I need to check on/grabs the links for these:
- Akira Himekawa's Nintendo Dream Doodle Pages (Zelda & Mario)
- Some other Various Magazine Manga, Like the one with Ganon and WW Link at the table. The one from the very early magazine that I'm missing.
- People of Kakariko Village? Is that finished?
Being translated into languages other than English:
- Zelda II: Adventure of Link by Ran Maru into Russian
- Slayers All / Susan1n
Scanlations:
Finished translations that I need someone to clean and edit the text into. Please don't do these if you don't have really nice skills but feel free to start working if you do. Just send me an email at melorasworld@gmail.com so I can make a note of it here that someone is working on one so it's not getting done twice
- Hyrule Fantasy Children's Book
- I have some of the pages pretty heavily cleaned if you want to pick up where I've left off.
- Translation: historyofhyrule.blogspot.com/2021/05/
- Archival Scans
- CYOA: Adventure of Link
- I do not have scans of this made but I will do it if you are interested in adding the text to the pages I can get those done. The translations are below each image, here.
- Ranmaru Manga (English and Spanish)
- Redo Ataru Cagiva's 5 volumes. These have been done but they were done 20 years ago and don't look great.
