There are summaries on this thread. Really detailed Summaries. So detailed, even I remember it well enough to write a paragraph. I think, start around page 30 for the details you want.

Log did summaries, Ap1001 did summaries. Other people did some spoilers.
Agreed. It's really not fair for those who did summaries. Just go to the first page and read from there. The conversations in-between are really entertaining as well. Log did an amazing job with the translation and Ap did so too. They are so detailed that, really, you would mistake them for the actual chapter.

Question though: Why is it that the recent volumes have less chapters than the old ones? Is it still the same content-wise? Because before they all had 5 chapters per volume I think. But now they (volumes 3-7) have like 3 chapters only. :/

Well, I think it's because the story is more focused so it might be longer chapters. less individual events happen, but the single events are longer; so It's broken up into parts less.

We should just ignore these people who request for such stuff.

They're just plain lazy to utilize the search function.

The rules don't allow links in PMs either. We're strict about that rule here. But now that you know, there won't be any problems. Right?

Enjoy your stay here.

Hold it... Since it's been a month, we received no words about Vol. 7 update.

I was asking if there's any news on a volume 8 release. I'm in the same boat as you, haven't heard anything about the next volume.

You mean a translation update or more spoilers? Then again, they're pretty much the same thing.

I'm talking about translation update, cause I know that the translation progress for this series is rather slow.

PS: It looks like Vol. 8 will be continuing the current arc.

Yeah, I wonder where Ping is. It'd be nice if he could give us a quick update on his progress

Ping is apparently busy engaging with other projects, I assume. And we can't expect him to give updates at those times back.

Well, IIRC, most of the Baka-Tsuki translations come from the Chinese websites. That being said, it's getting difficult to get translations from the original Japanese source because a large number of Chinese fan translators and the fans themselves are pretty much dropping this series after the controversy with the NTR plot device thrown in volumes 5 and 6 (as much as I wanted the anime to be a two-cour series covering up to volume 6, I forgot that volumes 5 & 6 was too dark and controversial to be animated, and the viewers would hate the series even more). That being said, NTR isn't the worst thing an author can do to piss anyone off. Depictions of rape, particularly on young children, is even more upsetting to fans than NTR (this is why Urobutcher's willingness to depict rape in most of his works as a source of tearjerker and drama got criticized a lot).

Anyways, here's what I'm predicting in volume 8 in this two-volume storyarch:

Spoiler for theories and speculation:


Spoiler for Other possible storyarchs in the future that the author might have:

Kinda disappointed to hear about the reason! Btw, I don't think NTR is the reason to drop BB since SAO also has NTR, though there are translators who are willing to get the job done . Btw, would you mind to forward me sources which can update me the latest progress of BB?
