New Doujinshi Added: Snow Fantasy
Just added Snow Fantasy, a 25 page Midna x Link doujinshi by Rio Akisaki. I have to admit, I wish that the doujinshi had more of Midna in her true-form. Her imp form seems a little strange. Either way, it's pretty cute, and the art is great! Check it out~

Triforce Tribute Gallery Show Going On Now!
Not long ago I mentioned a Zelda-only gallery show that was going down in Portland Oregon, well: it opened, and thanks to the wonderful Kimya, we have a great video showcasing the works there!
It's taking place at the Land Gallery and will be open through April 21st... if anyone else is lucky enough to go. (send us pics if you do!)
Most of the pieces have already sold. (If you don't know, that's what the little red-dot-stickers mean.) Kimya also told me that many more sold after she had taken the video.
You can find the show's tumblr, with more pictures, here: triforcetribute.landpdx.com. Here's their flickr with more images: Triforce Tribute at Land. And here's their shop for the show if you're interested in purchasing anything (or just want to look.) You might notice that, even though it just opened, almost everything has sold. Which is incredibly awesome for the artists and event organizers! I couldn't be happier. I hope it means more Zelda shows happen!
Which is your favorite piece? Mine is in the video, it's the triforce pieces with the boss images on them. I also love the next one I'm posting. I think I would have bought the original if it hadn't already sold.
Full Artist Info:
Allan Peters, Andrew Kolb, Always With Honor, Clifton Burt, Colin Ford, Cory Loven, Cory Schmitz, Dan Cassaro, Dane Overton, David Sizemore, Dolls For Friends, Doublenaut, Eric Coddington, Frank Chimero, Ian Whitmore, Jeffery Frankenhauser, Jennifer Daniel, Jez Burrows, Jolby, Lost & Found Dept., Meg Hunt, Mikey Mann, Olly Moss, Part & Parcel, Piasa, Peter Harp, Ross Bruggink, Ping Zhu,Scribble Tone, Script & Seal, Skinny Ships, Trevor Basset, Yehteh

Tons of doujinshi and comics: including translations and adult content
#1 Live Journal: I started the History of Hyrule LiveJournal. Please join us there!
#2 Adult Content Comics: Since there is an option on LJ to block adult content from young viewers, I'm going to be using it as the 18+ site as well. I've kicked it off by adding 3 adult doujinshi by Mio-Kun. To see them all you should need to do is join the group and be over 18. Please let me know if you have any problems, it's my first time using LJ groups and using the explicit content feature.
#3 Tumblr & Web-Comics: I've started a Zelda web-comic tumblr to work as a comic archive. It's simple: join us there if you like Zelda web-comics and submit any web-comics you find that are is missing from it! Since it's new, that means a lot are missing. Don't forget there's also the regular fanart and zelda tumblr.
#4 Tons of Translations: Speaking of other comics, Fujiappletan is amazing and has uploaded a ton of translations to their Tumblr (joouheika) and to the Hero x Princess LJ community. You really must check them out, they're awesome. Warning: Many are 18+ BUT they're very respectful in theme. Here are just some:
Title: Princess Agitha & the Grasshopper Swordsman by Yoko (Dim)
Translated and Edited by Fujiappletan
Title: "Zelda... I'm happy" by Warami
Slightly Mature in Theme and Language.

New Doujinshi Added: An Angel and a Devil
Spring has arrived on History of Hyrule thanks to Louisa's lovely art. The plan has been to have a layout for everything! Interested in making one? Then check this link out: http://historyofhyrule.com/information/help_layouts.php
As for content, here's a cute doujinshi from 2004 called "An Angel and a Devil" by Usagi Paradise. It features mostly Link and Dark Link, though you'll find a lot of other Ocarina of Time cameo's. Enjoy!

New Doujinshi Added: Vol 8: The Tale of God and a Man
This doujinshi, which is based on Ocarina of Time, is from 2002 and completes a very mature 8 part set that goes by the title "The Goddess Give A Cry." While the style is different, it will grow on you. The more work I read by this artist, the more I love them.
Like Louisa said here in the comments, "after almost ten years we discover there is another volume." Seriously. For almost 10 years we didn't know there was a volume 8, we thought it was a 7 part series. (find volume 1 here) No matter how much we stalked auction sites... we never saw it and, between us, she and I have been pretty dedicated when it comes to putting this collection together. But, hah! It did pop-up and I was lucky enough to be able to grab it, so here it is! Freshly arrived from Japan. ENJOY!
NSFW: It may not be safe for school depending on the country you are in. It's gory and there are a few pages that feature bare breasts, (it's not done in a sexual way though.)
Over the years there have been a ton of requests to see this series translated. I would LOVE for that to happen... but... the style or writing is complicated so I know it would be very difficult. But... if you would like to help pressure someone to translate it in, just leave a comment saying so on it on the forum.

