Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

[masamuneehs]

I wonder what this is like for the Manga Artist. He knows how many episodes in the anime are left, has an idea how many chapters remain in the manga.

If the mangaka is any sort of a serious author, he knows precisely how and when his story will end.

If I was the mangaka, I wouldn't care or feel pressured by the anime. He's the author of the manga, and it's what he'll be remembered for.

i, for one, hope that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiromu_Arakawa will be remembered for being female, though SHE seems pretty set on the image of a cow wearing glasses.
