Ascidians - Halocynthia roretzi
The internet has come through - apparently they are ascidians - specifically Halocynthia roretzi. Ascidians are sea squirts — hermaphrodite marine invertebrates that live in shallow ocean waters, and which are thought to exhibit characteristics of the evolutionary ancestors of chordates and vertebrates. (Thanks goes to Karen Sanamyan at ascidiacea.com/ Species: Halocynthia roretzi (Maboya in Japanese)

Carving Up Tuna
You can see the body is fully of ice - I'm not sure if that means this is fresh fish or frozen, but if it was frozen they would probably be using the band saw. John Harvey Photo > Trips out of the Country > A Second Trip to Japan > Tsukiji Fish Market > Carving Up Tuna

Snails
I'm not sure why the shells on these snails are so broken. I'm not sure if these are salt water or fresh or how it's eaten. John Harvey Photo > Trips out of the Country > A Second Trip to Japan > Tsukiji Fish Market > Snails

Processing Area
The hanger doesn't have central lighting (that I saw), but there are large sky lights. Most of the vendors had lighting over their sales area, but some parts of the building were quite dark.
