Need a Kanji Translated? Just ask!

Hi there, I desperately need a translation of the attached Kanji and I think the other is Katakana.

I tried a Kanji translation program but became totally lost. It is personal and from an old business card of my fiancee who worked in Japan some years ago, she said she was only a dancer but I am not comfortable after seeing the business card and photos and feel I have the right to know either way. The top line on the card was only partial, I think the next is the club name, the following 3 lines were in front of the girls names and the bottom 5 lines are the names of the 5 girls on the card. I appreciate your assistance and think I would feel better knowing either way.

The first line would be the last half of "palace/pantheon of cabaret".

The third three lines are all the names of the regions in Tsushima city, Nagasaki Prefecture.

The bottom five lines are the names of the clubs, as same as the second line.

If its not too much trouble could someone tell me the name of the main club and the names of the 3 regions of Tsushima City in the above image? I found the city on a map, all of the regions seem to start with Izuhara or Izuharamachi, I dont know if that is a part of the name or if it is the word for region (Please excuse my ignorance) and can you tell me the names of the clubs, or at least the main one?

Years ago, my dad picked up a room divider screen on his trip throughout Asia. I am trying to translate what it says. The pictures are attached.

Any idea what they may say? I have picked a few words out like mountain, exit, earth, etc., but trying to find any words other than 1st and 2nd grade level words is beyond me, lol.

乾坤: heaven and earth/the world
精氣: the spirit (of all creation)

吉祥: auspicious omen

My friend asked me to translate this kanji that his friend decided to have tattooed on his back. He obviously didn't come here first and asked me, as he knows I have studied a little Japanese, weather I could translate it. Sadly, I don't recognize the Kanji but maybe you guys will? I promise I wont take the credit 🙂:

Vectors, basically that means "respect". Hope that helps!
 
The first pic is a closeup of a necklace I found today (gotta love the randomness of thrift stores). It's an old carving so I imagine it might be a bit inaccurate but any help or ideas would be much appreciated. :-D Also, when trying to research it a bit on my own, I came across another photo that seems like it might have been what the artist was going for with the necklace... Not sure if it's the same Kanji (or what either of the pics translate into) but I thought I'd attach it too in case it helps at all.

Thanks in advance for the time and effort. :-)

They are same kanji, 福, which means good fortune/luck.
This kanji is used very commonly in China, having items with this letter is believed to bring good fortune.
And I'm very much sure the two in your photos are Chinese.
 
Lol. At first glance, the first picture (one to the left looked to me like 猫 or "cat". :p
 
Hello! :) Would anyone be willing to help me identify a couple of kanji I'm having trouble reading?

First is this blurry little one:

It's probably something simple, but as a beginner I have trouble identifying from context when I can't make out the kanji. :(

And this little handwritten one has stumped me for some time as well:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
@Watermelon

Both are just too small to read - the first one could be 閉められている and the second one 隊 but I could be totally wrong...
 
I was actually hoping that's what the second kanji was to make sense in the context, but I just couldn't seem to make myself see it as that character! But since you identified it as that even without the context, I am now 100% sure that's what it is. :) Thank you so much!

As for the first one, I am not sure either. But it does look as though the left and right sides are different, so it might be something else. I know it is terribly small so it may not even be possible to read, but it was frustrating me to no end so I just had to ask. Thank you very much for your help! :)
 
I think the first one would be 舐められている.
 
Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could help me translate this to English:
