All Food TV Looks Like ‘Jiro Dreams of Sushi’ Now | Eater

"Portrayed as the chaotic starting point in the lifecycle of a sushi meal, this wholesale fish market is shown as a bustling, sensory hub where raw, hands-on work takes place—fish auctions, the spearing and cleaning of eels, and visceral processing that provide dramatic, nature-documentary–style imagery. The market’s noise, energy, and unvarnished labor serve as the gritty counterpart to the refined nigiri that follows, making it essential to the documentary’s narrative about how exceptional sushi is sourced and prepared." - Amy McCarthy
