April 25 (Thursday) second volume simultaneous release?

April 25 only falls on a Thursday this year, in 2014 the closest Thursday would be April 24. That means it's confirmed for next month.

This is a bit unexpected as I would have liked for them to do a full 2-cours. Calling it the "Nationals arc" when it's just a quarterfinals match kinda doesn't match. I guess I'm glad we will be getting more anime so soon, though.

I wonder what the "second volume simultaneous release" is talking about. Which second volume? Or is it talking about the ending of Achiga? We still haven't gotten eps. 15 and 16, after all.

I guess Ritz's hospitalization made completing the side-b semifinals in time for a 2 cours run out of the question. I wouldn't actually have minded waiting until next April though.
Hmm. So some other translator on /a/ identified the "volumes" in the April 25th date to be Achiga vol.5 and Saki vol. 11. That makes sense to me, in which case the April 25th date does not apply to the anime. Spring 2014 should be thus be Zenkoku-hen's broadcast date as expected, then.
