long story short:

the title of the chapter is in katakana (the only chapter with its title in katakana, i checked the raws i have). it indeed directly translates to endless eight. they are using the direct literal translation of the title. that's what the staff at baka-tsuki came to, and what i checked for my own curiosity with my poor katakana reading skills and following up with a translation web site.

the chinese version translated it as endless august, which i assume was in kanji. maybe you got it from there.
Indeed I did. Oh man that's a bad translation. But come to think abt it, its impossible to directly translate all that Katakana into pure kanji.

Goes to show how much effort baka-tsuki puts into their projects by searching up the Katakana, since they did translate from the Chinese novels.

But then again... Endless August sounds too ugly ^^
