Numerous '''manga based on ''The Legend of Zelda'' series''' have been published. {{Wp|Manga}} are comics created in Japan and typically, but not always, span multiple chapters or issues. There have been many different manga based on {{TLoZ|-}} created by multiple authors, mostly following the plot lines of various games, albeit often with condensed plots, the introduction of new characters, and occasionally the addition of original side-stories. The manga adaptations are generally considered to be non-canon to the games.

'''Manga''' (Hiragana: まんが; katakana: マンガ) is the Japanese word for "comic". Outside of Japan, the term refers to comics made in Japan. There have been several mangas for {{TLoZ|Series}}, mostly following the plot lines of various games, with some slight differences. Some of these would include that [[Link]] seen speaking, new characters are added, and different places are visited. It should be noted that these stories are not considered canon by many fans for those reasons, however, in interview from 2004 Eiji Aonuma supported Akira's mangas since her stories fill gaps that weren't explained well in the game.{{fact}} Interestingly, Akira's mangas influenced Eiji into creating the [[Rito]] race.{{fact}}

The vast majority of {{TLoZ|-}} manga were only published in Japan and do not see release in English or other languages. Most {{TLoZ|-}} manga released in English have been the adaptations by [[Akira Himekawa]], along with the {{ALttP|Ishinomori}}.{{Note|Shotaro Ishinomori's ''A Link to the Past'' manga was originally created for and serialized in the North American magazine {{Wp|Nintendo Power}}, and can be considered to be an {{Wp|original English-language manga}}. It was eventually released in Japan following its completion.}}
−
Many of these mangas are available only in Japan, however, Viz Media released [[Akira Himekawa]]'s complete manga collection in English within the United States and Canada. The manga collection was also released as a [[The Legend of Zelda Manga Box Set|box set]] on October 25, 2011. Due to the fact that Viz Media published these mangas within their Viz Kids divison, certain scenes were removed as a form of censorship within their translations. Himekawa's manga based on {{SS}} was released as part of {{HH}}.

Revision as of 00:29, 11 June 2019

Numerous manga based on The Legend of Zelda series have been published. Manga are comics created in Japan and typically, but not always, span multiple chapters or issues. There have been many different manga based on The Legend of Zelda created by multiple authors, mostly following the plot lines of various games, albeit often with condensed plots, the introduction of new characters, and occasionally the addition of original side-stories. The manga adaptations are generally considered to be non-canon to the games.

The vast majority of The Legend of Zelda manga were only published in Japan and do not see release in English or other languages. Most The Legend of Zelda manga released in English have been the adaptations by Akira Himekawa, along with the A Link to the Past comic by Shotaro Ishinomori.[note 1]
