What is the story behind the script in his stomach? "He kept his promise" I think it says.

Great pics man!

hi, i am not sure if you ever got a reply from one of us on this question...my husband went to college when he was around 30 years old and went for four years...his brother told him that if he made it thru, he would fly in to see him graduate. so that is the date he graduated and a notation of the fact that his brother kept his promise :)

Some pictures from a book I picked up not too long ago entitled A History of Japanese Body Suit Tattooing (I found out about the book thanks to a couple people on this site, so thank you for that, LST). Unfortunately, none of these pictures had credits for the tattooers.

The third and fourth picture are both tattoos of Benkei (or Onikawamaru [Young Devil Child]) fighting a giant carp that devoured his mother at the Bishamon Waterfall.
