I watched Mermaid Melody when I was like 8 years old. I'm 19, turning 20 this year and I just now realized how beautiful yet sad Mikeru's song was. For a kids show, many Mermaid Melody songs have such a deeper and beautiful meaning to them.
I'm 20 right now in college, remembering how I used to sing this to myself in the playground around 7. I still remember the sorrow from this song. It's always been an amazing sad song
I like how creators put so much effort for the songs since its a child show but every single song is unique and just amazing in its own way. Both happy and sad ones, they all are engraved in my heart as a nostalgic memory of childhood innocence but awarnes of emotions
🥺 I’m turning 20 on December 30th, it feels good knowing there’s other people like me who are 20 and had mermaid melody as a part of their childhood. I didn’t know how to watch the anime, but I was (am) obsessed with the music and character designs. The Italian versions of the songs are great too
Honestly I don't think it was as much jealousy. More desperation. Mikaru had been alone for so long because of her illness (and possibly effects from having her become Mikeru's other self) When Mikaru found Kaito and he cared about her and her wellbeing, she began to feel something other than loneliness and sadness. Then Luchia came into the picture (Mikaru wasn't aware of Luchia being Kaito's girlfriend and was terrified to listen so she refused) and she was terrified someone (maybe even Luchia) would take Kaito away and she'd be thrown back into the loneliness and sadness she felt before. I do agree it could have been handled better from Mikaru though.
@Moj Istanbul actually in the manga she is more calm and less jealous and crazy, it's just that the anime adaptation made her and other characters more cliche and also exaggerated their traits
@@Nobody-sf4cv Yes, Mikaru was less annoying too because it was explained that her mother died after she was born and she was ill during her whole childhood
When you first hear this song, you will now understand the sadness and loneliness he goes through. He's like gaito. Until gaito made the dark lovers he was all alone.
I think LB is supposed to be ambiguous, kind of a cross (no pun intended) between "visual kei" and "generic bishie". Then again, various dubs have swung one way or the other.
I know i am late but try listening this song to different language. This one is on Serbian and trust me it still have awesome voice. ua-cam.com/video/h0zH0jFeorw/v-deo.html
@masakasama Actually, he mentioned in the last episode that the Panthalassans are descendants of the Ancients too. And I'm also pretty sure everyone else refers to Mikeru with a 'he' pronoun. But regardless of him being voiced by a woman, he and Bat are most definitely male in body, if not necessarily gender identity.
Thank you! 1. For believing he's a guy 2. For liking his song more than the girl's (this one was the first anyway) Don't mind me, just a spectator roaming the internet~ :3
Why does everybody hate Mikaru and Mikeru? For goddess' sake,let it go already,people,if Luchia the princess who had no single one problem in her life manned up and explained Kaito everything that happenned and if he manned up not to hide behind Mikaru's skirt, none of this would have happenned! Get-over-it!!!!
Mikeru was a poor, unfortunate soul in unlucky circumstances. I don't think many people really hate him. Mikaru on the other hand... well, she's not the same. She was basically clingy and had zero redeeming traits. That's probably why we hate her. Also, she refused to let Kaito leave for Lucia... yeah... In the end, though, I was pretty angry that they gave Mikaru a chance for rebirth and not Mikeru.
Ani Shinozaki um after Kaito lost his memories luchia suffered so much so don’t act like she didn’t, she would always cry thinking of him while mikaru had fun with him, even after knowing luchia and Kaito were in love with each other she kept wanting Kaito to herself, if she was so lonely why did mikaru man up and make friends? Hanon, Lina, and Luchia tried to be friends with her but nope. ;-; ur comment is 2 Years Old so you Probably won’t reply but I just wanted to say that! 😁
I don’t hate her but I don’t care for how she acted and Kaito had lost his memories or blocked them he didn’t hide up Mikaru skirt she acted real rude and mean to Luchia even tho Luchia was try or was being nice and kind to her and she was understanding Mikaru does seem nice but if Kaito is involved things start to plummet cause she always wants him with her and that’s not gonna happen
Yourita Milou I get why you may not like her the only thing or things I don’t care for is that she’s rude or mean to Lucia tries to keep kaito away from lucia and I don’t care for mikaru attitude but I don’t think she is well remember when kaito left the house and she was destroying things her brother begging her to stop or perhaps I’m wrong the wiki did not state anything about her mental health being bad but she has a sickness
I sing this song whenever my heart starts to hurt... Look at those eyes! How can anyone hate these beautiful eyes filled with sadness? If I could, I'd be there for him... Then we both wouldn't have to be alone anymore...
This song is actually a really good example of mōra, the word-organization system used in Japanese. Kinda analogous to syllables, but different. The same tempo is used for the mōra for almost the entirety of the song, and it’s in 4:4, which really emphasizes the fact that the mōra are occurring with the beat. I’ll have to remember this…
@Sayorisai Yes...I actually began to cry when I first heard this song, because the depth of my feeling was so strong. The sadness, the loneliness, the longing...
You know this song really fits me. I understand how Mikeru is feeling very well with my own experience. It sometimes surprise me that it didn't destroy me....
I'm lonely too....... I feel like I have nobody......Sometimes I cry..... I know how Mikeru feels and I don't think he's evil.....I sing this quietly to myself in bed, and cry myself to sleep.... All I want is love.......Beautiful.....
Everyone knows their own sadness. This year hasn't started out to great for me, cried a bunch. I actually woke up from a dream crying, I was all alone and wanted to cry and I did in real life. I always manage to tell myself that it will be better tomorrow, I feel like the only thing I have left is my family.
This is odd... I watched Mermaid Melody (both seasons) three years ago.. And then when I tell my friend about what happened to Mikeru, then I cry? I guess he really did leave an impression on me... I'm off to watch MMPPP hoping my mom won't catch me watching something like that xD
12 people missed the like button. I don't really know why you would not like this song. If you don't like the genre, why are you listening to it? >.> Mikeru has a beautiful voice.
this is such a sad song his eyes...they took my soul and heart... I know he ain't real, but why can't guys really look that nice...or look that soulful? What a shame... I really wish I could jump into some anime or games (namely Zelda!) lol Thanks for posting this
I'm currently watching Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure and I've been wondering where I recognize Mikeru's voice from. It's from Haruka in the Sailor Moon Crystal song "Eternal Eternity"
He reminds me of a Ikaros. Its a creature who is very beautiful, has something like 9 pairs of wings, has a beautiful voice and socks the soul out of young and pretty girls. That the description of them in one of those books I have read a long time ago though.
His voice and his eyes.. they really mirror his sadness and it sorta affects those who listen. It's really touching and sad at the same time. MAKES ME WANNA JUMP INTO THE SCREEN AND GIVE HIM A HUGGGGG~
Beautiful song........he's not evil just misunderstood. I know how he feels........I feel like I have nobody as well.......this song beautiful song but so sad.....
When I watched the anime I almost cried at this song and I usually never cry while watching anime the only time I cried during an anime was when I watched Akame ga kill I hate that anime now because I cried even one month after watching it, I mean why did he die in the end I just realized that i wrote a huge spoiler for the anime
whenever I listen to this I can't help but picture Ryoma Echizen haha oh well, the voice actor is the same though... Junko Minagawa is one of my favorite seiyuu and singer, her voice is so beautiful 😆
I know how Mikeru-Sama feels...i was so alone at my shool. and i still am...I listen to this song everyday. lol. trying to learn and memorize the lyrics. For some reason, it cheers me up. :(
Been there...Look,you may think you're alone,but just try to look around you... You're not completely alone... I don't know if you have friends or not,but life is short,try to be happy and cheerful whenever you can...And believe me,when you won't be alone.... :-)

