The book that influenced me the most was a comical book. It’s called Manga. It’s very popular in the country of Japan. The book was about protagonists and antagonists, the fights between them, the oppositions between them. But there was more depth to it than just this. It explained the different norms of the society, topics like slavery, corruption, civilisation, how the world actually works and the principles. These were all things that were in the comical book. Though it is a comical book, but it was explaining all this to us indirectly basically. You can say I read this book back in 2021 and that time I wasn’t aware of many things right because I was just around 12 years old. But I read this book because people kept talking about it. It was very popular back in the day. And once I started reading it, it influenced me so much to read more about it because there were such diverse topics in this book that just made me keep reading it. I though I have never read a book in my life, but that was the book I started with. And to this day, it is one of my most powerful book I’ve ever read, I can say. The book has a very big impact on me because like I said I read it at the age of 12. I can say it developed my friend the Loeb. It helped me think out of the box. It helped me start thinking about how the world actually works and how people don’t always seem to be like who they are.
