Not at all, fairy tail for its generic blandness and over reliance on shonen trope plot points is still far better from a plot/narrative point of view then sao.
They upscale fairy tail to blu ray and release it as a premium thing, they don't do the same treatment for One Piece. They DO however do that treatment with dbz/kai. Take that how you will

i remember being snapped at for bringing up the possibility of a fairy tale for one piece swap
both series hover around mediocre-good overall imo, one piece just has higher highs
I really don't see this being Adult Swim's relationship with One Piece at all.
Some of this One Piece talk makes me wonder if they've already started having conversations with Funi about the next major arc. I'm assuming that depending on the overall ratings, they might renegotiate costs to keep the show on the air.
It's still doing well and I hope it continues to air on Toonami, but with it consistently performing worse than all other long running shows on the block, my guess is that serious discussions about its future on the block are or will be had.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Jotaro and SD Dio hadn't been animated yet, and this game draws from the anime as opposed to the JSS series which drew from the manga.
J-Stars even calls the series "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure The Animation" when talking about what series Jonathan and Joseph are from.
I bet Jotaro will totally be in the next game if there is one.
Well, when that douche from programming comes around and says, "We've run the numbers and Fairy Tail will outperform One Piece in any timeslot so replace it" he won't really have a choice.
Loving the series and how it does in the ratings are two completely different things. He'll probably fight for it, but even then if Adult Swim and/or advertisers don't want to pay for it based on ratings, then we'll get something else. That's why I think dependent on current ratings for the show, they might end up needing to renegotiate costs and Funi might not bite or offer up something else to replace it.
The problem is that Fairy Tail likely beats it in ratings in ANY timeslot.
Which is fine depending on how much they are spending on the show itself and how many advertisers they can keep around that late at night.
Her thing like falling for Luffy? I am surprised anyone would fall for him.
Also, this Ace dude eat the Sun Sun fruit?
Ace ate the Flame Flame Fruit. He is a fire Logia.
Here are some manga charts for the US:
Top Manga Properties Fall/Holidays 2013
Top Manga Properties Fall/Holidays 2014
Fairy Tail ranks higher than One Piece there. Dunno anywhere to find anime sales, though.

Considering that Demarco thinks One Piece isn't as popular due to its art style and length, I seriously doubt they'll ever replace it with its

I don't think the anime is a good adaptation at all. Any joy I get from the anime is due to association and even then a lot of iconic moments from the manga end up being flaccid in the anime, Marineford is pretty much the embodiment of this. My ideal situation regarding the anime isn't for a Kai version but for another studio entirely being given the reigns to adapt it; probably Madhouse considering how good Ippo, HxH and Black Lagoon turned out.
For the most part, I have to agree. Games especially. My only stake is the amount I paid for the game. If the game is good, I don't really care if it sold well or not. The only time I do care is when I suddenly have the stake of "this game sold terribly and now the sequel will never get green-lighted", but besides for that, a thing being "slightly popular and profitable" vs "best selling of all time" does nothing for me other than suddenly having to hear all my friends talk about how this now interesting series which has actually been around forever is now a thing they'll be talking about every release with me. Which can be cool, but it can also be very annoying, depending on the product.

No they would just cut the block down to 2.5 hours. This isn't the 90s anymore AS isn't going to tell them what to air just when they can air it.
Can I just take a minute to say how happy I am One Punch Man is made by Madhouse?
So happy.

J-Stars is pretty clunky, but I love the fan service. Also Seiya is really good from who I've played with so far. My PSN is chicagocubsfan if anyone wants to play online sometime.
Wait.... now I really don't understand Funi's channel. They have to pay to air their own licensed properties?
I do believe it is.

I just found out through my Buddy that an arcade near me has the Japanese versions of Initial D and Midnight Tune. I know where I'll be spending my summer!
I guess he got stuck in the lab.

As far as I can tell the spoiler gifs don't work on mobile as the gif in question just showed up, I also have gifs turned off so they only appear when I click them on mobile so I really dunno what happened.

I'm on my phone and the gif spoilers work fine for me.
