Reports of stolen fish, destroyed nets, and strange singing lead Pro Hero Shota Aizawa to a secluded coastal cove. He expects a villain. He finds a mermaid. After freeing the mysterious woman from an abandoned fishing net, Shota assumes their encounter is over. Then he returns the next evening and discovers a pearl waiting for him. Soon, gifts begin appearing whenever he visits: shells, sea glass, jewelry, and treasures pulled from the ocean floor. Believing he’s slowly earning the wary mermaid’s trust, Shota begins leaving gifts of his own. Food. Fruit. Warm blankets. Little objects that remind him of her. There’s only one problem. Shota thinks they’re becoming friends. According to merfolk tradition, they’re courting. And while Shota remains completely unaware of the relationship he’s accidentally participating in, somewhere beneath the waves, one very pleased mermaid has already started telling her family about the strange, sleepy land-dweller who keeps bringing her gifts.
