    1. Kyoto - ok I'm a hypocrite, purple on a flag *scoffs... I really think this orchid and yellow floral number is sweet :o
    2. Hyogo - not sure what this is but it is more interesting than the latter
    3. Wakayama - maybe too simple?

    Kyoto is an early favorite. Did you Kyoto is not only an anagram of Tokyo but is also it's predecessor as national capital?

    Don't often see flowers on flags. Nice touch.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,198 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    1) Nagano - love it
    2) Ehime
    3) Tokushima - looks more like a corporate flag for some reason


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Ehime - first double coloured background
    Nagano
    Tokushima - bit too corporate looking

    My personal favorite coming up now in Group H


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,298 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    1. Ehime - first one we've had with more than two colours, I think
    2. Nagano - not a lover of orange, but I like the design
    3. Tokushima - boring

    Osaka

    Hokkaido

  • Registered Users Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    Another strong bunch:

    1) Kumamoto
    2) Osaka
    3) Hokkaido

    To tell you how close this was I originally had Hokkaido in first position.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,298 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    1. Osaka - is it an octopus? Is it an elaborate fidget spinner? Who cares, it's great.
    2. Hokkaido - Sapporo is on the island of Hokkaido, which is where they had the 1972 Winter Olympics, so I'm guessing that's a big snowflake of some sort. Even if it isn't, I like it.
    3. Kumamoto - love the background colour. If this was in another group it could possibly have gotten my number 1 vote.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,272 ✭✭✭Barna77


    Hokkaido - winner of the game :D
    Osaka
    Kumamoto


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Osaka - striking, easy to identify your lot.
    Hokkaido - Pow Kazam
    Kumamoto - a tad dull


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Kumamoto - nice red background and simple, uncluttered logo.
    Hokkaido - nice, but not quite top of the lot as it reminds me too much of the UK flag.
    Osaka - blue background is nice, but logo doesn't do it for me, there's something trypophobic about it that's offputting.

    Overall, so far, the flags here are very nice - much more rich and striking than the usual flags you get.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,777 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    1. Hokkaido love this flag too

    2. Osaka

    3. Kumamoto
