Sashimi

Sushi is sometimes confused with Sashimi, which is related a related Japanese dish but not the same type of sushi dish. Sashimi is a traditional Japanese dish where fish is thinly sliced and served as is. When you find this on a Japanese menu it is generally ordered in pieces rather than sushi rolls. Different types of sushi rolls are usually sliced up in to pieces of 6 or 8 but you are paying for a sushi roll and not by the piece as with Sashimi and Sushi.
