First Volume of The Legend of Zelda Manga Released

This article is from the first edition of The Video Game Librarian website I published between 2008 and 2010. It was originally written on October 22, 2008.

One of the first posts I ever made on this blog was about the announcement that the manga series based on The Legend of Zelda would be coming to America soon. It looks that time is now, as Akira Himekawa’s The Legend of Zelda: Volume 1 – Ocarina of Time: Part 1 was released on October 7.

Ocarina of Time: Part 1 retells the first half of the game’s story, and Link’s adventure will conclude in The Legend of Zelda: Volume 2 – Ocarina of Time: Part 2, which is set to be released on December 2.

Volume 3 (which will be based on Majora’s Mask) and Volume 4 (which will adapt Oracle of Seasons) are currently on track for a 2009 release.
