  • that is the most unnaturally sized nose i have ever seen. maybe its a tumor...

  • wait... that small whale never been at the surface before... it would have died!! D:

  • I personally think the prince looks like Link from Legend of Zelda

    Just sayin'

  • I used to watch this version all the time on VHS. I miss it<3

  • that wwhale gave that bitch a pearl

    bitches lovve pearls

  • I think if I had to become some sort of sea creature for the rest of my life, I'd want to be a mer-person.

  • I was so happy when I discovered the video of " The little mermaid" was this and not that Disney crap.

  • my memories are pouring back:D

  • 24 people was not old enough 

  • prince looks like link from zelda

  • Man, Fritz is a bad influence lol

  • hundreds of people on that boat and she only cares about the prince... how nice Marina DX

  • trying to decide Eve Plum or Susan Olsen spoke for Merina., though they both spoke with a bit of a lisp.

  • WHOA NOSE ON THAT GUY! Whoo...that's a big nose on that guy talking to the prince on the ship.

    I love this show, awesome memories <3

  • Wait... It's Fritz's first time going to the surface, too? So how has he not died from lack of air his whole life?

  • This reminds me of Urusei Yatsura

  • 0:50 that dolphin is a bad influence LOL

  • 4:39 sounds like "boy what a big shit." xD

    I know it's ship but sounds like shit.

  • Comment removed

  • The prince was so casual about seeing a Merina, "There's a mermaid on that iceberg"

    wow. I guess we all can't see mermaids on our voyages.

  • he must be pretty light for her to swim that fast

  • @bentivegnafamily well....he is kinda skinny....and she CAN wear his clothes........

  • what's with the pillars of water?

  • @bentivegnafamily um...........tornado whirlpool hybrids >3<

    the sea witch did it!

  • what's with the boot on her head?

  • @bentivegnafamily she thought it was a crown

  • I like how uncle says "O RLY? I SEE"

    XD

  • fritz is a bad influence

  • ¨But Marina, we cant stay here in the storm, its too dangerous¨

    yeah, cause you know, you might drown.....

  • @Shiamti You laugh, but I had a fish that drowned once! D: I found him dead in the water in my aquarium, floating like a drowning victim. :x I SEE NO PROBLEM WITH THIS LOGIC. /s :3

  • woah...that is a big noose. ha...

  • his nose is HUGEEE

  • a whale...being a dolphin's uncle?

  • "hey whats that? theres a mermaid over there on that iceberg" lol ... ummm. XD

  • I think the prince in this one is waaayy more handsome :)

  • Would have been better without the pointless dolphin. It doesn't fit the atmosphere of the fairy tale at all. The little mermaid was supposed to be a brooding solitary type, not at home in the sea, longing for something else.

  • @ZolotayaKoshka The dolphin was added for comic relief I personally think he's adorable

  • wow this is terrible

    

  • BIG NOSE!!

  • diz is borin-.-

  • this looks the exact same as disney's little mermaid. anyone know which came out first?

  • @SakuNaru94 This film came out in 1975 (originally in Japan, but translated to English) and the Disney version came out in 1989. :)

  • @davis1922 thank you. i wonder if disney bought the rights to remake this film? i wouldn't put it beneath them, and honestly the similarities between the two are too astounding for disney to not have known about this film.

  • @SakuNaru94

    There are also many similarities between Kimba, The White Lion and The Lion King as well.

  • @davis1922 The story is from Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid. He wrote several other very famous fairy tales, and some not so widely known as well.

  • @SakuNaru94 this one!! X)

  • I don't trust that little dolphin...sneaky little shit

  • i have been looking for this movie for a long time!! im so glad i found it again!!

  • Am I the only one who finds this movie.....disturbing? :x

  • "The whaling ships might come after me if I'm seen with you..."

    Yes cause I'm sure if the saw a whale and a mermaid they would go after the whale....

  • @BlondieBritt90210 HAHAHAH epic

  • @BlondieBritt90210

    A dolphin.Its a dolphin.Just sayin.

  • @BlondieBritt90210

    sorry thought u were talkin about the little companion

  • Lol, at 4:45 it sounds like Fritz said, "Wow, look a big bitch!"

  • @JxSparrow

    You took the words out of my head! XD

    Thanks so much!

  • Fritz is so cute <333

    I always thought he was a dolphin, but watching this now.. I think he's a baby whale.

  • holy crap!! I have not seen this in yrs. did not think I would find it here. I had it on vhs. I saw this before disney's version, and I actually like this one better. probably because it does not have a happily ever after ending.

  • How can it be the dolphin's first time to the surface if he needs air to breath! Dolphins don't have gills!

  • Does that Whale have Plankton stains on it's mouth?

  • Marina sounds orgasmic!

  • @patr3ck

    What do you expect when she's topless and wants to get laid badly

  • The prince is quite handsome ^_^

  • To all the idiots who think this movie was the original story...it's not. The Little Mermaid was a ballet that was written in the 1800's.

  • lol @ 8:47 it looks like the prince is sucking her boob.

  • fuck, what about the dog and the other passengers. nice to know the dolphin didn't do shit to help out and the others who weren't pretty looking or didn't have a penis or weren't human were pretty much screwed. onto part 3!

