Besides, the Japanese loved mermaids going way back. They did a version
of "The Little Mermaid" back in 1973 (she or her sisters were topless
in it, IIRC), a much better version of Andersen's tale than Disney's,
if you ask me.
Are you referring to Mako the Mermaid
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1387
Just the first episodes follow, very losely, Andersen's tale, specially
with the fact that Mako could talk.
I think he was referring to the feature film that was released in the US on
VHS as "Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid". I believe he got
the date wrong. Anderusen Dowa Ningyo Hime, the movie, I believe was
released in 1975. Maho no Mako-chan, the TV series, aired in 1970 and
1971.
