Dearest Mermaid

Dearest Mermaid

Finished

愛しき人魚

Umi is a tattoo artist carrying a mermaid's curse, born with a jet-black right eye and a hideous birthmark covering the right side of his body. Despised even by his parents, he hides the mark beneath a beautiful tattoo and lives secluded from the world, his only companions being the spirit guardians Kuro and Nishiki.

One day, he crosses paths with Mikagi, a swindling spirit medium who can see small spirits but cannot exorcise them. Mistaking Umi for a potential customer, Mikagi approaches him with a promise to remove the fish spirits and compliments his looks, but the flustered Umi runs away. The chance encounter leaves both men curious about each other, setting the stage for a once-in-a-lifetime love that may help them overcome their painful pasts.
