Goodbye, Lara Review: Crunchyroll's Near-Perfect Little Mermaid Reimagining

Crunchyroll's new 12-part fantasy series Goodbye, Lara reimagines The Little Mermaid in modern Japan with a tactile, hand-crafted animation style that recalls classics like Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. The series debuted July 6 and blends fairy-tale structure with local Shiga Prefecture specificity under director Takushi Koide.
