Even the animation can't save it

I've seen this a few times as a kid and like almost everything I saw I thought it was good. Watching it now it hasn't really aged well. The animation's nice but everything else is bland. The story's about Ariel's daughter Melody (Tara Strong) trying to discover the sea when no one wants to tell her due to an incident where she was almost kidnapped by Ursula's sister Morgana while Ariel (Jodi Benson) and Eric (Rob Paulson) were celebrating her birth with King Triton.

This leads to Melody finding Morgana who tricks her into stealing Triton's trident in exchange for turning her into a mermaid. Along the way she befriends a duo made by a penguin named Tip (Max Casella) and a walrus named Dash (Stephen Furst) who want to prove themselves. There's really not much to say other than it's not all that. The songs are pretty forgettable and the characters don't have much personality. If anything they're kind've shells of their former self from the first movie. The only thing it has going for it is the animation. If you have little kids they'll enjoy it but for everyone else swim away from this dud.
