MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM HATHAWAY The Sorcery of Nymph Circe Reviews

Rated: 7.4/10 ⭐️

Hyped for the next UC chapter after rewatching Hathaway and The Origin. Expected just a mecha brawl, but this hit way harder emotionally.

What Worked:
• Murase’s direction is top-tier. The Xi Gundam’s visceral fights felt incredibly heavy to me.
• Dropping SZA and Guns N’ Roses into Gundam sounds crazy, but it gave it a super unique vibe.
• The Alyzeus fight triggering Hathaway’s trauma over Quess was a total emotional gut-punch.

The Friction:
• The first half really dragged for me. The political Oenbelli stuff stalled the momentum.
• Gigi’s oracle vibe got overwhelming. Her premonitions felt too convenient for me to buy into.
• Dropping new units like the Mass Production Nu Gundam cluttered the big skirmishes for my taste.

The Verdict:
Watch for heavy UC lore. Skip if you want a breezy flick.
