History
Edit
He is destined to marry Natsumi Hinata, whom he claims to be his princess. Growing up with no memories of his childhood, family, home, nor race, he and Maru as his servant develops a second childhood, filled with loneliness and his very traumatic past.
StoryEdit
In the second movie, he, together with his counterpart Maru, defeated a Kiruru that tried to destroy a ship then he begins humming beautifully for saving the ship and he appears in the sky (as a shadow figure) along with Maru and they flew down, heading back to the sea. He appeared as a "sea fairy" in a ball of light.
He watched Natsumi through the "UMA", which Momoka brought to Fuyuki. Later, sea creatures brought Natsumi to Meru. He appears to have a stingray-like invention as he tells Natsumi not to worry, so she rides with him peacefully. He appears to be a bit childish as in Natsumi's dream world, he played a lot. He, and Maru played together in the shopping mall but then suddenly Maru is wasn't there in the dark room as Meru began to search for her but Maru is just in the other side from the dark area. Maru is worried that her prince is missing as Natsumi searches as well. Meru is wailing quietly all alone in the elevator as Natsumi found him and teases him that he doesn't know how to open the door. Meru flew quickly to Natsumi and hugging her while crying which reminding Natsumi who is also lost in the past, leaving Maru shocked seeing her prince crying like an innocent child and blaming her that it was her fault, but its not true, however.
After traveling with Natsumi in the deep sea, he sang to Natsumi with a lullaby-like melody, prove that Meru had his parents before, but its still unknown, it is also revealed that nobody cares about him, then used the Mare Ball, transforming into a more human shape and hypnotizing her.
When Maru opened the door to him and Natsumi, he had grown immense, with Natsumi held hostage to his body. He used the Mare Ball and threatened to attack Keroro and Fuyuki, when Mois saved them by attacking the attack. Keroro asked Fuyuki to throw him into the cystal before it closes, which was successful. But, it disturbed Meru's process, and he turned even larger, controlled by the Mare Ball. Keroro was seen on his shoulder.
When Momoka, in Keroro robot, was going to attack, he attacked back, which was protected by Mois again. But, the beams went into all directions, flooding the entire place since he broke the barriers. When Maru asked him to release Natsumi, he refused, and destroyed the shopping mall, which shook Natsumi to a bit of her senses.
Meru screams and yells in pain as he can't stop growing larger and shapeless like a purple blob, after Maru come to rescue her prince, Meru is soon became a portal and Maru was sucked in that leads to the empty dimension filled with darkness. Natsumi and Keroro came to rescue the two before it exploded according to Kururu while Mois and Fuyuki will hold the rope to prevent Natsumi and Keroro getting sucked in too. Natsumi finally found the two, as they were still floating in the dimension, unconscious. Meru awakes and sees Natsumi as the Mare Ball glows and pulls them out of the hole. Meru wants Natsumi to let him go to commit suicide but she refuses while Maru sheds tears saying Natsumi's name.
After the rescue, Natsumi wishes to go back to Aki as she promised before then suddenly she is inside her house, which is floating out of the ocean. Natsumi is happy to arrive back in the surface and meets her friends and thanking them. Meru and Maru gain consciousness and Meru is thanking Natsumi for everything. Natsumi says that she is no longer the "Princess", so she transfers her tiara and title to Maru, becoming the new princess. He and Maru blushed at each other and they fall in love as they go back to Maron. In the credits, the two royalties were amazed of seeing Maron as their original home, and ready for their marriage.
Other mediaEdit
In Volume 20, he has a Kiruru and use it as his servant and a superweapon. The transformed Meru resembles a Kiruru reference to the movie that he turn into a ferocious monster.
AppearanceEdit
Meru is dark-blue colored. Unlike Keronians, He wears dark blue helmet with short ear-like crests and a bigger crest on his head. His symbol is a yellow Maron star on his forehead and on his belly. He has dorsal-like fins attached on his wrists and limbs and his eyes are triangular and its colored bright green and wearing a yellow collar on his neck.
In the manga, Meru's Kiruru form has an X mark replacing his Maron emblem on his belly while on his forehead remains the same like his original form. His arms and legs are more stone-like and his dorsal fins are more pointed, mutated, and carved. He still wears his helmet on this form with a Kiruru-like mouth and his eyes are similar to Kirurus with random writings and lines all over his body.
PersonalityEdit
Meru is somewhat very strict, childish, and sometimes a bit sarcastic, and has a spoiled brat attitude towards Maru for troubling him, blaming her for distracting his talk, and thinking Maru that it was her fault for losing him (but Meru is the one who made Maru lose him) in the shopping mall during the chase for fun. Meru is seen snooty and mean at first when he confronts Keroro, calling him rude and boring. Meru is also very kind, calm, and proud towards his princess-to-be, Natsumi.
