I don't understand why this person decided to have all the strokes in each characters to be various width.

Out of nine characters, two of them are repeats, and both were still wrong. One would think the tattoo artist used the first one as a practice trial.

Starting from the left upper corner and descending:

1. (right conduct, righteousness) has broken one stroke into two dots in the bottom partial of .
2. (social custom; manners; courtesy) is correct.
3. (humaneness, benevolence, kindness) is correct.
4. (loyalty, devotion, fidelity) is correct.
5. (right conduct, righteousness) is missing one horizontal stroke as well as has broken one stroke into two dots in the bottom partial of .
6. (real, actual, true, genuine) is correct.
7. (brave, courageous, fierce) is correct.
8. (name, rank, title, position) appears to be missing a small dot in the partial.
9. (fame, reputation; praise) is correct.

Six out of the nine characters are correct, this tattoo has earned a grade of "D+".
