WHY DANGEROUS CROW BOY FITS INTO AARNE-THOMPSON-UTHER INDEX OF FAIRY TALE MOTIFS NUMBER 425C

It doesn't

Well probably it doesn't I don't actually know the background enough but I assume Miss Australia doesn't have jealous older sisters nor does she end up in the Fae as a payment for a stolen gift, unless that's how you want to interpret the nuclesr bomb or whatever the background story is,

HOWEVER.

ATU 425 is just "animal as bridegroom". It also includes the subtypws "The Witch's Tasks", "The Search for the Lost Husband", "The Vanished Husband", and "Enchanted Husband sings Lullaby"

While some of these are very similar the only actual unifying theme they have is that a human woman marries an animal, monster, enchanted human, or artificial person.

I don't have a tag for "ATU 425"