Yeah, *poor mikeru*
@Kazumi Hauusjs Not just one as far as I know. I think it's the last 3 to 5 episodes that use this song. I'll have to check again.
Pop
It shows the sadness perfectly
exactly. when I hear him sing this song, I feel at ease. like was drown to a really sad yet beautiful song
Haysarosa R I agree with you. This is one of thoses sad songs where you can feel really calm to
You must hear serbian version "mikelova pesma".
@@nenadnajdanovic8590 Istina.
Good
Mikeru is way cooler compared to Mikaru. This song is just beautiful. :)
I found the girl really annoying

Mikeru is just a sad character.
Guy..?

Essentially just a darker version of Britney Spears' "Everytime"...
This tune is pain.
I feel.
I feel so bad for him..he was never taught what happiness was..he was always alone..
At first, i thought he was a woman but he's not. The vampire fooled me too. A.K.A Lady Bat?
na verdade ele é um anjo

I never knew what gender lady bat was up until now
And I can't believe that the character is a male
I think LB is supposed to be ambiguous, kind of a cross (no pun intended) between "visual kei" and "generic bishie". Then again, various dubs have swung one way or the other.
@Anja Jović Italian dub says otherwise, I think. Not arguing about the original, just mentioning something.
I sang this song to heal me when I am sad or crying in make me feel like I am flying up to the sky that is why I like this song
Same here...it's been yrs...I still do it
I know i am late but try listening this song to different language. This one is on Serbian and trust me it still have awesome voice.

remember.
this makes my heart well up with emotions especially sadness and lonliness
so true...
i personally love his voice
The seiyuu really got the emotion down
For some reason, this song always calms me down when I feel anxious
i didnt realize he's this beautiful😭😭😭😭
No matter how much i know that hes a guy i still believe hes better than the girl's one since this has more feelings in it XD
Thank you!

