hello question about skyfish! do they taste better when fried or breaded? jkjk i just wanna know more about the story :>

hihi!

oh man your joking question makes me wanna eat fish wwww! they'd probably taste banging both ways (i love fish)

it also made me think more about the distinctions between skyfish and regular normal fish, because the skyfish world does have regular normal so there should be some ways to tell the difference. currently i'm thinking that skyfish flesh tastes a lot sweeter? but it's something i'll work on in future for sure!

as for some info about the story (while keeping with the skyfish consumption theme): the hitter (who's STILL unnamed, it's a problem) was ostracised by many of his peers and their families during his early teens because he was spotted catching a skyfish to eat (he grew up in the undernarrows, where eating skyfish is pratically a taboo no matter how desperate one is).

in the hitter's personal opinion, if skyfish are the reincarnated dead and they're reincarnated back into humans after they fish-die, eating skyfish just hastens the speed at which the reincarnation cycle occurs, which isn't a bad thing (right?). food is food and he's down to eat pretty much anything as long as he doesn't go hungry.

anyways after the ostracisation and his father's death (whole other kettle of fish to go into www) he dropped out of school and moved away to work in the nightmarket, which is where he met and befriended spades (and the rest is history!)
