Information on Season 2
All This is Translated from the Offical File volume Six
http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Mobile-Suit-Gundam-00/item183184/
The first part of the interview is Mizushima praising his staff, congratulating certain members of his team, etc.
He says that the easier characters to work with, after Soma and Marina, were Sergei and Shirin. OTOH, the hardest one was Setsuna
Marina will get more screentime in Season 2. He says that she got the short end of the stick during production, and that he's got a fame for being THE SUCK when it comes to portraying heroines (laughs again)
Graham is twisted. He fights to hog the spotlight.
Sergei sees battle as his duty and keeps his gaze on the life beyond it. Graham might be completely dividing.
Episode 1 left an impression on the whole story. The hardest episodes were from 11 to 13 (T: the Azadistan arc); they were also the most popular with adults.
They received a lot of criticism for dropping things and taking it easy during the first half. 'That's when the "WORK BETTER" switch got pressed' (laughs) It lifted their spirits and the show got better as a result. While discussing series production, they resolved to put special care into MS' evasive maneuvers; the animators were part of this discussion as well.
Four Gundams will be introduced in the second season. The Gundams will make use of the Meisters' special qualities, like a software upgrade. It seems it'll be unpleasant to use.
Ace pilots will be on the Earth Federation's MS. A GN-X Custom will appear as well. It will use a fake GN Drive.
That masked man appearing at the end [of S1] should be called "Face Man". It had been decided from the beginning that he would wear that "face". He wears it due to a certain "change". Mizushima thinks people will laugh at his transformation into a strong character.
'"What the hell is this stupid director doing?', they'll say (laughs)"
We'll understand why Shirin departed in the first episode of the second season. A new character will be introduced alongside her.
- There's a reasoning behind the selection criteria for Meisters. Setsuna has a very particular reason.
- Tieria's secret will be revealed in S2; Lockon might have known it by intuition.
- Japan is a country specializing in technology during the 00 era. There are Union bases along almost all of its coast.
- Shirin was personally selected by Marina as her political advisor. They were also classmates during college.
- Hong Long is not just a bodyguard. He's related to royalty.
- S2 will reveal the secret discovered by Prof. Eifmann.
- Aeolia's ultimate goal is not a bad thing. This is important.
- Only fake GN particles cause cell damage. In addition, DNA is warped only when it comes into contact with the output of things such as beam weapons.
- Lockon was convinced that there were no differences with Tieria's body. That episode might have set the line for S2.
- Whether Hallelujah is dead or not is a secret (laughs)
- The truth about Ribbons' body is in S2. Same with the Innovator.
- Sumeragi and Felt will show up during Episode One of S2.
- Why does Regene resemble Tieria so much? That's for S2 (laughs)

And theres another interview with him before that

Since we now know Graham is dead ... unfortunatly . I can now assume that Setsuna is alive , and maybe thats him in the mask at the end of ep 25 . Why i think hes there is maybe hes under cover , and the mask is to hide him from Ali Ali Sacheez that is revealed alive in the end as well [which pissed me off so]
After reading this , anyone else have any thoughts on this

The second season sounds good & predicted it should fit in with Gundam's awesome action, drama & all the other stuff that make Gundam, gundam, I hope the characters don't change too much though.
Interesting. I'm looking forward to it.
Graham... DEAD? Well, that's a shame. I was hoping they'd introduce crazy GN-Flag Custom in the second season, lol. And also, I'd like them to at least give us some hints about the new Mobile Suits.

For some reason I can't see why Setsuna would be within the Earth Federation. But this information is quite interesting.
First of all... THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING THIS!
YAY! Setsuna is still alive, Setsuna is still alive *dance around*
NO! Graham is dead? DEAD?! *hiks*
Despite the fact I just finished watching 00, I totally forgot which one is Shirin *sigh*. Still, the 2nd season sounds decent ^^, I'm looking forward to it!

I know it's sometime in October. I think it was the 16th for the Japanese air date...
What? Graham is dead? But who is the masked man then? I seriously don't see it being Setsuna. It didn't look like him at all.
I have CLAIMED Fate Testarossa. The queen of moe.
Come get your claimed at the Frenzy Fanboys group!

"transformation into a strong character"...... but setsuna is strong to be begin with, and he doesnt hav yellow hair color....... doubt the faceman is setsuna. anime dont usually dye the character's hair half way through the story.
I'm so glad Setsuna is alive I knew he did not die! He was not shown with gaping wounds and blood everywhere!
I cannot wait for the second season!
One think I would love to find out is the story with Louise and Saji, I liked them and actually cried when Louise showed her hand to Saji after he bought her the rings, that was so emotional and sad! Want to see what development will happen in the second season with them!
Also the thing between the princess and Setsuna want to see where that is headed.
Lockon was so cool kinda sad he is gone, think Tiera will woop some butt now in the second series to avenge Lockon! I loved the series my fav Gundam of all so far!

Of course Setsuna isn't dead, hes the main character. Why develop a character for so long and then kill him half way through. Its the main character immortality clause, they can't die until the very end.

The lastest magazine information implied Graham was still alive - http://blog.goo.ne.jp/kouryakukan/e/cbadf53bfe1c407dd40c48eb60982ab3 . The dead thing, for all we know, is just the director messing with us. He'd confirmed Tieria as physically male before, after all, and now he's jerking around with that information. Most of the spoilers being released right now are going to likely turn out to be true in a certain point of view, and not in the way that they were initally taken, or translated.

I really thought that was Graham was the one under the mask too but I guess it would make sense if it was Setsuna. I knew they wouldn't just kill him off like that.
