Mobile Suit Gundam the Witch from Mercury - 『PROLOGUE』（EN,HK,TW,CN,KR,ID,VN,TH,FR,IT sub） 

better than build series

I got thrills at this moment and during all the fight.

I have to admit, I haven't been this excited since Gundam 00.

@@androyus that we know of

Baby's first warcrime.

she knew, at that exact moment, that her child would never be able to LIVE a normal life.

It's not a Gundam show if there's no girl in a WMD

It's not gundam without a child pilot.

Also keep in mind she's linked through a system that has crippled and killed grown men before.

@@DHCR-core yeah cause they weren’t important to the story =p

They took everything from her and more

🇧🇷🇰🇷

The ignorance of a child

Rather than her killing anyone, I thought the saddest thing was her not knowing her father was wishing her Happy Birthday to his death.

Screw that they deserved that .. she doesn't know her father is dead... A cry when she finds out

@@lpk6372 No one deserves to die in war, they are just cogs in the machine.

The way the music picks up after that gives me goosebumps every time.

Same, with the music and the voice of eri. Perfection

The part where they sing Happy Birthday and her daughter finishes it after her father dies if that isn't sad I don't know what it is

@@darrelldundee5045 Watching the enemy soldiers, who were there to kill them, freaking out over the fact that Eri and her dad were singing happy birthday is what really sells the ending for me. The enemy soldiers went there seeing Eri and her family as monsters for what they created (the Gundam) but that moment of innocence was a stark contrast to that notion. For the briefest of moments they saw Eri and her family as people. They were terrified of their own orders that that they dutifully carried out. That's why they wanted to cut communications. They couldn't handle the reality that Eri and her family were no different from them.

@@darrelldundee5045 my heart was crushed on that part

@Tú oh I haven't read the web novel. If possible, can I please have the link where I can read it? tyia

@@Villan8lle What's your email? I send it.

@@mikhailsharon4331 can u send it to me too?

@Tú omw I want to read the novel tooo

Agreed. play devil’s advocate, as of now, we don’t *know* what Prospera’s plan is and who it will hurt in the process, but I can definitely understand her going the distance to get some revenge after what she was put through here

This is good writing and world building. Like you said instead of force feeding us details they make the viewer do a bit of exploring and is rewarded for their efforts.

An example would be when a character mentions something about tariff rates. A passing mention, but gives us a small idea of the situation of this universe's logistics.

Like that opinion poll at 4:40, which showed that the Earthians want their government to focus on poverty reduction and fair trade, which meant that Earth struggles with poverty and is in someway economically disadvantaged. While the Spacians focus more on Defense/Security and Free Competition, which means they're probably dominant over the Earthians militarily and economically.

I really liked the introduction of GUND. This is clearly central to the plot, so they gave us a bit of background with its nanotech medical applications and that it was repurposed for military use. We're given a glimpse of the effects it has on the pilots, but it isn't a whole lot. We don't know the full extent of what it can truly do, and I'm looking forward to learning more about it. Edit: Just realized the writer is the same one who worked on Code Geass. This is gonna be good~

Tomino UC style

Hopefully, Eri gets her revenge to the pilot as a typical "Anti-Char" (just like Amuro, Gaelio, Banagher, etc.)

I cried when Nadim sang happy birthday.

To a fellow Gundam fan, I extend an open handshake, and say, "Good to meet you, friend."

What theories?

Yeaaah. This prologue was f up. I have ptsd now. 🙃

@@mad0038 There's a theory that Suletta and Eri are not the same person and that Eri is Aerial (either her mind or her body in some form is in Aerial). Edit: Also the gund bits could be other children.

@@AaronTheUnwise The synopsis said that Ericht Samaya is Suletta Mercury. Suletta is the alias considering her mom is on the revenge for Delling Rembran, the dad of Miorine Rembran (Suletta's fiancee) the theory (or more like a recurring event) is that everytime a happy birthday sung, something bad happens (i want the elan-not-elan to be alive lol)

@@Q9Teen ofc the synopsis says that it's not gonig to spoil a plot twist, not saying the theories are true nescessarily just that the synopsis may also not be accurate either to keep the surprises

It was all a ruse

Truth is the game was rigged from the start

XD

Pretty sure episodes 1-11 also show we never left, Gundam isn't just about people killing each other.

I stopped after ep 2 lmao. Not because it’s bad, just not big on gundam. Should I continue?

Easily the best part of this. So many chills when the vocals played while her name appeared on the screen.

It's gonna be traumatizing for the kid

I KNOW RIGHT? I TEARED UP

Las series Gundam son así. Ver niños perder la inocencia y cambiar su vida solo por decisiones de otros

Could not agree more. Enemies will fear her name. Hope the bond between Gundam and Ericht become one.

