Behold! I can now glimpse into the future!
…okay, you got me. Anyway, quite a bit of stuff was (or will be?) covered in this issue.
For instance, they revealed a third human character. The magazine is referring to her only as “Yuu” (ユウ), and has revealed her voice actress as well. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the scan, I can’t make out what it says, so till I can find a higher-res scan, we’ll have to keep guessing. :<
Yuu appears to be the hyperactive loli-ish type, and there’s no confirmation on whether she’s just a side character, or directly involved in the story.
UPDATE: A little bit of speculation, but Yuu may be played by Kana Asumi (阿澄佳奈). A blog post pointing to a certain article seems to indicate the case, at least, and her Wikipedia article confirms it.
UPDATE AGAIN: A friend (who definitely knows his moonrunes) confirmed that the article does say that Kana Asumi’s playing Yuu. There’s your confirmation. Anyone willing to prove both him and me wrong, go ahead. ^_^;
There’s an article about the B★RS character charm that will be distributed with the August issue (lookie here for details). Apparently it was intended to be a keychain (according to the top illustration), but it’s apparently going to be a tiny figure instead (like a Nendoroid Petite), base and all.
Also, the 3koma, which sorta explains the character charm’s origin, is just too cute. Dead Master glomping B★RS <3 ｏ(≧∇≦)ｏ
The lucky draw for the premiere screening of the OVA is covered too. Most of what I’ve mentioned is already there, though since I can’t read moonrunes I’ll have to leave it at that.
There does appear to be a cut-out though, which may influence the lucky draw in some way.
Aaaaaaand here’s the Dead Master 1/8 scaled figure!
This is the Original version, and was also spotted at the B★RS event back in March. I gotta admit though, it’s somehow badass and creepy at the same time. I’m getting goosebumps while blogging this, too. @_@
Other than that, I love the way the base looks like it’s been split by the scythe. This might mean the figure can’t be posed with the weapon in hand without the base, though. Anyone thinking of getting this? According to Wcloudx, it’ll be expected to release in November.
Credit goes to Shion963 for giving me the heads up.
P.S. I edited the cut-out slightly; no cheating you buggers. :3
P.S.S. Yes, I get the feeling I’ll have to learn Japanese soon if I want to start posting anything substantial. (;*A*)

Glad to be of service.
Oh noes, I didn’t know that Dead Master’s back was exposed… can’t really cosplay her now (if I could) now. ;_;
She’s a very nice figure but I don’t think I’ll have enough to buy her…
P.S. That short comic is cute~ X3

The main theme in B★RS is lots of exposed skin and metal. I don’t think you can cosplay any of them. XD
