Background

Part of Little Mermaid Series along with Telepathist IQ Saiko, Punky Funky Baby and Suashi no Houkago. Also released in US by Blue Animation, but without subtitles and the censorship was not removed (what little there was of it as most scenes didn't display any genitalia). (Source: AniDB)
