| Mertropolis is inhabited by mermaids with fish heads and human legs, and is ruled by [[King Mackerel]]. His daughter, [[Holly Mackerel]], is also featured prominently during its appearance. Since its residents are unable to breathe air, they wear water-filled fishbowls around their heads while in the city; yet, they panic when King Koopa attempts to flood it. | | Although Mertropolis is oxygen-filled, the residents are fish with human legs. Since fish cannot breathe oxygen, the people of Mertropolis wear water-filled fishbowls. (Strangely, the citizens panicked when Bowser flooded the place.) Notable residents of Mertropolis include its ruler [[King Mackerel]] and his daughter [[Holly Mackerel]]. |
