===Proposed Alternative High Level Relationship===
This is here for discussion as a simpler relationship structure to see if it can withstand debate.
=====Manga=====
* Manga has_one Publisher
* Manga is_one [ Magazine | Doujin | Novel ]
* Manga has_many Volumes (at least one)
* Manga has_one Release (likely a year)
* Manga has Relationships to other related Manga just like Animes do.
=====Volume=====
* Volume has_one Manga
* Volumes has_many Chapters (at least one)
=====Chapter=====
* Chapter has_one Volume
* Chapters may_have_many Anime (aid)
Any "entry" has a minimum of 1 row in all three columns in order to be in the system.
For example say Naruto chapter 9000 was released in JUMP, NarutoFanMag and the actual Naruto Manga later. 
This would be 3 manga entries, 3 volumes and 3 chapters entries in the database.  This seems much easier as well as intuitive to the user.  Just because a Chapter contains the same story in 3 different publications doesn't mean it needs to be the same row.  It is a different physical object that just happens to have the same data (the likely won't be identical in many of the common cases).
