(Xuffie places down the X Crystal, ready to start the recap. An interface shone out of it)
Xuffie: Xuffie's log. Week 3. Nagisa invited us to his camping trip, and Lucia invited her friend Zoe. As we soon found out, Zoe is actually Lucia's successor. Also, the crystal idol forme first got unlocked that day as well. And Masahiro knows Rina's identity. Now the question is: does Rina know Masahiro's role in her life?
(The screen faded to black)
Long ago, there was a mermaid princess named Aina Awami. Aina loved a human named Tajiro Hamasaki. One stormy night, Aina and Tajiro were on a boat. "Isn't it great, Aina?" said Tajiro. "Yeah, it is." said Aina. Just then, a wave hit the boat and Tajiro fell. Aina jumped into the water, transforming into a mermaid, to save him. Tajiro woke up. "A mermaid?" he said, "Who are you?" Aina cried. "It's me… Aina" she said. "Aina…" Aina started glowing and fading. "I should get you to safety." she said. She lit a candle and guided Tajiro into a cave. Aina stopped glowing. "I stopped turning into bubbles." she noted. Just then, Aqua Corona, the sea goddess of the time, appeared. "Aqua Corona!" said Aina. "To save someone you love at the cost of your own life, you really do love him." said Aqua Corona, "So I stopped you from turning into bubbles" "I wish I could be a merperson." said Tajiro. "Very well." said Aqua Corona. She split the green pearl in half and gave each half to Aina and Tajiro. "Now you can turn into a merman as long as both these halves are in water." said Aqua Corona. "Maybe our son can fall in love with a mermaid princess." said Aina. "All your descendants will fall in love with the Green Pearl Mermaid Princess" said Aqua Corona.
Intro
The mermaid princesses were in the park talking about stuff. Rina wasn't having much of a good time, she was rather desperate. "I really have to pee!" she thought as she clenched her crotch, "I can't just leave, they might worry about me. What am I going to do?" "Rina, you've been fidgeting for the past hour" said Karen, "Can you tell us what's wrong?" Rina shook her head. Just then, Seira shouted, "I have to pee!" "I-Is it okay if I take her there?" said Rina. "Sure, Rina" said Noel. Rina and Seira left. "Does anyone else need to pee?" said Karen. Lucia nodded. "Me too!" said Hanon. "Yeah." said Coco. The three of them left. "Well, seeing as they will be there for quite a while, I might as well pee in the bush." said Noel. "I wish I could be able to pee standing up like you." said Karen. "You're not worried about the viewers?" said Noel (Relieves herself). "Nope!" said Karen, "It will feel good, and that's what matters" "Well, for now, I'm going to the bathroom." She turned to the viewers. "Now don't follow me, you perverted camera." Just then, Masahiro appeared. "Masahiro!" said Karen. "Where's Rina?" said Masahiro. "She's going pee." said Seira, who just came back from her potty break. "What do you need her for?" said Noel. "I have to tell her something." said Masahiro. "We can wait outside the bathroom." said Karen. "Okay." said Masahiro.
Episode 4: Dual flowers blooming! The love of a joyful pearl. Expect quirky klutz
Rina had just finished emptying herself and was walking out of the toilets when she saw Masahiro. "Masahiro!" she said. "Rina, I have to tell you something." said Masahiro. Rina just looked at him. "Meet me at the beach at 8 o'clock." said Masahiro. Rina blushed. "Is he asking me on a date?" she thought. "If you want to think about it that way, then yeah" said Masahiro. "How did you know what I was thinking?" said Rina. "You know" said Masahiro. Rina was silent. "You don't know?" said Masahiro. Rina nodded. "Meet me at the beach and I'll tell you." said Masahiro. He left. "So, he wants to go on a date with you." said Karen. "Why? Are you jealous?" said Rina. Karen stopped. "A little bit" she said. "What am I supposed to do?" said Rina, "What am I supposed to say to him?" "Still worried about Masahiro finding out your identity?" said Karen. Rina nodded. "It's more about what happens when I leave him" she said. "Listen, in some alternate universe, Subaru found out my identity as a mermaid princess." said Karen. "That did not help." said Rina. "What I'm saying is, there's a chance." said Karen. "So we could be together even if we can't physically?" asked Rina. "Maybe" said Karen, "Just go on that date" "Right!"
