Now I know I'm sounding like good ole' Lucca here, but I have proof that link made it into our world and became a publisher of prints in mid 18th century Japan. You laugh? if I had a big kid blog i'd say hit the jump for dramatic effect but ah, I don't have a jump. So read on if you
dare.
I was flipping through a book of early japanese print art when i came across this very work, I captured it with a shitty digital camera and a hand unsteadied by excitement.
Very nice, no? But look closely, do you see it?
Oh snap. is it?
It
is
The publisher is Urokogata-Ya Hammato (anybody?) and the seal is the motherloving triforce.
I found two other prints in the book with the same seal, is it some kind of message from Link? If so, Link just made Davinci's code His Bitch.

That's awesome. Good find. I'm sure that the Zelda series must draw on local myths or stories but it'd be damn interesting to find out why it was used in that era and the Japanese interpretation of it.
