I really like mermaids , they are very rare thing in anime/manga.
I searched all mangas where in title is mentioned "mermaid" or "ningyo". There must to be more with different titles.
I already have "Mermaid's forest" (ningyo no mori).
Maybe anybody know more mangas about them?
thanks in advice

Well, there's Pichi Pichi Pitch, which is a bit childish, but still a mermaid manga.
Petshop of Horrors has a few chapters about mermaids.

The only other title that comes to mind is Princess Mermaid by Mizuno Junko.

Shimizu Reiko's "Tsuki no ko" (Moon Child) is an alternate take on mermaids and Andersen's "The Little Mermaid". Very interesting, but I don't know if you'll be able to find it in other languages than Japanese, really.

The only one that comes to mind is Mermaid Saga by Rumiko Takahashi. Haven't read it though...

Yea, that's basically a retelling of the Little Mermaid (of course a very insane, perverted and disturbing retelling). It's very good and I'd recommend it, but definitally look through it, as it is not your typical manga by any means and is overflowing with Mizuno-weirdness.
