Last week, Weekly Shonen Champion was one of the two magazines (along with Famitsu) which got to publish a special Ika Musume (Squid Girl) X Splatoon collaboration illustration. As mentioned back then, this isn’t all that surprising, as Weekly Shonen Champion is the very magazine in which the original Squid Girl manga (by Masahiro Anbe) is being published.

Therefore, it’s also not too surprising that this magazine is also the one who revealed that a special Squid Girl costume for Splatoon would come out in August, along with with the big update scheduled for that month. Unfortunately, no visual was given for this costume, but many fans expect the costume to be the very clothes that Squid Girl wears in the manga (complete with the white squid-shaped hat).

Here’s the scan from Weekly Shonen Champion:

Unfortunately, we also don’t know if this special costume will also be released in Europe and North America, or if it will stay in Japan.
