I appreciate you, user.

>Wouldn't they be mammals?
so those fins and scales didn't give you a clue?
why do people have so much trouble with the concept of liminal beings? they're literally all over mythology. They aren't one thing, they're two or more things. A manticore isn't an arachnid just because it has a scorpion tail, or a reptile just because it has dragon wings, or a robot because it has iron teeth. It's a monster that happened when a dragon, a human, a lion, and a scorpion fucked in some combination, then their kids fucked, and a bear trap or something watched.

I think the joke here is that she is not used to having a tail.

I was joking, user.

It's usually when someone wants to try and make guesses what other non-described or referenced parts might be like.
For example in the case of mermaids, "if they're mostly mammalian, then they'd have mammalian like genitals rather than fish."

People want to fuck mermaids, and fish don't have genitals that are particularly compatible with that. Fish just squirt out eggs and leave them lying around like trash and males shake their sperm out over them. So people like to hypothesize ways a mermaid fucking might work.

Just have them have shark pussy

Or dolphin vagina.

Or penis.

Why do you know it’s a thing

>People want to fuck mermaids, and fish don't have genitals that are particularly compatible with that.
The females do. All females are basically the same. A hole's a hole. The trouble is with males. Yeah they don't have a dong. but EVERYTHING has a vagina. It baffles me and drives me up the wall how often people discuss this "problem"
Now the human genes have turned the fishtail horizontal like a cetacean, just like the fish genes have made the human bits low on body hair and sometimes have little extra fins on the elbows or ears or whatever (and let them breathe underwater) so it makes sense the fish genitals could be a bit more mammalian if you want.. it's just definitely not a problem for merMAIDS.
the only problem, really, is that the bits in question are undeniably midway down the tail, so you wouldn't get that nice faces-line-up thing

Do fish do the penetration thing then?
Are fish vaginas set up to be able to take a dick - fish or otherwise?
I guess I'm asking if fish biology, when scaled up, able to accommodate being penetrated? Because I was under the impression fish-gina was set up just to be an exit only thing.

unless you think there's a valve inside that's set to allow eggs out but absolutely refuse taking an object in, I would be confident assuming that holes are holes. we don't have anything like that for our poop chute after all, and it's not designed to accomodate anything coming in that direction.
I've seen Steve Irwin fit his finger inside the cloaca of a BUNCH of animals.. but now that I think about it, none of those were specifically fish. Mostly reptiles, which DO have dicks, so.. hmmmm..

You raise a good point about the human butthole.
That is most assuredly not designed as an entrance. And that's before raising the point of where the male prostate/g-spot in men is.

the only thing I could think is if they had some kind of anti-penetrative barrier to keep water from flooding the fish at high pressure, but if crocodiles and turtles don't need that....

Depends on the roe, I think.
For humans, turds and penises often have some overlap in size, meaning in order to fit a turd out the poop chute, it has to be able to fit something roughly that sized. as it so happens, that size and shape is similar to the penis.

For fish, they push out little tiny eggs. Which means their fish-ginas are sized proportionally to what they were built to push out. If a fish, human sized or otherwise were to push out big round roe the same diameter as a penis, then it would stand to reason the fish-gina in question would be able to take something that large in.

Of course, roe and eggs aren't always proportional to the size of their adult species.

That's a good point. I've seen fish make some pretty skinny turds. Then again, most fish are fatter than most mermaid tails, so if you imagine a tail as LONG as a goldfish's, but with the proportions of a mermaid's, with the poop size scaled up, a smallish penis would fit inside comfortably.

My thought too. what the dink?

The ultimate crux of this argument I find really sums it up well was when user pointed out that most mythological creatures are, in his words, liminal.
meaning that because it is a being of fiction, it can be whatever it needs to be for the story or media it's in. If a porn fanfic or piece of drawn smut demands mermaids have human or mammalian vagina, then they can be drawn that way. The rules are at the discretion of the creator, with the only limits being the mermaid should be recognizable as one. If you can still look at it and say, "yup, mermaid" you can give them whatever bits you like, I think.

That's not what liminal means, though. It just means they're two different things. Hybrids. you can't push "anything could happen because it's fictional" to a silly extent and expect the thing to still be cool, and cool is what matters most. I was that user, anyway, and I'm also one of the poeple saying quit putting knees in them (or worse, treating the tail like pants that start mid-thigh. that's fucking disturbing. worse than those kids that draw centaurs with genitals up on the horse chest)

Close enough.

I don't disagree at all.
But I didn't say whether or not it looked cool. Or good. Or sexy. Only that you'd be able to recognize it as a mermaid.

But yeah, I'm with you on mermaid tail design; a tail isn't a pair of fused legs.

It is possible for tritons to have a dong, possibly something kinda reptilian. It's also possible to have something like special fins in that area that work as a dong replacement, like sharks have, and a lady could get fucked by those and let some white roe flow along them into her human vagoo..

Yes she did, and yes it is.

Head's up that it's still a pretty grim dark fantasy series first going into it. It has its share of light-hearted characters as things progress, but cute merrow girl isn't the primary focus.

Attached: Isma_Fishing.jpg (540x599, 130K)

That's what I was thinking, like, since when does Berserk have shit like this in it? No wonder people are always recommending it to me. It apparently has good parts.
All the bits I saw directly were just way too grim to enjoy. but I liked Gigantomakhia.

Berserk can be quite dark and depressing, but not really in a way that I'd call edgy or forced (at least not most of the time).

I feel that the main appeal of the series is still the strong characterization, and experiencing how the cast and the world around them changes over time.

is the anime pretty faithful? for some reason I can tolerate tragedy better in animation. a book is so crushing and personal.

