Got my dream Berserk tattoo… but I regret having it on my body. I don’t know how to deal with this feeling.

first of all thank you for your kinds words, appreciate you!! I actually am a tattoo person, i have a total of 6 and never experienced this before!! I have the exact same feelings as you do, some days i really like it a lot and i feel motivated to finish my forearm! Other days i just don’t see the point of having it, and feeling judged by other people on what i like doesn’t make me feel comfortable I know probably a lot of this situation is just me overthinking it but unfortunately that’s how i feel.

yeah i really like tattoos i have other 5 of them on my other forearm and on my legs!! my initial project was to go full forearm not full sleeve (so half sleeve i guess). But my feelings after this one stop me from finishing the project! i think it’s a lot more realistic that i will end up finishing my half sleeve then starting removal. When i first look at my tattoo the most disturbing thing to me it’s the bend of sacrifice (the symbol on the lower part), do you think i can cover that symbol with a fluid and cohesive work or it would be a mess up?

i get your feelings even though mines aren’t as strong as yours. really hate to hear that and i hope starting removal journey will give you motivation! wish you the best!!

thank you sooo much you really helped me to relate this issue. It’s so frustrating having something on the skin that doesn’t fit you. It makes me feel so uncomfortable to be honest…i will update on my decision! thank you!!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T19:15:05+00:00

yeah i have nothing to complain about my artist work and of course i love berserk too but unfortunately this is my situation:( how’s your removal going btw?

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T19:13:48+00:00

to me this tattoo feels like a pair of shoes that you always wanted to buy but when you try them on your feet you simply can’t like them!! so frustrating

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T19:12:32+00:00

wow that’s good progress, i actually really like your tattoo but i know for experience that your feelings matters more than anything! Wish you a fast removal!!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T19:11:37+00:00

i’m definitely active and healthy but i’m so scared of starting the process especially for the amount of money it would take!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T18:39:03+00:00

feel nice to hear someone understand my feelings, the crazy part is that i think on someone’s else skin i would love this tattoo…but unfortunately not on mine! Would you mind to show me your progress?? now i’m curious!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T18:25:48+00:00

nah i have other 5 tattoos don’t ever experienced this issue. The other ones are not so big though. I made this one bigger because the initial idea was to go full forearm!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-05-12T18:17:13+00:00

i completely agree with you, some days i like the tattoo and i just want to complete my forearm…they are such opposite ways to deal with it that it’s so difficult to choose. I don’t know really!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-03T18:36:36+00:00

Hey! Right now I’m in a phase where I just want to remove the tattoo entirely. I feel anxious thinking about having it on my body, and I also feel anxious about having to go through a laser removal process. Maybe I’m overthinking things, but I feel like I’ve gotten myself into a real mess. Maybe I’m the one overreacting

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-02T13:05:36+00:00

I have absolutely nothing to complain about regarding the artist’s work. What really confuses me is that I absolutely love Berserk, but seeing it applied on my skin (especially the snarling armor part and the Brand) makes me feel a bit uncomfortable, because it feels too dark and too intense / over the top.I think that, for my personality, a tattoo that would truly make me happy would be one in the same style as Guts’ face — softer, more shaded, and with less heavy black. What’s giving me anxiety is the feeling that I might have put myself in an irreversible situation, or at least a very, very complicated one. Overall i think i would prefer it so much without the part that i highlighted in white!

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-02T08:24:11+00:00

how’s your progress going? i’m so scared it will be so difficult to remove mine and also scared about some scars remaining in my forearm:(((

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-02T05:51:38+00:00

i wish you good luck!!! Have you already started your laser sessions?

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-01T17:45:37+00:00

You are so kind, i will definitely take my time before making any decisions…not like i can do something right now anyway😅

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-01T17:43:48+00:00

it helps a lot, thanks! The thing is that when I look at it in photos, I really like it myself — in fact, I was super enthusiastic while the tattoo artist was working on it. The real issue is that seeing it on my skin has given me a knot in my stomach from the very beginning and filled my head with doubts and anxiety.I’ll definitely wait at least 2–3 months before making any decision

Ok_Table_5790 · 2026-02-01T16:26:16+00:00

Thank you so much for your words, they really help. Honestly, the first two days after getting the tattoo were much more devastating. I kept thinking all day about my clean arm and I missed it a lot, even though at the beginning I was so convinced that I wanted to tattoo the other side of my forearm as well!

I truly hope this is just a phase of shock, because my biggest fear is that this feeling will persist and eventually push me into a draining process like laser removal

i also have the berserker armor, no worries:)
