Disney's streaming operation lost $512 million in the most-recent quarter, the company said, bringing total streaming losses since 2019, when Disney+ was introduced, to more than $11 billion.

What difference does it make -- she is a fictional creature. No preference on the color of her scales or fins, I take it?

For what it is worth, this is how the actual creator of the story, Hans Christian Andersen, described her -- and she was not named either I don't think --

"They were six beautiful children; but the youngest was the prettiest of them all; her skin was as clear and delicate as a rose-leaf, and her eyes as blue as the deepest sea; but, like all the others, she had no feet, and her body ended in a fish’s tail."

Disney gave her red hair and the name Ariel.

But if you want canonical, there you go.

Sounds like her skin was green, to me?!

"They were six beautiful children; but the youngest was the prettiest of them all; her skin was as clear and delicate as a rose-leaf, and her eyes as blue as the deepest sea; but, like all the others, she had no feet, and her body ended in a fish’s tail.

When something like a black cloud passed between her and them, she knew that it was either a whale swimming over her head, or a ship full of human beings, who never imagined that a pretty little mermaid was standing beneath them, holding out her white hands towards the keel of their ship.

He fixed his coal-black eyes upon her so earnestly that she cast down her own, and then became aware that her fish’s tail was gone, and that she had as pretty a pair of white legs and tiny feet as any little maiden could have; but she had no clothes, so she wrapped herself in her long, thick hair.

Then the little mermaid raised her lovely white arms, stood on the tips of her toes, and glided over the floor, and danced as no one yet had been able to dance.

Then her sisters came up on the waves, and gazed at her mournfully, wringing their white hands.

The little mermaid leaned her white arms on the edge of the vessel, and looked towards the east for the first blush of morning, for that first ray of dawn that would bring her death. She saw her sisters rising out of the flood: they were as pale as herself; but their long beautiful hair waved no more in the wind, and had been cut off."

Rose-leaf? Then it's either green if it's fresh or brown if it's dated.

he does not write it had the color of a rose leaf, just that it was as clear and delicate as one.
he specifies her tone as pale and white.

It only says legs and hands were white. Every bipoc person has white feet and white palms. That is how we know rose leaf was dated.

I get it, muricans ancestors stole black people so now they got a bunch of them with no connection to their history and American history is only that of genocide and slavery and since they can´t very well just grab random African countries history to paste on african americans today it´s better to ju replace the stories they no longer have since being separated from the mother land with some old European stuff.
it´s cool.

Checked a few sites and here is the tale by H. C. Andersen.

(Edit: I mean, I checked sites to make sure all were consistent in wording. They were. So I chose a random one; Project Gutenberg is respected.)

I still don't care; Disney made up their own version in the toon and also in the live action.

He chose his words carefully, so why not porcelain, then?

Mermaids can be green. Their tails are green.

I never said she was green as a human. Obviously that would be a plot point.
