Question:
I'm half Japanese, and this year I plan on getting several tattoos and hopefully a sleeve done. I'm going to be visiting Japan with my mom for the first time in 10 years and I just want to know if I will be looked down upon?
Answer:
Not really. But if you have several visible tattoos, some old people might find you bothering especially if you visit rural towns and cities. If you stay in Tokyo, there wouldn't be much of a problem. Alot of young people now are sporting tattoos and associating it with art. Although the yakuza stigma might be very hard to avoid.
I'm a Japanese woman too and I have 1 star tattoo on my wrist.
