Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury

had me on the edge of my seat. this was intense (but in a good way)

not really a fan of gundam since i don't know much about it, but this show is so cool and makes me want to know more. thank you yuri gods

Witch from Mercury reaches its season finally with a traumatizing chaos. With the terrorist attack on the way, how can everyone survives? We will they have to fight? Will Suletta have to fight with Aerial? But even more important, can they do it when it is not more school duels anymore and actual lives are on the line?

That was unexpected. I really like how the ending turned out. I should rewatch the whole series in a lense where Suletta is more akin to Gon (HxH) than the usual shy protagonist. I think this last epiosde really was eye opening for her character, especially how quick she bounce back. Other notable thing was definitely what happened with Guel. To be honest, I was shock they let it end here, but it's the perfect hook for the next season tho!

Solid episode for finishing the season. In certain way it can mean the end of a generation and the beginning of a new one. Since a second season was pretty much confirmed back then, the episode has a lot of "we will talk about it later" moments, that are mysterious indeed.

Modern FEMALE GUNDAM MC !!!!

Plant Quetta, the grand stand of the season finally. What should be just a simple trip to retrieve Aerial turns around to something much darker when the plans of the Jeturk and Shaddiq starts to unveil. Finding themselves caught in such a conspiracy, what can Miorine and Suletta do escape such predicament?

As Witch from Mercury approaches its season finale, tension rises up. Plans are being made and movement, that was once in the shadows starts to come forward, all converging into a single point. Meanwhile, Gundam-ARM continues its development of medical tech, but while the company gets busier and busier, it could easily affect the people involved and their relationships.

We continued from the previous episode and see the fall out of Suletta's and Miorine's little misunderstanding. I feel like it's a bit much, maybe because they have to rushed it, but I feel the escalation skipped some steps. But on the other hand, I like how the movement behind the scene finally rearing it's head to the main conflict. I hope that the next episode could tied it up nicely though.

The fight for the Gundams never stop, with different parties having their eyes set on Aerial for their own shady reasons, Suletta and Miorine can’t seem to be able to catch a break. Now with the future of the new company in jeopardy, what can they do to protect their future and Aerial from harm?

Gund-ARM, Miorine’s new company. Even if created at the spur of the moment as a way to help Suletta, now she has a huge responsibility. With Gundams being known as cursed machines, is there anyway for her company to prosper? Or rather, what are really Gundams? Why they were made and why are they perceived as such danger?

An aftermath episode from the previous one. We get to see the business grow a tiny bit, and how Suletta and Miorine handling it, very differently at that. I like how the writers make sure we're up to date with everything that goes behind the scene too, which is nice. There's also alliances made and broken, all according to their wants and needs. I feel like this episode is brewing something for the last two episode after this!

Overall an enjoyable episode despite me having some tidbits I dislike about it. I really like what they did with Guel, despite how minor it is. The scene between Shaddiq and Miorine really revealed his characters, maybe even more than Suletta ever did, which mean the writer can write well when they wanted to. They wrote Shaddiq in such a subtle, but clear way that his character shone here, especially on the latter half. The battle feels more fluid than before, and there's less cut too, which makes it a bit clearer, even better since this is a team battle. I feel like the production slowly improving.

The effect of the previous episode is in full throttle this episode as we see our character build the business that was aceepted before. The level of business they're talking in is very basic, so nothing notable and it can be passed. The character writing is also meh, nothing really notable, even the episode before Miorine seemed to be stronger than this. I feel like this is a build up and maybe a somewhat introduction to Shaddiq, the last of the three families we don't really know prior to this.

Is this how it feels to see someone trying to write about business without knowing how business works? The whole she-bang that Miorine presented shouldn't work, but it did, so I let it slide. But there's so much things that happened in this episode that my scepticism slowly builds up. Again, if they had invested more time with Miorine's work from prior episode it might've worked, but they did it in 5 minutes. I hope the writing will improve in the next episode.

I think this is by far the best episode of this series, with Suletta that doesn't stutter too, as a bonus! Elan's story really was a highlight, even if it's more rushed than what I would've liked. But this also bring up the question of what Aerial even is, especially with what Elan saw at the end of the battle. I like how we got character development and also deeper mystery too! Great episode!

T, t, t, t, this is h, h, h, how Suletta's Dialogue is, is, is, written, probably. No, Suletta's stuttering isn't someone who suffer from speech disorder, her dialogue is just badly written and/or the direction given to her VA is horrid. Beside my complain about Suletta, I have to complain about Guel being everyone's punching bag, despite his previous claim to be a great duelist. The writing is getting atrocious, especially with what they did with Elan, which supposed to be an interesting bit, but the characterization feels rushed and unclear. I hope the writers to pick it back up, please.

I'm sorry, but I have to say this first and foremost, that Suletta's stuttering really is getting on my nerves, especially when she's being surrounded by stronger characters, like Chuchu and Miorine. And finding out Suletta shared the same VA as Fern was even more surprising, this means the director is at fault. Beside that, this episode doesn't really add anything yet to the story except to introduce us to Chuchu and some of the racism in this series. A meh episode, I'll try switching to Eng Dub next.

Honestly, I wanted to praise the animation, since the art is clear, and the SFX is really great, but the animation itself is really off. The quick cuts in the battle scene made it a bit dizzying compared to one seemless scene. I think they did the human animation better than the mecha, which is saying something coming from a gundam anime. But the writting is good, a typical battle scene with twists, which is fun. (Miorine MVP!) Overall a good epiosde.

I come into this anime preparing to like Suletta, as I always has a soft spot for shy, nervous girls, but ended up liking the spunky Miorine. Miorine is written really well, as we know how stubborn she is (Which in turn also gave us a glimpse at how stubborn her father might also be.) I also want to see Nika's character more, as the implicit racism intrigued me. The politics seemed to also slowly rose to becoming more serious too!
