If you moved forward you got two, a recognition and a wife; Witch from Mercury episode 11 Impression

Summary

The Gund Arm Inc employees were going to plant Quetta boarding the space ship that Miorine took from her last business trip. When they were talking about the journey, a sirene wailing. After checking the problem, they found out that there was an emergency in room eleventh; the life stock room. Suletta immediately volunteering herself to check the problem and headed alone to the place. Everyone thought that she was being very motivated with her job. However, none of them know that she was actually afraid if her presence there was no longer needed so she took any works available for her. In the life stock room, Suletta had finished duck-tapping the wall's problem until she heard someone talking in the hallway. Miorine was talking to Nika asking her to surpass Ms Belmeria Winston in the future as she believed her capabilities in engineering. While she was looking through the room eleventh, which was opened, she just mutter "unbelievable" and continued moving. Actually, Suletta was hiding behind the cow; hoping that Miorine didn't see her being in the room. However, she didn't notice that the lower gravity in the room somehow made her ponytail flew in the air; making it quite visible for Miorine.

Suletta ...Sadletta

President Deling met with lady Prospera in plant Quetta. They talked about a project called  Quiet Zero and Prospera took the Gundam to the plant because she believed it's data could complete the project. Lady Prospera took something from her inner pocket which alerted Deling Bodyguard; Mr Rajan, who immediately readied his gun and asking her to show her hand. Mr. Godoi tried to protect Lady Prospera and told them that it has been more than 20 years from the last incident which means Gundam should be no longer considered as a threat like before. Deling called Rajan name and he instantly lowered his gun. afterward, Prospera took the Flash Drive inside her inner pocket and told Deling that inside it, there was a structure Data of Aerial; which should help the project's completion. Delling warned Prospera that he still own the right of the project and the lady accepted his condition.

So any theory that she might be Erict was dying down

The scene changed to the hijacked spaceship where Guel "Bob" Jeturk worked. The earth terrorists were taking the crews as hostages. The captain of the ship begged the leader; Naji, to spare his crews and they could take the ship if they wanted. However, Naji only asked them to continue doing their job while helping the terrorist sneaked inside the plant territory. Guel could not hold himself and asked them why did they have Jeturk's old model mobile suits as their troops artillery. As far as he know, it was impossible for Earthians to gain access to the mobile suits even if they were outdated models. Just then; Sophie (Gundam Lfirth Ur pilot) kicked him in the chest, threatening him to stop looking after her.  The other crews could only asked Guel to stop asking unnecessary questions and stay silent for his safety.

Char-sempai would be proud 

Back to the plant Quetta, Lilique and Suletta brought boxes of lunch with them. As Suletta tried to take one box, Ojelo happened to reach the same box. Suletta gave the lunch for him and let the other Earthians took their foods first. Unfortunately, Nuno took one box and Ilia accidentally also took two boxes (with one she meant to give for him); which mean Suletta had no boxes left for her own lunch. Suletta didn't have the courage to tell them that she got no lunch box at her hand and had to satisfy her hunger using the remaining bottle of drink. She tried to cheer herself that she might be at fault for miscalculating the boxes. In the bridge, Nika told Miorine that she would put the Aerial in hatch number three. Miorine asked her to tell Suletta about it while she was preparing the video. Nika commented that she should tell Suletta directly. "Why?" Miorine asked. Nika told her that lately she didn't interact with Suletta anymore and she was curious if they were in a fight. Miorine told her that she didn't do any wrong. Nika just remarked that not everyone could act like her; especially Suletta.  Meanwhile, Vim Geturk met with Deling and told him about Sarius about to make press charges for the use of GUND Format. He asked Satius to sanction the Grassley for unstirring unrest. However, Deling replied was way different from his expectation. Deling said that instead of worrying to her daughter's company, Vim should be focused on finding his missing son. Vim got angry and told Deling that he never like Deling's way of claiming everything; which prompting for his bodyguard to ask him leaving. He was actually got angry on purpose though as he used the commotion to put a transmitter device behind one of Deling's man. Later on, he told Shaddiq that he already put the transmitter and asked him to start the operation within two hours. Unknown to him, Shaddiq asked Sabina to contact the Dawn of Fold in order to start the operation right away. 