Lol i dont mind and your welcome, his voice while singing it is sooo good i wish i had his voice! XD
When i first watched this, yeah i had too XD but surprisingly its a Male

遥か彼方の 空を照らす
光を目指し 羽ばたくけど
冷たい雨が翼を濡らして
今日も一人
さざ波のように 揺れているよ
心の中の 遠い記憶
今はただ透明な風の中
静かに眠りたい 翼を抱いて
託された運命の 行方探す
ひとひらの舞い散る羽根
いつかはきっと たどり着ける
孤独な心 癒せる場所
見上げる瞳が映し出してる
哀しみのカケラを 拾い集めた
永遠は切なくて 果てしなくて
あこがれてしまいそうで
夢は蜃気楼 密かに
今もどこかで はかなく咲いている
ぴちぴちぴっちの敵キャラ=神レベルの歌唱力

Same.
10 years later I finally find out that Mikeru was a male!! I always thought that he was a female!!! Wow, after all these years...
You never looked at his exposed very flat chest fam xD? If he was female he would had a tiddie outside xD

nostalgia hits hard
It's such a sad yet beautiful song, great job mikeru
僕が小学生の頃に見てたけど、『マーメイドメロディー ぴちぴちピッチ ピュア』は、前作を超えた、この時代最高の神アニメだと僕は思います…………

This song is gorgeous. I love it.
I can totally feel Mikaru's and Mikeru's feelings, glad I'm not alone 😭😭😭☹☹☹
声が正に天使…そしてキャラデザが破茶滅茶ふつくしい…なんて切ない曲なんだ😭😭😭
Literally im in love w his voice… such a sad song😭and the character design is just mmMmmm mamma mia🤌🤌🤌
It's been forever since I've watched it, so I can't say I remember him, but I do remember this song. And I still love it! :)
Anyone else looking back at this beautiful song?

This song is so beautiful and sad, I love Mikeru
every time I hear this song, I start crying uncontrolably for mikeru!
Listening to this song you can hear mikeru's sadness
OMG i hadn't watched season 2 and i know mikeru is the villian, but when i watch this i think he's sooo pure and like an angel. Goshh he's flawless!!!
Beautiful song........he's not evil just misunderstood. I know how he feels........I feel like I have nobody as well.......this song beautiful song but so sad.....
This song is so SAD!! I feel like crying every time i hear it! It is so Beautiful!
This song totally reflects his nature and his sadness....
a couple of weeks ago i saw mermaid princess. Almost feel like see it again! was such a nice anime. well spent hours. period.
When I watched the anime I almost cried at this song and I usually never cry while watching anime the only time I cried during an anime was when I watched Akame ga kill I hate that anime now because I cried even one month after watching it, I mean why did he die in the end
I just realized that i wrote a huge spoiler for the anime
Mikeru was one of my favourite characters, he suffered too much. :(
i really love this song...sometimes i sing it to cheer myself up (even if its a sad song)...it's COOL!!!!
Love this song its stuck in my head
I just now realized that this is essentially just a cover of Britney Spears' "Everytime" I-
Really?
i feel mikeru's sadness..
i feel it too..
Summer 2021 and still listen to this! 😁 Missed pichi pichi pitch
thank you for this video i love singing along to such a beautiful song
I'm From Greece,and without knowing Japanese,I can sing it by heart!!!
@Yourita Milou I could sing miraculous ladybug in 26 languages 😂👌
This is why mermaids and angels are my favorite creatures
i love this song n i cant get it!!!!!!!
it makes my heart sad but its full of feelings of lonliness...its so beautiful....
God, when I listen to this song, it just makes me wanna cry. ;____;
And it take a lot to make me cry! Impressive
whenever I listen to this I can't help but picture Ryoma Echizen haha oh well, the voice actor is the same though... Junko Minagawa is one of my favorite seiyuu and singer, her voice is so beautiful 😆
For me it's Oz Vessalius. Voice actors sure are magic, huh? XD She does sing beautifully.
its a guy...
Unknown Otaku I know that this anime character is a guy what I'm saying is the seiyuu who voiced this character... And it's Junko Minagawa a girl 😊
I know how Mikeru-Sama feels...i was so alone at my shool. and i still am...I listen to this song everyday. lol. trying to learn and memorize the lyrics. For some reason, it cheers me up. :(
Been there...Look,you may think you're alone,but just try to look around you...
You're not completely alone...
I don't know if you have friends or not,but life is short,try to be happy and cheerful whenever you can...And believe me,when you won't be alone.... :-)
MyWinterSnowflake UH dude this is an anime. Like no offense but who u talkin who?
MyWinterSnowflake oh lmfao this was 4 yrs ago nvm
Mikeru was never bad. His true self is good, but has been locked away by that cursed stone inside him, trapping the fragments of his heart.
とっても良い曲。
I really like the songs you do ^^ thanks!!
So desperately do I want the music classes of my school join together and play this song at a concert. Sooooo desperately.
How sad 😟i wanted to love him when he was soo alone singing in misery 😞😞💓💓💓 but happy ending💓💓💓
this song is so beautiful... makes me cry
i was soo hyper but when i heard this song i felt something lifting my spirit up and little by little im feeling drowsy that is really weird ...
So beautiful!
ガチで名曲
I really like mikeru .
This song is probably my favourite.
Poor Mikaru he was always alone. In some ways he is similar to Sara as she was alone.
Siobhian Reid I agree too so I don't hate home but I am pity of him
Sara wasn't alone. She first had a relationship with mitsuki and after that he joined gaito
This villain is the one I had the most pity for..the song is so sad..
I was sooo happy at the ending! Everyone got a happy ending! :)
Even Mikeru!
T-T
