I’m almost certain they DO expect you to take it that way. The English localizers kept trying to make Marina seem less gay in Splatoon 2 so they let her fuck in 3 to atone

    I think I get what you mean, but I wouldn’t even say it counts as “undertones”. It feels more like it’s just the point

    Marina's diaries where she keeps using heart emojis when talking about Pearl

    Marina's wallpaper being this picture of Pearl wearing both of their jewelery

    Marina seemingly getting jealous of Acht when she thinks they're hitting on Pearl (which is somehow queer no matter how you interpret it)

    This actual shoujo manga Marina made with a love letter to Pearl shown

    and there’s still somehow way more than this in-game. Nintendo is barely holding back
