[some information translated from various magazines]

The title for the first episode will be called "Angry Eyes."

According to the Q&A section in New Type (the 'we' refers to the staff):

- Whether Kira will make an appearance is yet a mystery. Even though Kira, Lacus, and Milliaria are seen in the OP, it doesn't mean they will be in the actual story.
- Yzak has a lot of fans, but who knows what will happen to him and Dearka.
- We are worried about the relationship between Milliaria and Dearka as well. What will happen to them?
- (I can't understand the question about Haro and Shiho Hanenfuss. Something to do with the manga version?)
-Lunamaria is a spirited and tidy person. The relationship between Lunamaria and Shin seems like that siblings or in-law siblings. She would fix the button on his uniform if it's not done properly and scold him, and he would in return tell her to stop because he isn't a kid.
- Shin isn't a bad person. Even though he has a dark past, he doesn't succumb to it like Kira. He is a normal youth. The only thing is that he carries his little sister's cell phone around wherever he goes.
- The uniform skirt Lunamaria wears is not standard. She modified it herself.
- Rey is a leader type, and people pay attention to him naturally when he, Shin, and Lunamaria stand together. He is cool and a man of few words. He is Shin's roommate, but these two probably don't talk much. He's the type that would clean and tidy up his room.
- Meyrin is the type of person who is easily misunderstood by guys (whatever that means...)
- Neo (the masked guy) is the captain of the Earth Alliance Special Task Force and the commander of Stellar and the others. He is thoughtful for his subordinates and has an unexpectedly sparkling personality. He is trusted by his subordinates.
- We don't know why he is wearing a mask.
- Fukuda is secretly anticipating the real identity of Neo to be someone people know and like (not too sure about this one; don't tell me it's Fraga...)
- The three different colours of Impluse is not the result of different parts. The Silhouette system changes colour in addition to the change of weapon pack. The colour also indicates the level of energy (Blast Impulse eats more energy and has a shorter moving time, etc.)
- Even though Impulse and Zaku can equip external packs, they are developed independently. The packs are designed to be universal.
- As in SEED, DESTINY, GUNDAM, and ZAKU all stand for something.
- Lord Jibril (voiced by Hori Hideyuki, who played George Glen in SEED) is the new leader of Blue Cosmos. The organisation flourishes under his leadership and strength, and he is scheming to eliminate all Coordinators.

The Junius Treaty was signed in an EA battleship parked at the former location of Junius 7 in the first half of CE 72, ZAFT erected a monument at the site of Junius 7. The treaty stated that it is forbidden to use neutron jammer cancellers and mirage colloid for military purposes, and it limited the number of MS units that can be kept. Even though both sides signed the treaty, the hatred didn't disappear. They started focusing on developing new weapons and arsenals. Due to the cap on MS unit stock, they concentrated on the quality instead of quantity, resulting in the birth of models of high performance. That's the Zaku and the new Gundam series.

Earth
- cities have revived and returned to the level of normal life
- the discord between Naturals and Coordinators are not resolved; Blue Cosmos is still there
- Orb, which was occupied during the war, returned to the state before the war
- the leadership role of Orb was succeeded by Uzumi's daughter Cagalli

Space
- Dullindal is considering taking a harmonic policy route with the Earth Alliance
- Shin is attracted by such humanity from Dullindal
- ZAFT erected a monument at the former site of Junius 7 after the war

Shin
- moved to PLANT after the war and entered the military at the age of 15
- possibly holding a grudge against the leaders of Orb for getting involved in the war

Rules of War
- banning of Neutron Jammer Canceller
- limited number of MS can be kept
- the race to develop single units with high attack power started
- Saviour might be able to carry another MS unit and fly
- Chaos' claws are similar to those on Aegis
