At least he didn't get a tattoo of it.
This could be a two or three panel cartoon or it could just be a single image. This time the fellow is fully clothed and not bound. Amazing, isn't it?
Panel 1: Fellow is looking at shirts, maybe in a small shop, maybe rifling through a box at a flea market and picks out a shirt with some oriental script on it.
Panel 2: He's obliviously wearing the shirt in public. An explanatory box provides translation: "I love tamakeri" or "Tamakeri target" or something on that order. There might be a female with a sly grin who has just spotted the text.
Panel 3: He's crumpled on the ground, obviously been hit hard below the belt. He's also unaware of why that just happened. A female is (or females are) giggling.
I can see as all three panels, as just panels 1 and 2, or as just panel 2. The idea is of course that he bought the shirt for the "cool design" and doesn't have a clue what it means.
If you are wondering, no, I don't know the language so I couldn't write or recognize it myself.

Пожалуйста! Кастрируйте меня!
Like so?
Now that I think of it, it would be neat if the female was wearing a similar t-shirt ("I practice Tamakeri") also in Japanese script... Similar enough that the fellow might recognize the symbol as being familiar, but he clearly doesn't get that he's about to get it.
