I contacted Kodansha US about translating the manga and they responded back!

Eri Sakai has no plans for another follow up, but she said she might make one if "there is a film adaptation", though I think she meant if there was another season or something.

Here are the text-only translations for chapters 2 and 3 of Ikuji-Hen:

I translated these from the French version. They're releasing the chapters one-at-a-time digitally right now, on a weekly basis it looks like. Chapter 4 is supposed to be out on the 16th.

How far along are you with the other chapters? Don't mean to rush you. Take your time.

Eri Sakai teases a new project. Can't guarantee that it's Kentaro related however.

Eri Sakai reaffirms that she is working on her next project. She stated that her "income is gone". With writers and actors currently on strike, I wonder, is she earning any money from the He's Expecting Netflix series?

Kodansha USA is releasing an English version of volume 1 under the title "He's Expecting" digitally on November 7.

Nice, it may not be a physical copy, but it’s great nonetheless! Hopefully they’ll make a physical copy if it’s does well in sales!

Here is the official English cover.

I’m glad that they took my request seriously! Plus they did it rather quickly too, I requested a translation in February!

Sorry for the delay, text translations for Ikuji-Hen Chapter 7 & 8:

No problem! Thanks!

Now that those particular chapters are translated, I'm glad to see that it is confirmed that Kentaro and Aki are now in love with each other. Also, it seems to be implied that the thought of having another child with each other seems to turn them on. Weird :/
