Meroune Lorelei/Relationship

The following is a description of Meroune Lorelei's relationships and interactions with other characters in Monster Musume: Everyday Life with Monster Girls.

Kimihito Kurusu
Mero first meets Kimihito after he saves her after Mero looses control of her wheelchair going down a hill. She later joins the Kurusu household and had a strong desire to become Kimihito's mistress and to be in a tragic relationship with him. Her will to have a tragic relationship also causes Kimihito to almost drown. However, after seeing Kimihito's closeness with Miia during a double date and his interactions with the other girls, she begins to have second thoughts. After the events at the Mermaid Kingdom where she nearly experiences a tragic love but is then rescued by Kimihito, Mero ditches the idea of being Kimihito's mistress and wants to be his wife instead. She still prefers a tragic love setup, except without her being the side girl.

Kuroko Smith
Mero respected the Interspecies Exchange Coordinator Smith as an authority figure as well as treating her in a formal, polite, and kind way like she would to anyone else. Initially, only Smith knew Mero's royal social status.

Kasegi
Mero initially felt uncomfortable when Kasegi was filming when her top was slipping. After Suu blew Kasegi's cover, Mero along with Miia and Centorea became angry towards Kasegi. Mero was going to attack Kasegi with a large sea shell but Kimihito attacked the con man instead.

Ren Kunanzuki
Mero was kind to lend some of her clothes to Ren Kunanzuki whose school uniform was stained from Miia's food. However, Ren insulted Mero's clothing as "embarrassing".

Miia
In the beginning, Mero wanted nothing more than to be Kimihito's mistress, so she set her sights on making Miia his wife so she could satisfy her desire for a tragic romance. However, after observing Kimihito and Miia share an intimate moment during their double date, she started to doubt her desire for a tragic romance with her as a mistress. Following the events of the Mermaid Kingdom, she announces that she wants to be his wife and to make Miia the mistress instead.

Papi
She doesn't seem to interact with Papi that much but shows respect to her. Like with the other Monster Girls, Papi is rather fond of Mero and would listen to her during the mermaid's study sessions.

Centorea Shianus
Mero initially thought Centorea to be the master's lover throwing the centaur off guard. Mero respected Centorea's loyalty and devotion as a knight to their master especially when she unwittingly projected her royal aura causing the centaur to think that she was standing before royalty.

Suu
She doesn't seem to interact with her much but does seem to respect her.

Rachnera Arachnera
She seems to respect her but not much is known as they never interact with each other. She secretly likes the feeling of being tied up by her.

Lala
They didn't seem to like each other at first but later respected each other after the explanation by Ms. Smith.

Octo
They became friends and worked together to help Octo.

Meroune's Mother
They are mother and daughter, but their relationship with each other is not the best. The Mermaid queen often behaves very decisively towards her daughter and decides what is good for her, often without listening to Mero's opinion. In the course of her intrigues, the queen forced Mero to return to the Mermaid kingdom, ignoring her daughter being separated from Kimihito. She also believes that the "happy end culture" of the humans has tainted Mero too much, since she no longer wants love tragedies. However, Mero's mother genuinely loves her daughter and eventually gave up on her selfish plan to end the Exchange Program for her people only to have herself the "perfect tragic romance" after it put Mero into danger.

However, Mero's mother still remains a strong influence on her daughter's life and does "what is best" for her regardless of her daughter's opinion. So she buys the new wheelchair for Mero in Chapter 49 at the EXPO although Mero didn't want it or rebuilds Kimihito's house without his consent as seen in Chapter 45 to make additional underground rooms for Mero. In Chapter 43, she also refuses to let Mero do a normal job in Tokyo because it "doesn't befit a princess". According to Monster Musume: Monster Girls on the Job!, Mero is used to being overruled by her mother most of the time, forcing her to stand aside and watch the other household girls support Kimihito in a way she is unable to.
