I have trouble finding english manga actually i havent found any online yet, most places are for books or in something i cant read. manga is pricey so i thought i could maybe print my own for personal use and to learn a new skill but that seems dumb, either way i want to read manga. i dont want to download one chapter at a time i would rather want to download one book at a time becasue of ocd. my librairy tends to be out of manga most of the time and have a long waitlist. also i did read the wiki but most sites dont have what im looking for and i cant read them becasue there not in english, im looking for manga like, one punch man, all you need is kill, bleach?, etc.

So i have (i think) no mucical talent becasue in school i was always bad at music classes and was behind compared to others also i coudent stand all the noises going on. im not sure why but i wanted a keyboard pinao becasue i like the way they sound, once i got one i tried to have some folks teach me but i imeditly got overwhelmed by eveything that goes into playing an instument. so by chance is there an affordbale instrument for beginner that can be worked on also what can one do once they learn an instument? is it just a skill to show off to others? i pretty much stink at everything but im trying to improve at life or my life more like it. i was thinking of writting songs or doing covers but im not entirly sure how that works. my hobbys/interests often change often but thats normal (hopefully) and hopefully no one is getting annoyed by me.
