About this converter
Fruits Basket has no official arcs, so this page compares eleven editorial story blocks from ch. 1 to ch. 136. The council block runs 11 chapters and stands as shortest here. The finale block runs 17 chapters and stands as longest here. Eight blocks run exactly 12 chapters each, which shows the steady yearbook pace of Natsuki Takaya's run. Counts come from Hakusensha volume tables that map all 136 chapters to 23 books. The full run closed in 2006, so this table covers the complete story.
How to use it
Pick two blocks and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Finale block against Council block to see the 17 to 11 gap. All rows use Chapters, so the unit stays fixed. Click any table row to load it as Entry A with amount 1.
Hakusensha publishes no official arc names, so labels here are story blocks with exact ranges pinned. Fan guides use broad year labels instead of arcs, and this page cuts finer so each block stays near one school term. TOKYOPOP and Yen Press English books collect the same chapters, so English readers can map blocks to volumes. No new chapters change this complete table.
