Size-based guide
Estimated tattoo amounts in yen
These are indicative estimates, not flat prices. Use the table to choose an initial booking category. A dense or complex design may cost more than a simple design with the same outer dimensions. The final quote is confirmed after the design, detail, and placement are reviewed.
| Category | Approximate size | Estimated amount | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mini | Up to 3 cm / about 1 in | Estimated ¥15,000 | A single small symbol, short lettering, or very simple one-point design. |
| Small | Up to 8 cm / about 3 in | Estimated ¥30,000 | A compact design around business-card size, depending on detail and placement. |
| Medium | Up to 15 cm / about 6 in | Estimated ¥50,000 | A more detailed piece for the upper arm, calf, shoulder blade, or thigh. |
| Large | Up to 20 cm / about 8 in | Estimated ¥80,000 | A larger composition for areas such as the upper arm, calf, thigh, or back. |
| XL | Up to 30 cm / about 12 in | Estimated ¥150,000 | An extra-large single piece, such as a half-sleeve-scale composition. |
| Custom | Larger multi-session work | Estimated from ¥200,000 | Sleeves, back pieces, chest pieces, and other large custom projects are quoted after consultation. |

How to estimate
Send these details for a useful quote
A quote follows the size, detail, placement, and your requests — the more concrete the message, the more precise the answer.
2. Placement
Name the body area and mention whether the design must wrap around an arm or leg.
3. References
Send the subject and level of detail you want, not only a style label.
4. Tokyo dates
Include several possible dates if you are visiting so we can assess artist availability.
5. Budget and requests
Share a budget range and anything else that matters — preferred artist, session length, or design direction — so the estimate can match your priorities.
Small work
Mini or Small?
Mini is intended for very small and simple work up to about 3 cm. Small allows more room—up to about 8 cm—for clearer lettering, a compact character, botanical detail, or a one-point Japanese motif. If the idea contains several focal details, expect Medium or a consultation.
Guest experience
Reviews from international guests
“I ended up deciding to get a tattoo the day before I left and not only were they able to fit me in, they also were able to get the design that I wanted done. Session lasted a few hours & they made sure I was comfortable & satisfied the entire time. I'll remember this forever, thank you!”

We had a group of 4 people and they were able to accommodate us! Pricing was very reasonable and the artists are GREAT! 10/10 experience!”

“Great staff. Everyone was very welcoming and even helped with proper translation of our tattoos. Tattoo was done perfectly and I love it. I would recommend them to anyone!”
Wade H., Google Maps review
“Staff were extremely nice and patient with me — I didn't speak Japanese and it was my first ever tattoo. I believe the quality is great and no regrets at all. Next time I get another tattoo, definitely coming back here.”
