FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST and TSUBASA CHRONICLES ALIKE?

Hi all.

I know what all of you must be thinking. Fullmetal Alchemist and Tsubasa Chronicles are poles apart. But what is it that is common among the two? Well, this might be rare, but the length of these two animes is quite the same.

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is an ongoing series about two brothers who lost all that they had, even their bodies after performing Alchemical taboos. Now they are on a journey in the search philosopher’s stone which holds the power to revert their mistakes. It’s a remake of Fullmetal Alchemist and has telecasted only 5 episodes as yet and is being telecasted almost around the world including South-East Asia, India, Japan, Australia and the U.S.A. The anime’s first production had telecasted 51 episodes and 1 full-length movie, 5 OVAs along-side a lot of merchandise. The original manga still continues with 21 volumes having been released.

On the other hand, Tsubasa Chronicles is the love story of Sakura and Syaoran, who are journeying with Fye and Kurogane to retrieve Sakura’s feathers which holds a part of Sakura’s soul and memory each. Without them, Sakura shall die. It had all begun when Syaoran, Sakura, who is a princess, is a childhood friend of Syaoran and now the latter needs to bring back Sakura’s feathers who journeys along with Fye and Kuogane. It’s an ongoing Manga and Anime, with manga having released 23 volumes and the anime having 2 seasons and 3 OVAs. However, the 2 season and OVAs haven’t concluded the story as yet.

At the conclusion of Volume 23, on the last page of Chapter 182, the authors of Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle announced the manga was entering its final arc. It is expected that Tsubasa and its sister publication, xxxHolic will end prior to the 2009 publication of Clamp's new shōjo manga.

But what matters is that the FMA manga has not concluded and is expected to run longer and the TC manga is still running. And since the FMA remake will closely follow the story of the manga this time, unlike the first production, is it possible for even FMA:B to outrun 2 seasons, that is almost 50 episodes just like TC? In that case FMA:B should be telecasted for longer than a year. Who knows, maybe that might just happen…
