Not advocating it, but even when you decapitate some fish, they will continue to twitch or open and close their mouths. Eels are particularly bad for this - I've filletted eel, and the individual portions (2" x 5") would twitch even after 30 minutes after the fish was killed.

I once watched a carp head do that for well over 3 hours when I worked at a fish market. Just the head, cut away from the body.

All that being said, sushi is best the fresher it is. Although, the animal should be dead (killed quickly) before preparing as the flesh declines in quality if the fish struggles or suffers before dying.

I have seen things like this before, they actually fillet them while still alive. Very wrong... How would we all feel having that done to us!!!

If you eat sushi (I DON'T) that is ok, but put the poor thing out of its misery.

One poster is correct, some fish can twitch/gasp even after death, but I don't think this is the case here. My family are mostly all commercial fishermen and I grew up around alot of fish, torture is JUST WRONG!!!
