Q: I have raws of this manga! Can I provide for Zama?

A: If so, please approach zamarinth for details.
Q: Is it okay if I post scanlations of Aitsu no Daihonmei outside of this community, like online manga reader sites?
A: No, according to zama's policy, the download links will remain in daihonmei ONLY. If you are downloading, please join the comm and then you may have access to locked posts.
Q: Why are you guys so strict about downloading and uploading?
A: This is because Aitsu no Daihonmei may be licensed by AnimateUSA as an e-Book. Moreover, this is a Libre shuppan title, where Libre has a 'direct licensing' right in the US. To put it simply, a title by Libre is pretty much already considered licensed since the first page of production.
Q: How far are we with the scanlations?
A: All 4 volumes and volume 5, chapter 1 have been scanlated so far. Volume 5 chapter 2 and 3 are both still unscanlated.
Q: After all these questions...where on earth are the scanlations?