1997 anime? Yes
There is also a movie trilogy from 2012, they are quite loyal to the manga too, both the movies and the 97 anime covers only a single arc of the manga though (the Golden Age arc)

There's also the 2016 anime but lets just pretend that horrendous blasphemy doesnt exist

I think the 1997 anime is the only one really worth watching personally. The movies are an okay but abridged version of what the first anime already covered, and the 2016 adaption is a mess.

1997 can be a strong introduction to the series, but it only really adapts the first major story arc and leaves out certain details. Need to read the manga to get the full story.

I can handle some tragedy, i play JRPGs, I can get a good cry on when someone suffers because of fate, but everything about Guts just seems really unpleasant, and the art seems to get just not fun to look at when he's around.

You're an idiot, a Mermaid is more likely to have a vagina like a dolphin than anything.

Not a fan of these wide fin/lip things at their waist. It makes it look like their tail is actually just a whole fish that is swallowing a lady.
Because so many go for this waspish waist look for sex points, it makes it stand out really badly.

i hate Once Piece so fucking much

mermaids should have long pointy ears, agreed?

Really? I always preferred it because it accentuates the hips and gives a hint of lingerie where none is. That said, it basically became popular thanks to the Disney film.

God I love mermaids...imagine being one...it'd be like being in eternal bondage...hnnnnnnnnng I'm hard

Seconded. I thought it was just a simple gag manga at first glance, but it's the most I've enjoyed a manga in years.

Friendly reminder that A Centaur's Life has mermaids.

it also has a rigidly ultra-PC society where centaurs were once an oppressed minority so it's now illegal to ride one even if they offer.
and they wear clothes. like, ALL the clothes.

the art is fairly generic, maybe you're just a pendant.

Yeah, I don't give a single fuck about the political stuff and I wish he'd cut that shit out. I just want more of my cute snek-fu.
I just mentioned it because I see what I assume is Dungeon Meshi posting here, but not a single mermaid from Centaur's Life.

Nah he's right, it looks like pretty generic tumblr style, lesbians don't help things.
Could be worse though.

tumblr art is generic now
yeah it is fucking cute to look at, plus there's cute loli centaur baths.

I'm imagining a mermaid flopping her way to a tattoo parlor, just so she can go home and show off in front of her mermaid friends.

most comics aimed at girls look like that.

Bless you, sir.

I always prefer the ones who can make legs. now for the sake of balance and plausibility, it's fine if it's difficult, takes a long time, or requires a magic trinket.. or a trinket makes it faster or easier.. or maybe it's a bit painful..
and I definitely insist legs come out of the hips while the tail shrinks, rather than the tail splitting, that's just silly. she's not a seal.

Holy hell what a pair of dumbasses.

modern society can be really confusing. you have nice feelings for someone and everyone's like YOU NEED TO FUCK AND YOU NEED TO BE PART OF THIS ELABORATE COUNTERCULTURE WE BUILT

It's true. Her tummy's vulnerable.

I prefer to imagine she found an old rusty wheelchair in some wreckage, and tossed it up on the dock so she could squeak her way into town.

Yeah that can work. also I know I've seen at least one mermaid who could make legs, but they were weak and flimsy and she still had to be carried or wheeled around most of the time.

Unf

anyone ever draw an ethel merman mermaid?

I don't know, but I DID just notice that "Diana" and "Naiad" are anagrams.

holy shit, and Nadia too. how has nobody ever drawn her delicious brown ass as a mermaid?

there we go.
it's always seemed weird to me how her name is almost ethel mertz

Unda da sea
reckon we're getting a shitty live action remake of that next?

Mulan is coming first but TLM is almost definitely in the works. There was a rumor last year that Disney wants Zendaya for Ariel.

>itt: people who think fish have a cloaca
Uh, no. Most fish are oviparous, but even then they have separate anal and urogenital vents. a cloaca (found on birds and reptiles) is a single opening for everything. The viviparous fish (guppies, sharks) will likewise have separate structures, but in this case males have a gonopodum or claspers. Learn your biology ffs before posting in a thread like this.
On top of that, when talking about merfolk, the hybrid/liminal argument holds a lot of water (no pun intended), not just because of the sideways tail thing, but because no merperson can ever be considered "fully human" above the waist, or else they couldn't see, or breathe, or even just survive for any length of time, in salt water. So there is absolutely zero logical reason to suppose they'd be "fully fish" -below- the waist. Dolphin bits ftw, in other words. Makes the most sense, and explains the navel.

i mean that'd be hot, but inappropriate
can't we just rise up and overthrow the people running disney and annex it for ourselves?

why would fish have separate anal and urogenital vents? that's insane. Everybody knows that everything that isn't a mammal has just the one hole. Sometimes there's a dick in that hole, but that's it.

What would you say the proportional diameter of the urogenital vent is to tail size? Assuming roughly half the body equals "mermaid tail" real estate?

You're a fucking dumbass.

it's not that weird to expect a fish-mammal hybrid to have some amphibian-reptilian features. that's why Ponyo
weird movie, Ponyo. she's never explicitly called a ningyo, but clearly is one, just like her dad is clearly a shojo (from his hair to the whole magic sake brewing thing), yet was supposedly formerly human.

Since the fuck when does a fish micturate, and why the fuck would it? mixing your uric acid into your generic excretion is good enough for reptiles and they're not even underwater. that's the least useful organ a fish could possibly have.
In any case, that looks like one hole to me, or at laest REALLY close neighbors. only difference being a reverse front-to-back order to what mammals have. That'd be so weird to have your poop chute first, then vagoo, then piss hole. Fucking fish. no wonder idiot scientists think you don't exist.

so what you're saying is fingering a mermaid is like playing a flute

>she would be in for animal cruelty
Don't you have slaughterhouses in your country?

I loved this episode as a kid

That's an interesting concept. Is an actual thing from any material or you just made up now?
