Well, based on the way it's being advertised, the TV broadcast should end at the end of a volume from the novels, and the four extra episodes will be another novel's worth in its entirety. However, the story itself obviously goes on into future novels. So it should end on "something conclusive", but I assume it'll be conclusive like Episode 5 was conclusive and not like "the whole story is over" in either case. (Which is annoying in its own way; an inevitable wait for the hopeful next season.)

Most likely. As far as how this one is doing, I really wish I had a good read... preorder ranking was mediocre for a long time, but ever since ep 4-5 it's been getting into the top 200 after episodes air. Fingers crossed that Kizu Random helps it really find its footing. We aren't going to get a sequel on lukewarm 3-4k sales unless the novel sales go crazy.

Okay, I've finally decided to make this my first non-subbed import after reading that vol. 2 comes with a box.

It actually seems to be implying that there's a box just for Hito Random, which I guess means Kizu Random and Michi Random might have their own, though I have no idea hw the one volume Kako Random would be handled. Curious what the nature of the boxes would be if they only hold two discs.

Mmm, that might be true. I just figured it was a box to hold all the volumes since none of the other arcs have boxes listed for them (as of now). With that said, only the first two volumes have detailed description.

Either way, vol. 1 pre-ordered combined with K-On! vol. 7 for the box through my JP connect to avoid DHL bullshit and customs fees.

I'm guessing the 8925yen volumes will have the boxes? We already know that vol. 2 will come with one.

That's my bet. The one volume Kako Random will likely hold Michi Random as well since both discs of that are ¥6300. Though I guess they could hold it off until Vol. 7.
