[shikishake]

so I’m largely writing this because I feel like I have to, for closure, y’know? I’ve been posting bits about most of the really impactful episodes of the second season of this show so it wouldn’t feel right not talking about the ending at all.

I’ve seen criticism floating around that the ending was rushed. I agree with that criticism, but I also don’t find myself really caring. could the ending have been better paced? sure. is the narrative conclusion to EVERYTHING perfect? nope. but I’m not left feeling that weird hollow feeling you get when you really enjoy a show and then it ends in a shitshow, largely because the parts that I wanted to happen mostly happened. the series as a whole doesn’t feel lesser for the flaws of the ending, and the things the ending DOES do right make up for it, in my opinion.

getting the obvious out of the way: they didn’t pussy out. the ending isn’t vaguely tragic and open-ended, and they didn’t pull a “and they were best friends forever :)” with sulemio. they’re married. they didn’t KISS or anything, but that’s not really necessary, even if a small part of me kinda wanted to see it anyway. they’re happy and safe and together. mission accomplished.

moving on, nika faced consequences. I was REALLY happy to see that. she was a small part of it, in the grand scheme of things, but she DID play a role in getting a lot of innocent people killed. it’s good that there were consequences for that. shaddiq faced consequences. again, awesome. shaddiq was a lot more directly responsible for a lot more death and misery, and I’m pretty sure the implication is that shaddiq will be spending the rest of his life in jail. I’m not actually a super big fan of life sentences, as I feel like prison should be about rehabilitation rather than punishment, but it would’ve felt a lot more hollow if shaddiq got away with a slap on the wrist. he did bad things. he should take responsibility for that. it’s good that he, and the show as a whole, recognizes that, even if “spend the rest of your life in prison” isn’t actually the conclusion I would have reached. I’m not sure what conclusion I WOULD have liked, but the crux of the issue is that there ARE consequences.

all of that makes the fact that prospera faces NO consequences... weird. I get it, crippled old lady with no direct evidence linking her to her crimes, but it feels EXCEEDINGLY frustrating to know that, after what she did at quinharbor especially, prospera’s ending is... getting to sit with her family in a nice field. it feels like she should have taken responsibility to SOME extent, if not legally than in some other way. that being said, I can forgive the show for this. not really because I agree with it, but because I think that suletta deserves a happy ending without strings attached, and even though I don’t think prospera is a very good mother or a very good person, suletta clearly loves her. if prospera being in her life is part of her happy ending, I think I can forgive it.

I have no idea if delling faced consequences. I like to think he did? but also I like to think miorine had a chance to... not reconnect, because I think that bridge has been burned even if their relationship has improved slightly over the course of the show, but find closure with her father. I also like to think he actually apologized and owned up to the FUCKTON of abuse he put miorine through but I’m well aware that I’m chasing a fantasy there.

um. permet ghosts. they don’t quite make sense in-universe, honestly, but I don’t really care. they were a very nice way to tie-up the narrative themes and character arcs of the people they affected, and I’ve always been the kind of person that can value thematic and symbolic parts of a narrative above the strictly logical side. I don’t really need to know how and why permet ghosts exist beyond what was explained in like, a single line, because it felt satisfying and thematically appropriate to have them. they did what they needed to do, and I can suspend my disbelief enough to quiet the part of me that questions the “how”.

I KNEW there was some shit up with elan prime. then again, I also thought it was a lot more “oh shit I just realized how in over my head I am, that’s a lot of people that are gonna be murdered and it’s overpowering my learned habit of reducing human life to numbers on a sheet of paper, this might be a bad idea”, and not as much “ya’ll are boring and I’m tired of you, see you in hell, peace out”. but I’m not sure how in-character the former would’ve been, so *shrug*.

eri in a keychain is JUST funny enough for me to forget that she killed people. well actually that’s a lie, it’s just that there’s very little ways that eri’s story could have wrapped up, really. either she dies in a heroic sacrifice to redeem her sins, which I never really like for a multitude of reasons and also feels really cruel to a child that has spent most of her life trapped in a giant robot after her family, her life and her future were robbed from her by corporate assholes, or she lives in some kind of weirdo in-between life, like she has been doing as aerial for like 17 years (or more?) but hopefully a little less awful. I like the latter better. I don’t think in-universe lore can justify giving her a new body, which I would’ve REALLY liked purely because even if she’s done some bad shit I think eri deserves to live as herself, with full freedom. but this is okay too.

