Reading the Encyclopedia I had discovered there is a Kingdom Hearts manga. I suposed reading the titles it follows the history of the original videogame, but even this I want to read it.

Anyone has read it, or just knows something could interest me?? Or...First of all, is it published out of Japan yet?? It's good to recommend? I'd really liked the game (just it was too short), and i'm interested in trying this manga... Very Happy

Yes, there is a manga being published in Japan, but it hasn't been released in english yet. Considering there isn't much interest in Kingdom Hearts these days, it probably won't get liscenced - at least until KHII.

However, there are scanslation sites - I know I've seen at least one version of it.

It's had a thread before, I just can't take the time to look it up right now. Anyway, it's a really cute kid manga produced by Disney of Japan. The chapters are extremly short, it pretty much follows the videogame word for word, and the art isn't bad. It's good if you're a fan of the videogame and have time to kill. The first volume has been published in Japan, and I don't know at the moment if they've gotten anymore out.

As for there not being much intrest in Kingdom Hearts these days, I disagree. The first game is a couple years old, but it has a giant fan following, and I do believe KH2 was one of the most anticipated previews at E3 this year. People just love that game.

Well....Then, I'm sorry, I didn't knew there was a thread done yet. Anyways, I think I know now what I just wanted to know. If it's published yet, I agree with you that probably would have an opportunity when it cames KH2. We must just wait...

And for "chibis". I don't know if the kind of drawing is for kids or if it doesn't. I don't think it can be a problem, I have read some really strange-drawn mangas. I supose I'll give it an opportunity.

Nothing else, I don't want to repeat any kind of topic is talked about it yet.
