Hero (eiyuu)

Scroll to see all 7 Japanese Hero tattoo designs

Here we offer 7 different hand-brushed Japanese Hero tattoo designs by Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase. For these Hero tattoo designs the fonts are different, but the characters and the meaning are the same. So order the style you like - the meaning is the same for each design.

Hero in Japanese is 英雄 which is read eiyuu. The Japanese word eiyuu meaning "Hero" also translates as "Heroine" or Great Person" and is composed of the kanji 英 (read ei) meaning "hero" and 雄 (read yuu) meaning "hero; leader; excellence". Hero (eiyuu) is not gender specific.

Translations You Can Trust: We want you to be as happy with the Japanese translation as you are with Master Takase's beautiful art. So we have made it easy to confirm the translation for yourself by simply clicking on Hero (eiyuu) which links to the independent Jeffrey's Japanese English Dictionary. You can also verify the translation using Yahoo's dictionary entry Hero (eiyuu).

With your order, you will receive everything you need for the perfect Hero in Japanese Tattoo. Your design comes as an Adobe PDF file which means it will print exactly as Master Takase brushed the design and, of course, it includes the line art (also called a stencil) which your tattoo artist must have to properly ink the design.

As soon as your order is placed, you can download your Japanese tattoo design. We also send you an email with instructions should you want to download the design in the future. The Adobe PDF file completely documents the design and contains everything your tattoo artist needs to properly ink the design. Your tattoo artist does not need to know Japanese.
