Finally.

I hope they get the complete rights to Blue Exorcist (Dub and R1 release). The manga is amazing and this series honestly deserves to be the next Fullmetal Alchemist (easiest comparison due to the Adjective Noun name structure).

Bah, I haven't even gotten around to seeing Darker than Black yet, but somehow this sounds much better, more reminiscent of Fullmetal Alchemist. Yeah, I might actually stream this one!

Shueisha has been one of VIZ's parent companies since they started the domestic Shonen Jump magazine. As such, they are involved in some way with pretty much all domestic Shonen Jump anime releases since the mag launched, either by releasing it themselves, or by crosspromoting with their partners [which is why in the mag you'll often see articles or the latest Funimation One Piece streams/dvd's or 4Kids YuGiOh broadcasts].

The media division of their other japanese parent company Shogakukan [who helped launch VIZ 25 years ago] has a nice chart explaining how it's all connected right here http://www.shopro.co.jp/english/index.html [though I'm guessing how much involvement they have depends on the given title]
