Immediate thought while watching the opening of Witch From Mercury episode 22:
I wonder if this is a metaphor for how lack of oversight into corporate dealings will eventually lead to them becoming untouchable monoliths, where oversight is pointless because they can either absorb losses or just overrule them.
Update: having now watched episode 23, I can now say that it isn’t.
If only because a new, bigger metaphor came along.

It is kinda surreal to realise that part of Guel’s whole billing as an ace pilot is him surviving fights he really shouldn’t. Whether he’s against professional pilots, outnumbered, outclassed or facing an absolute combat monster, he always manages to pull through and live through his experiences.
It’s kinda nice to see Guel’s identity as an ace divorced from him just shooting down a bunch of enemies.
Plus, I suppose that this means that the moment he actually gets a properly good ms, he’ll probably do really well in fights.
Soooooooo………. The Witch from Mercury finale dropped today.
I’m gonna be honest I was fully expecting a 50-ep lot here.
Like I don’t think it ended badly or anything, I was just expecting more.

Oh! I do just want to call out dead quick - Ericht is in the little red iceman, and they state that Suletta moved “them” out of the Gundam. Assuming that they don’t mean it in a “we are legion, the one who is many” way, this implies that Elan 4 has been moved to the little blue iceman.
I’m seeing a lot of takes about Witch From Mercury’s ending (specifically about it feeling rushed since we only got 25 episodes), so I’m just gonna throw my two cents in now, maybe do a proper analysis of the actual ending at one point.
I quite like the ending of Witch From Mercury. I’ll admit I expected to get more out of it, but what we got was really good.
But the whole line about “the execs didn’t have faith in it, that’s why it’s only 25 eps” I’m seeing……. I’m not so sure about it.
Like yes, it’s not typically Gundam’s demographic (it normally leans more towards male demographics) and yuri is typically seen as something enjoyed by female ones, so obviously they didn’t expect it to blow up as it has……
But I’m given to understand that Yuri is an absolute *powerhouse* in Japan, so them not having faith seems like a weird take.

So the prequel novel to Witch From Mercury has been uploaded for free on the official site! Go have a read!
I love the dichotomy of pilots and their mechas in Gundam. There will be an 18 meter tall war machine utilizing the latest advancements in electronics and firearms named after a demon or some shit with the meanest face you've ever seen on a robot and then the pilot will be the human equivalent of a Quokka
