User blog:Reyder Dister/Rave Master and Fairy Tail / Anime and Manga

So, since both RM and FT Animes are paused and most probably will never go on, let's talk how far they came.

RM:

Manga: ~300 Chapters

Anime: 51 Episodes (first 95 chapters)

Longest arc: Blue Guardians/Makai arc

Main Team: Rave Warriors

Major Enemies: Oracion Six, Doryu's Ghost Attack Squad, Onigami Forces and Blue Guardians.

Major Antagonists: King, the Oracion Six Generals, Doryu, Ogre, Hardner, Shakuma, Lucia

Some Teams: Guardians of the Gate (non-humans), Onigami Forces (onis), Doryu's Ghost Squad (seemingly humans), Imperial Guardians (seemingly humans), Blue Guardians (seemingly humans), Four Demon Gods (demons)

Character Death Rate: Not very big at the start, but has grown since the Tower of Din arc. Has lots of "Deceased" or "Unknown" from the enemy teams.

FT:

Manga: ~535-700 Chapters

Anime: 277 Episodes (first 419 chapters)

Longest arc: Alvarez Empire arc

Main Team: Fairy Tail

Major Antagonists: Jellal, Faust, Ultear, Hades, Zeref, Acnologia

Some Teams: Element 4, Trinity Raven, Thunder God Tribe, Oracion Seis, Edolas Generals, Seven Kin of Purgatory, Garou Knights, Nine Demon Gates, Spriggan 12

Character Death Rate: Small at the start, grew in the Tower of Heaven arc, then in the Grimoire Heart arc, then in the Tartaros arc and also in the Alvarez Empire arc. Since Grimoire Heart we see "Deceased" and "Unknown" also quite often.

Also both use the "Former antagonists joining the Heroes" quite often (because of lots of characters).
