For seve♛ral decades, video games have transcended past their own medium through the likes of animated movies and TV shows, live-action movies, board games, 🐼card games, novels, and comic books - and even manga.
Plenty of JRPGs and other Japan-developed games have some kind of manga adaptation too, from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Kingdom Hearts, to the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Tales Series, to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Legend of Zelda, and more. But there is a lot of manga o🀅ut there, with so much of it being exclusive to Japan, that even the most dedicated fans of the🐼se may have no clue that manga based on their favorite games even exists.
8 Donkey Kong 🥀
In case you'd rather not hear Seth Rogen's voice or watch the old 1999 CG animated series, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Donkey Kong has a few manga series for you to read. Or he would if they were officially tran𝓀slated into English.
All of the Donkey Kong manga series may only be exclusive to Japan for now, but with the recent translations like Super Mario Manga Mania and Kirby Manga Mania, it will probably only be a matter of time until we see Donkey Kong get a manga mania volume, maybe aroun🔴d the time his next game is officially revealed.
7 Bomberman
While 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bomberman has been in the news more recently due♏ to online ga💜mes and crossover content, the character and franchise are much more prevalent in Japan, receiving several different manga adaptations.
The majority of Bomberman manga actually belongs to the Bomberman B-Daman series, based on the marble shooting B-Daman toyline which originally started with✅ Bomberman and led to the internationally released Battle B-Daman series. Several of the manga series also received anime adaptations. Bomberman may not have as much international popularity, but starting a toyline that led to a number of manga and anime adaptations is still impressive.
6 Code Vein
While the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dark Souls series has a comic book adaptation, it has yet to receive a manga. Souls-like title 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Code Vein, however, has a spin-off manga titled Code Vein: Memory Echoes that was released in Dengeki PlayStation Magazine in 2018, a year prio🐻r to the release of the game due to a long delay.
Code Vein: Memory Echoes follows partner NPC Louis Amamiya, also known as the Crimson Sword due to his unique weapon. It may not be directly related to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring or other Souls titles, but fans who enjoyed Code Vein might like it🍬, if they can read Japanese that is.
5 Fortnite
It may not be too surprising as it's one of the bigger games out there right now, but a manga based on Fortnite started releasing in CoroCoro not too long ago.
Starting as a short gag-manga and later becoming an ongoing series, it follows the main character, Vic Roy, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:who looks suspiciously similar t🍨o Naruto, and his dog Coro as they go on wacky adven♌tures throughout the world of Fortnite. It's shocking this manga has yet to get a translation with how popular Fortnite continues to be after several years, but maybe Vic Roy himself will be a playable character eventually.
4 Ninjala
While Ninjala may not be as familiar to some as games like Fortnite or fellow Nintendo-exclusive series Splatoon, it still has a massive amount of worldwide popularity. Due to this, it seems it was only a matter of time before it received a manga adaptation in CoroCoro, funnily enough alongside manga adaptations of the two aforeme✤ntioned titles.
The gum-wielding Ninjas from the world of Ninjala may not have quite the same appeal that other characters do, but they're surprisingly more popular tಌhan one might expect.
3 Final Fantasy XIV🐲 ꦕ
One of the most popular MMOs in the world, it makes sense that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Final Fantasy 14 would have a manga related to it. This particular manga, 🍬however, does not adopt the game's storyline.
Lalafell-Sensei Will Teach You instead follows a new character appropriately named Beginner as he learns everything he needs to know when first starting the game, while also making sure ꧙not to listen to false information from Lalafell-sensei. Once again, this manga has never been officially translated, but with all the new content since it was first released it would be funny to see how more characters react.
2 Dragon Quest Monster🀅s
While not quite as popular as the series it spun off from or the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Quest: Adventure of Dai manga that came before it, Dragon Quest Monsters Plus is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:based on the original Dragon Quest Monsters game.
Set after the events of the game, the manga stars Kleo, who is recruited by a creature named Watabou to help save the kingdom of GreatTree. Unlike many other Dragon Quest manga s♐eries, Dragon Quest Monsters Plus has an official English translation that is available both physically and digitally, so curious f💙ans don't have to look too hard to find it.
1 ꦐ Jump Super Stars
Written by Yusuke Murata, creator of Eyeshield 21 and illustrator of the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:One Punch Man manga, Jump Super Stars is a manga b💙ased on a 💟video game of the same name based on other manga.
In said manga, Sena from Eyeshield 21 gets pulled into the world of the game after finding a mysterious golden Nintendo DS in a club room at his school. Like the game it's based on, it unfortunately never got an official translation, but maybe there will be another tie-in manga with the next Shonen Jump crossover😼 game.