At 8pm, Rina walked onto the beach. She didn't see Masahiro. "He's not here yet." she said, "Oh well, I'll just go swim." She checked if nobody is watching and ran into the water. Only to find out that she didn't turn into a mermaid. "Weird." she said. Suddenly, she turned into a mermaid. "What the?" Rina saw someone. It was a merman with a green tail. "Uh… hello?" said Rina, "My name is Rina. What's yours?" "You already know my name" said the merman, who Rina didn't know was Masahiro. Rina was utterly confused. "So, wanna swim with me?" said Masahiro. "No, sorry. I already have a date" said Rina. "You have a date somewhere else?" said Masahiro, "Why didn't you tell me?" "Why would I tell you?" said Rina, "We only just met!" Masahiro stopped. "Why did she say that? Could she have lost her memory?" said Masahiro, "It can't be, she knows her name! She probably doesn't know." Rina heard him through telepathy. "Have we met before?" she thought, "What is it that I don't know?" "Well, I'll be leaving" said Rina. She left. When she got back on land, she saw Masahiro in human form. "So Masahiro, what is it that you want to talk about?" said Rina. Masahiro started crying. "I thought you knew!" said Masahiro. He left. "Wait!" said Rina. Rina thought about the merman she met. "Why am I thinking about him?" she thought.
Later at the Pearl Piari, "A merman?" said Noel. "Yeah, he said I met him before." said Rina, "And when I saw Masahiro, he was crying" Zoe thought about it. "Wait, did this merman have a green tail." "Yeah, I figured he was from my kingdom" said Rina. "Do you think that merman is Masahiro?" communicated Zoe to Lucia. "Yeah, I think so." replied Lucia. "Where did you get that deduction from?" interrupted Karen. "We should really block our thoughts from others." noted Zoe. "I agree." agreed Lucia. "You should apologize to him." said Lucia. "Yeah, they might be the same person." said Karen. "There's no way" said Rina. Meru thought about it. "Have you heard of the legend of the Awami cave?" said Meru. "Yeah. I've been there before" said Rina. "Have you ever thought what happened to the mermaid?" said Meru. "What are you getting at?" said Rina. "Masahiro has been visiting the Awami Cave ever since you turned thirteen." said Xuffie. "You're saying that maybe he has some kind of connection with it?" said Rina. "Yeah." said Zoe. "You're right. I should" said Rina. She left. "What were you talking about when you said that Masahiro and that merman are the same?" said Coco. "I guess it's time you learned the connection between the Awami Cave and Masahiro." said Xuffie.
Later, Masahiro was at the Hamasaki Residence. He entered it and was greeted by his mother, Merina. Note that Merina is the former Green Pearl Mermaid Princess. "Oh, hello!" said Merina. "Mother, can I talk to you for a second?" said Masahiro. "Sure." said Merina. "When did you realize that my father was your prince?" said Masahiro. "I came up to the surface world with the intent of finding him." said Merina, "It wasn't after a week we met when I realized he was the one." "You're lucky" said Masahiro. "Is this about Rina?" said Merina. "Yeah, she's the Green Pearl Princess" said Masahiro, "But she doesn't know about the Hamasaki line." "Is she that stupid?" said Merina, "What happened at her coming of age ceremony?" "I should go ask her." said Masahiro. At that moment, the doorbell rang. "I'll go get it." said Masahiro. He opened the front door and saw Rina. "Oh, hey Rina." said Masahiro, "Me and my mom were just talking about you." "Masahiro, can I ask you something?" said Rina. "I have something to ask you too." said Masahiro. ["What do you have to to do with the Awami Cave?" "What made you not know about me at your coming of age ceremony?"] "If only you listened." said Masahiro. "Well I was too worried about Gaito!" said Rina. Rina realized her non-mistake. Masahiro sighed. "Just come in" he said.
