Unpacking Japan · Is Japan's attitude towards tattoos changing? · 14 Jul 2026 podcast

So it's like, it's a totally different era.

So, so, like, it just dwindled.

It went from like 100 to like, to less than 1%.

But at the same time, because the people like, who make the laws are like, you know, they're, they're of the age that remembers this kind of like post war, like Yakuza movie kind of era.

So there's a kind of disconnect between the reality of now and, like, the way people, like, is perceived in the mainstream.

So, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

For a lot of the artists, well, for the artists that I'm particularly interested in, it's a culture and context.

So at the moment, like what...

Like, what's happening is, um, it's on social media.

So, um, and this was, like, really, really not a thing before.

And so before, um, before the only way you could actually see Japanese tattoos, the only two ways is, like, either the sento or matsuri.

Mm-hmm.

Um, where, like, those, like, heavily tattooed people kind of, like, um, represented.

Um...

And the people that I'm kind of interested in, like basically the artists that I think are, you know, the most charismatic probably like are involved in like this kind of downtown culture.

So it's part of like this whole –

like shitamachi culture in general.

And it's, it's a, it's really a cultural context.

So it's this, this kind of idea of like, um, in the Edo period, like it was the commoners getting out.
