The second season of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury, which concluded its broadcast in Spring 2023, is now available in its entirety on Crunchyroll, featuring both English dub and subtitled options. This 12-episode run brings the story of Suletta Mercury and the Asticassia School of Technology to a close.
Following the dramatic events of the first season, Season 2 delves deeper into the political machinations surrounding the mobile suit industry and the looming threat of the Dawn of Fold terrorist group. The narrative focuses on Suletta's continued growth as a pilot and student, while Miorine Rembran navigates the complex legacy of her father and the company he built.
Produced by the venerable Sunrise studio, known for its extensive work on the Gundam franchise, the series blends high-stakes mecha battles with the interpersonal drama of a boarding school setting. It explores themes of corporate rivalry, family secrets, and the consequences of war, all through the eyes of its predominantly female cast.
With a MAL score of 7.89 from over 62,000 voters, The Witch from Mercury has garnered significant attention for its fresh take on the long-running franchise, particularly for its inclusion of LGBTQ+ themes and a nuanced approach to its characters. The complete second season offers a compelling conclusion to Suletta's journey at Asticassia.
