Mt. Fuji has many faces.

From the open view of the mountain, to the darkness of the lava caves, and the quiet forest of Aokigahara below.

It is beautiful, peaceful, and heavy at the same time. A place where nature feels almost unreal — but where silence also carries history.

Japan is full of places like this: breathtaking, complicated, and impossible to describe in one feeling.

Emil

PS. Near the public entrances to Aokigahara, su***de prevention signs quietly interrupt the mythology of the forest: reminders that behind the dark tourism image, this is also a place of real human pain.

Known as ryū (龍) or tatsu (竜/たつ), Japanese dragons are powerful, serpentine, and usually wingless mythical creatures long-standing in Japanese folklore and water deity worship. Often depicted with three claws, they symbolize wisdom, strength, and protection, contrasting with, and generally considered more benevolent than Western dragons.

Fully healed. No filter.

Fun little extra at the end of this reel.

I’ll be in Japan this May and available for tattoo appointments at Yash Ink (Saitama Prefecture) working with incredible tebori Horishi Horigen and Horigen2.

I’ll be staying in Ueno from May 14–24, with available booking dates for sessions at Yash Ink. The studio is easy to reach from Ueno Station by train to Soka Station.

After May 24, I’ll be heading to Kawagoe.

For bookings or inquiries, feel free to send me a message.

Ransho by Masato Sudo.

A stunning book filled with Japanese horimono, powerful tattoo photography, and timeless artistry.

What makes this copy even more special: it’s signed by Masato Sudo himself.

A true gem for collectors, tattoo lovers, and anyone drawn to the world of Japanese tattoo culture.

Today I finished Bob's 'Oniwakamaru' back piece. We had already done the background and the pants well over 5 years ago, and the last few sessions were for the rest of the clothing and the fish.
