So this came from ANN twitter today:

Shonen Jump did not announce when Reborn/Koisome Momiji will end. @manganewsjapon tweeted a personal prediction, not news of an announcement

So yup, Chusetto, seems they just took it from manganews.. And then it just spreaded like it was the official word..

Not exactly. People didn't assume it as an official word; of course we know better. It's just that the likelihood of that happening is great considering the number of new series starting and the Reborn! is entering its climax declaration.

Also Naruto had an Climax declaration, which means that the Manga is nearly by the End.

Naruto's was somewhat different from Reborn!'s. Naruto's was only with its editor's side-comment inputs (If that's what it's called), but Reborn's was on the cover. Naruto was predicted to end in 2014 though, by Kishimoto himself.

Official announcements are never made this early. The three new series announcements are not official either. We always get new series announcements, endings, and cancellation news a few weeks before Weekly Jump make an announcement. The news about Reborn is no different.

The three new series announcements are official. They're already in the preview for next issue info right before the ToC in the magazine.

I think Kaiten just meant that leaked information is not to be confused with official announcements. Those series are not yet officially announced. They will be once JUMP is officially released, which would be 5th November.

So while JUMP has not officially announced that REBORN! will end we have some information on the course it will most probably take. (That includes not only information from issue #48's cover and preview for the color pages in issue #50 but also the unofficially leaked information from an insider on 2ch! I think Zeromcd mentioned him some pages ago... [edit: yes, #219 of this thread])

Sorry if I'm mistaken, Kait.

When the new series announcements were posted to Mangahelpers (and livejournal) there had been no publicly available, sourced, official announcement. The preview page had not been posted yet. Sometimes, for new series, it is never posted. Technically the news will not be official until issue 49 goes on sale this coming Monday. The issue that preview was taken from is not yet on sale in Japan, but leaked to the internet along with pirated manga raws.

Alright, for those who still have their doubts about REBORN! I got my hands on a preview pic for issue #50:

Here's what it says:

Big Gathering of the REBORN! Characters!!
Super Massive Color Pages!!

So not only is it another CP in this short amount of time but they make a huge deal out of it. (Character Gathering & Volume of the CP)

What they meant is that the preview was already posted by Heiji in page 17of this thread and your post highly suggested that you missed it
Cancellation and serie are never officially announced as far as I know. All we have are the serious hint and the insider leak Mr Prince has linked above

So, it means its indirectly an announcment of the end of manga ?^^

At least this might mean that Assclass had more than 30K first printing unlike Saiki so I really wonder how much will it sell in it's first week and sad about Kurogane getting printed 4 times less than a series which is about to end in the following week or the one after it.

First print Volume comparative chart (One Piece, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter and Bleach).

Re: Weekly Shonen Jump [2012] - Discussion and TOC Talk - Part 4

I feel really sad for Sket Dance right now. Ass Class is on par with it and Nisekoi is beyond it already. At least in that one scenario (though it's probably a common trend among bookstores).
