The story takes place in the underwater world of Mer. The army of the kingdom of Bars, until recently peaceful, begins a terrible war against its neighbors: the principality of Moslem and the ancient and glorious kingdom of Agadia. No one can explain how the small kingdom of Bars has reached such a power. In a short time, it manages to challenge much larger and more powerful realms. Meanwhile, two young 'spiritual knights' (Jo and Oz) make a living by killing marine monsters. The population, however, is not very tolerant towards the duo. People fear their powers, seeing them as a potential threat. The pair will unwillingly find themselves fighting the army of Bars, and the forces of darkness that have taken its head...

Where it came from
Shinkai Densetsu MEREMANOID was produced by TV Asahi and aired in 1997 as a late-nineties entry into the science-fantasy anime genre. The series was set in a post-apocalyptic future where the Earth has been largely submerged by rising sea levels, forcing humanity to live on floating cities. It reflects the era's fascination with environmental themes and nautical mystery, attempting to blend traditional adventure tropes with a distinct, somber aesthetic centered around the titular mermaid-like beings.
The production sought to distinguish itself through its unique world-building and character designs that emphasized fluid movement and aquatic motifs. Despite the ambitious premise of explorers navigating the deep ocean, the show remains a niche title in the landscape of late-nineties television animation. It is remembered primarily by genre enthusiasts for its atmospheric world-building and its place as a characteristic, if under-the-radar, example of TV Asahi's experimental programming during that period.
