Where I think of Ceviche differing is in the substitution of lime juice for vinegar. I've found "Ceviche de Pulpo" on menus in restaurants on both coasts of Mexico and the preparation has been basically the same as the recipe listed here. Once I got a mixed ceviche with some raw octopus in that was almost inedible...the lime juice seemed to do nothing to it. Even the Japanese cook most octopus before eating in sushi!
