They undress them and check for tattoos? That could be easily reported to labour office as a harassment. That is just ridiculous and so discriminatory, not to mention narrow-minded.
Anyway, if this is not a tattoo on your forhead it should not be a problem. There are many weird things in Japan. Example: all family enters the bath tub together, with father and daughters at the age of 12 or later, but when my wife was tanning topless on the beach, 15 guys banged the lamp post and 7 of them forgot to breathe or didnt know if they should look or not. Man i wish i had recorded this. They run naked in public baths, and read magazines with naked chicks in them in convinience stores, and yet they cover private parts with pixels on porn movies. They dislike foreigners (not all of them, i know) and can be xenophobic, and yet they wear western fashon, drive foreign cars and love Italian pasta, not to mention that Japanese has nearly 30 000 words in kana, taken from English language. The list goes on. If i was to pay attention to all that mess, i would not be able to live here. So, either you bring your own rules or you will get chewed. You know, your military friends may be right (though their reasoning for saying "do it you pussy" is slightly different from mine) to tell you to go ahead and do whatever you like. Unless you plan to work as a model or the tattoo you are planning to have is really controversial (like the T-shirts in the early years of 2000 n Japan, sold for kids, with the sig "Fist Fuck me". Shirts were pink. )
