    I think some of those being silky flags sways me differently to if they weren't :D They have lovely dimension and shading :pac:

    Niigata - in a turn up for the books, I'm voting for a red and yellow flag, I love the circle formed of the two thin lines with symbol in line. Elegant
    Shizuoka - in a second turn up for the books, I'm voting for a flag with orange on it. I love the shade of blue and the white used to isolate the the colours. I also think it looks like dolphin meets volcano :pac:
    Aomori - a nice shade of green, but the langered leggy E that fell on it's back and couldn't get back up isn't as compelling as the imagery on the competition

    Just make sure to give all three in order of preference.

    So Niigata first I take it? What have you got in at 2 and 3?

    I think I am in the 'say what you see' frame of mind after the MS Paint reveal tonight ... sometimes I just see abstract symbols but there is definitely some interesting shapes in these :D Glad if you get a giggle :)

    Aomori it's the one on the north tip of the main island. Symbol on the flag is a map of the prefecture.


    They do shout a lot in anime :pac:
    A lot

    Ah man, now I feel like it deserves to get through, that is a really clever way to make a flag! (I still stand by my assertion that the letter E was having a day off from Sesame Street, got sh*t faced, and fell on it's back with an injured swollen foot) ;)

    Ibaraki is like a walnut whip. I don't like walnut whips, but I do like Robbie Keane's goal v Germany.

    So those silly reasons balance out - I hope there's a tie-break! :) - and it's

    Ibaraki
    Yamagata
    Kagawa

    Kagawa


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    Ibaraki - she sells sea shell on the sea shore... I love spirals :) and it's blue
    Kagawa - Australian gov seeks injunction to prevent imitation of Sydney opera house, Japanese required to cease construction half way through second section. That said lovely simple easy on the eye curves, and lovely shade of green
    Yamagata - Native American tourist campsite next left (lovely shade of blue just less interesting imagery for me)

    1. Ibaraki symbolising the rosebud lovely

    2. Yamagata get that others hate it but find it soothing

    3. Kagawa green is nice but don't love the symbol.
