The idea of a tattoo is actually warming up to the younger crowds. The older generations still associate it with the yakuza since that is what they grew up with.

That being said, I still plan to get more tattoos done (although I'll need to fix my first one up), and do plan to return to Japan eventually. Just don't go flaunting them off to strangers like seems to be the norm in North America.

Personally, I like to keep mine where I can cover them with professional business attire.

Actually there are still many older Americans that react negatively to tattoos also. I have to wear sleeves at work to cover the one on my arm - Boss's orders. Its still considered inappropriate in many businesses.
