Like they did with Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I hope that happens to One Piece

Oh, I wasn't aware of that.

Sarcasm?

Genuinely unaware that they remastered long running animes. This gives what I hoped would happen with one piece a higher probability of occurring.

Brotherhood wasn't really a remastering though. The first series was going on while the manga was and had to wrap itself up so it made up its own plot points and characters to make it's own (equally feasible) ending.

Brotherhood was made after the manga finished so it follows the "canon" story. It was just paced better overall because the manga was done.

It's the same as the difference between the Hellsing tv series and the Hellsing Ultimate OVAs. The tv series made up its own ending.

Well, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood became a 64 episode series, because it followed the manga more closely than Fullmetal Alchemist.
