    This is why Japanese people say "Itadaki-masu" before every meal ladies and gentlemen.
    "Itadaku" is a polite way of saying "to take", and "masu" is a word you place at the end of a verb to make it sound more polite.
    That's double the politeness.
    You gotta thank every inch of life and skill that went into this dish presented before you, dead or alive.
    So, to people who are arguing whether the ell is dead or not,
    just give the ell a mad respect for giving it's life to let us survive and eat tasty things GOD DAMN IT!

    I’ve never had the opportunity to try any eel, least that japanese way so I can only imagine how it tastes like. I don’t see why not this could be the most delicious thing on planet earth. Japanese understanding of the fish and ways of cooking it are just like nothing else. Big respect from Finland! This made me hungry, made me even smile when thinking about how good it must be and at least now a trip to Japan is on my bucketlist.

      It's amazing. It doesn't taste like fish or seafood. It tastes like maybe chicken/pork but way way better, not even comparable really. It melts in your mouth. I highly suggest trying some. The sauce they put on it is amazing also. There is no gamey meat taste. It just tastes really nice, tender, flavorful, and lovely.

    This eel kabayaki is grilled in the Kansai style. In the Kanto style, when cutting an eel, it is cut from the back (black side) (because Edo is a samurai town, this is reminiscent of seppuku). Plus, "Kanto style" involves a "steaming" process after the mackerel is grilled (to make the eel more plump). There are delicious ways to eat eel all over Japan, so I think it will be fun to try and compare them when you come to Japan.
    このウナギのかば焼きは”関西風”の焼き方です。”関東風”はウナギを捌くときには背中(黒い方)から捌きます(江戸は武士の町なので、”切腹”を連想させるため)。プラス”関東風”には、鯖いて素焼きしたのちに”蒸らし”の工程が入ります(ウナギをより”ふっくら”させるため)。日本全国各地にて美味しいウナギの食し方があるので、来日した際には食べ比べも楽しいと思います。

      ​@@cnizamoglu The eel sauce pictured from 9:56 to 10:09 is generally made with a combination of soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sake (each store's original, no two flavors are the same). Also, the combination of eel oil creates an indescribable deliciousness.

    For anyone wondering, the movement continues after the spike through the brain because of the nervous system. The eel is already dead, yet spasms until the spinal column is removed, thereby disconnecting it from the nervous system. No electrical impulses = no movement.

      The spike doesn't pierce the brain, it's set between the jaw and the skull and its sole purpose is to fixate the eel for filleting. (The immobilization itself happened before, when the eel was put on ice for a while.)

    Grilling seafood is a very challenging task because they shrink and burn easily, but this chef did it to perfection! i cooked eels before and I used ash to remove the slim from the skin, then cut the eels into 1/2 medallions and season them with salt, pepper, and soy sauce. Then stir fried them and add oyster sauce, garlic, green onions, and crushed peanuts.

    In case this made people light headed like me just from imagining the pain, I did some research on this.
    The ice is for numbing and inducing hibernation for the eels and the tesla logo is for severing the nervous system from the brain. (instant death)
    The movements are from the remaining neurons firing as a reflex as the nerves remain alive for a while after death.

      Man I really hate that series now, used to be my favorite when S1 was just released. When I became a manga reader because some anime finish mostly at the middle point, Shokugeki No Souma was one of the manga I read, and it was there that I saw the direction it was taking. Frankly it was a disappointment, might as well just put it that the manga ended with the regiment Shokugeki arc cause the Blue arc sucked as well as the dessert 'cause the author failed to finish the story in a manner that satisfies the audience, basically he fucked up the flow of the story.

    You have to go to Japan to get a whole eel on your rice, let alone three darn it!
    Here in Canada (Toronto), Japanese restaurants only serve you a third of the fish on your Unadon (Unagi Donburi), and charge you approximately the same price they would charge in Japan (Tokyo), between $15 - $19. #AFrustratedUnagiLover

      The una-juu (marinated eel over a box of rice) was at the level of 2000yen($17 to $23) 10 years ago.
      Its price doubled in ten years. With the depletion of resources, prices double in a decade. The price of Glass eel of Anguilla japonica (Leptocephalus) has skyrocketed 30 times and the purchase price has tripled
      Today, it is 3,000 yen to 4,000 yen ($28~$42) in the eel shop. But The store is a deficit. ,Anguilla anguilla, or Anguilla Bicolor Bicolor is cheap
      We've been able to full aquaculture of Anguilla japonica, so we can eat cheaply in about five years.

      Putting a metal spike through the head allows the eel to not feel anymore pain, it becomes brain dead. It doesn't mean the eel is dead but it's less likely to move around when being cut up.
