Nope. Volume4and the Blu-Ray collection are the only SSs.

[Darklor]

Ah, k. I did wonder because in the afterword of the other books was the author also talking about short stories.

Vol 7 chapter 2

YES! Nice going, man!"

It's unknown since when did I become a captain.

"Speaking of which, Orimura-kun belongs to the student council, right? Tatenashi-chan, she's really cool[7B 4], isn't she?"

Cute...I haven't heard that saying often recently.

Isnt there something amiss?

Why does it change from man to captain? Or from cool to cute?

[Mystes]

Isn't it Ichika's mishearing?

BTW, can anyone give me the dates for the timeline?

Vol. 7 chapter 3

*Gya* *gya*. The warm shower of rain fell.

Shouldnt it be something different than rain? (Because I dont think that there is rain under a shower... ) - Maybe water drops? Or is just the "of" too much?

[Teh_ping]

That's the sound effect given in the novel: ぎゃあ.

I don't think Darklor is referring to the SFX, but rather the phrasing of

The warm shower of rain fell.

Because their in a shower. So, it doesn't make too much sense.

[Darklor]

Thats right. (I didnt mind the SFX, but the phrasing thereafter.)

[Teh_ping]

Wouldn't that be 'rain of shower' instead of 'shower of rain'? I forgot.

[hobogunner]

See, neither really make sense for it's context that much. I tried playing around with the order, but nothing made too much sense in it's spot.

I mean "The warm rain of the shower fell." Makes more sense, but still slightly weird.

[Teh_ping]

Ahh, just leave it as 'the warm water showered down on her."

[Darklor]

Wouldn't that be 'rain of shower' instead of 'shower of rain'? I forgot.

Ah, that could be possible, too...

The warm rain of shower fell.

hmm, do you think ? - I am myself not so sure (but its late so I'll leave it you guys)

Spoiler! :

(by the way in German we have Schauer (sounds like shower (Dusche) and Regen (rain) and the first is a sort of the latter just like a shower of rain )

What did say the original sentence?

[Kunagisa]

I got some really bad news for you guys.

The contract ended with MF, and basically they aren't continuing. Yumizuru tried to go Dengeki, but Dengeki said no too. Dude went back to MF and they still say no. Basically, IS has no publisher now, so the OVA might be the last work you ever see from this series.

There are also a ton of negative new surrounding this author, and I rather not talk about 'em, but as it stands, this looks like the end of the line (unless he does manage to get through to the other publishers like the post suggests, which I highly doubt).

Quoting myself from AS.

Ah, Mediafactory? Mediafactory has no power. It's bought by Kadokawa, so everything goes as what Kadokawa wants (man, Kadokawa's big). And the blog entry states 6th November, so you would think even ANN would have news about it.
