Part of me wonders why there was only two chapters left. This one was 26 pages long (that's two chapters) and the next one is 48 (that's easily three chapters). Did Hiro just decide he didn't want to do it any longer? Maybe he was told to get it done in X chapters because they were done with him? 550 could have been a nice number to finish up on, but 445 is fine too.
This isn´t One Piece. Fairy Tail Chapters on average are 20 pages long and usually longer than shorter. 48 is two decent chapters for Hiro´s ratio, as he´s thrown out 30 page chapters with good art in the past.
He clearly doesn´t care about this series anymore for a long time, but why should Kodansha tell him to stop if he writes their second most profitable series in the Magazine it´s being released.
550 would require him to write 140 pages in 7 weeks, without repairing any of the damage to the story he´s done up till now.
545 takes him only 74 pages in two weeks. That´s nearly half the work in a 3rd of the time, but the man managed to draw two Manga simoultaniously multiple times for over a year, 48 pages is nothing to him.
I don't know. Bleach was pretty popular until he was told "no, you're done after this arc" and he extended it until a number of us dropped it anyhow.
I guess Hiro is already fixated on his next series and wants this over with quickly.
