Translations of the scans are in progress courtesy of Irovax:
Page 1Page 2Release date is fucking Spring '08, we're in for a bit of a wait.
-Looks like there's a guard bar and guard crushing now
-New visible moves for Warakia, Kouma, Sion, Aoko, Nanaya, Nero, Miyako, Len, Mech Hisui, Neco Arc
-2 new characters: Roa and Riezdsfbhdfb something
-Style select allows you to select different versions of each character. So far we see a Crescent Moon, 3/4 Moon (Thanks, Lina) and Full Moon version of some characters, which you can see during battle next to the their life bars.
-Both the maids are 1 char now? (Perhaps they're selected individually with style select?)
-3 new visible stages: an airport, a(nother) park at night and inside a church
-New character select art
-New aerial spark mechanic, presumably a circuit spark you can do in the air
Machine: NAOMI (Arcade)
5 buttons <-- Means quick action is replaced?
New storylines by Kinoko
Bigger stage
Choices of playing style: 1 is Full Moon Style which emphasize on power: lengthened Shield, power accumulation, and circuit spark.
Oh yeah, I dunno if it's canon or the magazine editor just saying this, but it's been bothering me.
Under Riesbyfe's description,
"She fought Tatari in the past to let Sion escape, and she visits Misaki Town as an continuation (of that mission). However, she supposedly died on the night of confronting Warachia?"
and under Roa,
"He was a high priest and the reason Arcueid has fallen. He's the cause for the incident 2 years ago, and Satsuki Yumizuka was his victim. even if he's destroyed, he has an ability to reincarnate into a child at a different timeline."
Is Ries really dead or not?!
and
Actress Again's timeline is the same as Re-Act?!
I picked up Tougeki Damashii on my way home
HisuKoha & White Len new image! XD
Nothing else new on the magazine other than these images...
Crescent moon style: Emphasis on Speed. shield counter, dodge, Aerial spark
