DO NOT put wasabi directly into the soy sauce. It should be applied directly to the sushi. Putting wasabi into soy sauce is more of a Western thing.

hands vs. chopsticks is meh - both are ok. fingers are easier.

Standard japanese practice for nigiri is that there is already wasabi under the fish so then you don't need to put wasabi in the soy. That is what you do with chirashi/sashimi.

However in the west, there usually isn't wasabi so you have to put it in the soy, a la sashimi.

IIRC, the eel is cooked in soy and so doesn't need to be dipped.

I'm glad to see this thread - because I'd read that it's preferable to eat nigri sushi with your fingers, and it's a lot easier that way, but when I've done it out in public I feel weird because I'm usually the only one. I've also more recently discovered that it tastes a lot better to just put a dab of wasabi directly on the sushi than to mix it with the soy sauce.
