Amazing Design Japanese Yakuza Tattoos

There is nothing simple and "plain" about Japanese tattoo designs. Japanese tattoo design are an original style by nature, but most galleries don't put in the effort of posting better art.

Yakuza Tattoo Designs

In Japan, tattoo is usually considered to be a symbol of a yakuza (Japanese mafia) and tends to be perceived negatively by people. For example, many public bath facilities in Japan inhibit customers who have tattoos from entering. Traditional Japanese tattoo covers arms, shoulders, and the back. In recent years, it’s becoming popular for Japanese young people to get contemporary tattoos. Tattoo events are often held in big cities, and there are many Japanese tattoo shops in Japan. It’s good to contact them before you visit.

Yakuza Tattoos in Different Styles and Forms

Yakuza tattoos in different styles and forms. They are often done in colored inks and their designs make bold statements. Yakuza tattoos are often placed in body spots that are often exposed for the entire world to see. You can often see them on their hands, arms, chest and necks. Because of the relation of Yakuza to tattoos, you cannot blame a normal Japanese to be afraid and slightly frightened of some people with large and daring tattoos. It is common for heavily tattooed people to be banned in public and some exclusive hotels. Yakuza is known to tattoo their own members. If you see a black ring around an arm of a Yakuza, this can stand for the number of crimes he committed.

The tagline for these images are “Not all traditions deserve to be preserved. Put an end to whaling in Japan.”

Yakuza Tattoo from Predator

I am often forced to watch war and alien movies on the night they debut. With the release of the new Predator movie, today was no exception. All in all it was a well done movie with creepy predators popping out of nowhere and plenty of blood and guts to go around. But my favorite part of the movie was the fight scene with Hanzo, the Japanese Yakuza warrior. By far the coolest character in the movie, he also sports a fantastic tattoo covering his chest and back.

The Yakuza are basically the Japanese mob and many wear full body tattoos (irezumi). A lot of the tattoos seem to have that empty space down the middle like the one Hanzo wears. Apparently the Yakuza rarely show their tats in public, covering up with high neck and long sleeve shirts.
