Oh, that's the Simpsons visit Japan! The family has to work at a fish factory to make enough money for a ticket back to Springfield.

Knife goes in, fish come out. That's what Okinawa fish concern is all about!

Mr Sparkle.

So I was going to say Mr Sparkle isn't actually in this episode but there is a quick reference, but no actual Sparkle.

In the episode "In Marge We Trust", where we learn Homer aka Fish-Bulb is Mr. Sparkle, we have a commercial featuring a man interviewing a two headed cow,

In this specific episode "Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo", during a commercial break after the seizure robots we briefly see a similar scene with a different colored cow,

So still a reference, but no actual Mr. Sparkle.

Spare my life, and I will AAAAHHHHH

30 Minutes Over Tokyo is the episode.

Also OP is right the references to Mr. Sparkle were not in this one.
