Its Lucia’s 13th birthday and trouble is brewing in the seven seas, however for the sake of the Pink Pearl Kingdom and Lucia’s indirect destiny, Lucia is instructed to go to the human world.There she would be with two agents already working in the human world. However along that way she runs into some resistance. Lucia is ambushed by The Dark Lovers, who are the minions of Gakuto. Escaping Gakuto's Minons, the mermaid Lucia assumes a human form and travels to dry land in order to find her long-lost pearl; when she finally does find her pearl, she also finds Kaito, the boy that she loves. Now Human Lucia has to win Kaito's heart, without revealing her mermaid identity to him. This in and of itself would be difficult enough, but even worse, Kaito is already in love with her mermaid self!
But Lucia has another burden to shoulder as well. She and her new friend Hanon are two of the seven mermaid princesses of the seven ocean kingdoms. Together, they must search for the other remaining mermaid princesses, and combine the power of their seven pearls to summon the ocean goddess, Aqua Regina. Aqua Regina is apparently the only being powerful enough to stop Gakuto, a mysterious villain who is terrorizing the ocean world. The problem is, many of the ocean kingdoms have already been destroyed by Gakuto, and the mermaid princesses have scattered, either gone into hiding, or already entrapped within Gakuto's castle.
There however is a more sinister force at work. Manipulating not only The Dark Lovers, but Gakuto as well. It appears that Gakuto has someone to answer to as well. His Princess: Sara. The former holder of the Orange Pearl and the Orange Mermaid Princess was the one responsible for the current chaos in the mer-world. It was because of her and her cosmic power of controlling the sea that cause the devastation of the Orange Kingdom located somewhere in the Indian Ocean.
Because of this, Sara felt herself unworthy of being the Princess and she revoked all duties she had, leaving her kingdom in ruins. Swimming away from her past, she felt her anger rise again. How could she be a victim to something so childish as unrequited love? This anger awoke Gakuto who had been sealed at the center of the triangle that the mermaid palaces inevitably formed. As she swam down, she reached a strange castle, and upon her arrival a key appeared before her. Sara knew to whom the castle belonged to. She'd heard the stories about the clan that Aqua Regina had sealed beneath the ocean. And there was the key that would unlock the gate of the castle, just sitting there, unguarded, waiting for someone to pick it up...
"I am no longer a princess. I am no longer anything...!"
Sara picked up the key. And then, from that time onward, she threw everything away... she threw it all away, this world of nothing but lies. Sara's one wish was to fill the world with darkness. Gakuto, whose loneliness led him to love her blindly, would go to any lengths to fulfill that wish. Driven by Sara's wishes, Gakuto began destroying the kingdoms of the ocean and hunting down the mermaid princesses, one by one. His first victim was Coco, Sara's loyal friend who refused to abandon her until it was too late. With Lucia now on human land, Lucia runs into a few mermaids along the way who help her not only find the pearl, but stop Sara and Gakuto from ruining both Human World and the mer-world.
