That'll be such a cruel tease. Why bother to introduce a future element if you're not going to explore/capitalize on it?
I think S2 will focus on New Jior's expansion & give some insight into the Magius. That's sufficient for 12 episodes. The entire S1 was to properly introduce the pilots. 12 episodes to introduce 5 of 7, I think they are stretching the series on purpose. If they really wanted to wrap this up quickly, they could've introduced the pilots all in one episode or three episodes at most.
So I'd place my bets on this series becoming a franchise. They've already laid the foundation, so it wouldn't be hard to continue. We have an unknown 200+ year period that can easily produce side stories & continuations. We have one confirmed 'immortal' character that can become a mascot for the franchise & become a guide for future protags, etc...
Sunrise really likes mecha. Gundam & Code Geass are already two booming franchises, if VVV joins in...sunrise will definitely cement their legacy as THE ultimate mecha studio.

Why'd you think that? Future Saki actually looks more at peace than current Saki & we haven't seen what becomes of the other three. So it's still up in the air, if anything, Haruto has the highest chances of a 'sad' ending.
Given Okuchi's reputation for killing off the protags...(Iori from Guilty Crown & Lelouch from Code Geass) Haruto may join them soon enough.
