That's actually quite small for shoujo. Marmalade boy had 76 episodes made out of measly 8 volumes of material. If ordinary shows use ~1.25 chapter /episode, with say three times more material per chapter in Skip Beat and 125 chapters out right now - you get something along the line of 300 episodes. Now throw in the time required to air them, and guess how many chapters will come out during that time .

but how many Shojo shows out there have over 100 episodes?
Kirarin Revolution has more than 100 and is still churning them out.

More importantly, two Fushigiboshi no Futago Hime series make up in total 103 episodes so this studio has experience in making long-running shoujo anime and can probably find the funds necessary.
