About this product

Product Information

Rumiko Takahashi, one of the premier creative minds in the world of manga and anime and one of Japan's most beloved storytellers, is the author behind the horror-fantasy series MERMAID FOREST. Yuta has lived for almost 500 years after inadvertently eating a mermaid's flesh, which he has discovered is the ticket to immortality. He wanders the world, depressed and lonely, unable to connect to other people because they grow old and die while he remains. Seeking out another mermaid, hoping that she will know a way to restore his humanity, he encounters Mana, who has also gained the questionable advantage of immortality from consuming a mermaid. With a moody and tragic tone, MERMAID FOREST is a violent fantasy series that, despite its two strong protagonists, often focuses its stories on the villains and enemies that Yuta and Mana encounter on their quest. This collection presents the series in its entirety.

The Darkest Rumiko Takahashi Anime
Mermaid Forest is a dark anime from the mind who gave us Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha. In the anime a man who once ate the flesh of a Mermaid, became immortal, at the start of the series he befriends a woman who also became immortal from eating the flesh of a Mermaid, now they both wish to find a cure for there immortality. But will they ever find, or continue to live on forever? While I won't spoil anything, I will say it's the darkest thing Rumiko Takahashi came up with.