Eyecatch: Masahiro
"So, as you know, or as you didn't know, I'm a descendant of the mermaid of the legend." said Masahiro. "Yeah, that could explain why" said Rina. "They, Aina and Tajiro, had a son who fell in love with the next Green Pearl Princess, Karina." said Masahiro. "Aina was a mermaid princess?" said Rina. "Yeah." said Masahiro. "It's weird that all the Green Pearl Mermaid Princesses have names ending with "ina"." said Rina. "Like yours." said Masahiro. "Like mine?" said Rina. "And my mother's" said Masahiro. "Well, I am a princess to you." said Rina, telling what is technically the truth. "I know you are" said Masahiro, also telling the truth. "So 75% of your blood is supernatural." said Rina. "Not just 75%" said Masahiro. "What?" said Rina. "Karina's son also fell in love with a Mermaid Princess" said Masahiro. "If the pattern kept on going, then at the 7th generation, more than 99% of the descendant's blood is supernatural." said Rina. "And it keeps on going." said Masahiro. Rina thought about it. "I know what you're thinking. And yes, I know you're a mermaid princess" said Masahiro. "All this time, I could've told you?" said Rina. "Yes, Rina-chan." said Masahiro, "It wasn't you who told me, it was Xuffie." "That's what you were talking about on the roof the other day." said Rina. "Not quite." said Masahiro, "We were talking about the chance of finding the Green Pearl. It was only last week when Aqua Regina halved the green pearl to contain both our souls." "We share a pearl." said Rina. "Just like Aina and Tajiro, and mother and father" said Masahiro. "I should mention another thing." he added, "That merman you saw at the beach, that was me" "It was?" "Yeah"
Meanwhile, "So now Masahiro knows Rina's identity as a mermaid princess?" said Yoshino. "Yeah." said Xuffie. "Wow! I wish I was able to visit the Awami Cave" said Coco. "Well the cave opens at every May 10th." said Xuffie. "But it's January now" said Coco. "I've been to the cave with Subaru last year." said Karen, "They say that if you write you and your lover's names on a candle and let the candle burn inside the cave, it will grant mutual love!" "That's so cool!" said Zoe, "I want to go there, even though I don't have anyone in mind." "What about you, Xuffie?" said Lucia. "Well, like I said three episodes ago, I don't have a boyfriend yet." said Xuffie. "Well, I think Daichi is kind of cute" said Emi. "Good job, writer. Shipping the background character with the other background character" said Karen. "Wait, what were we talking about initially?" said Seira.
Rina and Masahiro were at the Awami Cave. "Okay, why are we here?" asked Rina. "I guess it's time to do what I should've done." said Masahiro. He got out a green candle with his name written on it. He etched Rina's name onto it. "You're going to put the candle there." said Rina. "Yes." said Masahiro, "Let's do it together." They jumped into the water and swam into the cave. Most of the areas where candles are placed are completely submerged, but there are some places which are still above the tide. "It seems like we could still put our candle here" said Rina. They placed the candle and lit it. "Let's stay here." said Masahiro. "Yeah." said Rina. They sat while they watched the candle burn. "Hey, remember the plasma TV you got me for my birthday last year?" said Rina. "I could tell you really wanted one." said Masahiro. "Yeah. I got bored of watching the same channel over and over." said Rina. She stopped. "What's wrong? Gotta pee?" said Masahiro. Rina nodded. "Just go outside the cave. I won't look" said Masahiro. Rina quickly left the cave to pee. "I'm slightly less shy about my needs now." said Rina. "I'm glad that you are." said Masahiro. An hour has passed and they were still at the cave. "Hey Masahiro." said Rina. "Yes." said Masahiro. "When we have our child, I want to name him Michio" said Rina. "That's a nice name" said Masahiro. They watched the last of their candle burn and the spirits of Aina and Tajiro appeared. "Rina Touin, soon to be Rina Hamasaki." said Aina. "You're Aina!" said Rina. "Yes. I am." said Aina, "Not many people stay at the cave to watch their candle burn." "In fact, only the Hamasaki bloodline has the will to watch the entire candle burn." said Tajiro. "Here, take this." said Aina. She made an engagement ring out of the wax of the candle, and the rock of the cave. "Thank you" said Rina. "You're welcome" said Aina. She and Tajiro disappeared. "We should get back now" said Masahiro. "Yeah, we should."
