Taka ga Koi daro has been licensed by DMG.

Source:
Hi, I'm the official localiser for Taka ga Koi daro with the Digital Manga Guild. Licensed production has begun for this title, so I am requested that the scanlation sharing of this title via your group stop and the (Link removed) removed. I am asking so that the official licensed version has a better chance at achieving proper sales levels, as once your group produced the scanaltion of Aiso Tsukashi AFTER the licensed version was out, it severely affected sales and despite your polite requests, people DID upload elsewhere, which has taken many man hours to combat, with the knock on effect that sales remain depressed. This affects not only my livelihood and the English and Japanese publishers' profit margins, but the mangaka themselves as we all rely on the sales to pay our salaries and to fund other projects. Every person involved in producing the manga, mangaka included, were personally distressed enough by the catastrophic results that instructions went out to try to prevent this from happening ever again. I am certain that the results were not your intention, so on behalf of the mangaka, the publishers, and myself, I ask for your co-operation in this matter.


Regards,


Kimiko Kotani

I actually am DP (Scryren). I didn't see Takaga Koidaro listed as licensed so I figured I'd announce it with citations so people wouldn't think I was pulling the news out of thin air.

@Ratspootin - Thank you for the info. We cannot remove the links because we do not know who uploaded them. I deleted the link so others in this forum cannot download the files. Also, I searched the forum for Takaga Koidaro and the downloading links have been removed after the licensing announcement. I also checked if "Dangerous-2fck" is a member in this forum and nothing popped up.

The best thing to do is to inform Dangerous Pleasure, who scanlated the manga, to stop distribution in case they were not informed about the license.
