When I saw Brave again on Blu-ray, Merida reminded me of other Disney princesses like Belle, Ariel, and Mulan in my opinion:


 * During an argument with the queen for disrupting the archery event (I saw the scene where the queen angrily stares at Merida for disrupting the archery event in the trailers/spots a long time ago on TV and movie theaters before Brave come out in theaters and I saw Brave a long time ago in theaters), the argument reminded me of Ariel arguing with King Triton about humans being dangerous to the merpeople (which hurts both: Ariel and Merida's feelings during their arguments), despite rescuing Eric from drowning during a storm safely, when I saw Brave again on Blu-ray. (I also saw Little Mermaid many times on TV, DVD, etc.).


 * The scene where Merida arrived at the witch's hut reminded me of Ariel going to Ursula's grotto after King Triton destroyed her treasures in her grotto and Elinor burning her bow due to her disruptive behavior during archery. The witch who has woodcarvings related to bears and the raven reminded me of Ursula and her eels in which Ariel decided to go to Ursula after her father destroyed her treasures and had her feelings hurt.


 * The scene where she rides on Angus reminded me of Belle riding on Philippe the Horse on an attempt to rescue her father, only to get attacked by a wolf pack in which the Beast saves her but gets wounded during a wolf attack, but that scene is different from than the one in the Beauty and the Beast cartoon; Merida decided to change her mother's fate after an argument with the queen by going to the witch's hut. The part where Merida started crying when riding on Angus on her way to the witch's hut reminded me of Mulan where she feels sad after getting shamed by the matchmaker where she is to be honored.
