Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch 22

Luchia and the rests' teacher at school is on maternity leave so Hanon fervently prays (with candles on her head?) that her dear Tarou-chan will be the substitute. And he is, so Hanon's overjoyed and wants to throw a welcoming party for him. What a mess that girl is. Falling for the music teacher of all people (...I am a music education major, just btw, lol). Hanon still cracks me up ;) As for Tarou... long ago he saw a mermaid. A sad, crying mermaid that he can't forget, so he wrote a song about her. As he's playing the song on his piano, he sees a mermaid outside. Could it be that same mermaid?

Tarou's still got that on his mind as the party goes on. There's also a girl there that somewhat looks like that mermaid... Hanon (somewhat jealous) finally drags him away to start the barbeque but still.. when that girl leaves he follows her. She is a mermaid since she's carrying a pearl, but she's not the same one that Tarou saw. Just then, one of Gaito's minions, Maria, shows up to cause some trouble. Luchia and the rest seem to have taken care of her, but she uses her ice power to attack, then a warm light comes and melts the ice.. from Kaito? It's pretty clear now that he's not your ordinary surfer guy. He's related to Gaito-sama somehow (no surprise given the resemblence). Gaito's also got this mysterious looking woman by his side.. we can't see her face so we don't really know who she is... but I have an idea.

Just a note - the next episode (23) is the last subbed one. I've got a few random raw episodes from the rest of the first season, but I probably won't be able to write anything about them without spoiling things for y'all. Same with the current Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch Pure episodes. So this'll probably be it for the blogging for now (unless somebody wants me to keep doing it).
