If it is only for sale in Japan I don't see the problem. People in Japan aren't going to want English translations, so it won't affect their sales in any way at all. Which is probably why the Japanese publishers don't care.
Viz is an American company that licenses Japanese publications for America. They may have the right to suppress the distribution of material that they own the rights to, but not anything else.
