I am. The trick, in my oppinion, is to make sure the character and the background all look like one original artwork, and that the "art" stands out, not the "anime", otherwise it looks imcomplete, and to stupid tatooless, animeless outsiders - cheesy (thus resulting in people dissing you and you going Hiten-Mitsurugi on their butts). For example, I have Lady Kayura on my left arm but it looked awkward afterawhile, so I had a background put around her with cherry blossoms. It looks more complete,cool, and I can extend it more to the rest of my arm in the future. If your'e planning to get one, do a lot of planning and have them print it on you first, and back sure you can integrate background and lots of color into it. You can get good images anywhere, of course, and most parlors can make interprative drawings when you give them a printed one. The first one I got was a huge blue dragon on my right arm, and it comes off the final battle between Kenshin and Shishio. I'll send pictures soon, if yu have,e-mail them to me or tell me about your ideas!

| And that you keep liking it :P I've never held much with the idea of permanent tattoos, because it's like wearing accessories or clothes you can't take off. Tastes change with time, and unfortunately, tattoos do not. |

I'd prefer NON-permanent tatoos.. much because of the reason that Dadelus said... "tastes change with time, and unfortunately tatoos do not." Sometimes, it's easy to think, "it's okay, I know I'm going to like forever..." and then, u end up getting bored of it after a year or more... that happened to me sometimes... |
