What channel is bamboo blade on?(I have comecast and live in California)?

your best bet is probably, reading the manga or watching it online, instead of waiting for it to be on TV.
also there are only 26 episodes to it, and the manga is normally more detailed and usually when a manga is adapted to a anime it leave out a lot of the story/side stories/ funny stuff as well ending the story in a way that its not able to continue.

personally i haven't watched the series but have experience your problem with other anime i hope this helps.
