Those could be the wrong model links on Amazon.co.jp

= = = =

The starting point for searching the correct files should be:
https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01FIG3SMC/ref=famstripe_km
That is the device we want the files for.

And in Japan, there is only one download page for both 4Gbyte and 32Gbyte models (it says so in the reading):
https://translate.google.com/transla...Id%3D201756220
or
https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/help/cus...deId=201756220

= = = =

As of today (6/9/2017), both the source file and the binary file for the 7th generation, manga model on Amazon.co.jp are identical URLs of the ones for the 7th generation non-manga model on Amazon.com.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/firmwaredow...te_5.8.9.2.bin
https://s3.amazonaws.com/kindledownl...9290002.tar.gz

Hmm...
Amazon might be doing some fun and games based on the source IP address.
Let me try the same again, only through a Japan proxy service.

Edit:
Nope, those are the same two files people in Tokyo get from Amazon.co.jp
