OMG YAAAY! Maybe it'll get a proper printed release now!

I'd be down with that. I saw the anime from Right stuf's release and loved it, I'd definitely buy the manga

I'm not too familiar with Digital Manga, but they normally focus on boys love right? Interesting. Also, interesting timing given the recent Answerman question/discussion.

I would totally be down with this. I'd much prefer a print release though.

Nice! And timely too considering how it's ending soon. Hopefully that means we'll get the complete collection here too.

How are the DMGuild stuff published? Print? or eManga (epub, pdf, etc)?

If it's the Digital Manga Guild? Chances are we're never going to get a print release. The DMG only does eBooks through eManga, Amazon, and B&N.

The fact that this just finished being scanlated means they can steal the scanlation for profit!

Yeah, I have little respect.

This isn't anything new. They've listed it for awhile (at least February of this year). I guess someone just now noticed. Unless DMG specifically says they have the rights (not just their list) I would be cautious in getting hopes up. I would point out that people thought they had Dousei Ai, which Jmanga had as well, and recently answered on Twitter that they indeed do not have Dousei Ai. https://twitter.com/MadeofAwesomeCG/status/326458141355171840

Another one I wonder about is the BL, Doukyuusei by Asumiko Nakamura and it's Graduate sequel that is also listed by DMG.

But, they did recently release Takako Shimura's Happy Go Lucky Days.

*Brings out tiny violin*

I have little interest in e-manga myself, but I would like to read this. Since DMP isn't printing much but H manga these days, I don't see it making it to print.

Well, assuming they did get the license, if the scanlators submit their work then they'd be paid for it too.

They recently (maybe last year? I'm not sure) also started translating a lot of straight hentai titles. And by a lot I mean licensing as many as possible, I think they have releases lined up for the next two years. It seems to be a pretty successful line for them as well. spoiler[Probably because they're not pissing off the buyers and original scanlators with cease-and-desists to the point of them boycotting their licensed titles this time around]
