Entirely: yes, I was given a good start by school, games, and programming but I really wanted to finish bleach. I ran out of my native language dubbing, so I watched with subtitles english dubbing, then just japanese dubbing with English subtitles and I wanted to finish it leaving me with only manga in English. This again happened with Honzuki no Gekokujo and I just kept on reading and reading and reading to this day. I remember often using a dictionary on my phone during that time. Passion is the strongest force for learning, though my vocal skills stagnated until I made international online friends

I have to say, you’re incredibly impressive to have come as far as you have. And you took a unreproducible passion path completely unique to yourself.
I wish my special interests as a kid were anywhere near as useful for myself as yours turned out to be for you
