Miorine being a fanservice for 24 minutes long; The Witch from Mercury episode 7 impression

 Synopsis

T

he House of Peil was conducting a meeting to make a conclusion about the Mobile suit duel between Suletta and Elan Ceres. Their hunch was correct all along. Earial was a Gundam; to which Prospera declared as a mobile drone, because Pharact itself was more or less using the same Gund-Arms technology. Back to Miorine’s Garden, Sulleta was a bit daydreaming while trying to pick up tomatoes until Miorine bonks her head using a watering can. She seemed a bit down after not seeing Elan for some days ever since the day of the duel. A message just appeared in her phone telling her as an invited guest for the next incubation party. Miorine already knew about the event and she had less interest to join it although in the end, she ended up attending the party due to Suletta. In one way or another, Suletta believed that if the party had guests from the three houses of technology, there was a probability to meet Elan Ceres on it. The scene moved to the party with both Suletta and Miorine came as the guest complete with their party dress. Along with them Nika Nanaura and the president of the earth house; Martin Upmont also came as the guest of the current reigning holder (Suletta) albeit they wore the standard academy uniform instead of a party get up.

Stand tall and Shake the heaven my hubby

As they walked pass the guests, Suletta noticed that many guests were talking about them. Miorine told her to regain her composure and stand straight. Not only the guest; the four C.E.O of Peil house also watched them closely. They asked the real Elan to get closer to Suletta during this party since the dummy (Elan number 5) was not ready to deploy yet. Meanwhile, Shadiq greeted Miorine and talked to her casually. Sulleta asked him if they knew each other and Miorine only said because they had meet before in similar events. Also, Miorine added that if Suletta haven’t pestering her to attend the party, she would never plan to join it. Shadiq teased Miorine by saying that she had change a lot due to Suletta “magic”. He said that Miorine never opened her heart to other person let alone helping and accompanying them. Off course hearing Shadiq’s word embarrassed her as she decided to move away from that spot.

What kind of deal happened between Shaddiq and Nika behind the screen

Not long after, Lady Prospera called Suletta and she stated how beautiful she was wearing the formal red dress to the incubation party. Suletta introduced Miorine to her mother. Prospera noticed her during the time when she was summoned by the council regarding the origin of Aerial. She praised her since her strong will had helped Suletta and the Aerial to stay at the academy. As if she wanted Suletta to go away, she asked her to find her some drink. Suddenly, Prospera’s aura seemed more enigmatic than usual as she grips Miorine’s hand tightly. She mockingly said that despite Miorine’s hatred toward his father, she still used her privileges as the only daughter of the academy’s number one man. For example, the beautiful blue dress and accessories that she wore in the party, how she had a personal chairman room instead of buying a house, as well as the recognition and respect from every person in the academy. She held Miorine’s chin up and said to her directly in the eyes to throw away her egoistical pride.

Hello my darling daughter in law

Somewhere in that place, Suletta was on the floor; her dress got drenched from the drink that she accidentally spill. Nearby; Lauda Neil (Guel’s half sibling) was looking closely at Sulleta with an angry expression. He never thought that his older brother would fall in love to an accident prone country bumpkin. Afterward, Vim Jeturk called him via telephone to prepare their grand scheme which they would perform soon. Back to Suletta, Elan Ceres came and gave his handkerchief. Suletta delighted to see him again and then, she told him how worried she was for not being able to contact him. Elan apologized to her for not arriving in their previous date and he reasoned that he had a tight schedule. After that he told Suletta to prepare her speech as the reign holder and he proposed to accompany her in the stage. Back to Miorine, she was worried about Suletta’s whereabouts and asked Nika if she had seen Suletta. The lamp grew dimmer as the house of Peil C.E.O made a special presentation. They said that they wanted to introduce promising students for the audience and by then the stage went up revealing two familiar figures; Suletta and Elan Ceres.

It's time to burn the witch ..with embarrassment 😂👻

The four Peil C.E.Os introduced Elan as their representative and also Suletta as the reigning holder. Suletta stuttered in the stage because she literally had no experience in public speaking until she remembered how Miorine asked her to stand straight. After that she finally introduced herself more confidently and explained that she had a good time at the school. It seemed normal until the C.E.O started to ask her about the Aerial. They revealed to the public that the mobile suit Pharact was using a Gund Arm technology and since it could link with Aerial, there were no more excuses. Aerial was not a drone but a Gundam. They even added that in order to reveal the truth, they were ready to sacrifice the development of Pharact and dismissing all of its division. Suletta was on a hot spot at that tall stage. She tried to reason that Aerial was not a Gundam and it was her family. As she tried repeatedly to call her mother assistance, the person aforementioned was being held and questioned by Lauda Neil in front of the incubation room. Vim Jeturk and the house of Peil worked together to hung Suletta at the stage and they planned to get her Gundam confiscated and destroyed once again. In the president’s place, Deling was about to make a decision after seeing the truth until..

