This is my twisted take on the classic The Little Mermaid.
Nothing is a 1-for-1 retelling - but it stays close enough to feel nostalgic... while still letting you experience it like it's the first time all over again.
Shoto has always been fascinated by the human world.
The way they live... the things they create... the freedom they seem to have.
His father, King Enji, does not share that fascination.
In fact, he forbids it - banning Shoto from ever going near the surface.
But Shoto has never been good at listening.
One night changes everything.
When a violent storm tears through the ocean, Shoto saves a human prince from drowning - and in that moment, something shifts.
He falls for him.
Now torn between the life he's always known and the future he suddenly wants, Shoto makes a choice that will change everything.
To walk away from his world...
And take a chance on love.
Even if it means standing on his own two feet.
