A nephew I hadn't heard from in ages reached out today for career & university advice, self-conscious about his knowledge gap but hinting that he knew lots about other stuff.
I prompted, & he ended up gushing about all his latest interests--with the certitude of youth, of course (an "expert" at workouts!)--but that's not the point. I love listening to all my nephews' passions.
So... I guess I'm now going to read 450 chapters of his 2 favourite online mangas to stay current again. 😂
@MLClark which two mangas?
Two online serials:
Legend of the Northern Blade
https://legend-of-the-northern-blade.com/manga/legend-of-the-northern-blade-chapter-1/
and
Martial Peak (for which he seems to have forgotten a digit; it's at 3345 chapters: oof!)
https://martialpeak.net/manga/martial-peak-chapter-1/
The cutest part was when he suggested that I might not like them because they had "lots of pictures". I think he has this idea of story writers only enjoying words, but good grief, our generation INVENTED the online serial graphic novel. 😂
Oh, the Yutes and their ideas.
Hey, neat! Hope there's something there that resonates with a fellow kipper. Great call on the investment, by the way.
