However, despite these qualities, Marlin has proven to love his son more than anything and anyone in this world, and it is this love that fuels his determination, strength, courage and bravery as he journeyed throughout the sea to find his son after he is kidnapped by humans. This caused him to have little patience for Dory's antics and other distractions. He also initially seems to be very serious, as shown when he couldn't tell a proper joke to some of Nemo's classmates' parents because he kept explaining obvious aspects of the joke, causing him to be considered unfunny despite the apparent notion that all clownfish were supposed to be funny, which became a recurring gag throughout the movie as others state, "He's not very funny for a clownfish".ĭuring his journey, Marlin was on the verge of losing Nemo, the only family he had left, and was rushing as fast as he could to save Nemo. However, this overprotectiveness is what put somewhat of a strain on his relationship with his son, as Nemo felt suffocated and oppressed by it. He was especially paranoid and neurotic about any potential danger that could occur to Nemo, and as such, rarely left Nemo alone due to the traumatic experience of losing the rest of his family to a barracuda attack, and not wanting the same thing to happen to Nemo. This protected him, but also cost him his entire family, with the exception of Nemo, who was left with a crack in his egg, which resulted him in having a tiny right fin.įrom this moment on, Marlin became overprotective, neurotic, paranoid, worrisome and pessimistic, as he made several practices and conditions for Nemo and himself to follow to make sure they were protected and safe. However, he was also shown to be very brave, as he attempted to defend his wife against the barracuda who sought to eat his children and his mate but was ultimately repelled and knocked unconscious and into the sea anemone before he could do anything. and the other half of his children Coral Jr. He was shown to be slightly lazy, as he wanted to name half of his children Marlin Jr. Marlin was initially a very playful, happy and easygoing clownfish, as seen through the interaction with his wife, Coral. However, this does not stop him from going on a journey to find his lost son, proving his determination. He also tends to be neurotic, worrisome, and pessimistic, believing Nemo can't swim well when he actually can swim pretty well for a fish with a small pectoral fin due to egg damage from the barracuda attack. Marlin can be somewhat overprotective of Nemo, although he means well. He once had a mate named Coral who died in a barracuda attack, along with all but one of his children, whom he names Nemo. Marlin is a clownfish who makes his home inside a sea anemone in the Great Barrier Reef.
