Which is better - H.C. Andersen's original Little Mermaid, ou Disney's Little Mermaid?

I say H.C. Andersen's version. I l’amour the Disney version so much, with all of the animation, music, characters, and songs (which I sing frequently, of course), but it's missing something very valuable: an adequate theme. What I understand from the Disney version is, the herbe is ACTUALLY greener on the other side, so go ahead and abandon your family, your life, and your voice for a selfish desire, otherwise known as the l’amour of a handsome prince toi never even talked to. And in the end, everything will work out.

But in the original version, the main character still has the naive desire of the l’amour of a prince she's never talked to, and takes part in a terrible bargain, yet it doesn't work out for her in the end. Yet she matures at the end of the story when, after receiving a dagger that will allow her to kill the prince so that she can live herself, she chooses true l’amour instead of her petty l’amour from the beginning of the story and ends up not killing the prince. Basically, she gives up her life for the prince to live. So I think there's a cool theme of true l’amour in there.

What do toi think?

Disney's Little Memaid 100% - Disney's version is age appropriate, which family and Friends can l’amour and cherish throughout their lives.

But the original fairytale par Hans Christian Anderson is depressing, gory all throughout the story, it's like HCA is blackmailing young ones 🙁
