Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury has officially confirmed the marital status of its two leads thanks to the series’ Blu-ray content.Fans who received the Blu-ray version of The Witch from Mercury were surprised and overjoyed to find that Suletta and Miorine’s marriage was made canon in the story. Images of the Blu-ray edition began circulating on X (formerly Twitter) on Dec. 21, 2023. Series director Hiroshi Kobayashi’s special message to fans was also contained in the Blu-ray, where he stated, “We had decided to write an epilogue, but we didn’t decide on the specific number of years until later. The ending itself is similar to The Tempest [Shakespeare], with Suletta and Miorine getting married and becoming partners.” Kobayashi’s statement can be seen below, followed by images from the Blu-rays confirming their wedding rings and the ensuing reaction.The Witch from Mercury was iconic in many senses, doubling as the first Gundam entry with a female lead in a clear same-sex relationship and one of the most high-profile mainstream anime to contain one. Original Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino recently spoke on the influence of his original creation, saying that it would go down in history alongside the works of Hayao Miyazaki. Nevertheless, he says many of the series’ core themes have been lost over time, and that the upcoming decline in anime quality means there won’t be many more iconic series in the future.
