You know it\u2019s serious science fiction if there\u2019s a dude who\u2019s literally just a fish.

You know The Little Mermaid is serious science fiction because it\u2019s about a daring\nyoung xenoanthropologist whose radical theories about alien cultures put her at odds with the reactionary isolationism of her society\u2019s ruling class. Having a dude who\u2019s literally just a fish is a bonus.
