In anime/manga series, the most common type of henshin/transformation that you would see would be associated with magical shoujou (e.g. Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, etc). During their henshin sequence, the girls would usually be in a state of undress but their bodies would be obscured by a magical glow. They will then be given a much kawaii outfit that will magically appear on their bodies.

Here’s a clip featuring the usual Nanoha henshin sequence and the outrageous henshin sequence of Panty & Stocking:

Henshin sequences in tokusatsu series (e.g. Kamen Rider and Super Sentai) are usually much more masculine and cooler because the protagonist are mainly male. They also usually have a catchphrase that they would need to recite, but in the case of Kamen Riders, it is usually just simply shouting out the words “Henshin!”.

Here’s one of my most favorite transformation sequence of Kamen Rider Black RX & Kamen Rider Black:

And here’s a really cool henshin sequence of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger with Engine Sentai Go-Onger.

According to Canned Dog, the man mentioned that the tatoo is not completed yet and it has cost him 30,000 yen so far. After this it’ll cost 10,000 yen per hour and they estimate it’ll take at least another 40 hours to complete this. In addition his parents cried when they found out about the tattoo. And his girlfriend cried too.

I was thinking that he could probably join the Yakuza with such a huge tatoo, but then again his tatoo is so cute that he probably get his butt kicked.

It would be even cooler if the Dekotora had LCDs embedded and playing the trailer of the movie.