suletta getting to fulfill her dream of opening up a school is *chef’s kiss*. miorine getting to be a girlboss for a cause that she believes in is also *chef’s kiss*. them being a happy couple is *chef’s kiss* squared.

all in all, I’d say the ending was a 7/10. I’m satisfied, even if it’s not perfect. that being said, the entire show as a whole remains at a 9/10 for me. is good. lesbians in space becomes political drama becomes high-stakes war tragedy becomes family drama becomes lesbians in space again. time well spent.

Predictions for how the final battle's gonna go in GWitch?

Well first thing’s first, it’s a 50/50 whether Lauda gets himself killed using the Schwarzette or Guel kills him/gets killed by him while trying to talk him down.

From there, I’m going to bet Prospera isn’t going to have any qualms about going up against her daughter, and the deciding factor is going to be Eri, who’ll probably end up siding with Suletta.

And then for Suletta i think piloting the Calibarn without any protection against Data Storms is going to suck real bad, be possibly near-fatal, but wanting to return to Miorine is what’s gonna keep her going

witch from mercury should have gone farther with its happy end all the dead characters should have gotten an Eri end

[jelly-cooperation]

Genuinely cannot believe Lauda was all “[Suletta] please come home with my brother!” and then Guel brought home fucking Elan Prime instead. Jesus Christ. That was not on my bingo.

The 11th Day of G-Witch: Circling Thoughts

Suletta Mercury is a girl so deeply in love. Her expressions in this episode are an absolute treasure.

Another classic Suletta moment with her now iconic "Suletta... forgetta" line. Once again, she makes the most adorable expressions of happiness over telling a joke to make her friends laugh.

I still find it very frustrating how this little conversation played a big part in viewers willing to look past all the horrible things Delling has done. Yeah, he's being less abrasive to Miorine here and trying to give her sound business advice, but don't forget this dude is still a fascist dictator.

The first official mention of the Space Assembly League! Unfortunately, the show didn't take this moment to expand on who and what the SAL is and leaves it frustratingly vague until late in the series despite the major role they end up playing. Missed opportunity here, another thing that makes me wonder if S1 was paced under the assumption of getting more than 2 seasons.

A new character named Bob! He seems happy, I already like him more than that Guel guy.

I know this is supposed to be showing the ruined and dire state of Earth, but I absolutely love nature reclamation and really vibe with these scenes, they're so pretty.

I love the contrast in this interaction between Suletta & Elan to "their" earlier ones. While Suletta is happy to see him for a moment, she's immediately clearly uncomfortable with how close he's getting to her. And whereas before she wouldn't take Miorine into account when dealing with Elan, she's at the forefront of her mind now, worrying what she would think. And you can tell how upset she is over the idea that Miorine isn't taking their engagement seriously and she's just using her. The almost kiss is so frustrating when you consider it sounds like execs made them remove the Sulemio kiss in S2.

A communication misunderstanding between Suletta & Miorine was inevitable, especially with Miorine's difficulties in communication and Suletta being primed with self-doubt about the legitimacy of their relationship from multiple angles. And while it mostly makes sense, I definitely have problems with how Miorine is written in this scene with regards to Elan. She says it's okay if Suletta dates Elan and even encourages it, which makes sense for Miorine before epiosde 7 when she was worried about pushing Suletta away. But I feel like in the months since then, with Suletta obviously moving closer to her, she would have lost a lot of that insecurity, and especially wouldn't want to push her back towards Elan. The only way those lines really make sense to me is if she happened to catch Elan & Suletta earlier, thought Suletta was still more into him than her, and was lashing out at Suletta out of jealousy. Why else would she bring up Elan unprompted?

Either way, it was a hard way to end the episode, especially as there was a 2 week wait for the next episode when it aired.
