There's something else, actually:

''今週号の感想たくさんありがとうございます. なんと次号も一挙3話！新展開突入です. テーマは「原点回帰」「新事実」「新キャラ」次の長編の序章的なショートエピソードの予定です. お楽しみに！''

Translation: ''Thank you very much for comments for this week's chapters. Next week's also contain 3 chapters! They'll lead us into new developments. I planned it to be a short prologue-ish episode for the next major arc. The theme will be "Back to square one", "new facts", and "new characters". Please do look forward to it.''
