Horimono: The Japanese Tattoo will shortly be offline. Thank you to all those who have supported this site over the last three years, and please check the Keibunsha website for publicity for the Horimono: The Japanese Tattoo book. I would also like to extend sincere thanks to the Japan Tattoo Institute for all their help and support during my research. For those conducting their own study on the subject my history page is still online, the links page lists a few Web resources and the references and further reading page has my reviews for most English horimono reference books currently on offer today.
