Togashi writing directly for the anime was the first thing that popped into my head, TBH, as strange as it sounds. It would certainly be less work for him than the manga, at least in theory. It certainly shouldn't be anything overtly negative, first off because the show is very successful and second because SJ wouldn't be calling attention to it if it was. It's most likely the "shocking" news that it's taking a season off and then running for another year, or something more or less expected.
