First, too many people have Kanji tattoos, many of whom, have no idea what it says (AKA. Many tattoo artists have purposely messed up people's Kanji tramp stamps). More so however, because you can't understand what it's saying, and thus it has no meaning to you. I would much rather see someone with simply JiuJitsu tattoo'ed in some unorthodox lettering, or something else Jiujitsu related (A belt, two guys rolling, anything, be creative). My belief is: If you need to ask someone how to write it, don't get it tattoo'ed on yourself.
Because some people think that once a bunch of people have something, it is no longer cool. Therefor if it's not cool, you shouldn't do it. I say fuck that. If you love jiu-jitsu there's nothing wrong tattooing it on your body. If you like the kanji, get at it. This guy probably changes his wardrobe every year based on what is now cool and burns any remnants of what he used to think was cool. I bet he had a big ass Tapout hoodie that he rocked all over till they became the "poser" MMA brand. Personally, I love jiu-jitsu and will get a jiu-jitsu tat one day (once I get some expendable cash).
Yeah, man, you're so cool. You don't care what anyone thinks, you're such a bad ass, I bet you do whatever you want with no regard for what other people think. You're also such a bad-ass, that you can make completely irrational conclusions about people based on a single sentence. Get off your fucking high horse, I guarantee that you act, or dress in a manner to be accepted by some social circle.
Kanji tattoos on people who don't speak Japanese, were never cool. I'm half japanese, so it's part of my heritage, but I don't speak it, so I'm not going to get something tattoo'ed on me in Kanji. Just like I wouldn't advise someone who doesn't speak Thai, to get a Thai tattoo, even though personally, their writing looks just as cool as Kanji.
