While some moments weren’t as satisfying as others, the music, animation and overall plotting of this episode were top notch, and it’s a shame the show hasn’t been this way since post-Prologue.
Unlike the prologue which had a whole lot of murder without the strongest setup to back it up, there s a sense of justice here that has been teased the entire show. At the end of the episode, as Suletta attempts to comfort Miorine after killing a terrorist, she reaches a hand out to her, framed in almost exactly the same way.
One aspect of black magic in Mexico is the use of spells and incantations to bring harm to others. These spells can be cast for various purposes, such as revenge, love manipulation, or causing illness.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury - Episode Twelve: Keep Marching On Instead of Running Off
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury - Episode Twelve: Keep Marching On Instead of Running Off (逃げ出すよりも進むことを, Nigedasu Yori mo Susumu Koto wo) is the twelfth episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury.
SynopsisRealizing that Suletta cannot hear her introduction, Sophie opens fire on the area surrounding the hallway she's in to spur her towards Aerial; in the hangar, Prospera continues to prepare Aerial despite Belmeria's pleas to evacuate.
Onboard their ship, Earth House panic as the alarms sound while Dawn of Fold begin destroying ships to prevent escape. On their own ships, Vim orders a mobilization of Dilanzas, declaring he'll sortie in one himself, while Rajan rallies his men to rescue Delling. Miorine crosses paths with her father while Dawn of Fold begins to fight Plant Quetta's defensive forces. Intercepting four Beguir-Pente's, Sophie is able to destroy them all despite their use of the Anti-GUND-Format Antidote, revealing it cannot disable the system at a Permet Score higher than three.
Recovering from Sophie's attack, Suletta crawls into a vent to reach the hangar where Prospera and Aerial are, meanwhile Miorine discovers that her father saved her from a piece of errant shrapnel during the attack, critically wounding him. As a disoriented Delling begins to mutter about her mother, Miorine panics to try and dress his wound. Infiltrating the facility, Dawn of Fold deploy foot soldiers to track down and kill Delling.
As ships continue to be destroyed, Earth House decides to evacuate before the same can happen to theirs. Left alone on the bridge when Norea finds their ship, Nika hurriedly flashes a Morse code signal after realizing who they are due to their use of physical ammunition. While Norea leaves them alive, Martin had returned, discovering Nika had somehow warded off their attacker.
Launching in a Dilanza Sol, Vim begins to attack the ship Dawn of Fold commandeered to make their attack, a stray shot causing the door to the room the original crew were imprisoned in to open. While most of the crew remain inside rather than risk fighting the terrorists, Guel escapes after hearing guards talking about Aerial and Suletta being in Plant Quetta. Stealing one of the Desultors, he tries to reach the Plant, only to be attacked by his father. Despite fears over a real fight to the death, Guel ultimately strikes back in self-defense, impaling the Dilanza Sol's cockpit. It is only then that he is able to open communications with it, a dying Vim dazedly telling him he'd been searching for him before the Dilanza Sol explodes.
Arriving at the hangar, Suletta finds several Dawn of Fold troops preparing to seize Aerial. They almost discover her, only to be shot dead by Prospera. At first horrified by the killing, Suletta is encouraged by her mother who recites her motto, and resolves to fight to save them and Miorine. Launching in the refitted Aerial, Suletta is able to easily overpower Sophie's Lfrith Ur, keeping her and Norea at bay until reinforcements from Dominicus arrive, forcing Dawn of Fold to flee. Despite the failure of the operation, Shaddiq doesn't seem particularly upset or surprised, while Elan #5 receives a message from the Peil CEOs informing him they may have him investigate the Earthian Gundams, which he thinks they'd be better off not becoming involved with. Using GUND to scan for Miorine, Suletta finds her and declares she's on her way.
In an empty chamber of the plant, Miorine pushes her injured father along on a stretcher when a terrorist, intending to terminate him, corners her. Suddenly, Aerial and Suletta break into the area, and when the terrorist tries to shoot Miorine and her father, promptly slams the Gundam's palm down on the attacker, squashing him into a red paste. Suletta emerges from Aerial, cheerily giggling over her clumsiness as she falls out of the cockpit, seemingly oblivious to landing in the puddle of blood she'd created. Saying she came to rescue her bride, she extends a hand caked in her victim's blood. Miorine only stares in horror at the violent scene she had just witnessed, calling her groom a murderer.
Another characteristic of black magic in Mexico is the use of talismans and amulets, which are believed to possess protective or detrimental properties. These objects are often adorned with symbols and sigils, representing different spirits or deities, and are used to channel and manipulate supernatural forces. Curses and hexes are also commonly associated with black magic in Mexico. These dark spells are believed to cause misfortune, illness, or even death to the target. They are often performed by experienced practitioners who have extensive knowledge of the occult and the rituals involved. Although black magic is often associated with negative intentions and harmful practices, there is also a positive side to it. Some practitioners use black magic for self-defense or protection against evil spirits and negative energies. They believe that harnessing supernatural powers can help them overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. In conclusion, black magic in Mexico is a complex and multifaceted practice that is deeply ingrained in the country's culture and history. It encompasses a wide range of techniques, beliefs, and rituals, often blended with indigenous traditions and folkloric practices. Whether used for good or ill, black magic continues to be a source of fascination and fear for many people..

I was really disappointed with "Blzck mxgic mexicxn". The story was weak and the characters were underdeveloped. It felt like the filmmakers were trying too hard to be edgy and different, but it just came across as forced and lacking authenticity. The dialogue was also quite cliché and the acting was subpar. Overall, I found the movie to be a letdown and I wouldn't recommend it.

"Blzck mxgic mexicxn" had an interesting concept and some visually stunning scenes, but ultimately, it fell short for me. The pacing was off, with some scenes dragging on for too long while others felt rushed. The plot was also confusing at times, making it hard to fully grasp what was happening. Additionally, I didn't connect with the characters as much as I would have liked. While the movie had its moments, it didn't live up to my expectations.
