Both Erics Are Iconic - Blog Posts
To be fair, animated Eric was probably shocked Ariel that became a mermaid. If my S/O suddenly turned into a mermaid, I would be shocked too.
Also, animated Eric is just as good as the live action version. Even though animated Eric had lesser screentime than his live action counterpart, he still showed enough great personality. He's adventurous, humble, brave, kind, shy, a dork and a hopeless romantic. Heck, he's willing to risk his life by returning to a burning ship to save his dog and impaling a giant sea witch to save his lover.
In conclusion: Both Erics are amazing in their own ways and we should stop bashing the animated version while praising the live action one.
FOR REAL!!!! live action ariel/eric >>> animation
