Are you still in Tokyo? Try getting there around 5:30 to 6AM in the morning, then go ALL the way inside to some of the big warehouse complexes. Ask your way to the tuna auction, and you'll see a couple of hundred of these lying around and some of the most animated auctioning this side of Asia. A sight not to be missed.
