*spoilers for Witch From Mercury Episode 20*

So a lot happened this week, but the aspect I most want to focus on is Belmeria with the Space Assembly League. Specifically, Feng Jun being (presumably) gunned down by Godoy (Prospera’s bodyguard) as Belmeria is hurried away by Guston.

Because I saw that, and immediately though of the scene in the prologue, where Ochs Earth is being raided, and Nyla shoves Wendy away just before she’s shot. So it’s interesting that from being the victim in that situation, Prospera’s moved to being the instigator. She’s actively carrying out and perpetuating the actions that were done to her, in the name of her own vengeance.

It feels like a good angle, especially for a series that tends to put weight on the cycle of hatred that leads to war, and how that needs to be actively rejected for the violence to end.

Well suddenly the credits make a lot more sense.

And y’all were saying the last episode was a gut punch.
