Hidden Details: Curious Cat

Welcome to the eighty-sixth episode of the Hidden Details blog!

Have you found some obscure reference or detail in this comic? A JoJo reference? A sneaky little Loss? A callback to a previous comic? Let us know what you've found in the comments! Every detail that has been found will be added to the list below. Once everything has been found, this comic will officially be marked with "all details found".

Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!

There ONE Loss, ONE Balthazar, and NO JoJo reference. Bonus panels don't count.

Incineroar's whiteboard is basically one big collection of hidden details so it's hard to decide what I should count and what I shouldn't, but just shout your discoveries and I'll include them if I deem them hidden-detail-worthy.

1: You can see Incineroar peeking from his room before grabbing Kirby in the first panel.
2: Isaac is apparently the Assist Trophy of the month, according to the little portrait in the first panel. Found by Gavin Walker.
3:
There's a bunch of crumpled pieces of paper in Incineroar's room. Seems like he's been theorizing and obsessing over these newcomers for a while.
4:
The red dot distracting Incineroar was there even before I decided the main character of this comic was Incineroar, but I did partly choose Incineroar because he (as a cat) would work so well with the laser pointer, Phloxiana!
5:
The fact that I wrote Doom Slayer/Guy on that whiteboard is just because I never know what his official name is supposed to be, but I'll give you a point for that insightful piece of trivia, CrazySeanDX!
6:
Yep, Loss is represented on the whiteboard, Zach! It's barely visible behind Incineroar but it's there.
7:
And correct Luke, Balthazar is there as well :)
8:
Cinderace is apparently deconfirmed by the "crowd chant theory". I definitely let some of my personal opinions slip into this comic as I would go absolutely apeshit if Cinderace is a DLC fighter because I hate his design. Still, good catch John Hattan.
9:
There's a little Sephibutt drawing on the whiteboard too. Good eye, Trigger.
10:
Eggman seemed like the most likely Sonic-newcomer, so I included him on the whiteboard as well. Found by Erin.
11: Likewise, I've seen a TON of "leaks" and rumours about Ryu Hayabusa, so I made sure to include him in there as well, Marwan Abunura. Damn, Ryu Hayabusa and Marwan Abunura sounds like an amazing name for the two main characters in a buddy cop film.
12: Kirby had to hold the gun somehow, Zanreo, so I made him grow fingers, hahaha.
13: Kirby is holding some (blood) money and has a little blood spatter on him in the final panel. Seems like he didn't leave the job unfinished, Rozorox.
14: Sakurai has six controllers now. He upgraded from the four controllers in the Byleth reveal.
15: And finally, you're right Cherry, Sakurai is wearing a cool E3 shirt. Imagine him actually wearing this next Tuesday.

After one week, I'll reveal all the details that haven't been found. These ones are written in italic.

Comments

Seems like Incineroar has a hatred for Cinderace. Be it by his natural instincts of being a cat and a rabbit as his natural prey, or being a mouthpiece for Abel given his dislike for Gen 8.

You can see a little splat of blood on Kirbys head after he points a gun at incineroar!

Ouchie

Loss is on the whiteboard with an arrow pointing at it.

Zach

Hahaha a man of his word <3

Wooden Plank Studios

Also, I told you I'd be back today.

CSDX

Doom Slayer is referenced on the whiteboard as Doomguy/Slayer, cause of how the new canon name for him is apparently Doom Slayer but people refer to him still as Doomguy, including the intern in the Ancient Gods DLC of Doom Eternal, interestingly enough.

CSDX

Not really hidden, but Isaac from Golden Sun is the assist trophy of the month.

kirbystarwarrior

Damnit, I was gonna say that

kirbystarwarrior

Kirby suddenly gets fingers to hold the gun

Zanreo

Of course the red dot gets Incineroar’s attention. He is a cat after all.

Phloxiana

Sakurai has 5 controllers on his desk, for some reason. He can potentially use 4 at a time. EDIT: I just noticed it's actually 6. One is mostly hidden by his monitor. So does Sakurai have 3 arms, or does Kirby play with him now?

Gavin Walker

Isaac from Golden Sun is "Assist Trophy of the Month"

Gavin Walker

That's the main joke of the comic, hahaha. Not really a hidden detail.

Wooden Plank Studios

OR it's because Cinderace is the worst designed excuse of a starter don't @ me

Cherry

Aw man. Sephiroth should’ve rip that drawing earlier.

Cameron Devera

eggman is featured on the whiteboard!

Erin

Kirby drawing a gun!

Cameron Devera

In the last panel before the bonus one, Kirby can be seen with some blood on his head with the wad of cash

Rezorox

Incineroar makes note that he'd dislike a Gen 8 rep, because they'd upstage him, or Cinderace would be too similar

John Hattan

There's a tiny Sephibutt drawing at the bottom of the board in the 4th panel.

Trigger

There is a Balthazar drawing on the whiteboard
