For the OOT game, they seemed to simplify the story more. The OOT manga seems to have more depth in the story....so I think Sheik is a guy in the manga, but a girl in the game. http://www.zelda-infinite.com/files/manga/...?chap=3&page=13 Although in that part they may be referring to her being a "boy" in disguse. So I don't really know.

Assuming from her age, as we can see, being compared to Link (in terms of height, and body build) she looks like she was a girl with a VERY tight bodice of some kind on. OoT Mange: Definitely boy in disguise. Refer to number four? of manga in which she explains to Link why she was hiding who se truly was, and why she disguised as a Sheika BOY. It's all confusing. Anything else, I dunno...

Whether Sheik is male or female doesn't really matter since Sheik is truly Zelda, and we all know Zelda is female. shrug I know the people who like yaoi like to believe that Sheik is a boy since they like Link with other males. . . Grah, its a very confusing topic, isn't it?

Freeze Time Group: Sage Posts: 925 Member No.: 8 Joined: 15-May 06	shudder Yeah, I believe you are right on that one! But I read through the OoT manga chapter where Zelda reveals herself to Link, and I started thinking about something. I think most people assume that when Zelda sent Link back in time to live out his seven years, they think that she stayed in the future. But from what it says in OoT manga, Zelda sealed away her consiousness for seven while she was Sheik, the same way Link was sealed away. So in a way, Zelda missed out on those seven years too. . . so maybe she sent herself back as well? Bleh, so confusing!

Otherwise it doesn't explain why there is a Zelda in Link's past. Because otherwise in the Ganondorf alternate future there must be another Link, and then...yeah.

I always thought Sheik was a girl in the game, until Ruto called him a he, then I was confused. . . I still think it might be a mistranslation. .. shrug

Freeze Time Group: Sage Posts: 925 Member No.: 8 Joined: 15-May 06	Meh, its okay! If I had been angry, I would have hit you over the head with something So it seems even Link isn't sure about Sheik, except to know that it is his beloved Zelda, no matter her form. MWAHAHAHAHA!! So I was RIGHT!! Take that all who oppose me!
