Gundam 00 : Aftertaste… Aftertaste

Warning :
1)This post contains major spoiler for those who aren’t following Gundam 00 series until the final episodes
2) Apratz is the damned Queen of Spoiler, so she will have no mercy in spreading spoiler viruses *laugh frantically*

Last week I had a major agony, a pain that is hardly erased, even until today.

First thing first, my strikingly beautiful Itachi died in a super humiliating way in grandeur Uchiha combat, not because he’s freaking weakened against his hateful little brother, but because he was poisoned! I am seriously damn furious, that is not Itachi! Give me back my wicked and powerful Itachi! Now I feel like cursing the creator *sobbing*.

Second thing is, Gundam 00 first season was already ended! I cannot say that I am satisfied with the epilogue. I still think that it was really worth to be called a Finale, but since I am a crybaby, I don’t want to see some characters died, especially those whom I already had a bond with. Enough to say, I already had sort of emotional attachment with the Meisters. That’s why I will be damn freaking upset if they bid adieu to this 00 Universe. I don’t want them ended up dying; I refuse to believe that they’re all died. Tell me that this is not true! I am very torn when I saw Lockon died. I am super duper devastated when he was vanished with the huge explosion. In fact I was weeping like mad afterwards.

I swear that I won’t watch Gundam 00 anymore if they change the Meisters! I’ll seriously get mad if later on that Neena Trinity becomes the ace pilot for Exia. Please kick my ass if the new-built Meisters team consists of Neena Trinity, Stupid Patrick (without Spongebob), and Saji Crossroad. I am fine with Graham Acre being a Meister, in fact I’ve been drooling over him to join the Meisters team (then they will make perfect Bishounen Gundam-Senshi and wear frilly Sailor Uniform –here comes my secret fetish *grin*)

Hence, for the sake of entertaining myself, testing my analytical ability as a Fail ex-English Literature Minor-student, and giving my creativity a try as a storyteller wannabe, I would like to speculate about the Second Season of Gundam 00, with special highlight in the Meisters’ life (don’t ask me to speculate as a stock broker, I might end up bringing the Third Monetary Crisis in the entire Southeast Asia).

Setsuna F. Seiei
1) Setsuna F. Seiei is still alive
Seriously who will kill the main protagonist of the series? Let’s try to think in this way, can you imagine ‘Naruto’ without Naruto, ‘Gundam SeeD’ without Kira Yamato, ‘Code Geass’ without Lelouch, and so on and so forth? Setsuna is the major protagonist, he has huge resemblance to Heero Yuy from ‘Gundam Wing’ and not to mention Kira Yamato from ‘Gundam Seed’ (and Aoyagi Ritsuka from ‘Loveless’ *pun intended*). Those that I mentioned are eternal, especially our sovereign Godlike Yamato.

Setsuna will still be alive! He even has yet settled his issue with Ali Al-Saaches. As long as the antagonist is still alive, the protagonist will come down to earth and chase after the antagonist. That’s the common rule of typical Pacifist story. Setsuna has yet cast a judgment upon Ali, which will be his raison d’etre- reason to exist. Moreover, he has yet confessed his feeling to the Arabian Princess. That will be his second reason to live.

Hence, all hail Setsuna. He is dead NOT!

Allelujah Haptism

2) Allelujah Haptism is still alive
According to the Finale, Hallelujah, his alter ego is ‘vanished’. This implies that the next season Allelujah will be the modest and sincere one without the alter ego. Therefore, Allelujah still continues to live in serenity without any disturbance from his other half! (The role for outrageous Meister will be replaced by Lockon’s twin =p)

Never forget that he has a crimson thread with Soma Peiris that is being revealed in the Final episode. Their connections are still vague. There’re still unresolved mysteries between him and Soma Peiris whom he called ‘Marie’ as a cliffhanger. From here, I can conclude that I will still see Alle piloting Gundam in the second season.

Tieria Erde

3) Tieria Erde is still alive
There is still major mystery revolved around this rare beauty. Tieria shall not die before his background is revealed. Who knows that he was perhaps a Phantom of Aeolia Schenberg? Or who knows after the timeskip, he will turn into a pretty lady *vomiting*. In fact, one of his goal is to avenge Lockon’s death, means to murder Ali Al-Saaches. As long as Ali is still alive, he will also be alive!

Fortunately, it is already proven that Tieria will still be alive in the second season since he is seen during the timeskip overview. I think Tieria is my favorite character, just because I can’t stop looking at him amongst other Meisters. He never fails to absorb my attention during every combat that he went through. Anyway, I detest his new haircut! Please give back Tieria’s old haircut!

Lockon Stratos T_T

4) Lockon Stratos is still alive…… in your heart *crying a bucket*
I am sure that he is dead *sobbing*, but I am certain that his twin will take over his role and avenge his death. I sincerely hope that Lockon’s twin has a completely different persona with him. In the first season, we have freak Hallelujah amongst the Meisters, and now I expect Lockon’s successor to be the most lunatic one. That will balance the atmosphere amongst the Meisters. I suspect he and Tieria will have lovey dovey quarrel afterwards *fangirl-ism mode*.

I love tender and caring Lockon, but I am eager to see the same face with a very wicked personality.

Major conclusion : our beloved Meisters will have a reunion and attend a tea party (with Graham Acre as the fifth Meister) in the Second season *lalalala ^o^*

One of the nicer things in Gundam 00: No one is truly safe.
Besides, it's quite likely that we'll get to see Louise and Saji at each other's throats next season, better than their role this season: half-hearted tear-jerker.
Arguably, Tieria's new hairstyle is less adorable than his old one, but when you realize that that's really Lockon's hairstyle, you can't help but admire Tieria's undying 'love' for Lockon, g'night sweet prince.

OMFG You are so damn true!!! That hairstyle... is definitely Lockon's!! *fangirlism overload*

This is the BESTEST Gundam series that i've ever watched! it has so so many pairings inside!!! LockonxTieria!!! GrahamxSetsuna!! Kyaah kyaaah *purposedly ignoring Saji and Louise XD*

Ehhhh the post-timeskip guy/girl is not Tieria I think!! Based on the credits, the seiyuu for that person is Paku Romi... different from Tieria's.. you can hear that the "hmmpph" is different from Tieria's voice, no?

And of course, I'm proposing:
Feldt Grace as new meister

FELDT !! FELDT !! FELDT !!

Isn't Tieria pretty much a cyborg/robot anyway?
That's why Lockon used to say 'that's what being a human is like' to him. Apparently that's what got Tieria charmed too.
Then it's possible that he's a Mk. II, from Tieria's and Lockon's combat data maybe? (Aww that's touching)

@aussie :
GRAAAHHHH... HELL NOOOOOOO!!! That means Tieria in 2nd season is a GIRL... Tsundere Girl!! OH UAGH ARGH *shivering*

Girl is condemned to be a Meister. AGAINST!!!

@ryy_ :
devil may care whether he's a cyborg/robot. But please i want male version of tieria! tieria! tieria!

what's MK II anyway?
