Not a single grain of rice is out of place. All that remains is to teach his trade to his boy, Jimmy.

Star Level 3

Don't tell anyone I told you this, but this hat is made from fifteen pounds of real tuna sashimi!
The secret of my nori's freshness comes from its being harvested by mermaids in waters never before touched by humans.
I fear my son Jimmy may never follow in my footsteps… He's afraid of things both sharp and raw!

Star Level 4

Pre-packaged sushi from a supermarket is an abomination, and should not be allowed to exist!
I've learned my knife-wielding skills from many disciplines: master chefs, ninja masters, even pirates!
I lived in this town many years ago when there was a man who controlled essences much like you. When he disappeared, things changed. But now, with you here, I feel things are like the old days—things are good.

Star Level 5

One must look deep within their soul for the answers to many difficult questions, the hardest of which is: how much wasabi to use? Beware! Too much, and you will drown out the taste of fish. Too little, and you won't have that spicy kick. These are questions we must ask ourselves everyday...and everyday we must answer.
I will be happy when everybody learns to juggle knives like me. Hai! Hai! Hai!
Seaweed salad's rubbery texture seems to turn some off, but to me, it's delightful! How do you feel about it?

Tasks

Task 1

Description: Hmm...I may have ordered too much mackerel. I need to store 1,000 lbs. of saba.

Thanking Dialogue: Arigato! Finally a place to store my excess fish!

Task 2
