Story
Kingdom Hearts (manga)
The first series was based on Kingdom Hearts. It was released in four separate books and was translated to English by TOKYOPOP. Unlike the other mangas, the first manga was flipped to be read left to right, while the others remained right to left. The series was re-released in three volumes in Japan in December 2006 as "Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix".

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (manga)
The second series was based on Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. It was released in two chapters and translated to English by TOKYOPOP and into German by Egmont Manga & Anime. The Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories Manga has a much lighter tone than that of the game.

Kingdom Hearts II (manga)
The third series was based on Kingdom Hearts II. This series was discontinued after five volumes in Japan, Germany, Italy and possibly other countries. A sixth volume was announced in Germany but never published.[1] The first two volumes have been published in English by Tokyopop, which has since gone out of business in the United States[2]. Kingdom Hearts II seems to take a more serious tone than Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, but still has some humorous scenes.

Licensing Issues
Further translation to English and publication in the United States has been postponed - no release is currently planned for Kingdom Hearts II volumes 3, 4, and 5, or for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. This is due to Tokyopop having lost the license to the manga. Disney and Square Enix have made no public comments on the future of the manga series.
