Someone needs to make a Japanese fishing village terrain before I even consider this. Nice find, thanks for sharing.

That's awesome. I used to live across the border in Kochi Prefecture not too far from Mugi Town.

From memory, some of the local restaurants offered 'Kaizoku Ryori' (literally pirate food/pirate cuisine) which is pretty much grilled seafood.

Mugi used to have a pretty good Onsen (hot spring) too so it's well worth a visit if you're ever out in that neck of the woods.

I agree about this making an awesome scenario for a game.

Brilliant read! I'll be in Shikoku in a few months time so now I'll have to plan a little trip to Mugi to see what I can find out :-)
