I'll give the Little Mermaid remake this, they put a lot of effort into the designs of Ariel's sisters, they all look great.

Ariel looks so cute in this scene.

Honestly wish I was her or myself in that moment and reliving the first time as a human.

Cold Take: Ariel’s Transformation (And Her Whirlpool Transformation) But Reversed Might’ve Awakened Something in Me…

Now, lets be real here. I‘ve always had a thing for merfolk. But one Headcanon I can get behind (That I made up) is that Ursula’s spell that she used to turn Ariel human has the REVERSE effect on land dwellers. Aka turning them into merfolk.

That first gif definitely shows how mesmerizing I find the reversed version of Ariel’s first transformation as she sheds her human legs for the familiar fins. I like to think that she enjoys the feeling of her feet flattening and her legs merging into a singular structure.

And the second gif just screams that the vortex the contract has surrounded her in is changing her legs into a tail to swim the seas- even though Triton literally signed himself over to take her place.

Which leads me into the fact that some Disney ship video makers use gif number 2 a lot for when they want to transform Ariel back into or have her become a mermaid. It’s in the same vein as Melody’s transformation in the sequel.

In short, both of them are surrounded by a magical whirlpool that lifts them into the air and turns their legs into tails.

Sorry for the rambling, but this is just a cold take I wanted to share!

And it awakened my obsession with turning fictional characters into merfolk… yeah.

And I’m a girl, btw.

This has always been one of my favorite shots (and lines) in a Disney movie. The way it slowly zooms in on her expression and the emotion in her voice just gives me chills.

How did Christopher Daniel Barnes get the role of Prince Eric? And, how do Disney fans feel about his role as Prince Eric and Spider-Man from the 90s cartoon?

Heart aches for little mermaid!

I got Disney plus and rewatched the series first then the 3 movies for nostalgia since they were my favorite as a kid and Ariel was always my favorite princess that I look for merchandise but when I watched the series after decades I kept feeling sad because all these friends she made in the series she left behind like urchin, Gabriella, and spot etc especially since at one point her friend urchin was scared she would leave and everyone would be sad! I get why she left she wanted to be a human and it was better for her cause she was more happy on land still I felt bad and kinda wish there was a plot point where she can visit and turn into a mermaid whenever she wants without her dads trident.

Then there’s her collection she starts in the series they show how she got to that point in collecting and even when her collection is destroyed in the series she says she will start another! it meant so much to her and it hurts later seeing the movie after the series where her father destroys it.i like triton but that scene was rough!

Lastly triton and Ariel’s father and daughter relationship they were so fun to watch he was very protective and strict but I thought it was cute how much he loved her in the series and worried for her especially eps where Ariel hits her head on the seahorse episode he was so worried, then that time she got in the whirl pool and goes to save her and when he called her “my Ariel” , it hurt more to know in the future his youngest would leave to go on land and they won’t be close in distance anymore.

Just needed to get this out love the franchise but goodness the feels!
