Description

Mermaids are not peaceful creatures but cruel beasts, and whoever eats their flesh can attain eternal life. But only very few who eat the flesh survive the transformation process unscathed and gain immortality, as it is also a deadly poison. Yuta and Mana, who ate the meat many years ago, were among the few to survive the transformation process. However, immortality is as much a blessing as a curse, so they travel the world, helping people and searching for a mermaid who can make them mortal again.

During their journey, they meet the little boy Masato, who has a strange relationship with his mother, Misa. However, Yuta and Mana soon learn that despite his angelic face, Masato is not as innocent as he looks. He is in possession of mermaid flesh, and the relationship between mother and son is not what it seems …
Meerjungfrauen sind keine friedlichen Lebewesen, sondern grausame Bestien, und wer ihr Fleisch isst, kann das ewige Leben erlangen. Aber nur die wenigsten, die das Fleisch essen, überstehen den Umwandlungsprozess unbeschadet und erlangen die Unsterblichkeit, da es ebenso ein tödliches Gift ist. Yuta und Mana, die das Fleisch vor vielen Jahren gegessen haben, haben den Umwandlungsprozess als eine der wenigen überlebt. Allerdings ist Unsterblichkeit genauso ein Segen wie ein Fluch, weswegen sie die Welt bereisen, Menschen helfen und nach einer Meerjungfrau suchen, die sie wieder sterblich machen kann.

Während ihrer Reise treffen sie auf den kleinen Jungen Masato, der eine seltsames Verhältnis zu seiner Mutter Misa hat. Allerdings erfahren Yuta und Mana bald, dass Masato trotz seines engelsgleichen Gesichts nicht so unschuldig ist, wie er aussieht. Er ist im Besitz von Meerjungfrauenfleisch und die Beziehung zwischen Mutter und Sohn ist nicht das, was sie zu sein scheint …
