There are no details on a release date or whether or not it will release in English immediately when it’s ready, but stay tuned. Here is the information courtesy of Crunchy Roll.

Akira Himekawa’s official Twitter account and the January 2012 issue of Nintendo Dream magazine revealed yesterday that now Himekawa, a duo of female manga artists, are working on a new manga adaptation of the popular game franchise The Legend of Zelda. The manga is loosely based on the newest game The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. This is the 11th Zelda manga adaptation by Himekawa.

The magazine published the 2-page interview with Himekawa on page 100 and 101. They announced the manga will be published by Shogakukan in near future and introduced two rough sketch pages from the up-coming manga.

The female manga duo have drawn 10 volumes of The Legend of Zelda manga so far. Their manga series have been sold more than 1 million copies in Japan and at least more than 500,000 copies in North America, according to Nielsen Bookscan.
