    1. Miyagi - nice colour and unusual design
    2. Fukushima - again a nice colour and unusual design
    3. Toyama - looks a bit corporate

    Think it's a cheeky Toyama/Toyota reference to the Toyota logo :)

    From wikipedia:

    The symbol is meant to represent the hiragana と (to) and two mountains (yama) to form a rebus of Toyama.

    1. Gifu - I like the symbol shape and colour
    2. Oita - the symbols is interesting, balanced in points and symmetry
    3. Mie - I'm just not sure about the amount of this green and the altered french horn symbol

    1. Mie - really like that colour green
    2. Oita - looks like the flag of an evil empire in some science fiction film
    3. Gifu - not much going for it really

    That was a tasty three-way tussle. Next triumvirate is tantalising.

    1. Tochigi - really eye-cathcing colour
    2. Chiba - I like the unusual star thingy
    3. Nagasaki - a bit unlucky, it's a nice flag but just slightly prefer the others

    Chiba - really nice blend of the gold/yellow surrounding the symbol into the blue.
    Tochigi -Alot going on, the green is super and most importantly it's better than Nagaskai.
    Nagaskai - boooooooring

    1. Tochigi - lovely colour and interesting symbol
    2. Chiba - I like the blue but feel like the yellow edging is too thin and washed out, nice start shape
    3. Nagasaki - it's a nice shade of blue but the symbol underwhelms

    1. Chiba a striking blue and an usual star shape

    2. Tochiga wouldn't be my favourite but the green is unusual

    3. Nagasaki nothing striking about it.
