End of Act 1:
End of Act 2:
Chapter 1040:
Shows that Hiyori has her mask on again and is about to play the Shamisen
Also doesn't show Kazenbo fully dead, he didn't fully disappear in the panels below. Keep in mind that he is to Yamato's left in this shot.
And shows that there are still multiple bombs in the armory. Keep in mind that the area to Yamato's left is blocked by the wall.
Also shows us how strong just one of these bombs can be in this chapter.
The opinion that Act 3 ends in tragedy...

Now it's not 100% guaranteed that what I saw with the bombs and Kazenbo will lead to the hypothetical end of Act 3 (which might not even end in tragedy), but it is very important what Hiyori is doing right now in regards to her playing the shamisen as she did for Acts 1 and 2. I know Act 3 ending gets memed on a lot, but it would make sense for it to end as 1 and 2 did. It would be quite odd for Oda to randomly drop the act structure he was going for in this arc.
My prediction for when Act 3 is going to end is in the ballpark of Chapters 1044 to 1046. Mostly because Act 1 ended at Chapter 924 and Act 2 ended at Chapter 955
I'm curious about all of your thoughts on this, please discuss.
