The announcement noted that Shikke and the Mellow Kiss magazine are working on an official translation for the manga.
The announcement noted that Shikke’s works have been uploaded without authorization “countless times” on “illegal pirated websites” as well as Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok.
Manga creator Shikke announced on their Twitter account on October 16 that they have canceled the second chapter of their Pink Heart Jam boys-love manga due to the manga appearing with unofficial English translations on various websites.
The manga centers on a college student named Haiga who wants to get closer to fellow student Kanae after seeing him play his guitar.
