So yeah, it's good to know we have a mangaka here who can plan ahead with an ending in mind. No point in dragging the story out *cough* Bleach *cough* or cutting it off abruptly, ruining the whole thing.
like Greyzone said, Cage of Eden ended because it wasn't doing well. I wasn't surprised to see it happen because all the shock factors became forced one trick pony half way in the manga to me and that gets old and boring. The pacing was way too slow for even small things to get revealed as well.

SnK reveal things slow, but Isayama does a good job of using lots of different ways to keep the audience engaged in the mean time. If he keeps up what he's done so far there's no way it'll end like Cage.
