* [[A Loonatics Tale|Rebecca Burg]] has released concept art which reveals that in Loonatic-land, merfolk are a type of aquatic ''vampire''. When they're luring in prey, they're fairly cute, if slightly overfinned. When they're about to feed, their eyes take on a crazed look, and their mouth splits into a grin which reveals that ''all'' their teeth are razor-sharp. And unlike some vampires in this setting, where being turned isn't even a guarantee, when a mermaid feeds on you, you become one.

* In [[Homestuck]], there's an alien race of horned, water-dwelling humanoids known as Sea Dwelling Trolls. They're considered Royalty among the Land Dwelling Trolls, and the only examples we see of them are the heir apparent and a [[Abhorrent Admirer|genocidal noble with a crush on her]].

* At the end of the first volume of ''[[Tales Of Gnosis College]]'', Li Anwei reveals that she is in the process of a slow transformation into something like a mermaid by showing expanded webbing growing between her fingers. She still looks pretty human when she takes to the sea, though.

So a chef decides to honour the Queen's guest rumoured to fancy "risque" outfits by making a great pie [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20191211 in the shape of her as a mermaid] (with [[Seashell Bra|starfish bra]]). Then the Deepdwellers see this and decide she really looks like this. Being on their territory and in a diplomatically tenuous situation, she and the rest of present [[Mad Scientist]]s figure a mermaid suit would solve the problem. Then it turns out that maybe this was what the Deepdwellers meant, because there [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20200406 used to be a strange order of humans] using sort of fish tailed diving suits, and ''they'' were in good relations with the Great Cetaceans and their minions, so it's taken as a good sign. Then [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20200422 on a submariner] we see… large, colourful tattoo of [[Youkai|Amabie]], with three tails and all, and the name to make it really clear.
