Japanese fans who purchased physical copies of the upcoming monthly Japanese TV Guide have started to indicate that after October 8th’s SnK episode (Episode 49/S3E12: 奪還作戦の夜/Night of the Battle to Retake the Wall), there is no additional SnK listing in NHK timeslots for the October weeks thereafter.

This is a hint that the next arc after Uprising will not be shown until another unknown period of time, which would also explain the lack of solid dates for Vols. 5-7 of the DVD/Blu-Ray releases.

Note: Episode 49/S3E12′s title corresponds with chapter 72 of the manga.