20 years passed with one Big Mac every breakfast

The Dawn of Fold received the signal and Saji told Norea to get ready. Norea went to Sophie's cockpit and she found her watching at the duel video between Suletta and the house of Grassley squads. She got excited to meet with Suletta in order to find out which was the better pilot between them. In the next scene, we got a scene of a space ship where Kenanji worked as the captain. He was the ace pilot during the last incident (which cost the life of Erict Samaya's father). The passage of time had change his image from a fit Ace pilot into an overweight captain. He got a sudden called that one of Jeturk spaceships nicknamed the Wormblood headed to the moon. He was wondering how could a patrol ship headed to the moon while it was supposed to protect another territory. In the next scene, The Gund Arm crews was about to do meeting. Miorine asked about Suletta's whereabout yet none of the other knew where she was at that moment. "unbelievable" muttered Miorine as she wondered about her Groom's problem.

Sadletta part 2

Suletta was hiding herself in the toilet. She called lady Prospera and told her mother about her sadness. Never once did she think that being around her friends made her scared. Prospera told her to meet her and Aerial in C Block hangar 78.. Before she finished talking someone banged the toilet door. She hastily asked her mother to close the call and opened the door. In front of her Miorine was having an angry look on her. Instinctly, Suletta closed the door but before it completely closed, Miorine grabbed the door and tried to pull it open. Suletta tried to pull the door in order to close it while Miorine shouting that she heard Suletta's conservation with her mother and she wanted Suletta to tell her problem directly. Suletta who was panicked let go of her grab and made Miorine fell. Carefully checking outside, She saw Miorine with a murderous glare on her; making her instantly flees the scene.

Stay away...I am bout to turn into a werewolf!!!

Miorine tried to catch her and a chase scene happened between them with Miorine kept stumbling and bonked her head in the anti-gravity hallway. As Miorine knew that she would never catch Suletta (who had a better stamina), she was slowing her speed and panting as if she lost her breath. Suletta; who was worried for her condition, came closer to check on her and in an instant; Miorine grabbed her stomach. Suletta protested that her move was a dirty trick yet Miorine argued that it was her cunning mind that caught Suletta. As the anti gravitation drifted them backward, Suletta asked Miorine if she didn't want to use her help because she was stupid. At this time, Suletta tried to say everything that was on her mind. Including if Miorine only used her as a shield and if she was only worth like a weed to be picked on later. With a sad look, Suletta said that if she knew what she would encountered in the school, she would rather not coming there. Then, slowly she tried to push Miorine away

Suletta ran away from an angry waifu

HOWEVER, Miorine grabbed her hand again in an instant and chewed her instead. She said that she was not like her usual self. She said that Suletta always told her if she moved forward, she might get two in return. Suletta slowly replied; even she felt afraid to move forward. At times, she had to because she didn't know any better option to do. Yet it was scary for her to do so. And after that she remarked that someone like her would never understand. Miorine bonked Suletta head and buried her head to Suletta chest; then she punched Sulleta's chest repeatedly and said everything that she had on her mind. At first she was saying that it was Suletta who made her making the company; which including making regular report to her ignorant father. She was the one who made her unable to run away because of her stupid motto. However, as Suletta apologized; Miorine shouted that she was not understand her words at all. She was actually content with everything that happened to her. She was happy because Suletta; with her caring personality, somehow changed her life. Then she moved her hand forward and gave a hug to Suletta.

Miorine catches wild Suletta just like a Pokemon trainer xD

Suletta was a bit shocked to see her reaction. Miorine asked her to promise taking care of her. Suletta face changed as Miorine confessed her inner feeling to her. She then accept her request of kept depending on her and also Mio asked more requests like being together forever and to never losing a duel match for her. As she requested Suletta to text her three times a day, Suletta asked if she was crying in her chest yet Miorine asked her not look at her face at the moment. Miorine asked if she didn't believe any of her words. Off course she knew that it didn't matter anymore and In reply, Suletta hugged her back saying that she trusted her as well as she is her Groom. Meanwhile the Dawn of Fold started their operation. The Spaceship entered the Plant territory and they sent three mobile suits while camouflaging as if they had a problem with the signal. Meanwhile, Both Gundam Lfirt Ur and Lfirt Thorn was deployed.

