Siren's Lament, Season 1 by instantmiso

3.0

I did enjoy this to some extent.

Yes, it's full of clichés. But, fuck it. The art is beautiful, the story is engaging, and the characters are likeable.

DESPITE OF IT ALL, IT IS PRETTY ANNOYING TOO.

Their main goal throughout the story is to find a person who's brokenhearted and transfer the curse to that person. What did they do, you ask? Of course, they transferred it to the person that you least expected, to bring the most ANGST for the next season.

I mean, they had MANY chances to find the right person. But they focused more on their internal conflict rather than what is important. I get it, they're teenagers. But if I were in their shoes I would find a solution first on preventing how can I not fully turn into a mermaid and lose my humanity before thinking if I really like my childhood bestfriend or if they don't see me the way I see them. Come on!
