25 of the Worst Anime Tattoos That Are Absolutely Begging for a Cover Up

Welcome, anime fans and stans. Everyone has a different process for deciding what their next tattoo will be. There are those who spend weeks and months planning what artwork will be immortalized on their skin. These careful planners treat their bodies like Feng Shui masters. Whether they are fans of traditional Americana, woodcut, or modern cyber sigilism styles, they make sure that each new piece makes sense with its surroundings and with its placement on the body. They carefully research artists to make sure that they will leave the tattoo parlor satisfied with their new ink. 

Then there are those people that go with the flow — perhaps a little too much. They might put some thought into the meaning behind their tattoo or even print out a particular design that they like, but they don't give the artist (and their previous work) a second glance before sitting back on the tattoo chair and getting inked. Scroll down for some anime-themed designs that look like they were drawn by a middle schooler.
