I love him, too! I'm sure Disney ripped him off to create Flounder, seeing as how Andersen's fairy tale doesn't have an animal sidekick, and Toei's version of the story came out before Disney's version.
I like when the Sea Witch talks to Marina for the first time, and Fritz stood up after being hit, only to faint. So cute! All of the times that he cries because of Marina (when Marina leaves the Sea Witch, when he learns that the prince will marry another, etc.) make me feel so depressed. Then, when he calls after Marina at the end, I just lose it. My heart breaks. I'm normally not into artistic licenses of original works, but I was okay with the addition of Fritz. Ariel's friends, on the other hand, are so annoying.
