that bravado against harsh weather got me was a sore throat and the flu a couple times a year.
I really love the outfits two of them have the good sense to wear, especially Big Man. Shiver is still trying to maintain some fashion but Big Man clearly wants to be warm and I am 100% with him on that. Also, I like the lanky versions. Makes the squid people look less... maybe not "less" but more "evenly distributed" in design.
I do have a couple of favourites as far as fire types go, but I do tend to side with water types quite often... for starters, I side a lot more with ground and ice actually. Krookodile, Claydol, Walrein and even Glalie are pretty good examples.
Heh, guess I'm not the only one who has done that. Back when I was little that is. Nowadays I tend to chill inside with a mug of hot choco in hands while admiring the snowfall at night... if it ever happens.
Thanks! I came up with these outfits long before the Frosty Fest came out with it their poster, which are supposed to be the official outfits.

Sea creatures are cold blooded as far as I'm concerned, so putting on extra layers during harsh environments is mandatory.
I would go back to draw them like that if I wasn't so respectful to the source material. Ah well, at least some exagerations aren't fully one.
Thinking about it, I could totally see a, uh, whatever the term is... "squidling"... "squid kid" staying in their non-humanoid form whenever they're feeling particularly tired or lazy. That and Marina would be even more obnoxious in a taller/larger form while lying on top of Pearl.
Prior to reading your comments, I thought of this and the prior image where Marina was also in her other form and initially wondered if it was a choice to help place more focus on Pearl.
No, inklings are squid kids, the term for their bulbous counterparts is "dumbo kid", trust me, I know this series real good. Heh, I was even going to have her drool on Pearl in sleep like in the Octo Expansion's chat log feature where they were postin photos. That would've been priceless.
This could be the intent, but I am willing to place focus on all characters on equal level every once in a while.
"And then it led to a wave of fanart featuring these three. Just a heads up." Spoiler warning next time, please!
Another piece that probably should be on a shirt. This is the best interpretation of Frye I've ever seen... mainly because I loving seeing characters looking their most chaotic in fanart, especially when that character is a water goblin.
Sorryyy, had to drop in a warning just in case, but I'll keep that in mind later on.
Chaotic looking people usually tend to be the best part in drawings like these. They always take the spotlight 90% of the time compared to the slightly sane ones, which isn't a bad thing.
LMAO, "Water goblin". You just straight up outclassed my term "inky imp" with this one. I would've given you a gold star if I had one.
