    Ehime - nice colour and emblem, and the borders top and bottom are a bit different from the usual here. Plus, it's not a fidget spinning octopus.

    Ehine is something different here, so I'll vote for it. And yeah, as quickbeam says, the other one is a spinner doohickey, not a flag.

    Ehime - looks like an African flag; as another poster said, a refreshing change.

    After a distracted visit to the vet and a siesta, I can announce the winner.

    Supposedly the 'brown' is a dark red wine colour, and it's a bird flying towards the sun, not pacman eating through a boat hull.
    I'm attached so I'm going with it even though I have a feeling it will be going home!

    A reason with a good explanation. 1-0 Yamaguchi.

    A reason with personal preference. 1-1.

    Ok so no splitting them. I'll have to go with ari101's reason as it explains the symbolism very well imo.

    I see so many things, including a nice hurley and sliotar, it's a boring letter A seemingly :D
    However I am over the molestation of some poor woman's assets I see depicted in the other ;)

    Akita - nicer colours, and who doesn't like seeing a yoga pose on a flag? Also, LOL at ari's breast molestation description on the other - I can totally see it :D
