What is The Splatoon series by Sankichi Hinodeya about?
Written and serialised from 2016, Sankichi Hinodeya’s Splatoon manga follows Team Blue, a lively group of Inklings learning the ropes of Turf Wars. Their early matches gradually lead to fiercer rivals, larger competitions and increasingly imaginative battles across Inkopolis and beyond. Fast-paced, colourful and packed with slapstick humour, the series should appeal to children who enjoy video games, team adventures and energetic graphic novels. It is generally suitable for younger readers, though it includes cartoon-style splatting, rivalry and non-threatening battle scenes.
