I think you mean Bushido. It's OK I guess, just keep in mind part of the code is if you lose your honor you commit seppuku (ritual suicide.) Unless you follow that so strictly, which I doubt or you'd know more about it, I personally think it's silly to get it tattoo'd on you. Up to you though, I suppose it could be more of an homage.

It's really just more of a personal vexation of mine, (real) samurai are not cool. Their purpose was to kill people and kill themselves if they failed. Pirates too, we have created a romantic version of pirates/ninjas/samurai but they are not cool. You can enjoy reading about them, watching movies about them, but to me getting a tattoo related to them is going too far.

I didn't mean to imply to get "samurai strength" in celtic, just the word strength, or maybe "noble path" in german or something.

Just one person's opinion, I doubt most people would care.