Why?

Cus this gundam build from a kid

Because eri is not sulleta, eri is aerial 😮

You are 3 months ahead of us

Hahaha lol

Same.

second this

Thirded. After the recent reveals, this is bone-chilling to rewatch...

could be the best gundam anime since zeta.

just watched ep 20 and then watched this prologue for the first time. Man it sure gives you a different perspective....My like for Delling and the fat dude commander decreases a bit some

When the prolouge starts off strong, you can tell the main series will be bangin'.

thunderbolt is better in my opinion

@@rryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy my man, the show isn't even out yet, thunderbolt cannot be better without knowing what it's being compared to

@@rryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy the sad part about sunrise studios is that they dropped thunderbolt when there is still soo much content left.

I almost cried holy shit this is good

I mean, they gave you Iron Blooded Orphans too. lol I think this is going to be the same. Hello PTSD my old friend....lol

Trust me. As a relative newcomer who saw the Earth-based arc of Wing on RU-vid back in 2021, and then, after swapping to unofficial services, watched The Original Series, 0080, Thunderbolt S1, Char's Counterattack and is now on the last episode of the Unicorn OVA, planning to watch SEED and either G or Turn A after finishing Unicorn, even I saw what would happen coming. It's the curse of the Gundams: Those who are chosen by fate to enter a Gundam-type Mobile Suit are, with a few exceptions, doomed to lose _something_ in return. For Amuro, it was the sanity of his Father who soon became a delusional nutcase obsessed with the RX-78. For Suletta Mercury, it was her father full stop.

@@NebLleb * stares in G.Gundam *

@@GabesaNinja *with a few exceptions.* I added that for a reason.

Char clone of this series needs to show up quickly cause I need a mask to cover my tear

hopefully they can keep the momentum

Hopefully

A great prologue. Can't wait to see where it leads to.

Duh?

Actually going by Gundams very limited history with prologues, it should be seen as an indicator that the series is going to be very bad. The only other Gundam series that i know of wish has a prologue is build divers. Wish also had a very good prologue only for the series to turn out as one of the worst in the entire franchise.

What is "Kill'Em all Tomino 2.0"?

@@bertc9528 Kill’Em All Tomino is a phrase that up sums Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino’s most famous anime where practically all or most of your favorite characters are killed in the story. From Zambot 3 to Ideon to Zeta Gundam to Char’s Counterattack to Victory Gundam, main characters die horrible deaths showcasing the very idea that war of any kind is a losing proposition. Babies, children, dogs, old people, etc.. no one is safe from Kill ‘Em All Tomino.

wat r u talking about? she just playing one of those music game on the MS display

@@thanthongsupawiwattakut Mom does your weapon of mass destruction have any games on it?

I saw it slightly differently. Eri’s mom struggled to activate the Gundam so others wouldn’t have to. Yet, despite all that effort, her young daughter is the one who is arguably cursed to pilot it instead.

Military weapons are designed so pretty much even a child can use them and they do. The ease of usability means its easy to train even the stupid on how to use them.

She definitely has a legitimate grievance, but Thorfinn from Vinland Saga would say "I have no enemies"...

I undestand all that, but simply can't sympathize with her, mainly after the battle she started on earth, and the way she manipulated sulleta

​@@kalebaquinomileib8605She manipulated her own daughter, her daughter's lover, the company she was working with, the trust of a mistrusting world, and even tried manipulating an old colleague of hers. What she wanted was justified. How she went about it was not.

Yeah then she makes friends and watch them die T,T oh the feel train is coming.

it ain't Gundam if we aren't shown the horrors of war

I don’t think she was piloting it. I just think her body got it running. It’s the mum doing the piloting. Hence when she flys off you see the mums hand on the joystick. That’s what I think anyway. Kid was just exposed to the horrors of war and only part she played was she was needed to get the suit to work.

@@wannabkain4400 the mum was piloting, however eri herself was the one killing the soldiers. She was directly controlling the funnels and even part of Gundam as when she says one two three, the Gundam lifts it's arm in response and launches the funnels

@@chillfenrir6050 that’s possible. Only thing against that is the fact she counts them after they have lit up on targeting not before. But I ain’t denying she could have done that. Wonder if they will address it.

