マーメイドメロディーぴちぴちピッチ
Lucia has just transferred to a new school, and between classes she helps her sister run a public bath that has become the talk of the neighborhood. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Kaito, a surfer boy she cannot stop thinking about.
There is one complication: Lucia is a mermaid, and not just any mermaid, but a princess charged with protecting the seven seas from a dark force that wants to rule the marine world. Her duty leaves little room for the ordinary worries of a student, and even less for a romance with a boy who knows nothing about the sea she comes from.
Caught between the two, Lucia sets out to defend her home and the people she loves, while trying to win Kaito's heart without revealing what she really is.