Masahiro and Rina were riding the motorcycle back to the Pearl Piari. Just then, a blinding light appeared. It was Kiha and Lanhua! "Look at the two lovebirds" said Kiha. "Think they can beat us?" said Lanhua. "Who are you and what do you want from us?" said Masahiro. "Oh, you haven't met me?" said Kiha. "He looks just like me. What does he want?" thought Masahiro. Kiha took out a sharp boomerang and threw it at Rina. "Rina-chan! Watch out!" said Masahiro. He pushed Rina away from the boomerang. "That doesn't stop us from destroying you" said Lanhua. "Throwing a sharp blade at a girl is unforgivable!" said Masahiro. "What are you gonna do, punch me?" said Kiha. Masahiro punched him. "Don't you dare hurt Kiha-sama!" said Lanhua. She threw her sensu at Masahiro. Rina caught the fan. "Give that back!" said Lanhua. "If you say so" said Rina. She threw the fan like a boomerang and it hit Lanhua on the back of the head. Kiha tried to punch Masahiro back but Masahiro pushed him before he could attack. Then Lanhua tried to use her fan as a blade, but Rina kicked her. "Ouch! That hurts!" said Lanhua. Kiha tried to get his K Destroyer, but saw that Rina had it. "Looking for this?" she taunted. Kiha teleported behind Rina and punched her. He grabbed the K Destroyer and was about to turn it on until Masahiro punched him. The punch sent the K Destroyer flying. Lanhua caught it. "Kiha-sama! I got it!" she said. "No you don't!" said Rina. She pushed her over the ledge. Kiha made a portal to retrieve Lanhua. "Lanhua-chan, are you alright?" said Kiha. "I'm fine" said Lanhua. "They did enough damage to us already." said Kiha. "I'll incapacitate them!" said Lanhua. "No you won't!" said Rina, throwing her off the ledge. "You see, Masahiro, Lanhua has a song that can drain energy from us." said Rina. "Well done, Rina. You may be strong, but compared to us, you're nothing." said Kiha, "Mermaid Princesses are powered by love, something you will never have!" Lanhua appeared. "Face it, you never truly felt love" she said. Rina stopped, then looked at them. "Until now, that is" she said. "Let's transform" said Masahiro. "Green Pearl Voice!" Both Rina and Masahiro said that phrase to transform. Masahiro's idol forme has a green dress shirt and a long green cape. He also had a green bandanna. "You idiots. Remember episode one?" said Kiha, "That forme isn't strong enough to defeat us" "I don't know what you mean by "Episode one", but we've weakened both of you enough already." said Rina, "Now it's time to show you that I really can love" "Yeah, Kiha." said Masahiro, "Alone, we are weak, but together, we are strong!" "Now let's sing!" said Rina. "Yeah! Let's do it!" said Masahiro. "Pichi Pichi Voice Live Start!"

Credits
Rina entered the Pearl Piari. "Rina! Where have you been?" said Lucia. "I was with Masahiro" said Rina. "Yeah I know that." said Hanon, "What took you so long?" "While he was taking me back, we had an encounter with Kiha and Lanhua." said Rina. "But you and Masahiro were able to defeat them, right?" said Xuffie. "Yeah!" said Rina. Pause. "Also, I lost my virginity" said Rina. "Wait what?!" said Hanon before the screen cut to black.
