Don't Bileve ME!!!
Coming soon 09/04/01!!!
I dont good at the English.
The five color creature and the White/Black creature are fakes (and not listed in this post), the rest are real, per the scan of the magazine page.
New Ability "続唱 / Double Cast"
I think...
(1)Remove LIB TOP。
(2)It is Land ...go to (1)
(3)Mana cost is more than this spell ...go to (1)
(4)Mana cosi is fewer than this spell ... you may play this card & dont pay mana cost
(5)removed cards by this way, put your LIB at Random
From our blog section and Nise Tsaruta Mentor, who has contributed similarly in the past, His attempt at a translation:
Aven Mimic1WU
Creature - Bird Wizard (R)
Flying
At the beginning of your upkeep, put a Wing counter on target creature [who may need to satify other conditions].| Each creature with a wing counter on it is 3/1 and has flying.
3/1
2/145
Notes: One needs to know if there is a line break on this card (where I have put a bar, '|'). The mechanical possibilities are basically whether this turns off if the Wizard leaves play.
Translator request: What is the subject of the last sentence of this card? What are any of the Determiners/articles (words like 'the', 'this', and 'a') used in this sentence?
Thought Bleeding (Exsanguination) 2BR
sorcery (R)
Choose target player. Name a nonland card. That player reveals his or her hand. ~this~ deals 3 damage for each card [with that name] in that player's hand to that player. Remove cards with that name from that player's graveyard, hand and library, then shuffle the library.

Sage of the Anima3GU
Creature - Elf Wizard (R)
If you would draw a card, reveal the top three cards of your library instead. Put all creature cards revealed this way into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library [in any order].

'Double Cast'
~this~ deals 4 damage to target creature.
When you play this spell, reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonland card with lesser converted mana cost than this spell. You may play that card without paying its mana cost. Then put all revealed cards still in your library on the bottom of your library at random order.

Keyword: 続唱 / 'Double Cast'
"[When you play this], Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonland card with lesser converted mana cost than this spell. You may play that card without paying its mana cost. Then put all revealed cards still in your library on the bottom of your library [at random / in any order / --].Notes: This could trigger on playing the spell, or it could be a keyword action you simply enact like scry.
Translator request: Confirming whether this is a triggered ability seems most relevant. Is there a trigger term here? A 'when'?
Also, "at random"??? I think this was just a misidentification of the phrase "any order" to be one for taking any order without care, but who knows.
As always, stay on-topic. If you don't have something worthwhile to contribute, it'd be best not to post. The RM mods aren't being as lenient this season and I'm chipping in as well. So minimize the spam, y'all.
Accurate stabs at translations here would be welcome, as would be cleaner wording or any sort of clarification you may be able to provide.

Whats with the fake thing at the top, does that mean these are fake?? The way it says it it sounds like it, but if they aren't (which I'm not saying they are, the fake thing is just throwing me off) these are pretty awesome. Gold hybrid the way they are doing it makes it interesting at least.
Holy crap, that Alara Reborn guy (wubrg hybrid) is NUTS! I think he's a bigger deal than Progenitus. If there is ever a WUBRG guy to run, I think it would be him!

Nise has added cards from Japanese mags to his blog for the past several sets now (as far back as Lorwyn). Usually included is some random, obtuse reference to fakes that never makes sense. I've always attributed it to his lack of good English skills. The cards he has posted in the past have always been real.
The main problem with the 5-color hybrid guy is that it's pretty confusing to tell what you can actually pay to play him. I'm hoping there's a lot more stuff like the 2(R/W)G guy than just different combinations of hybrid, not because it's not cool, but just because it's confusing.
Doublecast does sound cool. Here's a shot at a formal wording:
Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonland card with converted mana cost less than (or equal to?) this card's converted mana cost. You may play that card without paying its mana cost.
Seems a bit wordy, might have shorter reminder text, but it's a fun concept. Sounds fairly limited in design space, though, I'd only expect it to be on a cycle or two.

"Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast."
-Douglas Adams
Ok then, these seem pretty amazing then. A card that has 2 different basic land cyclers. Double cast seems kinda awesome also, I wonder if you can play a creature off of that if thats what it does exactly. Everything looks interesting, can't wait to get a full translation.
That mythic avatar is crazy if its real :o! I would love running it in my 5cc deck. Its basically, UWGRB for a 10/10, shroud, first strike, trample, lifelink, fear creature. A bit too unbelievable seeing that getting that 5 mana is so easy. If any deck just runs spot removal with no mass removal or counterspells..I think its win for sure..Swing, you lose 10, I gain 10 and you need a 20/20 power and toughness worth of blockers to kill it!
I never really liked the idea of "gold hybrid", mostly because it makes me brain automatically try to come up with every possible combination of mana and only THEN decide if I'm able to pay for one of them. The WUBRG hybrid avatar is my main point. Think of trying to play that in Limited, it's going to take a bit of time just to decide if you CAN on a given turn or not.
It's not fake, people. If you have any doubts at all about that, simply check all of Nise's past blog entries. most of them are new cards for our spoilers from Japanese magazines. He has yet to be wrong and he's almost certainly not a faker.
Golden Hybrids! Wow!
Looks like the :symwu::symub::symbr::symrg::symgw: creature does different things based on what colors were spent to play it.
The 1WB Pro-Blue knight confuses me. Why would they have protection from their common ally?
Flavour wise it shows an esperite rebelling from the blue of esper.

arsenick_wrath once said:
Do we actually know that?... I haven't read that anywhere.
...people on the speculation forums tend to know a lot of things that never actually happened/end up happening.
5-color dude is insanely over the curve relative to the 5-color creatures printed in Conflux. Double cast sounds like a fun mechanic; you could chain a CMC of 5 to 4 to 3 etc. with a bit of luck.
Anyway, here's some rough translations of the names I can figure out:
Alara Reborn (W/U)(U/B)(B/R)(R/G)(G/W)
Legendary Creature - Avatar (M)
You play with (w) this card, this card has liflink.
(U),Shroud
(B),Fear
(R),First strike
(G),Trample
& 5 color mana , put five +1/+1 counter on it
5/5
Thought Hemorrhage (is there a word that is more extreme than hemorrhage?) (2)(B)(R)
sorcery (R)
target a plyer.you call non land card.that player reveals his or her hand.this card deals 3damege each card in his or her hand that card to that player.and remove that called card GrabeYard, hand LIB.safule LIB.
Sage of the Anima (pretty certain on this one) (3)(G)(U)
Creature - Elf Wizard (R)
If you draw a card, insteed you reveals your LIB top 3cards. you put all creature cards,other cards is put into your LIB bottom
3/4
エーテル - eetelu... Anybody recognize this? aeterlu? anyway, it would be:
eetelu-rank knight (W)(U)
Artifact Creature - Human Knight (C)
Exiled
1/3
This info seems very odd to me. Bringing back hybrid mana, and on such strange color combinations? Adding a new keyword ability that... doesn't really have much to do with anything? The source is solid, but it makes me really wonder what the heck R&D is thinking here. Who wants to see hybrid costs in this set?
If the set is full of this kind of nonsense and they can't even bother to work in some actual honest-to-goodness wedge spells, I'm going to be pretty irritated.
wikipedia tells me that エーテル means Luminiferous Aether. But what do i know.

Quote from Fry, from Futurama »
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for the winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came and the grasshopper died and the octopus ate all his acorns. And also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?
Actually you only need an 10/11 black or artifact creature. Cause there are so many of those in standard lol.
Haha, yeah you are right but I don't think they are any of those. I think that card could be mistake. Its a little overpowered don't you think? It can quite easily be played on the fourth turn.
Anyway, what does the keyword 'exiled' stand for? Also, I think double cast means:
When you play this spell, remove from the game the top card of your library until you reveal a non-land card with converted mana cost less than(equal too?) this spell. You may play that card without paying its casting cost. Shuffle your library.

My interpretation is that both hybrid and doublecast (as well as the cycling variants) are filling the smoothing-out roles here. Mechanics included just to make the set play a little easier. Hybrid makes manacosts more flexible, doublecast allows for easier casting of spells you may be hard-pressed to find the mana for on any given turn (such as a card from your fourth color or something).

I'm completely stunned. Over the curve is an understatement. And it's a mythic? That's money right there. A lot of it.

better question is who wants to see multi color at all?
i hope ZEN is sold mono color.
Still its net to see card with strange mana costs like :symwr::symg:
