So raising is not the final volume of this arc? I plan to read it only after the arc is finished so, if its longer then all others combined. I'll have to wait 1-2 years? :shock:

Or you could read the web novel summaries over at animesuki.

Yeah pretty much! At least one more year of waiting. Or you can just read the summaries by Flere821 on Animesuki like Zero2001 said. Just keep in mind that the summaries are based on the web novel so some contents are subject to change once the light novel is published.

Both Humbert and Raios were strong with the sword, and even their grades in the academics were good. They received an abundant allowance of Shear gold coins from their families every month...
Those "shear" is the same currency that Kirito and Eudeo used in Zakkaria in 10-3: "Oh, the meat buns this shop's selling looks delicious... but the kebab shop sells it cheap for 2 Shears."
I can hardly believe these are gold coins ;).
Bustling around with a long cloth mop in hand, Tiezé finished cleaning the living and bedrooms in thirty minutes and entered Eugeo's room
From the sentence composition, it seems that Tieze cleaned both bedrooms (Kirito's too) which is obviously not the case. And looks like "Eugeo's room" (which she entered) isn't one of those she cleaned.
Maybe it's beter to say something like: "...first cleaned Eugeo's bedroom, next the living room... and entered Eugeo's room again..."

Shear coins vs. Shear gold coins, I suppose.
Same currency, different denominations.

Yeah, the "rooms" referred to "living and bed", rather than "living and bed(room)s", I think.

"Bustling around with a long cloth mop in hand, Tiezé entered Eugeo's room after the living and bedrooms were cleaned."
It's quite possible she did the cleaning with Ronye, which would result in her helping out with both rooms...
Plural/Singular in Japanese is way too ambiguous most of the time.

I agree, they're most definitely different denominations of the same currency. The best way to describe it would probably be just shears and gold shears (drop the word "coins"). Eg. "The buns cost 2 shears," or "He receives a monthly allowance of 50 gold shears."

Sadore-shi, the very image of eccentricity, scowled as hard as he could while grumbling, "It even broke three of my black refining whetstones which should have lasted for ten years" but he didn't take any money, saying that it was a once in a lifetime job.
Previously, in 10-4, he told a bit different story:
“This black Corengan whetstone could be used for 3 years, but that thing of yours already broke 6 of mine!”

I don't have my physical copies right now, but they're both accurate according to raw scans.
Well, only the line from volume 11 exist in the web novel, so maybe he forgot to change it or something.
I think my v11's the first edition too, so can't really check, huh...

Next doujinshi's at Comitia 104 with ponz.info again.

This time is... "Pina Edition"!
That said, only ponz's manga focuses on Pina, Kunori's story will be mostly Silica (again).
Maybe we'll get a Zoringen Hammer Edition sooner or later.

Hiya, I'm the admin at the SAO wiki and I was hoping I could get some help with something. As you know SAO Infinity Moment was released, unfortunately it is mostly text based story so the amount of information we get about the plotlines are from a small portion of our editors. I was wondering if any of you ever get around to watching the youtube walkthrough of Infinity Moment, take a sudden interest in translating a English patch, or just feel like my words have touched you and you wanna help the wikia, please send any info about the Infinity Moment storyline to the wiki. This isn't really a request so much as a if it happens we'd like to know kind of thing. Well if it doesn't I can just overwork the other editors of my wiki but I'd rather have a pro source to provide absolute confirmation of information that is added to the wikia. thanks and later.

I only finished the first quarter of the game before I got busy and abandoned it for the time being.
If you need confirmation on anything in that part, feel free to PM me.

Taking his sight away from Humbert who was coiling two ropes, used to bind Ronye's and Tiezé's legs, onto the wound
This seems strange. Humbert just got his wound, and now he already unbound the girls' legs? With one hand?
Maybe there were not the same ropes which were used to binf the girls, but some spares left after binding?
