The mighty blobfish made it to being fish of the year in NZ in 2025, and for good reason! CHARISMA!

Yes, even if you look a lil smooshy, people will be intrigued enough to think you’re a bit cool.

Superworth noting: What you see here, and the pictures that made the blobfish go viral, that’s not what the fish usually looks like when minding its own business at ~1000m+ depth. What you see here, and in the memes is a blobfish that was rapidly removed from its highly pressurised environment into much less pressure, which deforms the poor thing, and probably kills them, too. So this would be a dead one pictured here.
