Fuck Jiro and Fuck Sushi

>>83547128
How good can his sushi even be?

>>83547128
>Probably tortured a bunch of American POWs during the war.
Almost certainly. Beyond the whole sushi meme, this 'wise man' basically came across as nothing more than a bitter sociopath.

>>83547165
He's got 5 star rating. People think it's good and will pay for it. That's ultimately how good anything is. Will you pay the price to eat the sushi? Yes or No?

Didn't they only have 1 of his 2 sons in the documentary? I think his other son wouldn't speak to him or something like that.

>>83547165
It's a tiny restaurant and he is a celeb. I bet his sushi is only good at best.

>>83549121
Correct, 2 sons. One works with him the other works at his own place.

>>83549126
I bet you're 17 at most.

MUH FISH

>>83549093
I'm sure it's decent but things can easily become memed to the point where they're overrated. One celeb gives him a good rating all of a sudden it snowballs.

>>83549156
Why do you feel the need to belittle him? I doubt there's any way that his raw fish and rice is head and shoulders above the other guys fish and rice.

Oh OP is a precious entitled little cunt.

300$ for a single piece of sushi

WTF I hate capitalism now

Sushi is great when it's done right, I could eat it every day.

>>83549246
It's not for a single piece....

There is a lot of talk of his sushi being overrated. Good, but not world class. He has his mediocre students churn out the sushi on a daily basis without doing any preperation himself (which is pretty much unheard of in any top tier sushi resteraunts) and is openly rude to foriegners and customers who dont suck up to him and his restraunt.

Apparently the critics who give out the michelin stars are no way near familiar enough with japanese cuisine to accurately judge it compared to other resturaunts. As in thier taste is no way near refined enough to judge the difference between a chef getting 1 michelin tar or 3. They just go off of how prestigous it looks and it's local reputation to differentiate between 1/2/3 stars. There was a link a while back to a load of specialist japanese food critics going there before it exploded and giving it lukewarm reviews because the service was so bad and noting that the price you're paying for the quality you're getting is outdone by other sushi restraunts in tokyo alone.

whether his sushi is actually good or not isn't relevant to what he's said. he's got a valid point. if you tell children that whatever they've done wrong can be undone, they won't give a hot shit about doing the thing correctly the first time

Europeans and Americans say failure is a part of life. Last time I checked, his country had two nukes dropped on it and the Japanese women were slaves for American cock.

>>83547128
Are you retarded or do you not understand the underlying message in that comment? He's entirely right, if you tell your kid "everything gonna be fun even if you fuck up" they are prone to giving up much earlier than not.

>>83547128
t. Failure

>Women are served less food than men
HOW was this allowed??

>>83549407
And european/american woman are slave to sandnigger/nigger cock. What's your point?

>>83549531

fuck off roastie

>>83549654
Not a girl. Hope you get liver flukes, you weeb fuck.

Awwww OP...you're one of those precious SJW snowflakes I keep hearing about aren't you?

"I'll NEVER tell my kid they can't come back home...that's child abuse...even when they're 32 years fucking old and a complete and total lazy bitch ass loser..."

>>83549532
Only under (((influence))).

Like any intelligent, forward thinking citizens of the 21st century, my wife and I are feminists. And like any feminists we were shocked and disgusted by this movie.

Both the main character (Jiro) AND the narrator are male! If alarms aren't going off in your head so far you're probably a bigot. Things became more and more repulsive as the movie played on. All of the supporting characters are male! And even worse, almost every single character in the movie is male!

I don't care if this is a documentary. My wife left the room in tears at the end of the first hour during a particularly sickening scene where Jiro serves a room full of customers. He says (not an exact quote) "I made the meals smaller for the women and larger for the men so that everyone would finish at the same time." Things like this would be expected in a film about Adolf Hitler or Winston Churchill (both disgusting sexist pigs)but in a movie about food it was just chilling. And that wasn't even the worst part! The women in the room appeared (probably special effects or movie magic of some type) TO APPROVE OF THIS. Can you believe that?