New English translation for the doujinshi "Twilight no Gaki Daishou"
Translated by Rinael, Edited by JayEye, Localized by Cavalier, Scanned by Me, and with some back-up translation help from Brigette: "Twilight no Gaki Daishou" (The Bully of Twilight) is a cute, comical, and short doujinshi for Twilight Princess. Be sure to check it out! And, if you want to leave a comment on any of the publications, it would be awesome of you to utilize the forum for that! Thanks guys, and Enjoy!
And sorry for the lack of updates: my cold came back and I had a sick pet that needed hand-feeding. After that, of course I had to watch Mass Effect 3 from start to finish ;) BUT, I did get a lot scanned while watching that being played, so at least there should be a lot of new content in the coming days.

New Doujinshi Added: Hyrule Fantasy
It's actually one of the oldest doujinshi I've ever found, but an awesome one too. It's for Ocarina of Time, Link's Awakening, and A Link to the Past (There's even a page for LoZ and one for AoL.) It's really rare to find doujinshi for those last four. Check it out and enjoy! I know I did.
And, can anyone tell me who the artists are so I can list it properly? I have a guess for one of them, and it seems to say who all of them are~ I just can't read it.

Akira Himekawa's Animal Artbook
I knew about this thanks to Saphine helping me translate parts of Akira Himekawa's blog a while back, but I never thought about looking for it. Anyway, I finally looked, and here's the info on it! I was assuming it's an art book, but it sounds like it may just be illustrated short stories or even a manga. It's still for sale too, I'm just trying to save money right now. If anyone gets this, please think of us.. and maybe send a few pictures of the inside! ~Thanks!

Amazing Zelda T-Shirts and Books by Amazing Independent Artists
I was browsing around artist's galleries and found these, I love them!
First, we have some shirts from Fangamer, which also has other zelda items~ little buttons and such.
The site that started it was Cory Schmitz's flickr, he has a ton of cute zelda stuff tucked away in there. I knew I knew his art when I saw this Zine of his that is for sale. He has 2 right now, but he's promised a 3rd to complete the set.
He also has this kick-ass poster and this other book, which is just amazing looking, both of which are a part of his kickstarter campaign.
Enjoy! That's it for me for the night!
100 Zelda Doujinshi: Fully Scanned and Readable!
I can't believe there's already 100 scanned Zelda doujinshi posted, ...with more to come! Many are in English and other languages by the way. You can browse by things like language and artist.
I've been meaning to do this for a while, to make it easier for a broader range of people to browse what's readable on the site. Choose what works best for you:
. Find the flickr album here
. Or go to the Main Site
Publication's Section Highlights:
. help wanted
. all the zelda doujinshi we have
. . . doujinshi by language
. . . doujinshi by artist
. . . all the zelda doujinshi we don't have
. all the zelda comics I know of
(well, I have more web-comics to add)
. all the zelda 4koma I know of
. all the zelda books and novels I know of
. all the zelda manga I know of

Edit: January 23, 2024: I forgot to add this here but if you are 18+ years or older then I do have an archive site for pornographic adult doujinshi: https://zeldaporncomics.blogspot.com/ You could always find the link off of the main site but I buried it and made it hard to find on purpose. It's NSFW but the main page is pretty mellow and there's no pop-up or anything, it's just another ad-less blogger page like this one.

Server Outage
The main site is down, but at least it's got nothing to do with us this time. It's just the host: a typical glitch and nothing to worry about. They just have to get their servers running again and it will be back up.
In other news, I've been trying to get organized and to get back to people over the past 2 days. Will probably use tomorrow for that as well. I have a bunch of info to update on the main site too. So, until I have time for more, please check out the official art I've started to add to the temporary official art gallery on flickr, and go enjoy our tumblr! I queue up a bunch of art so there's always a steady stream of goodies to follow :) and then there are always more great stuff on our Facebook page!
And feel free to ask questions or make suggestions about what you would like to see!