I'll Protect My Groom at all cost!

HENSHIN!!

“I won’t let you dispose of Aerial!” Miorine walked closer to the stage. With a tough voice she explained that Aerial was a very advanced mobile suit and it managed to defeat both of Peil’s and Jeturk’s mobile suits in the duel. Not enough, she said that scrapping the Peil house development project would cost the company 120 million and she doubled the number to 240 million. So rather than scrapping the Gundam that did not harm to the pilot, she proposed to start her own startup company. She named it Gund-Arm Inc with her as the main C.E.O. She explained that her company would work on making sure the bioethical of the mobile suit development and she guaranteed that it was a “no risk” business revenue. In short, she asked the guests in the incubation party to invest in her company. However, no one seemed interested to spend their money to the little princess who had no credibility. No matter how logical her presentation sound, she was a prideful little princess who had no business experiences on her own. Remembering Prospera’s words about leaving her ideal and egoistical pride, she took off her high heels .After telling Suletta that no matter what, she would save her, Miorine ran off to his father chamber. In front of him, she begged him to invest on her company. She said that he was right all along that she had zero credibility that’s why at that exact time, she lowered her head, and bowing to the father she hate the most. She wanted to borrow his credibility to convince the guests investing on her new startup. His father said not to run away and added that the Gundam curse was heavier than she thought. Miorine saw the number of the investment..Deling invested 0,3% of the fund needed for her startup and after that the number kept getting higher and higher until it reaches the goal number of her startup business. Miorine succeed in making her own startup; saving Suletta’s Aerial from getting scrapped in the process. As they met again with Lady Prospera, she praised Miorine once again and said that she felt save leaving her daughter in her care. Suletta asked her mother that Aerial was not a Gundam but she calmly said that it was already known by all that "Aerial IS a Gundam". Suletta could not hide her shock as her mother had been lying to her all this time

Review

A

fter waiting two weeks for this episode, I am gladly said that I was very satisfied with the seven episode of the Wizard from Mercury. Even without any battle, this episode managed to create tension and develop our secondary protagonist Miorine like a lot. At the beginning of the anime, she said that her only goal was to leave that place and heading to earth. However, by the end of the episode, she decided to stay as the Gund-Arm CEO. Miorine really changed a lot as she started to view Suletta as the irreplaceable friend and the only friend that she would protect at all cost. Even if by doing so she had to beg, cry, and even bow to Deling. She also displayed a tremendous will and showed her prowess in management as she could calculate and form a startup proposal on the go. This episode even taught us that an incubation party was a party where startup business started and how credibility really can make a business started. Miorine was like a newcomer in a startup business. Sure everyone knew her as Deling’s sole daughter. Yet, no one knows about her business experience and how well she could run a company. The same could be said in the real world. Sometimes to make a business growth, the presence from a celebrity or a famous person would help a lot to polish the branding of the new company. When I put that title of Miorine being a fanservice for 24 minutes, I means that she took the entire episode focus on her and her very appearance was the fanservice. Lets not forget that she looks stunning on that Blue Dress.

So all this time it was not a family? Error 404

Another thing worth noted was about the amazing performance of Lady Prospera.  In this episode she really shines as a character since she started to show more of her “Char” quality. The fact that she could easily make Miorine felt threatened by her presence really said how scary she could be. Being a woman with vengeance, no rule will stop her from pulling a grandiose scheme and it seemed that it was her that worthy to be called as the Witch from Mercury not Suletta.  In fact, she managed to implant a belief in Miorine’s mind to throw away her pride when necessary. She smiled confidently most of the times and never displayed any worry as if everything just works as what she planned. I am not going to lie that this episode was intense and even without any bullet flying, Witch from mercury still shine and showed us a good entertainment. Character development was solid and I expected Miorine’s popularity to skyrocket in the upcoming week lol. Now I am sad waiting for the next Sunday LMAO
