Mermaid Saga

In the early 2000s, Egmont Ehapa brought Rumiko Takahashi's haunting Mermaid Saga to German readers across four issues. This dark fantasy series, originally serialized in Japan, explores immortality's curse through Yuta, a centuries-old man searching for a cure after eating mermaid flesh. Known for its eerie atmosphere and tragic romance, the collection stands as a stark, mature counterpoint to Takahashi's more famous comedic works.
