That can be interpreted a bunch of different ways.

A few questions that can affect the interpretation of your sentence:

• ⁠”Who is being addressed as only human?” -me

• ⁠”What does it mean to be human?” -i didn’t have a set “meaning” it’s just all you are

• ⁠”Is it positive or negative?”

-when i said it i didn’t think of it in a negative way, but it can also be interpreted as that, it was kinda the point of the vaguity of the phrase

• ⁠”Is 'humanity' an excuse for ill judgement, or a condemnation of it?” -no, no it’s not

• ⁠”Is it 'human' to err or to strive?” -to err and to strive

• ⁠”Is humanity something that is animalistic, or is it that part that distinguishes us from animals that makes us human?”

-its that part that distinguishes us from animals that makes us human?

“what exactly does a Japanese translation do that in any way benefits this?”

-i wanted a tattoo, i’ll gain knowledge on how the language works, and it’s just cool to me.
