So, fish... I have never seen the ocean. I have never seen any fish before... I guess I'll ask for net fishing fish, net fishing fish... Excuse me!
Hey, 'rasshai! What would ya like, lad?
Uuuh, ah, I'm looking for net fishing fish. Do you have any net fishing fish?
Yeah, well y'know what, most fish are caught with a net. Name it!
...Oh. Okay. That's easy then. Ahhh...
Oh! What is that? That's a very big fish. What's that?
That? Ya don't know what that is? Ya sure you're Japanese? That's salmon.
Salmon? Is that a net fishing fish?
[A shrug.] I'm sure they caught it with a net.
Ah, Okay. I'll take it. Salmon, it's big. I like it.
Ohh! There is a very strange-looking fish with many legs! What's that?
Ya don't know what that is? That's octopus!
Octopus? It's called octopus? It's a strange-looking fish with many legs! ...Why is he so red?
Well. We boiled it.
[Slowly nods in incomprehension.] Bo, bo, bo, boiled?
Y'know, like... taking a hot bath, y'know?
This funny-looking guy took a bath!? Ha ha ha, very funny, very funny! Okay, I'll take it! Okay, what else...
Ohhhh! These are very strange-looking fish! These small tiny fishes, they have no eyes, no fins, no tails... How can they swim?
...You've got to be kidding. Those are sashimi.
Sashimi?
Yeah, sashimi. Sliced tuna. Haven't you had these before?
I don't think so. I don't know tuna... these are called tuna... [He stares down at the fish, then grins brightly at the merchant.] Not good at swimming, are they? Are these net fishing fish?
I dunno. Whatever. Sure, yeah!
Okay, I'll take it! I think that's enough, that's enough... Here is the money. Thank you very much! [He hands over the money and mimes carrying a bag.] Oku-sama will be very happy to see these fish!