My wife won't talk about it and I'm not sure I could if I wanted to. I finished the movie with tears in my bloodshot eyes. I can't believe we've advanced so far as a society and women are still seen as being gutter scum.

Anyone forward thinking enough to simply be on the internet, to find this movie, to read this review, will be disgusted by the brutally sexist assault on your senses and common decency this movie has gotten away with.

on the real, as someone who has lived in a few different places in japan,

i have been to local sushi shops (some even being conveyor belt) in rural places along the coast of japan,
and they beat any fancy shit you can find in tokyo

even in tokyo (which i live in now),
you can find sushi that is just as good,
but not pay a butt ton for, and not deal with some pompous faggot

this is of course irrelevant to what he said in your picture,
iam just drunk and dreading going to work tomorrow,
so i figured id chip in with my excellent opinion

>>83547128
the movie isn't about how good his sushi is... the movie is about his desire to achieve perfection. sure, he finds really good ingredients to make his sushi, so it is definitely above average... but the experience is more than that: his reputation and celebrity status influence the whole dining experience.

>>83549093
>5 Stars for a raw fish establishment.
hahahahahahah

>>83552617
>his reputation and celebrity status influence the whole dining experience.
Easily led millennial faggots like you and your 'experience' need to fuck off.

Can't wait for the sequel; Jiro nightmares of ass rape

>>83547128
I tried watching this, it was just some Japanese guy sleeping.

>>83551944

>literally shaking right now

>>83549407
>were slaves for American cock.
>were

lol, any decent looking white dude can go to Japan and slay like a 10/10 Chad.

>>83547128
He's not necessarily wrong but at the same time his perspective is kinda fucked I mean his oldest son is 50 and still working for him. Sure his kid isn't failing but he's not really doing anything of his own he's just a mirror image of his dad.

>>83547128
why the fuck does he say 'nowadays', living with your parents was basically what everyone did in the past, only boomers ever really started to move around en masse and leave home. Its also an efficient way to bring up children whilst working if your parents came help out.

>>83555161
It is ok in japan to help your parents business and be basically their slaves.

Birth of Sake is a better doco.

>curmudgeonly but still lovable brew master
>the feel when the old guy who's only family is the sake crew, dies

>OP, who is a millennial, crying that his parents won't support him after he's 18

lmao fucking loser

>>83547128
Just traditional asian parenting. When he says a failure, he really means "not doing what I've decided they'll do". He's old so he'll have been super strict to his kids and groomed them to take over the business or be a doctor, them wanting to quit that and do what they want is interpreted as them being ungrateful shits. Can't really blame him because those are the morals he'll have learnt his entire life.

The point of the documentary is not sushi you fucking autismals. Its about finding something in life you can be passsionate about, even if its raw fish with rice

>>83547128
>>83547165
it's all hype.
i've been and it's okay but hardly worthy of a movie. there's a 30 min time limit and then you're done.

>>83547165

It's probably good but you would not be able to tell the difference from any other average sushi place.

How can you not respect him, he came from nothing and mastered his craft, created a world famous restaurant and raised two kids who are also incredibly successful, you don't have to like him but you should respect him.

Based Jiro, he fucking knows what's up.

>>83555321
and yet we have another father with an estranged son in it, too. fuckin' japs...

Fish is the perfect pleb filter meat.
Any retarded woman or american can cook beef, it takes real skill to prepare fish.

>>83547128
That's bullshit, I would've been a fuck-up no matter what. Some people aren't built to function properly, but like Alfa Romeos we give the greatest thrill to normies with functional lives/everyday cars.

But yeah old guys like him are the reason family units have disintegrated in Japan. Mommy gives blowjobs to her boy, daddy is out fucking high school girls, one of whom is his daughter and the boy crossdresses in his sisters clothing. The rest of you as well. What the fuck is wrong with you people? I'm nuts but you're insane.

>>83549093
You are the reason for this bs holy shit you are one simple guy.

Every Jiro thread....

>>83549304
Wasn't there a nip food critic in the movie who said Jiro's sushi was the best?