Miorine after tastings a bit of Mercury's love spell

Suletta and Miorine walked pass the hallway. Miorine said that Suletta gift was kind of ugly but she also said that it was just like a present that she expected coming from her; a happy smug face was pestered on her face as she said that. Suddenly an emergency state was displayed in the boards. Sabine warned Shaddiq that the ensuing battle might cost Miorine's life. However, Shaddiq calmly said that their sole target was Deling and if luck was with her, she would survive the outcome. Both Suletta and Miorine looked at their phone; they saw an emergency B1 which means that a hostile force was attacking the plant. In the hangar, The crew asked Prospera to evacuate too yet she just calmly replied to prepare the newly built Aerial ready to sortie. Outside of the Plant both the Gundams shot their big laser gun creating a a huge scar on the plant. The plant was trembling from the laser effect and it disconnected the C block. Suletta and Miorine happened to be closer with the impact and the shock made them fell. In the other place nearby, Vim Geturk was very angry because Shaddiq had backstabbed him by ordering the mission faster than the expected time. In the Dawn of Fold bridge, Naji asked Norea to rendezvous with the other three while he asked Sophie to provide distraction. Nevertheless, Sophie wanted to kill Deling's directly and disobeyed his order by heading closer into the plant. At the same time Suletta just woke up from unconsciousness. She tried to reach Miorine; yet the nearby automatic steel door closed; making them separated by the door. Suddenly she felt a shiver as she turned her head around and found out that Gundam Lfirt Ur was looking at her through the colony glass windows. Sophie was very excited to finally meet the Witch from the Mercury

Review

After waiting quite some time finally we got another Gundam episode. It was not as grim as I thought this episode would be because I saw no war casualties in this episode. I thought we might see one of the important characters like Deling got his demise in the Christmas. Instead, they gave us a Christmas full with fanservice for Miorine and Suletta supporter. I made quite a long paragraphs to tell the detail of the episode's romance because I know the confession part was technically the culmination  of their relationship progress. They were no longer holding back in this episode as Suletta told Miorine everything that she felt. She didn't want to be used and left behind. Miorine knew that Suletta was precious for her and knowing that she might leave her; she confessed her feeling. She always considered Suletta more than she tried to display with her being a tsundere. As she asked Suletta to stay forever with her, she meant that wherever Suletta go, she should tag along. Another promise that she wanted was for Suletta to never lose a duel; which technically means she never want anyone else to be her groom. For Miorine, Suletta IS the only groom that she wanted.

A wordless hug would be even more powerful to behold

Even though I didn't shed any tears during the confession part, I really enjoyed how much their relationship bloomed. I remember correctly at the second episode that Miorine didn't think anything about her betrothal with Suletta. Yet, she now clings on the only happiness that she had. She even had the same grin that Suletta had from the last episode as if showing that they were really a fated couple 😂 With both of them acknowledge and accepted the other feeling, they could now be considered as lovers and no longer as bride and groom pretender. Shaddiq showed his darker side in this episode as he considered Miorine as a mere casualties should she didn't survive the attack. For the last episode, he had no problem with Miorine's feeling if her dad kick the bucket now he didn't even bother if the same person that she loved became a war victim. What a way to define you villainous persona. His character had reached a further heel just like Elan who had showed his worst side. 

 The Title Drop

The focus of romance in this episode was quite strong but there were also interesting part in this episode. For example, President Deling and mama Prospera did actually work together to made the Quiet Zero project a reality. It is still unknown what that project is but we could expect something big ready to be unveiled soon. I enjoyed the build up momentum that we would get the conclusion of Suletta and Miorine fate at the following finale of the first cour. Will they stay together for the second season? or will they got separated? In addition, the ending part where Suletta had to be separated from Miorine was kind of sudden. Just after they managed to fix their misunderstanding, they were parted by accident and to make it worse, Gundam Lfirth Ur cornered Suletta; making this episode once again end in a big cliffhanger. It was a great episode once more and like usual, we had to wait a little more to see the first cour conclusion.
