Thanks Psyke.
As Bill pointed out, that is what we are trying to figure out before I order the book through Amazon Japan. The book itself isn't that expensive... but shipment to Mexico is... and I kinda only want the contact book...
The part about it being an illustration book (even if its only partial) is enough for me to get it. Just need to know if it comes with the magazine.
From the way the cover promotes the book, I'm pretty sure it's a free supplement to the magazine itself.

How do you say "job interview" in Japanese? Would it be kyuushoku?
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Kyuushoku (求職) is more like looking for employment. If you are talking about an employment interview, usually shuusyoku mensetsu (就職面接) or just mensetsu (面接) is used.

It's the official website on the dragon ball online mmorpg in planning. Does it say anything about any beta testing or possible release dates?
8th Sep - Start of closed Beta in Korea.
20th Sep - End of 3 day closed Beta in Korea.
You did check out the links for the pics and videos right?

<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
It's a great song isn't it?
No correct translation possible?
I'm struggling even to understand the English meaning

It sounds like one of those skeptical questions to me, like:I'm struggling even to understand the English meaning
"Where are you?"
"I'm coming now!"
"How soon is now?"
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
"When can we start?"
"Soon"
"How soon is right now?"
The implication being "Is right now too soon to start?"
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
It would be one of those skeptical questions, however it is a title also.
Ill be there in a moment. How long is a moment?
Am i right to assume that japanese and skeptical sentences don't mix?
Nope, for any translation you need as many details as possible, for you can totally miss the true meaning you wish to translate.
All details includ context, who, how, why, culture differences and so on.
And in Japanese specific cultural details are very important too.
But in this case, the problem would be to know the book we speak of, because for translating its title, it is highly important to know about the story to try and give the best possible set of words and meaning, that will mimic the authors intentions.
Think of all the possiblities you have in english to just describe someone, a tree or the weather outside.
Try now to think of all the possibilities to describe the same idea, a concept... and you'll understand that a translation is the even more complicated.
So giving just a phrase is calling for more questions, when asking for a translation...
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
It's the title of a song. There is a stanza of lyrics that goes:
When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone
The title is just another way of asking that same question. As I said above, the implication is "I would like to start as soon as possible. Is right now too soon?"
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
How soon is now?
