Mobile Suit Gundam has had a great year, with The Witch From Mercury being a significantly good take on the iconic mecha series. As it’s about to close out its second season, there have been some intense developments. Throughout its run since last year, we’ve seen the juxtaposed school antics with the horrors of war lurking behind every corner. As we gear up for the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury Season 2 finale and the release of its English sub, will we get a shocker like we did last year?

Will There Be More Gundam: The Witch From Mercury After Season 2?
This remains unconfirmed, but given the Season 2 finale titled “Final Episode” maybe don’t be hasty to get your hopes up. Fans have pointed out that the worldbuilding is strong enough to merit additional seasons of WfM, or at least more content on the Ad Stella timeline.
What The Witch From Mercury did fairly well throughout the series, was pace itself and remind the viewers of the complicated lives of students in a world enamored with mobile suits, and how quickly they can be turned to child soldiers.
If Season 2 can end on a similar note to that of Season 1, soaked in blood and subversion, or perhaps a memorably uplifting note. There are still so many more hopeful moments that the series could have, such as medical applications of GUND tech, that could make for interesting story developments.
There’s also the angle that Gundam as a franchise is doing very well lately, and this series has only boosted that success. The future is bright for this mecha mainstay, and it seems a waste not to tell more in the world of Ad Stella Gundam.
