It seems to me that she's winding down towards an ending. (Currently at ch. 72)
All of the major players seem to have been introduced, lots of information about the philosopher's stone has been revealed...
I wouldn't think that it would go over 100 chapters, but who knows for sure (other than Arakawa-san, of course)? That's just speculation on my part.

if it went over 100 chapters, there could be a 100 comic special!!!

(an extra chapter!.....lol)

I want to know if she'll tell Scar's real name........I knew the anime never told, but they didn't know. (but I was still like "forum info, please be wrong!!!!!" when Lust asked him what his name was)

100 chapters would be quite long for FMA actually. Since each chapter is about 40 pages, twice the usual for manga, which is about 20 pages. So by average standard that could be seen as 200 chapters.

@.@ Wow.

I wonder how she got permission to have such long chapters? I would think there would be page limits, at least in the original magazine releases.

'Cuz she kicks ass?
Who knows, but I'm sure not complaining. Waiting a month for a 20 page chapter would be sooo much worse than waiting for the 40 page ones. As it stands, at least I feel I'm getting my time's worth. (And I thought waiting a week for the episodes to be released was bad, ugh. I had no idea. Cliffhanger on this last chapter was just evil...)

I haven't read for awhile, I'm sure I got a new chapter or 2 to read....should do that.

Oi. And I have to wait for the books to come out. I think the last volume I read was 12.

And I have no idea when the library is going to get the next volume.

eep.

going to the library is like going through your friend's friend's friend. you never know if you're missing pages, and it takes forever.

I buy, but the store I usually go to is behind as well, so I only own 1-12 (*does random math* 12x$10=........$120.........thank goodness I didn't buy them all at once....)

I think the other bookstore that my friend goes to has up to around 14, 15 maybe? (I'm not really sure)
