Merrow (はんぎょじん, Hangyojin?, lit. Fishman or メロー, Merō?), also known as Fishite or Fish Man, is a recurring enemy in the Final Fantasy series. It is aquatic humanoid resembling a sahagin or mermaid.

The Sahagin was called はんぎょじん (Hangyojin?, lit. Fishman) in the Easy Type release. All other releases have used サハギ (Sahagin?).
Final Fantasy V[]
The Merrow is an enemy found on the Big Bridge. It is an unremarkable enemy, but is vulnerable to Level 5 Death for an easy victory.
Final Fantasy XI[]
Merrow are an aquatic subgenus of lamiae, trading their snake-like features for a more mermaid-like appearance. As with lamiae, they are primarily encountered in the Arrapago Reef.
Final Fantasy Legend III[]
The Fish Man is an enemy and potential transformation for party members.
Final Fantasy Dimensions[]
The Merrow was an enemy encountered in the Challenge Dungeon of the chapter "A Blessing in Disguise". Since the Challenge Dungeons do not appear outside the original phone release, the Merrow is dummied in all subsequent releases.
