Mermaid Saga

Finished

人魚の森

According to ancient legend, consuming the flesh of a mermaid grants immortality. Yet this supposed blessing is a cruel curse, as the result can also be a horrific death or transformation into a monstrous 'lost soul.' Yuta, a former fisherman, has wandered Japan for over five centuries since he ate mermaid meat, seeking not eternal life but a way to end it and become human again.

His quest leads him to a remote, hidden village inhabited only by women, where he discovers the dark truth of their society. They capture and cultivate young girls, feeding them mermaid flesh to create perfect vessels for sustaining their own youth and immortality. There, Yuta rescues Mana, a girl who has suffered this fate, and they escape together.

Bound by their shared curse, Yuta and Mana journey through time, longing for a normal existence. Along the way, they encounter others who have sought the mermaid's power, each facing a different and often tragic destiny shaped by the mythical flesh.
