No tattoos for me! Are you able to get tattoos easily in Japan at a young age? I could never think of just one symbol to put on my body permanently - I'm too complex - hee hee. I remember my friend told me her dad had tattoos like a yakuza, but he wasn't apart of it - but people thought he was!!

Hi much2say, I would say yes since lot of youngster/teenager here got their tattoo at a young age, I have a friend who got her tat when she was same age with me. But I don't like yakuza look like tattoo since yakuza are mafia's here in Japan and not a good image haha

Wow - I guess things in Japan have changed! I know a lot of Nihonjins that come out here want to be all hip and stuff - I didn't know tattoos were that popular too for the young crowd. My parents will be shocked to hear it!!

I know right, lot of changes here in Japan and you'll see it once you come back here Lot's of warui nihonjins nowadays. We sometimes go to Hakone ( Assuming you know that place) and we drift all night till dawn and most of people there are Japs and Americans and lots of gaijin too, we actually do illegal drift in hakone before and trust me we all got chase by Jap police. The place where used to drift was been close and nobody can enter there. So now we all go to fuji speed way, legal place to practice drift and drifters usually go there now.

I was 17, and it was my initials in runes. It's really cool , but now I knda wish I hadnt done it, ya know the whole body is a temple thing. I guess the older you get the more you wish you has=d thought twice about things, not regret them, but thought twice about them.

you regret that you got a tattoo? I like tattoo a lot and it's really addicting. Once you get one you will end up getting more and I'm thinking to get my third tattoo:)
