Dallas Middaugh, Director of Manga at Del Rey, said that if any titles licensed by Del Rey included color pages in their Japanese releases, those color pages will be included in the North American release. They admitted that not including the colorpages in Negima volume 1 was a mistake, and they have also comitted to not editing any of their releases. Starting with volume 3, Negima will no longer have the age rating sticker.
Del Rey will stick with its quarterly release schedule for its manga, however with the move from 4 to 6 and then 12 titles, they will be releasing more titles per month.
