We provide authentic Kanji designs, created by master calligrapher

AI cannot replace this

A tattoo stays with you for life and it carries your soul.
Don’t settle for internet Kanji or common fonts—
choose authentic Kanji, written by a master, made only for you.

侍 =Samurai

You don’t want this, do you?

The sad truth is, most Kanji
tattoos out there are wrong, awkward, and downright embarrassing.
But a tattoo is forever—it’s carved into your living body.
That’s why you need to know the true meaning,
and choose authentic Kanji, designed exclusively for you by a master.

  • 防波堤＝breakwater 

  • 百円均一= 100-yen shop

  • Themeaning makes sense, but in Japanese it looks ridiculous

    忠実な夫＝I am a loyal husband

  • Itturns into a strange, made-up Kanji that doesn’t exist in Japanese

    This word 「力女」doesn’t exist and a literal translation of the characters would be 「power woman 」

The translation is incorrect

  • 無料= for free

    It was probably intended to mean 「freedom」
    but instead it ended up with the kanji meaning 「for free」
