You may have already figured this out, but the way you talk to people determines if they join your party or not, and who joins your party affects who else will join your party. There's no way to unlock all 40 characters the first time through. If you play a new game +, make other choices. As far as the story goes, you are still limited in who you pick, but in the battles you can "replace" characters with others from a previous game (again though, as far as the story goes, you didn't). New Game + does even more than it used to do. There's even "Continue +" that lets you dump your extra stuff into another currently existing save file. You can also fast forward and slow down the gameplay in one of those + save files. It's awesome.
There's a cameo appearence around the bend with 3 tone-deaf evil fiends.
On re-reading your first post, I have to warn you of something. Don't read too much into the theme music for characters. There's nods yes, but don't assume one character is a character from the previous game based just on little cues like that, or we'll be here all day. It gets ridiculous :D.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
