It looks strangely leopard-like to me...

It's cute, but it looks like it has a mean streak about it, like a 90'ies glow-in-the-dark squid version of Marvin the Martian. It wants to kill you, but you still want to cuddle it.

I like the translucent fins with the spots. I had a shower curtain with that motif. Its tentacles look like its doing the macarena.

That cute little guy is probably thinking, "How tasty" when he sees someone like us.
