Even when she's not here, Miorine is still helping. She's up in space nearly crippled by guilt right now, and her name is being used in a positive light because of her tomatoes. Even now. This is just--Miorine hates herself, but her passion is still be used to make people feel better. Suletta saved the tomatoes. The tomatoes are raising morale. What the fuck.
Also, Suletta's expression in the last shot makes me want to cry she misses her so much.

And as her plans come to their end and Suletta has exceeded Eri's permet score, Prospera because Elnora again. She believes that she can't ever be forgiven, but both of her daughters are reaching out to her. Despite all the monstrous things she did, in this moment she is just a grieving mother whose daughters want her to be happy.
And in the big final dramatic moment we have the excellent usage of silence to lead into the belief that Suletta has died before we, and Miorine, learn to our relief that she was merely unconscious. It's a very sweet moment that ties us right back to Suletta and Miorine's beginnings as well.
And so we finally reach the end point. The epilogue is brief but gives us a chance to check in on where everyone is at 3 years later. We get to see the Earth House kids finding success, Shaddiq continuing his penance, Petra alive and with prosthetic legs (yay!), and more. The scenes of Ericht taunting Miorine digitally are pretty funny and give us a nice view of what the family dynamic is like with a non-corporeal sister-in-law in the mix. And the scene with Miorine and the former Grassley squad is really nice because it reflects on the fact that maybe all of those profits will just go right back to space and that they've just changed the name of the oppressors, but they have no way of knowing the alternate paths. And so we close with Suletta's dream of building a school back in the mix, just in a different location, and the friends being able to live together in peace at last.
As far as endings go, this is pretty alright. The show definitely needed another season, but considering this is what they had, I think they did okay with it. I would like to see another story set in this universe sometime after this, but I'm content with G Witch even if I feel like it could have reached greater heights with 36 episodes instead of 24.
