I’ve read “The Search” and liked it very much. It’s a story about Zuko looking for his mother (SPOILERS!) - You remember that cliffhanger at the end of the series? So, here we see the development of this. Here are two parallel stories: about the search and about Ursa’s youth and her early life as a wife of the Fire Lord. Both of them are interesting and of course, they are connected. In the search story, Azula is back, because Zuko wants her to help him in the quest, of course, she tries to run away or fight Zuko. And he tries to be a good brother, to be nice to her. Once, when he covers her during the cold night and finds a letter from his mother to her ex-boyfriend. It says that Zuko is their son. (actually (real SPOILERS!) it’s not true). Then Avatar team, Zuko and Azula find Ursa’s home village and a family of actors. And Zuko is very sweet in that scenes. Then we have a bunch of spirit stuff connected with faces (Remember that spirit from the end of the “Water” book? Like him, but here we have the Main Spirit of Faces.) and find out that actress from the village is actually Ursa. But she remembers nothing, and then Zuko comes back and Azula chases him. This woman, who doesn’t remember Azula, Zuko or anything felt sorry for Azula, who tries to kill her right now! But then she got her face and memories back and everybody is happy (well, except Azula).
This post wasn’t supposed to be so long, but it just happened… Sorry.

Hot Topic and Disney have teamed up to let the fans make and vote on some new t-shirt designs! This is mine! If you wouldn’t mind following the link and voting, it would be greatly appreciated!
It’s been my life dream to get to do some official art for Disney, and not only to get paid for it but for it to be sold across America at Hot Topic is beyond cool. Help me make my dream a reality!
The Sea Witch finished. Heavily influenced by Disney’s version, of course. At some point I would love to create my own graphic-novel rendition of The Little Mermaid fairy tale, in which the sea witch, rather than being the antagonist, is a sort of guide and mentor for the main character.
Ale’s illustration of Ariel, inspired to the great artist Lorena Alvarez Gómez.
“The scene where Ariel chooses to share his voice with Ursula, has always fascinated me since childhood. I think that represents all those big and small compromises that we are forced to accept just to see to realize our dreams.”Don’t forget to follow us on our blog, take a look at ourFacebook page and at our Instagram!:D
I decided to watch The Little Mermaid one evening and boom, this happened. This movie was one of my favorite disney movies while growing up. I’m thankful that we are able to easily access movies from our childhood.
Eyy!! a new illustration about the Little mermaid !! :) I was keen to draw this scene of the film ! you can see more of my work in my Instagram account:
Man I love me some Disney, and most of the time I’m, “The Little Mermaid is a fun, beautiful movie for all ages haha :) “
but every now and again
every now and again,
I remember the polyps in Ursula’s cave and I what the fuck WHAT THE FUCK
Ilose it. I am filled with the worst kind of repulsion and terror. It’s a plot device that wouldn’t have been out of place in an 80s body horror flick. If it had been in live action - oh shit it’s gonna be in live action soon - and without that bangin’ villain song, we’d all be talking about how it fucked us up A LOT more
No seriously what the fuck
Kudos to Disney Animation in the late 80s, putting mature themes and genuine horror in their movies, not dumbing things down for children, I love horror, but oh my god, goddamn, I am so emotionally weak to this kind of horror
Being transformed and shrunken down (is it painful too??) into a shriveled husk and rooted to the floor at the bottom of the ocean far away from everyone and everything you have ever loved, unable to speak of your horror regret and misery, surrounded by dozens (??) of other writhing moaning others whose nauseating appearance reflect the abomination you have become, forced to watch other hapless victims land themselves in the same trap oh my godthatONE POLYP WHO TRIED TO GRAB ARIEL IN A DESPERATE BID TO SAVE HER
Andno they didn’t deserve it, Ursula manipulates her victims, uses their desires and unfortunate circumstances as leverage, coerces them into unfair deals, and then cheats so that no matter what, YOU LOSE.
How long did some of those polyps stay there? How many years of their life did they lose?! Do they remember every graphic second after it happened? Do they have nightmares about it? They’re clearly sentient in that state, right??
Even the word polyp freaks me the fuck out and makes my stomach churn when I think about what real life polyps are and that they’re found inside people when something is wrong. I -hyuah,hyagh, BLUARGH
And that’s why, whenever I hear someone with a totally straight face suggest, “hey what if we got a thing from Ursula’s point of view? What if it’s like Wicked or Maleficent and she’s actually misunderstood” I want to claw their eyes out. I think there might even be a Disney YA novel like that already. You can’t convince me that she was just doing that to the Hitlers of the undersea world, you see her try to do it to Ariel LOL
Okay. Okay I’m fine. This episode will pass. I will go back to enjoying the song, the characters, the art
haha The Little Mermaid is a fun, beautiful movie :)
…but every now and then…
I understand people love villains because of their personality, style, etc. in fact, I absolutely love a lot of characters who are villains like N'Jadaka/Killmonger, The Joker, Kira Yoshikage, etc.
But when they start romanticizing them as “misunderstood,” I too get RILED UP.
I assume people “empathize” Ursula is probably because they hate Ariel for being “naive and dumb,” and think Ursula was just being “logical” when really she SCAMMED her. She intended for Ariel to fail. When Eric and Ariel started getting closer, she intervened. If she was true to her word, she wouldn’t have intervened.
Imagine if someone gets scammed, who do you blame: the scammer or the scammed?
Also, I can’t even imagine how traumatized those poor merpeople became after becoming polyps. Having to reunite with their families after years, fuck maybe even DECADES, of torment trapped inside a worm’s body?
