I think the wording of the note in the description has everyone confused...
"Note: There are no english scanlations of this manga. The chapters on the net are the official YenPress chapters. As long as they are in publication they are not allowed on MangaDex."
What everyone seems to think this means: No English scanlations are allowed because it has been licensed in English.
What I believe is actually meant: As per MangaDex rules, you may not upload official chapters if the publisher is still distributing said chapters. All English versions that MangaDex staff have seen either uploaded here or on other sites have been either direct rips from the official release, or have used the official translation/script, and are thus disallowed on MangaDex. If a scanlation team should take the raws, translate them, then use those translations in their unofficial release, those chapters will be released. However, as the English release day is the same as the Japanese release day, and people are simply ripping those official chapters and uploading them to other sites, no team has bothered to scanlate them, so stop uploading the official releases here.
I could be wrong, in which case section 2 of the rules should probably be rewritten... However, considering plenty of other licensed series--including some translated and published by the same company such as "I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level" and one of the Goblin Slayer spinoffs-- have chapters available here, I really don't think I am wrong...
