About the peer-review process
The journal uses single-blind peer review. All submitted manuscripts are sent to two anonymous referees who evaluate them for originality, validity, novelty, methodology, correct citation of relevant work, and the importance of content and conclusions.
The time required for review depends on the referee response – usually within about 3 months. In the rare cases where this process takes longer, this may be due in part to difficulty in finding a second referee.
When reviews are completed, authors the receive referees’ comments and a decision of acceptance, conditional acceptance with minor revisions, revision and resubmission due to the need for major revisions, or nonacceptance.
Revised manuscripts are returned to the initial referees, who may request further revision. Once referees receive and confirm the manuscript, they make a final decision on acceptance or nonacceptance. This decision is then reported to the authors.

Discount and Waiver Policy
Discounts and waivers for article processing charges (APC) are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, with priority given to authors affiliated with institutions in countries eligible for the Research4Life program (https://www.research4life.org/access/eligibility). In cases of demonstrated financial hardship, the journal will consider a pre-submission application for a discount or waiver from the corresponding author.
The application can be submitted via our online system, Fujipress Manuscript Manager, by filling out the relevant field at the time of submission. (Alternatively, the application can also be addressed directly to the Editorial Office via email at 
). Please note that applications cannot be submitted after the peer review process has commenced.
Applications are reviewed by the Editorial Office of Fuji Technology Press, based on the quality of the research article (including, but not limited to, formatting and presentation, English proficiency, cited literature, and scope) and the authors’ financial circumstances. The final decision rests with the Editorial Office, not with the Editor or Editorial Board, ensuring editorial independence.
Your ability to pay will not influence the editorial peer review outcome.
Please note that discounts or waivers cannot be granted based on Research4Life eligibility if the paper includes authors from non-Research4Life countries. For example, in the cases where the corresponding author is from a Group A institution, and co-authors are from a Japanese institution (a non-Research4Life country).
