Finished Witch from Mercury
Aerial has weight to it while having an aggressive build. Reminds me of the G-Self with Barbatos inspiration. GUND-BIT probably my favorite tech introduced, the possibilities going even above what they put in the show. Aerial carries the design, but the Zowort and Jeturk line of mobile suits are very good. Best overall mobile suit design still goes to Unicorn probably (God Newtype Bullshyt aside).
Pissed me off. One of the strongest Season 1s for a Gundam show that actually built up the stakes/consequences/tone. Season 2 drops it off a cliff and the show doesn't really recover the high in any shape or form. Pacing went out the window, and the story zooms past both character development and important events. Doesn't give it time to breathe. Season 2 would have benefited from more episodes to build up (20/26 like IBO).
Suletta steals the show, with Guel behind her. Miorine annoyed the fukk out of me. Prospera is okay as the main antagonist. Nothing extraordinary or outright bad, just kind of there. Her being alive at the end didn't make much sense to me.
Mobile Suit Design - 9/10
