Genuinely I hope Mermaze Mermaidz finally gets its time to shine soon
I know many people are still upset from what happened with Mermaid High and even blaming Mermaze for their downfall... but the series has nothing in common except mermaids. Based on the show, I don't think the Mermaze girls are even teenagers (Maybe young adults at the least, can't find any clarification so don't take that as fact)
The main cast are generally pretty lovable and at 13 episodes (as of right now) going back and forth rewatching episodes and listening to the music they have, the writers and designers show a clear vision of what they want to do with this series and have it already planned out pretty well; Which IMO is kind of nice considering Rainbow High has been kind of messy with their series in terms of writing (and pacing)
Some of it has already felt a little predictable (Like our antagonist, Morra, being Orra's sister) but is that truly such a bad thing? We just got an episode about her specifically, and I found enjoyment from the way the show slowly built up her importance to the plot and grabbing my attention. I know this is still children's media, but these types of things are fun!
Personally it's made me kind of sad to see how little people seem to talk about Mermaze, its beginning did seem slow I will admit but it's something well worth it. I've started to see the series make some waves (heh) online and folks taking notice, but I hope it picks up even more! The main five mermaids are quite cute and I'd love to see them stick around for awhile longer, I ADORE Kishiko and Harmonique especially💜
Guess to wrap this up, if you like fun mermaid shows but aren't really into school setting shows (or just want something new that isn't school setting) check out Mermaze Mermaidz! I might even talk about some of the connections that are becoming more clear as the series continues :D
