How to use it
Pick two arcs and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Emerald Witch arc against Black Butler opener to see the 23 to 4 gap. Then test Public School against Indian Butler to compare 19 chapters with 9.
The Emerald Witch row runs ch. 86-108 per the Wiki Last marker, though some anime guides cap it at ch. 107 over the underwater transition. The Blue Memory row closes the file at ch. 149 with the Faustian revenge pact. Later arcs including the Blue Revenge boarding school return stay out until their boundaries close. Yen Press English volumes collect the same chapters.
