🏴‍☠ Week 3 | Flesh&Blood ⛵

This chapter catches me up to where I had read previously (except for a page or two in chapter 3). I remembered why I put off reading more of this though. I always fall down a rabbit hole of Wikipedia, Google, and Google Maps looking up and reading about different things, so I get easily sidetracked from the actual reading and it takes longer to actually get through the chapters, which I then have to budget time for. Hopefully the schedule will keep my wandering attention on track. :sweat_smile:

I didn’t have much to say about chapters 1 and 2 because they were mostly 海斗 swooning about how sad life is, although I was surprised on my first read when 和哉 punched him, since his character seemed so quiet and unassuming. I was excited this chapter to get to the actual crossing over, which was slightly more gruesome than I had expected with the exposed flesh and bones. I had imagined something more like him fading away or suddenly disappearing.

I tried looking for it, but didn’t have any success. I’m not sure what movie it is.

I also wanted to mention that I started making a map of the places mentioned in the story, but I mostly skimmed back through the first two chapters, so I may have missed some. If you’re interested, I posted a link in the F&B home thread.
