Oh, I just stupidly noticed that the "out of fashion" headband that Suletta is wearing is her mother's.

Also, either the Aerial can't do attitude control via reverse trust or Miorine didn't know how to use it, hence why the Aerial toppled over. I found that a nice detail.

It's a nice touch in the mecha genre for a teenage complete novice to actually operate a mecha like a novice after sneaking into one. I would guess that Aerial is even worse for Novice pilots to be in because the pilot actually has to sync with it over time to unlock its capabilities without it killing them. They can just jump the PMET Scores up if they know it is a GUND-ARM, but they'll die very quickly without attuning to the layers like Suletta's family and the Vanadis scientists were doing.

Everyone is already noticing the Utena angle, but the boardroom intrigue on the adult side that has been hinted so far also seems quite interesting. What I've gathered from the assassination attempt scene is that whoever becomes Miorine's fiance also is next in line to control the Beneritt group, which is why the Jeturk CEO was trying to off Delling post-haste? Having your daughter married off to whoever kicks the most mobile suit is bonkers in a modern society, and giving control of a huge defense enterprise to that same person is beyond bonkers, so I hope there is a good explanation for this. Then again, Delling was shown to have some, er, particular ideas about the ethics of war and murder in the Prologue, so maybe he genuinely believes in hegemony of the strongest....

I thought it was quite fitting for someone like Delling to be betrayed in a similar manner to how he methodically planned his destruction of Ochs/Vanadis.
