G-Witch episode 10 thoughts
This episode had so much happen in a small timeframe. All of it excellent but it's gwitch, so is anyone surprised? It's so efficient at conveying what it needs to and keeping us engaged. Going to touch on my overall thoughts linearly so I don't miss something important—
Tumblr media
And right off the bat, we're treated to a drastic change in Suletta. Where once she was a bit neutral when mentioning Miorine, she's now progressed to blushing and gushing over her bride. She takes pride in being the only person who can tend Mio's greenhouse. This smitten goof even counted the days and hours until Mio returns. My god, this was a welcome surprise
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Buying matching keychains too?? I've consumed enough anime/manga to know this isn't the behavior of a mere friend. There's a romantic connotation that can't be ignored, and combined with Suletta's insistence that she's the groom to Mio's bride—Suletta fall in lova
Tumblr media
btw this joke is gold and coming from Suletta made it more hilarious. My guilty pleasure is puns, and it's nice the translators adapted it perfectly for us english watchers
The company progression in this episode was also incredible. We have them focusing on furthering GUND prosthetics and the inclusion of Belmeria is lovely after the revelation she was once an aspiring medical engineer. It's evident Belmeria is all too happy to see GUND's original purpose flourish, while Prospera seems apathetic at best :/
Of course, it's not all rainbows in Sulemio land as company intrigue is alive and well. Another Elan clone took the stage too, this one apparently close to Elan Prime in wicked personality. He's a snake and sows doubt in Suletta's Mio-infatuated head.

She pushes him away and flees, openly disturbed. It's good Suletta's rose-colored Elan lenses fractured but his words left their mark. And Miorine's next scene worsens it inadvertently.
Tumblr media
Now I don't blame Miorine for reacting the way she did. It makes perfect sense imo for her to consider all the tasks she gave to Suletta as burdens and not something Sulletta has taken with pride. Miorine has never had someone do anything for her simply because they care. She's used to transactional relationships so this isn't surprising behavior.
We as the audience know Suletta has changed in her feelings for Mio. Mio does not, and is working off of outdated notions of Suletta's Elan fixation. There's also the chance Mio spotted the two together earlier and misunderstood what was happening. Either way, Mio is only doing what she feels Suletta would want... a hit and then a miss. Still, they're moving slowly toward each other even if it doesn't seem like it. Romantic tension is here everybody~

Speaking of romance and contenders, Shaddiq remains in the game. I had a feeling he hadn't thrown in the towel just yet; he's far too crafty and ambitious. We know his play now too or parts of it. He's deciding to bypass the duel system altogether and go right for the throat of Benerit.
He makes an interesting point that despite Holder Suletta, Shin Sei cannot take control after Delling passes/cedes. Mio's shares alone aren't enough. He intends to rid Bernerit of Delling regardless, and if his gambit with the Earthian mercenaries we see is successful then I assume he'll strong-arm Mio into an alliance to secure Benerit for Grassley and Mio—perhaps with another proposal. It's shady but not unexpected.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because Shaddiq is the prince of this Utena homage. Something Elan was also previously referred to; only not an icy fake. Shaddiq has officially been upgraded to a major antagonist in other words. I could be looking too deep into the Utena parallels but considering gwitch (and Ōkouchi) knows their stuff I'm not discounting anything.
Poor Nika is caught in the middle, and her father of sorts seems to head the earthian group—Dawn of Fold. If the next episode title is any indication, we're in for a reckoning.
Tumblr media
Oh and Guel appeared again... as a worker? That's neat, though I wonder if he'll help fend off the Earthian 'witches' somehow. Guel's fate is most uncertain at the moment, but I'm curious where he'll go from here!
But enough of the dour future. Let's all bask in Suletta declaring she's the groom in this relationship like a twitterpated goober
Tumblr media
Edit: A friend mentioned to me the possibility of Imposter Mio and it makes too much sense for me to dismiss it. Peil facial switching tech, Elan 5, and Mio's early arrival? It's very suspect. I assumed her outsourcing the greenhouse work was just Mio being conscientious of Suletta, but now...

Think it’s possible that there’s more to Lady Prospera (the character herself, I mean. Definitely a lot more going on in her political/revenge that we’re about to get) than what we’ve seen so far? It’s possibly a preference thing, but I’m sick of the trauma/grief equals villain origin story. It’s not necessarily bad, but it’s been overly used. And why even keep the helmet if she’s just revealing her identity anyway, even to enemies like Miorine’s dad, the helmet is totally sus. Again, not bad, just feels like there’s something off with this characterization.
I dunno, I think I have to disagree with you on this one. When villains are created through grief, I don't think that's necessarily because it's grief itself, it's because the person themselves are trying to cope in an extremely unhealthy way; in this case being a 21-year revenge plot that involved cloning her dead daughter just so that one day she'd be able to maybe get her real daughter back in some way. This also involves ruining the lives of the people who killed her daughter in the first place, of course.
To be honest, I really don't think Prospera needs anything else. She lost everything in one fell swoop and her plan has always been to cause that same loss to the people who caused her own.
As for the helmet, it definitely symbolizes something, and while I agree it's odd how much she takes it off, I don't think that necessarily means there's something else going on. She clearly has her very deep reasons for wearing it or not wearing it.
Lastly, I think Prospera is one of the best villains for this story because it is largely a tragedy what happened to her. She was hurt, and now she's continuing that cycle of violence, even if that continuation is borne out of love. G-witch is a story about exactly that: tragedy borne from love, and I don't really think there needs to be some other, deeper meaning.

#it is a bit of a trip to think that g witch is less likely to queerbait a western shown despite the belief western shows are more 'woke'

From some lawyer explaining why AO3 works the way it does in attempts to prevent getting sued by IP holders like Anne Rice.
Tumblr media
Another lawyer adding to the topic. "Risk taking" as in letting users monetize the fanfiction AO3 hosts.

I've seen the tweet from the VA explaining why Chloe calls Nadine China
Tumblr media
But maybe the writers were trying to lay some groundwork ala foreshadowing hinting at the significance Nadine has to Chloe? Chinna being a name.

I love how many gags we see of the gang knowing Velma has a crush and are constantly looking at her gay panic.
