IMO they're not the same at all. people from all over the city come there to get their food, a lot for restaurants. that's how they are able to make money and get food. in a way, it kind of runs the food market in tokyo. its not there for the tourist part. even a few years ago they tried to ban tourists from even visiting the market because some people were posing in pics where they were pretty much on top of the giant tunas for sale, pissing off locals.
bullfighting is like non-release sport fishing
