I've been hoping that FUNi would stream/simulcast Fairy Tail for a while now, since it's ongoing and all. I wonder what the chances for that are.. I know TV Tokyo isn't giving proper streaming rights to anyone it seems. Just look at Crunchyroll, they only have like 4 or 5 episodes available at a time, and they're all premium. I consider it annoying since I'd like to see more of the series, past the point that FUNi is dubbing, and be able to watch it from the beginning if I wanted to rewatch. So, what do you guys think? I have a feeling a good bit of you would like to see the show simulcasted.

Chance of FUNi licensing for streaming/simulcast?

I always thought the reason CR had so few episodes was because of FUNi's license. I thought they had additional episodes on funimation.com, but I guess that isn't the case.
I don't really think the license of one company affects the other, especially if they both paid for whatever they were wanting to stream. And yeah, they just have season one available right now. Season two soon enough.

@EyeOfPain - yeah CR has always had the 4 episode thing before FUNimation ever got the rights to Fairy Tail.
I still think it'd be pretty cool for FUNi to simulcast Fairy Tail like they do One Piece. But, they won't do it if it won't make them any money, as is with everything.
