I just don't see it.

It is a nice looking fish in terms of body conformation and skin as much as the picture can show, but I just don't see the sumi and beni coming together to create a balanced form. The sashi looks very thin and pinkish like watercolor paint. Was it Nagashima who defined it as tategoi, or the dealer/broker?
