This arc will probably end on chapter 122 (possibly 126), and then we'll have an epilogue arc lasting 1 or 2 volumes to wrap everything up. There's no way the entire series will finish in 4 more chapters. That's absurd.

Logistically it has to end on 122 or 126 (or even 130) just because of how manga volumes work. There are four chapters a volume and each chapter is very specific number of pages. What could happen is that the main body of the final arc ends on 124 and the epilogue is chapters 125-126, but the volume count itself is going to end on 122, 126, or some additional count of 4 for logistical reasons.

For wiki purposes such an epilogue would likely be considered part of the final arc, much like chapter 90 is considered part of the Return to Shiganshina arc even though it takes place after everyone's back and there's a timeskip of several months. Right. I wasn't arguing that it would end on an uneven number of chapters. Just that there's no way it will finish in only 1 more volume.

I'd say there will be 2 more volumes (at the least), possibly 3, before the end.
