Followed by Restia returning from "death" (like everyone else that has cliffhanger "died" in this series), which also triggers the return of his memories.
(Seriously, I know the whole "it's not whether it's formulaic or not, it's how it's executed and how well it is done" thing, but if is as predictable as that without any twists, I'm not going to be all that impressed. >.< )

Ok, I am dropping this novel.
Hello
I am agreeing with this. It would truly be pitifull and disappointing.
But by now, i dont believe this, because DoomCalibur has given us no source of his information.
So long!

^ Actually he is correct, it's from the synopsis of vol12 on mediafactory http://www.mediafactory.co.jp/bunkoj/book_detail/1095, don't know if you can read japanese though. Anyways I don't really care about the amnesia thing as long as it's only for the duration of one volume which I'm pretty sure it will be.
Edit: I think he might have overexxagerated the last part though, the "So exciting!! A new start with everything being turned back to zero!" is actually just "The unrivaled elemental fantasy volume 12--The grand opening of a new chapter!" since the synopsis says Kamito's sword and memories are sealed and the title of the volume is the sealed sword unleashed I'm pretty sure he'll regain his memories at the end of the volume...I mean, he better, how can he forget Restia!!!

Yye1 from the animesuki did a good job trnaslating this sysnophys. Better giving him credit !
Spoiler! :
One week since the end of the <Blade Dance>. Following the event in the sanctuary(?) of the <Spirit Lords>, Kamito opens his eyes for the first time in a long while after having lost consciousness. Claire cries out of relief. But upon turning to her, Kamito says words of despair --- "Who are you?". Yes, Kamito has forgotten everything related to Restia. About the Academy, his teammates, and about the sealed sword spirit as well---. Peaceful days at the academy are passed during this period of memory loss. However, the destiny surrounding the <Demon King> won't permit that. Before the annual school festival, the magic of an enemy draws near Kamito who has both his memories and sword(s?) sealed---. The peerless elemental fantasy raises the curtain in grandeur on the 12th volume (bullet)!
A second memory loss. Did the author not have any other ideas?
Anyway, i´ll thank Yye1 if i ever see him. Oo
And an advise from me DoomCalibur, if you give some information out, then do it always whit a trustfully source.
If you do this, no one ever will doubt you.
So long!

... image dimensions of 1537x2163. Finally image resolutions that don't suck! Shame you can't get this on their kindle versions. Maybe I should check and see if their iBook versions finally have decent sized images.
Kamito lost his memories due to Restia placing a seal on them. Once hope returns to his heart, his memories will automatically unseal.
Restia gave her powers to Est, turning her into the Demon King's Sword, Terminus Est Zwei, and was transferred and sealed in the Demon King's treasure vault.
Currently, Restia's state is similar to how the Water Elemental Lord lost her memories and teleported somewhere, discovered by an elderly couple (this is at the end of the volume).
The Water Elemental Lord is staying in Astral Zero to suppress the dark power. Fire Elemental Lord confirmed to be released successfully, currently located somewhere. Holy Lord confirmed to be not at the throne.
The Holy Kingdom of Lugia's <<Des Esseintes>> and cardinal have all been corrupted by the dark power. The Holy Lord should be there as well. They are currently having dealings with the Theocracy. The princess (Sjora Kahn) takes over the Theocracy with a coup d'etat.
Uwahhh... amnesia again? And after reading chapter 2 (thanks for the translations!) it seems like the author isn't willing to play his assassin background straight. INCREDIBLY disappointing considering how hardcore child soldier Kamito sounded in the flashback scenes.
