Gundam Witch From Mercury Streaming on YouTube in New Regions

Bandai Namco announced that anime series Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury will be streaming on YouTube via the GundamInfo channel. The show is currently visible there in some countries, but from December 31, 2022, more streaming regions will be added officially.

According to the Gundam.Info official website, the additional streaming regions for Gundam: The Witch from Mercury are:

• North America
• Latin America
• Europe
• Africa
• The Middle East
• Southeast Asia
• Oceania

Residents in some countries in the announced regions, like Southeast Asia, can already watch The Witch from Mercury on Gundam.Info, so the announcement likely heralds further expansion.

Additionally, the announcement details a rollout schedule for each episode. The first episode opens on December 31, 2022, and the final episode of the season will go live on GundamInfo in the target regions by April 8, 2023.

In Japan and on simulcasted streaming services like Crunchyroll and Netflix, Gundam the Witch from Mercury is already up to episode 10. Scheduling conflicts in Japan delayed the debut of episode 11, which will go up on December 25, 2022. Similarly, New Year’s programming pushed the final episode to January 8, 2023.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury is based on a new original setting, where workers on Earth and the planetary colonies are exploited by “Spacians” running corporate interests from space habitats. At the exclusive Asticassia School of Technology, students representing corporations settle issues with mobile suit duels. New student Suletta Mercury joins the school hoping to making friends, but encounters the fiery Miorine. Miorine is the scion of the Benerit Group, the mega-conglomerate that runs much of the solar system, whose head (and Miorine’s father) violently outlawed “Gundam” technology years ago. And as it turns out, Suletta’s mobile suit Aerial is one such Gundam.

Gundam: The Witch from Mercury joins YouTube in more countries from December 31, 2023. It’s available on other services, as well. You can also read an English translation of the show’s prologue novella online.
