About the Kamudo Manga Volume 2

From the artists behind The Legend of Zelda manga comes a brand-new fantasy adventure!

Before humans claimed their place in history, the skybound paradise of Hinoaruchi was ruled by demi-beings under the watch of Ryujinkyo’s demi-dragons. Now, as prophecy firetells a turbulent new age, will the birth of Kamuna, the first human child, bring disaster or salvation?

Kamuna struggles to find his place among the demi-dragons during his ryuken training. As shadows stir beyond the borders of Ryujinkyo, an incursion by demi-leopards shatters the fragile peace, and a power buried deep within Kamuna begins to awaken… Akira Himekawa is a manga artist duo consisting of two women, A. Honda and S. Nagano. They began creating manga together in 1987, made their professional manga debut in Weekly Shonen Sunday in 1991, and together have created ten manga adventures based on the popular video game series The Legend of Zelda. Kamudo is their first serialized manga available in both Japanese and English at launch.
