I saw @kakoshihatake-str8rico‘s raws of Pearl’s interview and I couldn’t not translate it! Right on time for the global splatfest too! Sorry if I misesed any typos. ‘Couple notes:

*1. I have no idea what they’re gonna go for with Pearl’s official full name in English. I went with Pigmy on the spot following the trend in the Japanese version because that’s the species her design was based on and in the Japanese version they tend to make references to species— both Pearl’s and Marina’s names are such references. Since the English localisation sent a nod to those with Marina Iida in the Octo Expansion, I sort of went with the reverse path on that. Also, Pigmy reminds me of “pigment” and, ye know, colours and all…

*2. What she calls the rooms the interviewer keeps asking about is actually a part of Japanese homes where you put away the shoes at the entrance. Those are usually cupboards/shelves, but god how could I refer to an open space as a cupboard I’m??? So yeah.

*3. The puns.

*4. Pearl is best girl.

*5. Is there a Marina interview??
