[quote="Mellie"]I'm actually more interested in the ones on his upper arms. From what I could tell from t-shirt peekage, he has one on each upper arm underneath the t-shirt sleaves.[/quote]

Uh....NO.

I was there when he changed T-shirts after the SXSW gig.

Sawao has ONE HUGE tat that goes from one upper arm all the way across his chest and over to the other upper arm. I think even his back is tatooed, but I can't be sure. I didn't feel like staring.

It's like he took a felt tip pen and drew around his arms at each T-shirt sleeve and the neckline and around his chest above his nipples, and said "Do it all inside these lines." If you cut off the top 12 inches of his black T-shirt you couldn't tell it was missing from a distance.

When he wears a T-shirt you can't tell it, but pull down the neckline or lift a sleeve and there it is. I doubt he'll ever wear a white T-shirt again, because the upper half would look grey.

Yakuza body tattoo?

[quote="schmatzee"]That's the other arm.[/quote]

so where do i fit in?

that explains why he wore a black shirt under the white one in 916. i thought the room was really cold or something.. he mustve been really tired playing with 2 shirts on..

If he has a big tatoo like that, that means he does have a tatoo on both upper arms. I of course assumed they were seperate because I have yet to see him shirtless since he got it.

I do however want to thank you for the description. All I can say is WOW!!! Thanks for the info, oh and the visual.

What I don't understand is why he would purposely try to cover it? Usually when someone gets a tat, they want to show it off. I would assume that he wore the two shirts for another reason. After all, if he didn't want anyone to see it, he would have been sure to change where no one could see him.

I swear to God, had I seen that, I would have peed my damn pants.

he wanted to be black.

I'm not gay. But if I was? Yeah. They're ALL hot.....(*giggle*) Actually, the shirtless part wasn't. He's not exactly "cut".

Let me re-phrase that: do I wish I looked like any one of those guys? Shit yeah. Even Jun.....although Kazushiro Miura is probably the best looking after Sawao...the guy looks like a [i]wolf[/i].....
