Well, volume 8 was quite short but it had quite a some information hinted or revealed.

Spoiler for Vol 8:

-Chloe. Chifuyu asked her "Dont you want to meet with your little sister(Laura)?". It seems like they were made similarly but not quite the same. And her eyes are more crooked.

-One of Chifuyu and Tabane's classmate during high school checked Ichika's Byakushiki, and as result said it became possible for mass-producing the next generation IS.

-The school was attacked, but the girls cant use their IS since they are heavily damaged. So they went Electronic Brain World. There, they went through near NTR situation by Ichika's fake(The coloured illustration). Man, it seems like Houki will be the winner after all.....damn it.

-Chifuyu actually fought a IS without using an IS, and won after having Yamada-sensei ambush the enemy.

-Tabane shows that she isnt just brain. Her physical body is also OVERSPEC, and she barehandly disabled "M"s IS rifle. The only one who can put on a fight physically against her is apparently only Chifuyu. She also knows Ms identity, "Orimura Madoka". She also decides to build Madoka her own IS, though she didnt want to at the beginning when Scoll asked her.

-Tatenashi has completely falled for Ichika. And her real/previous name is "Katana".

Overall, some parts were really rushed. The author hasnt gotten used to balancing out the script, so you will see Ichika in point A, then at point B within a page.

Thanks for the spoiler n0m

Spoiler:

Though if it the next gen model starts getting mass-produced that means she is good enough to understand Tabane's gibberish and Ichika would be even more useless
