German Zelda Manga Collection

The Zelda Mangas from Akira Himekawa were all published by TOKYOPOP here in Germany. I knew that the Ocarina of Time mangas were released in 2009, but I just found out recently, that by now all the Zelda mangas are available. So I went to the local book store and bought them. All ten of them. At once. Well, there are two mangas for Ocarina of Time, two for Four Swords and two for the Oracle games. A Link to the Past, Majora's Mask, The Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass all got one volume each. TOKYOPOP made them all in the same design, which definitely looks nice in your book shelf. Here are some photos:




I've actually read most of them online before, so I more or less just bought them for my Zelda collection. But I guess it can't hurt to read them again. And I think reviewing all the mangas could be a nice feature for this blog, so I'll do that in the near future, one post per game. Akira Himekawa, which is a female duo of comic book artists, usually does a good job at turning the games' story into something readable. I especially liked how the Oracle mangas turned out. But of course using the mangas as a story guide or counting them as canon would be a terrible idea, these are just for your entertainment. And usually it feels weird to have Link act and talk...
