8 volumes(from v7-13 + SS) for Index II if we count SS. Or 8 1/4 volumes if we add the first episode adapted from v5c4, that's like 3 episodes per volume. Comparing HnA vs TAMnI LN page-wise, TAMnI usually have 60-120 pages more than HnA, and the excess pages makes up for an additional episode. If they can do something like that before, they can pull a 2-ep per volume of HnA to us. (which I will go to them)

I wish that they don't murder the adaptation as well. But JC Staff had a precedent case of faithfully adapting the source material at first and then messing up later. But we'll see what will happen later I suppose.

Episode 12: Chapter 4 and start of chapter 5 leading up to Riko fighting Aria and Kinji again. Assuming the actual infiltration will go fast.

Episode 13: Vlad fight
That's a good way of ending that. Yeah, they don't need to include Kinji's bro asking for his assistance in killing Aria.

However, there's one problem. Since Kinji's main reason in helping Riko in v3 is so he can obtain a lead/information about his brother's possible whereabout. In Aria's case, Riko will just testify for her mother. So, will they cut the scene about the mail? Or they can go evil and include that twists and end the series. >D
