User blog comment:Akali95/Bepo, Pappug, Shyarly, Shirahoshi, how?/@comment-1595565-20120420164612

Pappug taught himself how to talk because he thought he was a human when he was a kid. It's a joke on how the Japanese words for human and starfish sound similar. Bepo learned to talk the same way Pekoms did. As for the mermaids, some people are just born with weird abilities, kind of like in the real world. I mean, we have psychic detectives and Cesar Milan. For Shyarly, it was the ability to see the future. For the first mermaid princess it was the ability to talk to Sea Kings. If you want a bs answer, Shyarley's mom was punched in the uterus in the wrong place at the right time. The first princess was exiled to live with the Sea Kings and learned how to speak like them. So it became ingrained in her DNA because it can do that because I said so. When she returned, everyone called her Fish Tarzan. I now hate myself for making up stupid crap to justify something we just can't explain.
