He has hemorrhoids... and he is proud with that
I know, it's not a tattoo, but it's funny. I assume that the poor kid has absolutely no idea about the meaning of the ideogram imprinted on his sweater.
What doesn't know the lucky owner of the sweater is that the ideogram means "piles, hemorrhoids" (both in chinese and in japanese). Fortunately for him it's easier to get rid of a sweater than it is to get rid of a tattoo.
Now, I would like to give you an advice: if you want to decorate your skin (or your clothes) with ideograms (Kanji or Hanzi) you should avoid the ideograms which contain the radical depicted in the image below:
This radical means "sickness" and the kanji / hanzi composed with this radical are usually associated with diseases, sickness, illness, etc (e.g.: 疔 = ulcer, 疝 = colic, 疥 = scabby eruption, 疣 = wart, 癢 = itchy) - in short, not the kind of words that one would normally choose for a tattoo.
There are several ideograms composed with this radical which are not related to illness and diseases, (e.g.: 疾 = fast, rapidly) but there are very few and, unless you are absolutely sure about the meaning of the ideogram, it's better to avoid the Kanji / Hanzi which contain the above-mentioned radical.

Failed tatoos: Kanji mistakes - the seven virtues of the samurai
Well, this is happens when you get a kanji (or hanzi) tattoo without consulting someone who is knowledgeable and trustworthy. This is one of the worst kanji tattoos I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of silly tattoos).
First, let's take a look at the image below: the seven virtues of the samurai, written in kanji. I've choose a common type of fonts - MS Gothic.
Now let's take a look at this photo: It's obvious that the tattoo is a completely lame.
Let's take a closer look at the ideograms tattooed on this dude's body:
The first kanji, tattooed on the neck: two strokes are missing (the strokes from the top) and the ideogram has been splitted into two parts: 王 (king, monarch) and 我 (I, me). In the image below is a standard depiction of this kanji:
The second and the third kanji seem to be well written.
The 4th kanji is missing a stroke. In the image below is a standard depiction of this kanji:
The 5th kanji is a total mess: a stroke is missing (in the upper right corner of the kanji) and the radical looks like an independent character. In the image below is a standard depiction of this kanji:
The 6th word is composed of two kanji characters (名 - distinguished / name / reputation and 誉 - glory / honor /praise / reputation). When a word is composed of two or more kanji, all the kanji must have the same size and must be written on the same line. In the image below is a standard depiction of this word:
As for the last word - Loyalty - this word can be written with one ideogram (like he did) or with two ideograms, like this: 忠義. Considering the awful drawing of the word above (honor), it was the a wise decision to choose the simpler variant :)
