In Japan, Gundam 00 is already being released on Blu-ray: Amazon Japan.

The problem in North America is that anime (and Gundam anime in particular) is a niche product that's hard to justify considering the costs for mastering and the media. If Gundam 00 is very popular, then it might be one of the first candidates for a mass Blu-ray anime release. I haven't heard anything special in terms of Gundam 00 in North America though, so it looks like it'll only happen after anime in general show up in that format. It doesn't look like that will be any time soon though.

Any event or information that increases a character's risk of being killed in the show.

Anyone know the reason why Tiera's helmet viser is different from the other Meisters? It's orange-ish rather than purple.

It be because his suit is purple.

you mean the visor colours right?

Probably to let the Audience instantly know who they are watching

They'd know that with whatever color. It's not that hard to tell by the face who it is.

Actually there is slight nudity in the OP2 of Gundam 00 S2. Much like the same in Gundam Seed Destiny's OP although I can't remember which one.

You really can't call what's in OP2 nudity. GSD's OPs are much more revealing than anything in 00.

Someone's probably asked this aready...
Is there any word on Season 2 of 00 coming over to the states? Season 1 just ended, and I'd hate to not be able to watch the second half of the series...

Spoiler:

Yes, I know very well that I can watch them online, but I prefer to watch them as they premiere on TV. Reminds me of when i first watched Gundam Wing..

I don't see why not. I mean if the second season hasn't been licensed already, then i'm pretty certain it will be anytime soon.

Actually, no. The term come from VN's(visual novels). By Death Flag, or any other Flag, for that matter, they mean an action or decision that leads to a possible outcome for the story.

Spoiler for Example:

Girl A: Would you like to go out with me to the spring fair?
You:
<A> Yes, I'd love to go with you

<B> No, I'm already going with [Girl B]

<Outcome A>You go to the fair with her and ward off an attack, or go to the fair and have fun with nothing happening.
<Outcome B>The next day, you learn that Girl A has been raped and left to die when she decided to go to the fair on her own.

With Lyle deciding to confess his love to Anew, most people believe it triggers a death flag, but it's uncertain for whom the flag is deemed. It may be that Lyle dies in battle, or that Anew dies to further the plot/development for Lyle.

Which animed gundam series (movies, and ova included) is in the latest in UC time and at what year in the UC, it is victory rite ? (not g-saviour )

Well, technically it was G-Saviour, at UC 225. Victory took place in UC 153.

Though, I have heard that Turn A is actually the last in the UC. With Zakus, a Gallop cuiser, Gundam Hammers, and the Kapools really hint at it being related to UC, so I guess it's possible.

Technically, Turn A is the last in all of the eras, regardless of what it was. I dunno if its still that way because of SEED and 00, however.

Yes Victory is the last animated gundam series set in the UC timeline.

To those above me, G-Savior wasn't animated and Turn-A is set in (CC) not (UC)

I just bought sinanju and unicorn and looked at the instruction book. I see a whole line of mechs and characters for the UC universe in the corresponding time line, and i thought there might be a animed series for that or at least a manga

Thanks for letting us know that G Saviour wasn't animated. Whether or not it was animated, it did take place after Victory.

Also, like Rising Dragon said, Turn A is a culmination of ALL of the Gundam series made up until then. They mention thousands of years of "dark history", and show numerous mobile suits from the UC era. Therefore, Turn A is the final Gundam series, which would still make it the very, very end of the UC timeline.

The question was referring specifically to animated (or animed ) Gundam, so I think that was a valid point... Though you could argue that the horrible CG was animated in G-Saviour.

As for Turn A's situation, it actually explains what happened at the very end of UC (when the colonies all leave the Earth Sphere), and makes direct reference to a "Universal Century" as well. So it can definitely be argued that it is the future of the UC universe. But it definitely didn't take place in the UC timeline, which, in the Gundam context, implies only the time period with years in the "U.C. 0XXX" format.

3.Did Gaza C bigger than Victory Gundam?

4.Did the O has pysocommu cockpit or bio sensor?
