No one is going to see your back

That's a bad idea.
If you just want a cool back piece with a similar style that's fine but I would not get an actual yakuza piece. It's almost adjacent to stolen valor and people may make (negative) assumptions about you in public areas like bathhouses, gyms, and such. Also some of those symbols have greater weight in terms of meaning and the kind of energy they may bring to your life. Having them unnecessarily may attract bad things or luck or experiences to you. Yakuza live that life so they can handle it and some of those symbols protect them in a way.

Imagine one day some important person decides you deserve a pretty senior role in APAC.
You're hanging out with bunch of Asian businesspeople and they decide to take you to a sauna. They thought you were this odd foreigner who's ok at their job. But now they see that you might have gang connections or were once upon a time a delinquent person with likely bad habits.
Ooops.
Welp if you work in the cultural sector, they might think it's cool if you have a cool story about it.
