~ Kaito ~Kaito went on a cruise with his parents, who were musicians, and a huge wave came and overturned the ship. Kaito was thrown overboard where he met Luchia, and she took him to shore, upon which she gave him her pink pearl and he was saved. Unfortunately, his parents drowned.
A couple of years later, Luchia comes back to get her pink pearl back and she turns herself human with a little help from her penguin, Hippo, and when she first meetsKaito she thinks he is rude and perverted, but a few episodes later, Luchia falls in love with Kaito, but Kaito doesn't love her back because he's in love with the mermaid who saved his life, but he doesn't know that it's Luchia. Thankfully, he does find out later on in the anime and manga.
Kaito has a twin brother named Gaito, who we see in the last episodes of the series (and in the fourth manga book).
Kaito is a junior high school student, in the same class as Lucia. He is strong, handsome, a phenomenally talented surfer, and widely worshipped by girls of all ages - and he knows it, too. Kaito's ego, however, may be largely a front that hides his feelings of fear and insecurity. In fact, in chapter 17, Kaito even says that surfing is the only thing that lets him truly feel like himself. His parents, both famous musicians, died when he was young, and he has been living on his own since then. Since Lucia appeared in his life, Kaito has been having frightening dreams, a glowing sigil sometimes appears on his forehead, and he occasionally exhibits strange powers. Kaito's greatest fear is that he might not actually be human.
Kaito was saved from drowning by a mermaid seven years ago, and he has spent his life searching for that mermaid. Now that he's seen her again, he has become obsessed with his mysterious mermaid. At the same time, however, Kaito has grown increasingly fond of this cute, sweet girl in his class, named Lucia. Now Kaito also fears that his heart will eventually have to choose between Lucia and his beloved mermaid.As if Kaito didn't have enough problems, between his love life, his mysterious splitting headaches, the bad dreams, and the monsters attacking him, he receives another bad shock in chapter 16. Kaito finds a letter left behind by his parents, written shortly before they both died. The letter reveals that Kaito was never their real son - instead, they found him as a baby, washed up one morning on the beach, wrapped within a mysterious light. Kaito's parents knew from the beginning that he was not a normal child, but they never had the heart to tell him face-to-face.
So who - or what - is Kaito really? Highlight to read the biggest spoilers:
Kaito is actually one of the two twin princes of the Panthalassa clan. His slightly elder twin brother is none other than Gakuto himself. The seal that Aqua Regina placed on the Panthalassa clan would not even allow the birth of twins, for fear that if the two of them combined their powers, the Panthalassa would once again menace the ocean world. Thus, shortly after twin princes were born, a mysterious force flushed baby Kaito out of the castle, up through the ocean, and onto a beach in Japan.

After Kaito comes to terms with his true identity, and with Lucia's little secret, he is finally able to live happily and confidently, the way that he always wanted to. However, Kaito is still plagued by self-doubt; one of the reasons that he continues surfing, as he confesses to Lucia, is that only when he is riding the waves can he really find himself.
Kaito is always afraid that because of his lineage, he will somehow end up hurting the people that he cares about; and indeed, his worst nightmares come true during the second story arc of the manga. A sweet, shy, lonely girl named Michal falls in love with Kaito; Kaito considers her a true friend, but ultimately has to break her heart and tell her that he loves Lucia instead. When Michal is subsequently consumed (literally) by grief, Kaito is almost overwhelmed by pain and guilt. "The sadness of not understand who - what - you really are... The pain... Realizing that you're an inhuman monster that may never be loved by anyone... Michal suffered the same way that I did back then... I'm the one who should have understood her the most, and I'm the one who caused her to suffer the most!" he cries out, in a burst of self-loathing. Ultimately, however, a sound scolding (and a punch in the face) from Rihito gives Kaito the courage to get back on his feet.No matter what happens, Kaito will always be there to protect Lucia. Kaito has many personal and emotional burdens to shoulder, but he knows that he can rely on Lucia for support - and he knows that he has to keep smiling for her sake, too. In the end, nothing is capable of keeping Kaito down. His cocky grin, and the mischevious twinkle in his eyes, still manage to shine through, no matter what sort of ordeals he has to endure.
Kaito's Forms"prince" Kaito
Kaito appears this way, dressed as a prince, when he is pulled into the worlds beneath the ocean surface (first appearance: chapter 06).
Granted, in the image linked above, "prince" Kaito happens to be in mortal peril. ;) But still, it was the best image of his princely attire that I could find.

Kaito's Powers
light
When Kaito is threatened or in danger, a glowing sigil appears on his forehead. This light has the power to repel whatever threatens him. Later, the light begins to appear when Lucia is in danger as well. In chapter 16, Kaito's light even surrounds Lucia and makes her immune to Maria's attack. However, Kaito's light is always accompanied by headaches, which become more and more paralyzing for Kaito, especially as his light increases in power.

healingKaito has the ability to heal his own injuries and illnesses much faster than a normal human could.
underwater breathing
There are instances in the manga when Kaito demonstrates the ability to breathe underwater, most notably during the end of the first story arc, and in chapter 26, when he makes out with Lucia underwater. In chapter 21, Sara tells Lucia, "Kaito cannot die within the ocean," since he is descended from the Panthalassa kings. When Kaito and Lucia first met, Lucia thought that she saved Kaito from drowning, but in chapter 32 of the manga, it is revealed that Kaito actually saved her. Still, the incident nearly killed Kaito, and Lucia still decided to give him her pearl in order to revive his strength anyway.

Magical Items
royal staffRihito inherits a regal, rose-topped rod from his mother, who is of Panthalassa blood. The rod very much resembles the one weilded by Gakuto in the first story arc of the manga. During the climax of the second story arc, Rihito gives the rod to Kaito, and Kaito uses the rod to smash the fossilized remains of the original Michel.
other weaponsIn his "prince" form, Kaito has no actual weapons - although he does manage to valiently weild a convenient candelabra in chapter 20. In some illustrations he is drawn with a sword, although Kaito never gets a sword during the actual storyline of the manga.
