Short description

Follow Ariel's adventures before she gave up her fins for true love. When Ariel wasn't singing with her sisters, she spent time with her mother, Queen Athena. Ariel is devastated when Athena is killed by pirates, and after King Triton outlaws all singing. Along with pals Flounder and Sebastian, Ariel sets off in hopes of changing her father's decision to ban music from the kingdom.

What's left behind the scenes

Tara Strong voiced Ariel's sisters Adella and Andrina, giving Adella a normal voice and Andrina a squeaky one.
Kenneth Mars (1935-2011) was unable to voice King Triton because he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The actor passed away three years later.
