Wait wait, what the Loz sibling manga?

oh god i want to say it was one of the early NES promo mangas. iirc it was by mishouzaki?? it was legitimately batshit insane. they obviously hadnt figured out like. ANY lore whatsoever at that point and im not entirely sure that mishouzaki ever actually. played the game. or even read the manual. so the triforce functioned as like. a typical 80s manga space-weapon almost and zelda wore like a mech suit at one point and link experienced actual in-universe racism multiple times and at the end of the manga it's revealed that link and zelda are half-siblings because zelda's mother CHEATED ON HER HUSBAND

#'my daddy just HATES elves so he can never know that we're together' --zelda's mother in that manga genuinely for real #WHILE ACTIVELY MARRIED TO ANOTHER HUMAN MAN. BTW #link also got like kicked out of a hotel at one point for being a racial minority and then the daughter of the hotel owner like.#virgin mary-ed him and was like well you can sleep in. our stable. with the horses.#and anyway. link's dad/queen zelda's elven bootycall was named rune in the prologue of that and i liked it. so #i dont. remember where i read it actually because it's DEFINITELY never been officially translated #but it was definitely a part of the obscure zelda media research kick i got on like 1.5 years ago for the purposes of a slideshow #that ended up being over 2 hours long. it was one of the crazier manga that i found but i still think quark topp has gotta be the best #asks #update: i just googled this and the zelda wiki describes it as 'a manga following the original the legend of zelda storyline.'#which. may i be the first to say. no the fuck it does not #that manga is legend of zelda in that there are characters named link and zelda in it. it doesnt even PRETEND to follow the game plot