    -kendra <3

  • I like it that Merina is only interested in saving the Prince....and doesn't even notice everyone else that is drowning.

  • @YuckyAppleTree

    Yeah, I found that pretty odd when I read the story; but I guess that's why it's called "love at first sight".

  • @YuckyAppleTree Women... V_V 

  • I love how the dolphin whines about wanting to go to the surface. I guess he's a magic dolphin that never has to go up for air.

  • Man this movie brings back memories of my grandma's house. Such a nice movie too.

  • Tazhail so good of you to comment. I LOVE happy endings too! I suppose I am

    bit of a realist. Also as a writer, it grieves me to see writer's work forgotten. There

    was a time when stories, cartoons & movies (t.v.) shows were watched by adults

    & children together. I'm also a romantic & even sometimes the tragedy interests me. Using our imaginations very much appeals to me. Also like folk tales & mysteries. God's Blessings to you again.

  • whoa i remember watching this when i was younger! totally sad and it scared me a bit lol

  • Aaah I remember watching this when i was younger. It's so sad though. Definitely not for little kids.

  • wow disney copied this so bad lol

  • @blackkat77 Copied what?

  • Wow, that's almost EXACTLY like Disney's Little Mermaid!

  • Oh man- the guy looks like Link! XD

  • @IANOYTYK LOL! Read my mind.

  • Surprisingly, when I watched this film in my childhood, I did not cry. Probably because I already knew the original tale (My Mother read it to me), and I understood the mermaid's future. Great film, a true masterpiece. I remember the days when me and my Grandmother were reserved in a community (my parents left for vacation so they had her take care of me) and I would watch this film nearly every day, and my friends from the community would come visit our home to watch it with me. Good old days.

  • ahmm..how did she know he was the prince..??

  • I grew up listening to Hans Chrstian Anderson's stories. Even though the book

    passed down to me from my mom, doesn't have this story in it. I have watched this

    version when I was a little girl. When I grew up I bought the video of it. My two very

    young children watched it over and over again until the tape accidently got ruined.

    I am now also a writer. I've seen the disney version. I perfer this one. We have

    to realize back then that stories had a morral lesson about real life God bless

  • @outerspaceoutpost True that! It's nice to escape reality every now and then but we need stories that challenge us to deal with it. Lord bless you too.

  • i used to watch this movie sooo many times when i was younger!! so i can't help but love it <3

  • i have watched this movie so many times i still remember it word for word. i asked for the little mermaid and the thrift store shopping grandma got this one for me....i do like it a bit better because it has more of a realistic ending, where we dont get what we want and have to make difficult decisions and live up to them.

  • Are there songs in this movie?

  • How is it their day 4:44 and not over 5 secunds later its night s;

  • @kirsti1234567890 lol, i see what you mean, but your eyes have been fooled. It was night the whole time since they surfaced. But what you see that makes you think its day is the shadow of the sails in the colour of sky blue casted upon the sail behind it. I replayed it over and over and i finally realized that. Check it out for yourself, mate! :D

  • I really love this one compared to the Disney version, but I love them both a lot. I believe it is equal

  • this mermaid (1975) is better than disney version

  • great graphics

  • lmfaoooo the Dolphin's face at 4:35 is FTW

  • fritza is a dolphin and he has an uncle whale? curious XD

  • NO!!!!!

  • omge my mom bought the book of her when i was 5 i still have it

  • yup, definitally not disney- everyone dies on the ship except the prince who got saved!XD

  • The prince in this is so very cute. I used to have a huge crush on him. lol

  • @Sengokuislove So did I, I thought he was so much better than Prince Eric.

  • @Konaokimi Definitely cuter XD

  • Which came out first, Disney or this one? I'm confused... Lol

  • @XxDerangedChipmunkxX If not mistaking i think this one came out first cuz I remember watching it long b4 ariel came along.

  • @XxDerangedChipmunkxX before disney version of the little mermaid, this movie came out

  • @XxDerangedChipmunkxX This story was VERY OLD. This animation came out long before, but the disney version is just soooo different they are both different stories, just Disneys is sort of based on this, so I guess it is considered the same, but Everything is different really. There are a few things that are the same though. ^^

  • this ships party is way classier than the disney version

  • The prince in this story is SOOO MUCH HOTTER than the Disney version of him! XD

  • this movie is great but I prefer the disney version because it has a happy ending

  • @JakT714 Yeah me 2, I like both but I don't like being deprest.

  • love <3

  • Oh wait, my bad, is Fritz a baby whale and not a dolphin?? Still, very cute! Oh man for a sec I thought Fritz was going to say, "Boy what a bitch ship!" I'm sorry but I just can't imagine how big that guy's boogers have got to be with a nose like that hahah okay I'm being gross now. Growing up, I loved this movie, but my cousin owned it on VHS and I didn't, so I didn't get to see it as often as I had wished.

  • @24hrcutedeadgirl A baby whale you say...Wikipedia has made a mistake lol.

