Err that's not what it says. Last character has incorrect stroke too.

カンテラ大好き = I love torch (I looked up 'lantern' because I couldn't think of a word off the top of my head, and that's the best I could come up with - torch = カンテラ so it says)
大好き = I love
愛 is also love, but it is a noun
私 is a form of "I" but you're missing the right part of the kanji :\
龍 is dragon (chinese style)....... >_> ...

Well his last character can be used in the word lantern but he left off the first character piece of the two character word for it that actually means lantern. The last part is more cage or box in meaning. As for you Chinese comment all Kanji is "Chinese style" since they are borrowed Chinese characters.

I stand corrected about the last character.
And by "chinese style" I meant the kanji itself meant "a chinese style dragon" -- not that it was a chinese character... :s
