Bakuman Anime

For those of you who don't already know, Bakuman already has its own anime and is currently airing its 2nd season in Japan. However, the 1st season is already being dubbed and sold in the US by Media Blasters. In fact, the and volume comes out in the end of February. Given that Viz created a Bakuman anime section in the forum, do you think that they're planning on buying Bakuman from Media Blasters?

Probably not. Viz doesn't have the One Piece anime, yet there's a forum for it. No reason to think that they'll get the Bakuman anime just because they made a forum for it here.

Of course if Media Blasters goes under, I wouldn't be surprised if Viz did a license rescue.

even though VIZ doesn't have it right now, I hope they do.

I don't really care who has the licensing, I love watching anime more than knowing who's behind the scenes.
But I hope VIZ gets it, Media Blasters hasn't really censored the episodes.
