Background[]

Personality[]

Marina is a compassionate young mermaid and unlike the mermaids shown in the original Peter Pan film, she is helpful and unselfish. She joins Jake and the crew on occasions and when she does it makes all the difference. Marina seems to have feelings for Jake. She has a pet starfish named Sandy who she cares for and loves deeply. Sometimes when she's excited she does a little giggle. She is also shown to have the ability to communicate with the creatures of the Never Sea (as revealed in the episode "Bucky's Anchor Aweigh!").

Appearances[]

In "Jake's Jungle Groove", she was briefly seen at the end dancing with Jake, Izzy, Cubby, Skully, and two mermaids.

She played a large role in the episode "Save the Coral Cove!" Captain Hook and Smee are planning to dig up the bottom of the sea destroying many sea creatures' homes. She goes to Jake for help, but Hook ends up being chased away by an octopus and later his machine that somehow gains a mind of its own. The machine attempts to attack Bucky, but Marina ties a cord attached to it onto a shipwreck but it doesn't hold. Izzy defeats the machine and the cove is safe.

In the episode "Pirate Rock!", Marina overheard Jake's crew performing their song. She told them they should perform a show, much to the pirate's delight. She left to gather their friends to watch them perform at Pirate Rock. In the end, Marina was seen with the other friends, watching the pirates perform.

In "It's a Winter Never Land!", Marina and some other friends got together with Jake and his crew to celebrate a Christmas themed holiday. At the end of the episode, Captain Hook successfully stole all the gifts and the tree, however, Marina convinces her friends that their friendship is the only thing they need to have a fun holiday.

In "Bucky's Anchor Aweigh!", Marina and the pirates get together to present a gift to the ship Bucky, a golden anchor. However, Hook and his crew steal the anchor having Bucky chasing after them. Even though Bucky left, he left the crew behind. Marina suggests the pirates use an old washed up dingy that fortunately still floats. With the help of their octopus friend, they manage to reunite with Bucky and retrieve the anchor.

She is apparently the guardian of the sea, as indicated in "Undersea Bucky!" When the light of the mermaid dominated Neptune City vanishes, Marina was called forth to find a solution to the problem.

In the episode "The Mermaid's Song" it's revealed Marina has a younger sister named Stormy. After finding out from Snappy about what Stormy has been doing, she calls for her presence. She tells her that while she didn't mean any harm, Captain Hook, Mr. Smee, and Cubby didn't like being used for selfish reasons. Stormy says that she didn't think that would happen and apologizes for her actions. Marina reminds Stormy that the Mermaid Song should be used to help others and should never be used selfishly.

Marina makes a speaking cameo appearance along with her sister Stormy, Sandy the Starfish, and the rest of the Never Land friends took part in Jake's birthday celebration in "Jake's Birthday Bash!"

Marina was present when Jake and his crew return to Mermaid Lagoon with the Fa la la water that would cure Queen Coralie. as Jake was about to hand the bottle to Queen Coralie, Captain Hook swoops in and stealing the bottle.

Relationships[]

Jake[]

And I actually think that she has a little romance with Jake budding.
Ariel Winter at an early interview for the show.

Marina is shown to have romantic feelings toward Jake. She seems to care for Jake's safety more than anyone else's. She also seems to create a small change in Jake's personality. Marina became very excited when Jake joined her in the water in the episode "Surfin Turf", and even had a slight blush possibly because of the crush. In one episode when Marina asked Jake to watch her pet starfish, she asked in a flirtatious tone.

Marina's love was confirmed when voice actress Ariel Winter stated during an interview, "I think Marina may have a little crush on Jake. I've seen that a bit throughout the script. She's always there to help him in her sweetest voice...."

Trivia[]

  • Marina's debut episode, "Surfin Turf", has become one of the series' most recognizable premieres.
  • Marina's heroine side in "Save the Coral Cove!" has a few similarities to Ariel from The Little Mermaid, rendering the first name of her voice actress and both characters being mermaids.
  • Despite her actress confirming Marina's crush on Jake, the creators have yet to confirm this or not.
  • The flying surfboard ride at the end of "Surfin Turf" is reminiscent of the magic carpet ride in Aladdin.
