How many volumes of the manga did they film?


The manga just had its 12th volume published in March 2009 and considering how open-ended the anime was I'm curious how many volumes they actually filmed. Does anybody know?

To answer my own question, the anime is based on the first 32 chapters of the manga, which can be found in the first 6 volumes of the paperback collections and the first half of the 7th volume.

Since there are 12 volumes out now, this means only half of the available story was animated.
