Cool Japanese Samurai Tattoo
Samurai is the term for the military nobility of pre-industrial Japan. They follow the Bushido code, a code that is similar to the chilvalry code of the medieval knights in European.
They started to play an important role in Japanese society from the 12th-century wars between the Taira and Minamoto clans. Samurai were bound by a code of honor and were expected to set an example for those below them. One particular part about this code is it allowed a disgraced samurai to regain his honor by passing into death, where samurai were still beholden to social rules.
Samurai have been the objects of much admiration and idealization. Since the early 20th century, they have been seen as the incarnation of the values of the bushido of unfailing loyalty to their overlords and indifference to pain or death, but in fact rarely lived up to their romanticized image.
They are similar to knights, believing in honor and protecting the weak.
