Hooked from the First Splash
What an enchanting and memorable series from start to finish. From the very first scene, hot, shirtless men walking into the ocean, the show establishes a unique tone that blends fantasy, beauty, and undeniable BL charm. This was my very first Mermaid themed BL and it absolutely exceeded my expectations. The concept feels refreshing and the execution brings it to life in the most captivating way.
The series maintains a lighthearted, easy to follow atmosphere while being visually gorgeous throughout. The mermaid CGI is surprisingly well done, and the tails are crafted with so much care that the underwater world feels genuinely magical. Every swimming and surfacing moment looks like a piece of art, adding an extra layer of wonder that makes the story even more engaging.
The main couple truly carried the show. Phu is irresistibly charming with the sweetest smile, and Nawa has a captivating presence that balances perfectly with him. Their chemistry is instant, playful, fun and full of sparks from the moment they meet. Watching their relationship grow felt natural and consistently enjoyable.
What I Loved:
• The OST is beautiful and instantly memorable
• Nawa and Phu’s dynamic, the way Phu stays consistent and never gives up on pursuing Nawa, is heart fluttering. Their kiss scenes and NC scenes are hot, well executed, and full of emotion
• The side couple, Phana and Ping, added depth to the series. Ping’s storyline with his mother was heartbreaking and brought me to tears
The ending was great, though I would have loved an even more complete or extended conclusion for the couples. Still, the overall experience was wonderful. Lover Merman is unique, emotional, visually stunning, and absolutely rewatch worthy.
