It was probably announced even before today, but now it's official.
http://www.gundam00.net/
The interesting thing about this series is that like another recent Sunrise mecha series, Code Geass, the character designs are done by artists not familiar to Sunrise/the Gundam series, this time by Yun Kouga who's famous for Loveless. Since I couldn't get access to the fifteen second video feed, I can't assume anything... But rumor has it that the mecha designer in charge of 00 was supposed to be Katoki Hajime! (Just a rumor... Hajime being busy with Gundam UC and GFF cause me to doubt his participation...)
Personally, I think it is a nice change of scenery from two seasons worth of Seed. I'll report back with news if they come.
I find it funny that Bandai Japan never buys .com domains for some reason...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=K9cdZK03yIA teaser trailer. That is NOT Katoki. That looks like the Turn-A and the Gundam double X got drunk and had a baby while on crack. I'll give it a watch, just because it's a new show in a new universe, and thus needs support. However, I currently don't like the mechanical design. Apparently the Japanese text by "2307" refers to Anno Domini. That's right, if the rumours i've heard are right, this takes place in OUR universe.

Apparently our own calendar is Sunrise and Bandai's new "third pillar."

Still, looks like they've broken their "five gundam" rule. There's only FOUR in this one. Which is... something. neutral

Which is... something. neutral five gundam rule.... but that was implemented like recently though... why should we care if there are five... and yea, that looks nothing like Katoki hajime... That female person looks like Motoko from GITS.... and it is our time... but still 2307 is pretty far out... so who cares, sci-fi is sci-fi but new gundam I will watch just because...

Looks interesting enough with the machines, don;t know about the look of the last character they showed the one with the scarf. Any idea when it is due to launch in Japan?

for those who can read japanese, setting has been added, and the crew list (as in, who is creating, who is director, and so on)
