She's basically the protagonist of the japanese version of the lil' mermaid, the original one, with tragedy and all.
I don't know what to tell you... But I find her her closer to Selkies than to the Lil' Mermaid to be honest.
Tragedy or not, she just abandoned her husband and child to paddle her way back to the ocean... like Selkies did in the worst case scenario.

Well... Nevermind that, time to focus on the profile now that I can understand what it says.
First thing to mention is that he did the exact same thing previously done with other entries like Titania, Medusa, Echidna... naming a whole race after just individual... I guess that you just can say that said "race name" is more like a title inherited from the original/founding member (since it's safe to assume than most of those cases were a single entity rather than a race before the blight happened), but it feels like I'm giving it a million times more thought to this than the author himself...
It's also worth mentioning that is kind of disappointing that she didn't get any supplementary/extra art (even her underling got one for crying out loud) ^^U
Visually/design wise I like what I see... a lot, it's pleasant looking, alluring and compared to other designs of the same character in other media is actually rather a clever and original concept. For the first time in months I actually can honestly commend the guy in something... which is way beyond rare.
However this one feels like Titania in a sense that she doesn't feel regal at all... It's almost as if the status of royalty didn't seem fitting on them...AT ALL (the same goes for Titania too, I even mentioned back when her translation got released).
When I imagine Otohime the first thing it comes to my mind is a dignified and refined regent with archaic speech patterns ("Warawa", "Kisama" and the like) and mannerisms... not a selfish, and carefree lass who's more worried in partying hard all night long and spinning right round like a record than ruling her kingdom... err... sorry... summer resort effectively.
The same goes for her affection's targets, I kinda imagine Otohime rewarding kindness instead of just choosing the fellow with the most over the top reactions, the loudest moans or the most frantic hip thrust ratio.
I can't say it's bad... But I find it unfitting for this particular entry.
At the very least I can say that I kinda look forward to see more fanart and rule 34 of her (since there is literally none yet) and I also find kinda funny that there's literally no way out of "Dragon Complex", even if you get out... you'll end up coming back to it.
Ryugujo in a nutshell
.P.S.: It would have been hilarious if Otohime would actually make her husband to both sire
and bear her children (lower body of a sea horse after all) XD
