   Just finished a manga called Kamigami no Itadaki. The Summit of The Gods in English.
   
   The manga is about adventure of a guy called Fukamichi, a mountaineer who's working as a photographer. After a disaster in an expedition to climb the Everest where he caught a glimpse of a man falling to his death with his camera, he couldn't bring himself to forget that incident. He wandered around Kathmandu until he stumbled across a sketchy antique shop, inside there's an old camera from the days of the early 20th century, a pocket camera. After examining it, he found out that the camera might be the one Irvine and Mallory brought to the first attack on the Everest summit. This camera led him to meet a legendary mountaineer called Joji Habu. From there on his destiny with the greatest Japanese hiker met.
   
   I won't write more about the plot because it would take the fun away from the story. The manga itself is quite short, just 47 chapters in total. As for my opinion of the manga itself......I shed a tear when I'm in the final chapter, that should be convincing enough. Here are some snippets that caught my attention in the manga. Go read it.

     @MK2boogaloo
     bros, i fucking love climbing
     if you have never been climbing before i recommend trying it out, try both bouldering and sport-climbing.
     
     honestly if i didn't start climbing i would have probably killed myself a few years ago. i never would have cared about my diet or habits, while now i can get obsessive over it.
     
     all i can think about is the next climb and what i do to maximize my body and mind for that.
     
     having something to live for is awesome and i hope that if anyone reading this doesn't have something just keep's trying new things until they find it.

     @momus that's a good motivation, I myself would like to go on a hike to a mountain for once. Yet I'm unable to because I have no friends that would like to accompany me.
     
     A reason to live is something that I've been looking for lately. Not sure what's mine, but I know it's going to be a long time before I will find mine.

     @MK2boogaloo meaning of life in my opinion is be good or get better finding your thing is what will make you better and you have litairly all your life to find it just gotta keep strong and keep trying new things.
     
     also outdoors people are pretty cool so my advice would be just go hike at popular spots at first and just talk with people they might even ask you to join their group.
