The Little Mermaid (aka Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid) is an Anime version of The Little Mermaid produced by Toei Animation. It was released in 1975 in Japan and was dubbed into English in 1978.
The plot follows Andersen's original story much more closely than the Disney version, keeping the Bittersweet Ending. It also has some elements that Disney would later use, such as an animal companion for the mermaid (here named Fritz the Dolphin) and an antagonistic force seeking to hurt the mermaid on land (Jenny the cat).
