Maybe I'm hungry, and I have an affinity towards seafood (I like anchovy pizza, for one), but that looks pretty good.

Anchovy lovers, unite! About this article, I don't see why someone couldn't just make this themselves at home, what's the point of making it limited? Also people don't normally eat the head and bones, so this sushi roll seems like a hassle to eat, having to watch out for the bones every time. |

Ah, I thought it was one of those pickled fish whose bones had become soft enough to eat along with the rest of the fish. Reading it again, the article says the sardine is grilled, so yeah, there'd be the bones. Maybe there's a technique for eating it, like the way I see people do at Korean tofu soup joints (where they will typically give you an entire fried fish).
And me, I'm no good at making sushi, so I can only have it when someone else makes it. But yeah, it does look pretty easy to make. |

Learning to make Sushi is not all that hard, my oldest boy ( former Culinary Student ) learned how and then taught his younger brother, mother and myself. You just need the right tools, ingredients and time to practice. Nice part is you can eat your mistakes.
As far as the "Lucky Direction" Sardine Rolls, yes bones would be a problem. Of course, nothing in the rules says that getting your luck will be easy.

This sort of sushi would be an enjoyable dish if there weren't any bones in the fish. The customers are going to have a tough time consuming this sardine sushi without risking getting their throats scratched.

if you have trouble eating sardines without getting bones stuck in your throat, my advice to you would be to stop trying to deep throat your food

The issue would be shards of bones, as they would still be sharp. It's why you should never give chicken bones to a dog--chicken bone shards are like splinters and can get stuck in the throat lining, and because bird bones are hollow, they break off into these shards easily and blend into the food. It can happen with humans too, and it is not pleasant at all.
Regarding the ease making sushi, I'll take your word for it. I have an aunt who's not very competent at much but is very bold, and she learned how to make sushi. I'm just afraid of how precarious handling raw fish would be, though since everything here is fully cooked, it looks pretty safe. I was also rather intimidated when I saw Bobby Flay's Throwdown on the Food Network--he had to make sushi for one episode and admittedly didn't know how, so he turned to fellow Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto. Morimoto's technique for making sushi rice looked so labor-intensive that I decided I wouldn't even try. |

As to bones, it seems that Ms Dong didn't write about it in the ANN article, but the Kyōdō Tsūshin/Kura Corporation article says that the fish backbones are removed.
