Devard, I've been a long time lurker in AnimeSuki. XD Never really bothered with joining the forums till recently (been to lazy to participate in community discussions). I don't really go to the SnS anime thread that much either since I'm not really interested in it as much as the original novels. :P
As for the 10th volume of the light novels, it's being done by
木谷椎 (not sure about the romanization) and is due in summer time (no specific date given yet).
