To be fair everyone. I can't think of more Iconic characters in the Splatoon universe, than the Squid Sisters (except maybe Judd). Anyone can get kidnapped, caught behind enemy lines, or simply in the wrong place at the wrong time... or she could have just walked away from the idol life, To be fair this based off of Japanese culture. The Japanese Idol life is a hard one like as stated in earlier Chapters they had little time for themselves simple life is lost. but really whatever they decide will not affect my will to purchase.
After playing Neir:Atomaton and watching countless anime with Female leads. The thought of a kidnapping story arc doesn't bother me that much Callie would be the kind of character to try and find her own way out... well that is my impression of her Strong willed, determined, not one to roll over without a fight.
But that is me I'm all for Women in media that aren't Stereotypical eye candy / Damsel in distress. I know that old tropes in media and literature are hard to take. i'm hoping for a far more complicated story. but it's not like they Octarians haven't kidnapped A man character before .
when you are a person set on world domination you will do whatever it takes to get your way.
