The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (Himekawa)

The Phantom Hourglass game-to-manga adaptation first appeared in Shougakukan Magazine in Japan, and was then collected into one volume and released separately in March, 2009. It is one of the many Zelda mangas by Akira Himekawa. The story follows the main framework of the game, but is shortened and simplified after clearing the Ghost Ship in the middle of the game. The main characters starring in the manga are truthful to the game; Link, the main protagonist, Linebeck, Ciela, Oshus, Tetra, and Bellum, the antagonist. Viz Media has been releasing English versions of Akira Himekawa's Zelda mangas into English, and an official English translation will join Himekawa's other works in North America this September.
