I liked this chapter. It was also nice to see a little cameo by Tatsu-san, the homeless guy that showed up a few times early on, but we haven't seen him in like 10 volumes, at least.

Oh boy, numbered arc part means that it's more than 3 chapters.
It's gotta run for 5 at least, I don't think I've ever seen an "arc" go for just 4 chapters (bad luck number I guess).
I don't particularly enjoy hotpots, so this theme going for an extended period is kind of just... unfortunate.

Spoiler alert: This is the rest of the volume. It's 5 parts.

Yeah, I really don't remember if there was ever a 4 chapter story arc. It's usually 5 if it ever goes for more than 3.
I think there's one that's more than five chapters in Ala Carte, definitely not looking forward for that.

A two-parter will be labelled as 前 and 後. A three-parter will be 上, 中, 下. Numbers means it's more than 3.

I guess we’ll find out. I don’t think there’s been any 4 part ones. There was one that was the entire volume.
