Today’s article will briefly explain why part 1 was such a hit, and about its plotline!
I will not write any plot spoilers from episodes 10~12 ish! (I want you to see for yourself!)

What kind of story is Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury?

A story about girl from Mercury, Suletta Mercury, who attend ASTICASSIA School of Technology!

If I were to describe the whole story in one sentence, it goes like this!

Staged in the future, various industries has expanded into the space creating a huge economic zone there. A girl named Suletta Mercury from Mercury, which became a frontier land, goes to ASTICASSIA School of Technology with her Gundam!

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury’s appeal?

Gundam x school life!
Story’s taste is rather serious and definitely worth watching!

nozaki
When Suletta enters school, she brings Gundam Aerial who she’s spent a long time with and is practically family.

Suletta Mercury

On the day of her entrance, Suletta ends up saving Miorine Rembran who ran from the academy into outer-space and tried to escape to Earth! Miorine-San is the principal’s daughter, and there was a rule that she had to ‘be a bride to academy’s strongest pilot.’

Miorine Rembran

Suletta interrupts the escape without knowing. Miorine-San who is forced to return to the academy goes back to being treated like an ‘object’ by the academy’s strongest pilot, Guell. To put a stop to it, Suletta accepts Guell’s request for a duel! If she loses, she will be expelled from the academy......

Suletta ends up winning the duel! Guell is no longer the strongest pilot, and Miorine-San becomes free...... or not, she ends up being Suletta’s fiancée!?
nozaki/smile
And like that, a non-comical orthodox school life story continues! What the students learn at this pilot academy in space is interesting, and all the characters are also unique, and I like them all!
The girls are all cute, but the guys are also good guys, and they really grow on you~! Especially Guell!!
nozaki
And more than anything, I like that Gundam is incorporated into the main story!
I really enjoy watching how the autocratic vibe of the Academy gradually changes because of Suletta’s arrival!

Why did Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury get so popular?

Because the last episode of the first half was just too shocking......!!

nozaki
Well, it was already really good to begin with...... But the 12th Episode had a way too extreme scenario development, and many viewers were shaken up.
Viewers couldn’t help but to think This really is a Gundam show. This is amazing, and after seeing the development, there are still months until the sequel broadcast......

So if you haven’t seen Part 1 yet, you are lucky!!

If you start watching Part 1 now, then you can watch its sequel about 2 weeks from now!

We, who watched Part 1 Episode real-time, had to wait for 3 months!!

Overall Review:
The story is so solid so it’s very enjoyable as a whole work! Gundam is part of it, but you can understand without prior knowledge or review so it’s ok!

nozaki
And so in my opinion, I consider this a Gundam show that you can enjoy without knowing Gundam!
The main story has mystery, friendship, battles, heartful scenes, and engaging developments! As you can see, it has multiple aspects that will make you enjoy it! It also takes advantage of the benefits of original anime, and I promise that this will become your weekly treat to look forward to!
nozaki
And so, if you haven’t seen Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury!! Checkout the first 12 episodes before the sequel goes on air on 4/9!
It’s SO good, so I recommend watching it as a marathon! I bet discussions and fan art will be all over the world once the second half starts, so don’t be late to catch this big wave!!
nozaki/smile
Alrighty, that’s about it for now! I’ll see you in the next article!
Bye~!
