Goggles

The following article is lacking info.

Feel free to edit below.

**Goggles is** a member of Team Blue. He is the main protagonist of the *Splatoon* manga series. He has bested nearly every team he came across through the power of luck and stupidity.

## Appearance

As a typical Inkling, Goggles has a rounded face, pointed ears, an eye mask, and sharp teeth. His tentacles and eyes are usually in blue colour, as it was his team’s motif, but he can change his ink colour at will. His eyes also appear to get rounder in every manga. He has a light skin tone. In the *Splatoon* series, he wears his signature gear (the Pilot Goggles) paired with the Armor Jacket Replica and the Hero Runner Replicas. In the *Splatoon 2* series, he switches out his Armor Jacket Replica for the Eggplant Mountain Coat. In the Hero Mode arc, he wore the Hero Suit with his Pilot Goggles. Goggles usually has a huge grin on his face.

## Personality

Goggles is rather friendly and optimistic, always trying to lift his teammates' spirits and being a good sport after turf wars, no matter the outcome. Even if his opponents acted in a rude manner towards him and his team, he always looks forward to becoming friends with them.

He is also quite immature and scatter-brained and carefree, and shows it by pulling down his friends' pants at unconventional times or mishearing what other people say or dressing up in ridiculous costumes, or sometimes getting naked unintentionally. The jar of pickled plums he snacks on from his grandmother often finds its way on the battlefield by accident. However, at some times, he is shown to have a serious side.

## Trivia

* According to Volume 1's Inkling Almanac, he can't hear things such as his alarm clock very well, which may be the reason why he often ignores people or misinterprets what others say to him. This was likely why he is often late to his team's practices.
* He is also a restless sleeper, and he often rolls out of bed in his sleep.
	+ His bio also states that he liked onigiri (rice balls)
* In Chapter 3, his Armor Jacket Replica rips, so he goes to the store to buy new clothes. One of the outfits included a Power Mask, Black LS and Red Sea Slugs, but he got caught stealing the Power Mask from another customer. Luckily he did not get arrested. He switched back to Pilot Goggles for the next three outfits:
	+ The Octoling Armor and Octoling Boots
	+ The Carnivore Tee and Oyster Clogs
	+ The Squid-Pattern Waistcoat and Clownfish Basics
	+ However, the girls rejected all three of these.
* He once wore the Mech costume during/before the Ranked Battle opening ceremony at Skipper Pavilion
* He has the lowest competitive rank in his team, being C- in *Splatoon*.
* Goggles is one of, if not the fastest character (somehow) in the entire series, as he is able to surpass Aloha, Squidkid Jr, Double Egg and Gloves, In terms of speed. He can also use "Squid Lightning Jet Attack", a lightning-fast move that was taught to him by Rider.
* The pickled plums Goggles has with him were made by his grandmother.
* Goggles tended to not notice (or even care) when he loses his clothes and continues being naked until someone points it out.
* Goggles is one of the strongest characters in the manga, as he can lift incredibly heavy objects ( Apparently ) without even breaking a sweat.
* Goggles, for whatever reason, has a very uncontrollable nasty habit of pantsing people, most often Rider, but other people he has pantsed were Skull, Emperor, Gloves , Specs, Eight, Vintage, Double Egg, Fierce Fishskull, Hivemind and even Sheldon. According to Goggles in the Team Costume Lovers chapter, his body moved on its own. Goggles also pointed out that Rider's pants started to sag in the match against Team Emperor during the Square King Cup Semifinals.
* Goggles gave Eight, Seven, Ponytail, and Burns their new names.
* Goggles and Eight are seen naked in the Splatfest chapter when they both perform a double Splashdown.
* According to Rider and Skull, Goggles strength is so great that it cannot be measured by ranks.
* Despite being the main protagonist of the manga, Specs IS Blue Team's leader, not Goggles.
* Goggles has used Splashdown naked 3 times. Once when he was fighting Gloves in the Square King Cup, a second in the the Adventures of Sheldon , where (Spoilers) he used his clothes as a jumping platform to perform a Splashdown on Jetflame Crest and Justice and when he and Eight both did Splashdown during the Funny vs Straight Man Splatfest.
