It's not like this is a bad thing, but it certainly helped making the anime more child-friendly by leaving out parts like this.Īnother thing which clearly showed the older targetted audience in the manga was the dialogue. So needless to say, there are many drawings of the girls naked (with parts covered of course) using a towel. In the manga, they often show how the girls actually wipe off the water with towels and turn parts of their body humanly that way. For example: in the anime, when the mermaids were bathing, they would never show you how they turned back into humans after getting out. In which aspect is the manga more mature then? Of course, it has its typical Japanese favorite romantic moments thrown in, but the fact that the anime had such a big succes in Italy with children says enough. Let's say I'd compare it to Winx Club which I used to watch around that time as well. I was 12 years old when I started watching the anime and looking back at it now, it's kind of childish and happy/romantic feeling. It's also safe to say that the manga is quite more mature than the anime. It felt like many parts were missing and the story jumped to different plots, but that could also be because pretty much all manga reader sites have listed the chapters in a weird way which concluded in me reading the wrong follow-up chapters sometimes (please fix this oh my god it was so confusing). like the first part of the manga series (The Gackto arc) was so rushed compared to the anime. The anime is much more developed with its 50 episodes per season. Mostly, when having watched an anime and being curious for the manga, you expect a broader approach to the story with much more content. This was something that kind of really surprised me. I was curious for the "original" story of the anime, wondering if it was any different.
