Though what you said reminded me, I used to watch a lot of J-vloggers on YouTube (Anglos and others who have settled in Japan and vlog about any aspect of it). A lot of them mix the wasabi with the soy sauce. Good way of doing it, really.
That's the way I was taught when I first had sushi -- Wasabi goes into a puddle of soy sauce, then you dip the sushi in it.
Wasabi has a strange way of going straight to my sinuses. Might be happening with other hot spices too, but with wasabi it's like being hit across the bridge of the nose with a whole horseradish.
