Making the idols into rivals and bosses is the biggest brain move I can think of from the Splatoon team so far.

[@egthatyoutubes8094]

This is from the wiki "Agent 3 is the codename given to the player character of Splatoon 3 by Craig Cuttlefish in Alterna. This makes them and Smallfry the newest members of the New Squidbeak Splatoon. They notably share the title with the series' first playable character, Agent 3 from Splatoon. This is due to the previous Agent 3 being promoted to Captain, leaving the position of Agent 3 open for recruits."
