Gundam: The Witch from Mercury Has Been A Hit With The Audience
- Anime was well-received by fans
- Season two finale was controversial
Gundam: The Witch from Mercury is the 15th installment in the Gundam franchise. It premiered in October 2022, and it ran for 12 episodes. Before the anime’s premiere, a prologue episode was released in July 2022. The second season of Gundam: The Witch from Mercury aired from April 2023 to July 2023.
While both seasons had great animation, fans were disappointed by the handling of the story. Aside from the main story, other plotlines were abandoned by the staff. They believed that the story could have been handled better by the writers.
Gundam: The Witch from Mercury’s season two finale was embroiled in controversy. It was reported that there was a lot of mismanagement within the studio. Over 90 animators were needed to produce the episode, something which is unheard of, especially when it’s not even a special episode.
There was another controversy about the anime and it was related to the omission of same-sex marriage in the digital print. Fans did not like that the publisher was trying to cover up something that was canon and clearly implied in the show.
Gundam: The Witch from Mercury is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
