Q: Why won't you do any hentai manga?
A: There are two reasons:

Q: When will <manga title> be released?
A: MangaProject does not give out Estimate Time of Arrival on releases. We have seen other groups make the mistake of doing that and not delivering the release until months after the predicted date or sometimes the release never happens at all. We do not want to set a date on any release... doing that will encourage people to think they can keep asking dates of releases.
Q: Someone has bad mouthed / said something wrong about MangaProject on a Message Forum.
A: We encourage our users and fans NOT to post back a reply. Responding back will only lower you and the image of MangaProject's fans to the level of the person who started the post. MangaProject is not interested in "The Manga Scene" and their delusional ethics.
