SynopsisLucia is the new girl at school. She and her sister run a public bath that's all the rage. When Lucia meets a terrific-looking surfer boy, there's just one little problem: Lucia is a mermaid-not just any mermaid, but a princess on an important mission to save the seven seas from an evil force bent on taking control of the marine world. Such a responsibility doesn't leave much time for romance. But Lucia vows to protect her world and win the heart of handsome Kaito. (Source: Del Rey)

After I saw the anime I felt I had to read the manga. I love cheesy stories with mermaids and such in it. And so I came to like the story in the manga as much as the storyline in the anime. The anime is better though, despite the numerous fillers I enjoyed it far more.
The art was fairly good, not the best I've seen but certainly not the worst, the character development was bad. I find that the author wasn't able to properly develop them, all Luchia was in my eyes, was a stupid girl who can only think of Kaito, no personality what so ever. Hanon was a little better developed and so was Lina. They had a little more story to themselves but it still seemed quite superficial.
In my opinion this manga is nothing more than mediocre, the story itself though I liked the idea got a bit annoying because the author seemed to skip some parts so that the characters were suddenly in a whole different place, doing a whole different thing, this was confusing it times.
So overall this manga is mediocre with no high reread rate, I would not recommend it to people but I wouldn't tell them to not read it either. It's something you pick up when you have nothing better to do. read more

I watched Mermaid Melody anime and I think the manga is better because is better explained and there isn't so many attacks and demons >o<
There is more romance between Kaito and Luchia and that is good!

Both are Idol/Singer manga. Hatsune Mix also has a 'Mermaid' chapter that is simular to Pichi :)

Both have cute girls, and cute men. Both have Mahou Shoujo and the men also have powers. Both main character girls aren't originally from Earth. Usagi's previous life was on the Moon while Luchia is a mermaid from the Pacific Ocean. Both are totally in love with their men and both bicker with them.
