There should be a phonetard containment section of 4channel.

The heat of the sauce cooks the octopus

It's more of a korean thing than japanese.
This Old boy scene is quite well known for that

>>17827732
It's more of a all Asian thing than a specific Asian thing. They all enjoy eating live seafood and enjoy its suffering.

>>17827739
How about live oyster and clams?

>>17827766
Oysters and clams instantly die when you jam a knife in the shell and cut them open.

>>17827156
anon have some respect. this dish was made to honor the victims of the tokyo firebombings of 1944-45

>>17827926
I'm not entirely convinced of that, anon.

>>17827739
>enjoy its suffering
I think most people do not care.
Asian juat believe that the fresher the food is the better.
I used to threw living octopus (chilled to make them less active) to my hotpot taste heavenly.

>crying over a non human being

>>17827941
Well it's true. Imagine I slice your heart in half and then eat you 5 minutes later. You will be dead.
>>17827983
>Asian juat believe that the fresher the food is the better.
Everyone believes that, especially regarding seafood. Civilized people kill it 5 minutes before consumption while Asians eat it alive. They literally believe that the suffering makes it taste better.

It sounds to me like you're shucking them wrong, man.
I only cut muscle when I shuck oysters.

>>17828013
The hear is a muscle too. Prove the oyster lives longer than a couple of minutes after having its largest muscle cut or accept that you're wrong.

>>17828022
You're right, the heart is a muscle. I should have specified that I cut what we would in humans cut skeletal muscle rather than myocardium.
As for the oyster surviving five minutes; your original claim was that it dies instantly. I usually shuck and eat one at a time rather than doing a dozen and putting them on a tray anyway, so there's no five-minute interval for them to expire.

>>17827996
Octopuses, shrimp, many kind of seafood cannot feel pain.
For larger animal no one do these kind of "torturing" things
>>17827999
>>17828002
These are believed to be medicine to cure hundred diseases even cancer, not food lol.
The typical educated people do not do this.

>>17828074
>Octopuses [...] cannot feel pain.
Sounds like bullshit to me, given how highly developed nervous systems octopuses and squids have.

>these retards think that octopus in OP is alive
>these retards probably don’t realize raw oysters are alive
>>17827996
>They literally believe that the suffering makes it taste better.
Nobody believes that, dipshit. But you also think oysters are instantly dead when you open them.

>>17829368
> octopus in OP is alive
Yep
>raw oysters are alive
Nope
>Nobody believes that
Wrong. Why do they deep fry living dogs at the dog festival then? Don't make me post the .webms.
>oysters are instantly dead when you open them
Yep
>>17828074
>Octopuses, shrimp, many kind of seafood cannot feel pain.
Nope. If you damage it and it has the ability to move, it runs away. If they felt no pain then they wouldn't exist since they'd constantly get into damaging situations with no awareness and go extinct. It's not our complex endocrinological pain but it is still a negative stimulus that results in avoidance.
>>17828045
Doesn't matter, they instantly die anyway.

>>17828002
cannibalism

>>17829434
You’re basically wrong on everything.
Thinking the “octopus” is alive is especially retarded.
For one, it’s a squid.
Secondly, it’s a well-known dish in Japan, and the sodium in the soy sauce causes the fresh squid to have muscle contractions.
It seems you don’t really know shit about cephalopods, mollusks, or food in general.

>>17827996
Sometimes I love Asian women sometimes I'm convinced they aren't human

>>17829626
>You’re basically wrong
Nope, you are.
>the “octopus” is alive
Yep
>it’s a squid
k
>the sodium in the soy sauce causes the fresh squid to have muscle contractions
Nope, it's alive.
>cephalopods, mollusks,
Misusing taxonomical terms doesn't make you smart.

>>17829943
bro the head is cut off

>>17829943
Just stop, zoomie. It’s getting embarrassing at this point.

>>17829943
its a squid, and the part of its body with its heart, lungs, and the top half of its brain is literally missing

>>17827156
So? We throw living lobsters and crabs into pots of boiling water, you can hear their screams when you put them in even

>>17829969
Octopuses have multiple brains, one in each arm plus one central brain. A total of 60% of its neurons are located in the arms, the central brain with most of the rest is located close to the mouth near where all the arms join the body. The way the octopus in the op has been cut it's quite probable that the entire central brain is still in there.

>>17830607
I've seen old Italian guys bite the head to cut the brain stem when they buy them fresh at the fish market

why do asians torture their food

>>17830624
I'm still wondering why anyone would want to eat a gross raw octopus at all. It has to taste like dogshit.

>>17830635
I've had it. It's pretty good. You don't like sashimi either, I take it?

>>17830781
OP's gif is still a squid, and octopus at sushi places (in the west at least) is cooked.

>>17830607
bro you're so dumb

>>17831204
Cope harder, boy.

>>17830787
>octopus at sushi places (in the west at least) is cooked.
Not in France