  • tis peter pan! XD

  • I wish everyone who is being immature about this movie would shut up and grow up too. This is a great movie and a great story. There is no reason whatsoever to defile it, even if You're just having fun. It's not funny to those of us who adore this movie and respect it. Time to grow up, people.

  • @Lumundigirl564 I agree with you! I do not even know what they are talking about!

  • where is her braw??

  • 4:45 wth between the mast you could clearly see the blue sky and clouds when its NIGHT and the water is so blue [when its night it should be dark xD] :S haha thats a screw up!

  • That guys nose is HUGE! xDDD Anyway, i love this show. I have since I was little! <3 thank u for uploading it!!

  • Why is Fritz's uncle a whale?

  • yes, screw the 50 or so other souls on board, SAVE THE PRINCE!

  • prince reminds me of link and the guy with the big nose reminds me of that ship dude from legend of zelda.

  • The prince is cute

  • oh ok, found it. it's from 70's ... o_o

    Now I respect even more japanese productions.

  • omg, how old is this?

    I mean, it's great, but it seems to be old

  • love

  • Nope sorry but this sucks one: the girls voice is totally fake. Two: the backround musics bad. Three: it's too much like the little mermaid only way worse. And four: nothing beats Disney classics

  • @TheMstweet yeah but disneys version is based off of this one.

  • @rach0babe: But instead Disney gave her a happy ending. Which made me happy because I always wondered what would have happened if the prince figured his princess was right under his nose.

  • This would be so much better if the voice acting didn't suck and the person who plays Marina didn't sound like she was about to climax!

  • @robanah she's cuming at 8:31 XD

  • HEY What's up with that old man's nose??!! Destroyed everything!!!

  • lol, the dolphin is such a bad influence :P

  • No bra...sweet. :)

  • The singing in this is creepy as hell! Haha.

  • ...Wow....I saw this when I was....younger than ten. I can't believe that this is here. This was one of the very first anime I ever saw in my life. It's better than the Disney version, but I love that version, too. I cried when I saw it recently...

    *Sighs*

    How nostalgic...

  • holy crap, his nose is huge! 5:55

  • Is this the version where the mermaid makes the self-sacrifice? I haven't seen it since I was a little kid in the 80s.

  • Love this movie so much! :D

  • i like this version better than the disney.... i wish Disney stuck to the original ending rather than making it happy to fit the American audience..... and this is actually very well animated, if it were a bigger budget it'd be so good.

  • @opal615

    Oh come on, Disney did made one movie that had a depressing ending and it was shown in Pocahontas. That was a nice change of pace since it was a sad ending.

  • How can the dolphin and the whale be related

  • maybe his cousin is half of eahc lol a 'dale' or 'wholphin' lol

  • @Miakia400 both are mammal

  • Comment removed

  • @Miakia400

    Well they techincally are relatives of each other DNA wise.

  • @Miakia400 his half whale, half dolphin. lol

  • @Miakia400 Unless the dolphin isn't a dolphin, but a baby whale.

  • Mammals.

  • @Miakia400

    Mammals.

  • i seem to remember the prince shouting during the storm...I wonder if this is the edited version.

  • i love this movie! Did u know that in the Disney version it took place in Scotland and in this film it took place in Denmark

  • @lilcutiemuffins

    Scotland? really i thought it was in Denmark.

  • The Disney version was based on this story like all the other Disney classics the only original one that Disney made that was not adapted from a story was the lion king

  • @ookamisuki

    actually the Lion King adapted from Kimba the White Lion with the story of Hamlet by Shakespeare.

  • The animation is simple but I really like how they animated Fritz, he's really expressive with his facial features and fins.

  • okay i can't decide if this is really cool or really freakishly disturbing

  • I don't want to accuse Disney of copying, but WOW, there are way too many similarities between the two versions.

  • I agree entirely. And they can't claim it to the story as there is no statue in the story nor many of the other little details. I'm calling shenanigans on Disney!

  • To Disney's credit there are a lot of differences to the two films as well BUT... I honestly think that they had to have seen this version and used elements from it, it's too uncanny in a handful of parts to be coincidental.

  • actaully yea they did cause they dubbed this i think

  • @Uncool4school there is a statue in the story.

  • hahahahahBIG nose

  • lol...this takes me back when i was 5

  • the shipwreck scene is similar to the disney version

  • Because Disney copied of this version. If you look closely, there are many similar aspects.

  • she has mi name!!

  • My namesake))) My name is Marina too)))

  • haha polka music on the ship

  • @jesssicaanne i knw, its sumwt disturbin

  • @jesssicaanne lol xD! They are especially at the beginnng I was like what the...is this a porn movie?! O_o

  • @jesssicaanne She doesn't make sexual noises. Quit making fun of the movie, being a pervert, and grow up.

  • @jesssicaanne doesnt even compare to when she drinks the potion

    of sea snakes and magic gasm serum

  • @jesssicaanne lol gotta agree. she does moan alot

  • @jesssicaanne they are a bit arnt they

  • this looks like an old japanese anime!

  • That IS an old japanese anime! ;)

  • too many pornographic noises coming from mirena. haha

  • I think it's a tumor. 6:00

  • lol fritz got blackmail!!
