Some things to consider about getting a tatoo in Japan, if you plan on going / living in Japan, make sure that the tatoo you get isn't in an easily visible place, tatoo's are generally frowned upon by Japanese society as they are a mark of the Yakuza.

Also, if you plan on ever going to a 銭湯 or 温泉 I would advise not getting a tatoo, as these places ban tatoos and disallow people with tatoos from entering.
