I doubt it.... at the rate of release I'd put odds on the japanese Volume 3 being finished almost simultaneously with volume 4's first month of episodes while volume four itself is translated starting about a week after that... unless they speed translations of the first few episodes(doing 2+ a week) that just seems unreasonable... especially for RT first try to learn to co-ordinate with the translation team while simultaneously releasing content.
