Speaking of which, how long is an commercial break in Japanese TV shows depending on the length of each episode? 3 to 5 minutes?

Do commercials lasted three to five minutes or shorter if you were actually watching Japanese TV?

Small ads and commercial breaks take ~5-6 minutes, considering the usual 24-minute length of the episode in the 30-minute slot. So yeah, from this "70 minutes episode" it's safe to say that it's gonna be actually a 40-45 minutes long.

The more important question is will like last time there be an announcement at the end of broadcasting re what’s next like last season
In m putting money on a 2 part finale film to cover the remaining arcs:
- Hashira training
- 1 infinity castle
- final battle
Would be better than a series
Or maybe TV special followed by film

You are absolutely bugging if you think hashira training + infinite castle + final battle can be done in 2 films. just the infinite castle needs 24 episodes. it's a very long arc. current arc was much shorter and it had 12 episodes.

is there only 1 commerical break per episode? if so it doesn't quite add up.
assuming 2 or even 3 commercial breaks in this "70 min episode", then the episode should still be about 50 minutes, a little more

Since the first season was two cours, I expected that to be the default moving forward... the second season had the bizarre episode count of 18 (probably a consequence of the Mugen Train arc covering what had already been done with the movie), and then this season only goes for a single cour... sure, the beginning and ending are longer, but still, that's kinda weird, right?

Yeah, though that is pretty short and takes only around a minute.

OK. So it's not really 70 minutes long but 40 to 45 minutes without commercials?
