I love this quest, it’s absolutely beautiful!
Ugh I just wish they wouldn’t make so many of the new dollz only with milky skin, it would have been awesome if they just gave us multiple copies of the really pretty swimmer in different skin tones as part of the quest, instead I have to spend an extra 299$$$ in the flash store just to have her with brown skin :/ it’s still thoughtful Though.
And Is it just me or is that other doll from the game of thrones mini quest? It looks like they removed her scar and changed her make up lol

It took me to look the name up of Sanji to tell me you were referring to the anime One Piece, Haelina...To answer your question, it's probably because they had other One Piece characters in the quest where you get the Fort room; like Luffy and Ace (I think, I'm not a fan of the anime so I can only guess going by their look. Well, I know who Luffy is, I'm just not good at naming the others...) You can find them in my alt doll's [Sarahspells] room Star Villa.

Anyway, the prizes for this quest are super pretty. I'm gonna have to cover up the top to that one mermaid with the guy, though. The 'male' Ariel is cute, so is Flounder (you got Sebastian the crab from the Fort room quest last year, too.)

It would definitely be nice if they did offer the models in different skin tones, I believe that 'variety is the spice of life' - I have two accounts that need more dark-skinned girls.

I thought the model at the end of the quest also looked familiar...

Why put this room in the Film tab?    Could of put it in the Trip tab, by moving the submarine room over... just saylng..

It looks very pretty I like most of it (except for the two that seem to be cuddling) But that's an OPINION. I will be deleting that one.

absolutely love this quest!   Is it just me or does the mermaid in ending one look like Shirahoshi from One Piece? Aww love ending 2 as well because of Sanji but I love the room more

Now that you pointed it out she does. I forgot about her until you brought it up. I actually forgot about a lot of One Piece characters. I love this quest and can't wait to use the items to update my other mermaid room and the new one.

I hope we get Zoro soon too He is my favorite character <3

THIS IS MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE QUEST!!!! I am so in love with the ocean, and the room + music box fits right at home.

You can read what happened with the other side of the story by checking out Rheasilvia's guide.

Yes, you are correct, sirens were ugly bird-like women. However, I've read several different mermaid stories (Big fan of fairy tales, here) and mermaids have also sunk ships and drowned men. I consider them part of the neutral fairy creature class, as opposed to evil or good. They can either choice to help land-dwellers/sailors, or decide to leave them to drown. Supposedly mermaids are more likely to drown men simply because the men fall head-over-heels in love with their beauty that they try to follow the mermaids - to their DOOM - and the mermaids don't realize that the  men can't breath under water.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised that mermaids and sirens still get mixed up is because some languages spell 'mermaid' similar to 'siren':

French - sirène

Italian - sirena

For the translation? Yeah, I think most of us agree that the French team simply use Google Translate and copies and pastes it into the box without fixing any of those minor errors - since one word in another language can have many meanings in another and convey quite the opposite when placed in a sentence. 'Ran towards the coast on my bike' should have been 'rode towards the coast on my bike', but 'ran' and 'rode' can have similar meanings, even if they aren't the same type of verb. (I sound like an English teacher, oh my!)
