More and more I am seeing girls here in Japan with Cherry Blossom Tattoo's.越來越多的女孩，我在這裡看到日本的櫻花紋身的。 I guess the aversion to tattoos in Japan is starting to loose out to the younger generation, even to a point where I have heard arguments at Onsen's(public hot baths) over the suitability of the tattoo and how it is an American style tattoo not a Yakuza tattoo.我想紋身的反感，在日本也開始鬆動了年輕的一代，甚至到了一個地步，我聽到的論據溫泉的（公共洗熱水澡）在適宜的文身以及它是如何成為美國風格的紋身不是如龍紋身。

As the cherry blossom season approaches I am sure there will be a few more Cherry Blossom Tattoo's being inked onto the girls here in Japan.隨著櫻花盛開的季節的臨近，我相信會有幾個櫻花紋身的是簽署到這裡的小姐在日本。 If you are not aware of the whole tattoo issue here in Japan, let me enlighten you.如果你不知道整個紋身的問題在日本，你讓我啟發。

Basically Tattoo's in Japan were the mark of a criminal or associated to the Yakuza or Japanese Mafia.基本上紋身在日本的商標刑事或相關的如龍，日本黑手黨。 From my limited experience this is not exactly true.從我有限的經驗，這是不完全正確。 There are two types of Tattoo's I have seen in Japan, the Japanese Yakuza Tattoo which is a有兩種類型的紋身的我看到在日本，日本黑幫紋身是一 very serious piece of work and covers most of the upper body and down the arms, and even up the the top of the neck line非常嚴重的一塊工作，涵蓋了大部分的上半身和向下的武器，甚至了最高的頸線 , as seen in the first photo, and then there are the other styles which is everything else you wouldn't look twice at. ，如在第一張照片，然後還有一些其他的風格是一切，你不會看兩次。 I think it would be fair to say a Cherry Blossom Tattoo on a 21 year old Japanese girls is hardly the mark of a criminal.我認為可以公平地說，櫻花紋身一個21歲的日本女孩是很難商標犯罪。

The next problem is the popularity of the Onsen here in Japan, and the Onsen's aversion to allowing people with tattoo's to enter.接下來的問題是普及，這裡的溫泉，在日本和溫泉的厭惡讓人們有紋身的進入。 Usually you will see a sign board at the front entrance of 90% of Onsen's that says “No Tattoo's” in通常你會看到一個標誌牌在門前90％的溫泉的，上面寫著“沒有紋身的”中 Japanese and in “Perfect” English, in fact it's probably the only English signs that don't get screwed up and featured on Engrish.com or some other wacky sign site.日本和“完美”英語，其實這很可能是唯一的英語跡象表明，沒有得到搞砸了和特色的Engrish.com或其他一些古怪的跡象網站。

So as you can imagine that making the decision to get a tattoo here in Japan is a very serious decision.所以，你可以想像，作出決定，在這裡得到一個紋身在日本是一個非常嚴重的決定。 Also you need to be careful as some of the design go beyond a nice tattoo that could fit on you shoulder or foot as pictured in the second and third photos.您也需要小心一些設計超越一個不錯的紋身，可以容納你的肩或腳圖在第二和第三的照片。 As you can see in the last photo, this young lady went a little overboard and has basically destroyed any chance she may have had to enter any of the popular Onsen's here in Japan.正如你可以看到在過去的照片，這位小姐有點過分了，基本上摧毀了任何機會，她可能已經進入任何流行的溫泉就在這個日本。

One small tip for those considering getting a Cherry Blossom Tattoo, please make sure it is a Cherry Blossom Tattoo and not a Plum Blossom.一個小提示那些考慮得到一個櫻花紋身，請確保它是櫻花紋身，而不是梅花。 The easy way to spot the difference is that Cherry Blossom leaves have a small “V” cut on the tips of the leaves, the Plum Blossom doesn't, it is rounded all the way.最簡單的方法，現場不同的是，櫻花葉有一個小型的“V”削減提示葉片，梅花不，這是綜合所有的道路。

For those who are interested in Cheery Blossom Season here in Japan, it starts around the end of March in Southern Japan and works it way up to the North of Japan finishing around the end of April.對於那些誰感興趣的櫻桃開花季節在日本，它開始圍繞3月底在日本南部和工程的方法去到日本的北圍繞完成4月底。 For any one spot in Japan you will get only two weekends to enjoy the cherry blossom season and then it's all gone for another year.對於任何一個地方，在日本你會只有兩個週末欣賞櫻花盛開的季節，然後一切都持續了一年。 The standard practice is to get together with friends on one or both of the weekends, find a spot in a nice park( if you can find room) filled with Cheery Blossoms, and drink like there's no tomorrow.標準的做法是與朋友聚會，在一個或兩個週末，在現場找到一個不錯的公園（如果你能找到房間）充滿了櫻桃花，飲料等就沒有明天。 No doubt I will have a bunch of photos to share later on this month, hopefully in focus and safe for public viewing……毫無疑問，我將一堆照片分享本月稍後，希望在重點和安全供公眾觀看... ...