@@salamanderred8148 living in colonies or earth doesnt feel that much better tho, keep getting blown up everywhere, i'd rather mine in deep space and get as far the fuck away from the conflict as possible, "oh giant robots are quite neat" is as near as i want from them lmao

@@asdefull that's pretty optimistic, so...like people of the Moon in Moon Gundam? Being so "invisible" that literally no one cares about you the whole war. It's true that a colony can sustain itself, but there is always a limit for everything. Well maybe ten years, or a hundred years if you're very lucky, i doubt about a thousand (chances are, even in space, humanity conflict will grow one way or the other, cough, politics, cough) that the colony doesn't get any unlucky people to accidentally infiltrate and inform the others about your place... Or accidentally get shot from someone's High Mega Beam Cannon somewhere (since no one knows just how far beam cannon can go in space, although the theory is it will go as far as it can, until gravity or debris block or alter it's path) getting that one in a hundred lifetimes scraped one of your residences, the chance are almost zero if we're talking about the vastness of space and 3D and distance, but considering someone make High Mega a scatter beam spray a thing, the probability increased (unless you can somehow make their shot miss without no one noticed).

And amazing execution.

I’ve come to love gundam since I started watching it sometime ago . But I’ve also found out the companies that market Gundam are some of the most predatory I’ve ever seen. It’s almost like the anime is just an excuse to release more gunpla

18:23 Eri hit Layer 34 by the time Elnora realised Layer 33 was connected

A composite organism? That being said, albeit with somewhat underwhelming execution, I believe you might be interested with the concept behind anime Beatless

My guess would be the neuroplasticity of children.

This is what I wanted to say, but i lacked the vocabularies for them. You can tell the writers definitely did their homework and have managed to weave the concepts elegantly into the Gundam universe. In fact, they've managed to "update" the sci-fi elements in Gundam to keep up with the real world's on so many sides, it's beautiful

@@lilianchello composite organism? the first thing that came to mind was the fighter plane Yukikaze from the story "good luck Yukikaze" the MC pilot is in sync with the plane, who is by itself a MC in it's own right.

@@ArllensPaperModels Also, I think the moms cyber arm cable linked to the Gundam so I guess it can also work that way.

No, not even close. It's more closely related to Gundam Unicorn alongside Seed

The story is heavily dwelling on the Racial balance between Earthian & Spacian, which was the main plot for Seed/Destiny. As for the UC, I mentioned It for having the vastly similar system used by Unicorn and Lfrit unit. However, Lfrit unit has an actual AI unlike the NT-D equipped psychic frame unit.

@@jaykaye3482 lol what?

The show has other Buddhist themes like Eri's family name being Samaya. Samaya is a Buddhist term for a vow between a mentor and a student. The only characters who seems to fit the mentor-student line are Cardo, Elnora, and Suletta, who passed on their knowledge from generation to generation. The book Elan read in EP1 is "A World of Will and Representation" took notes from Buddhist philosophies about enlightenment and how the body is a shell for the mind, which fits Cardo's ideals about sending humans to space. It's a juxtaposition from the Christian stuff, like witch hunts. I guess witch hunts will be a symbol for oppression while Buddhist themes will be about transhumanism and freedom.

@@김윤서-e7x Yep things from Christian history of people not acting like Christians.

Her dad became the 4th candle. :(

I feel so much painful death on this series better be ready for the attacks of the onion ninjas.

same

almost all of the Alter Universe timelines like IBO and 00 are good starters as well if you're interested in watching something else that isn't too "dated"

It's gonna end well if there's no sudden attack from MS Development Commitee tbf. Even the Doctor didn't know Ericht would bypass the layer 33 as she think a little girl without GUND wouldn't affect Lfrith's GUND Format.

I got chuckle in that scene it make me remember a grandma that was my neighbor, she has a grandchild that was in her care. But as she was old she rely for the smartphone to entertain the grandchild when she do other things. So in the future just like that the Dr give Eric access to gundam to entertain her while she mend the crisis is quite logical and normal thing to do

Well considering the anarcho capitalist nature of this timeline, she mightve felt there was no other choice if the future is warring corpo states over the GUND tech.

Same thoughts too.

Ha. Birthdays. My favorite Gundam trope.

@@stephenbyrne2170 Gundam characters supposed to speak English. Also, non-English speakers also sing the birthday song in English too. There's nothing weird there.

@@stephenbyrne2170 idk the main language in my country is not english but we sing happy birthday in english because probably birthday parties are kinda... A concept we learnt from western culture? So the song is rather universal. Even in eri's time and place i guess...

I think the only other show/movie to reach this height was Thunderbolt. Gundam 00 gets close enough to be watchable

IBO made me immerse so much and rewatch countless times

The designs, the OST, the emotions, the characters and writing behind them, the grim foreshadowing. It's a banger for sure and I've been really enjoying building the kits for them Bandai stepped up their game with the HGs.
