“Despite the support and enjoyment of the anime by our readers, a business practice that does not benefit the manga artist has persisted. I felt obligated to remain silent until the issue was resolved, and I apologize to the readers who have supported me as a manga artist for this extended period.”

Due to non-payment of royalties, the author had even contemplated pulling the anime and its related songs from streaming platforms during the dispute.

However, earlier this year, Ai reached out to the Ganma! editorial department and Comic Smart to investigate the matter.

By the end of August, they calculated the amount owed and transferred the full payment to her.
