Lu Over the Wall
Kai Ashimoto (足元カイ, Ashimoto Kai) is a lonely and pessimistic middle school student living in Hinashi Town (日無町, Hinashi-chō). His grandfather is an umbrella maker. His rock band, "SEIRÈN", was formed by his friends, Kunio (国夫) and Yūho (遊歩). One day, Kai explores Merfolk Island (人魚島, Ningyojima) and meets Lu (ルー, Rū), the ningyo girl. The music beat allows her fish fin to transform into a pair of human legs. When Kai reveals the secret of the merfolk to the townspeople, the music makes them dance around town. Despite Kai's selfishness, the townspeople make Lu a celebrity.
