Anime Tattoos: A Guide to Trending Designs

What Kind of Anime Tattoos Are Trending?

Tiny anime tattoos are *everything* right now – especially for girls who want to show off their love of Japanese pop culture. A delicate design on your hand is super cute and shows you’re totally in the know!

Think beyond just a simple character face (though those are *always* awesome!). Here's what we're seeing everywhere:

• Kawaii Characters

  Sanrio, Studio Ghibli… if it’s adorable, it works! These are perfect for smaller designs.

• Manga Eyes

  Those big, expressive eyes are instantly recognizable and look amazing in a minimalist style.

• Action Scenes

  A tiny slice of your favorite fight scene? Yes, please!

• Symbolic Designs

  Lucky charms like Maneki Neko (the waving cat) or cherry blossoms add a touch of Japanese tradition.

Placement Matters!

Your hand is prime real estate. Consider where the design will look best – the side of your thumb, your pinky finger, or even between your knuckles can make a huge impact.
