Do you have any idea who everyone else in the flags was based on??

Hm…if you’re asking if any of the Flags’ personalities directly align with any of irl Chuuya’s friends, Wikipedia hasn’t given me a whole lot of insight into that.

I’ve mentioned in this post that I hc Piano Man as Saburo Moroi. That’s the one I’m most confident about.

Chuuya also fell for a couple of actresses in his youth named Yasuko Hasegawa and Michiko. I think Michiko was just a crush and a muse, but Yasuko was his first love and a lifelong bestie. So that could have been the inspiration behind Lippmann.

For any other possible Flags influences I’d really have to reach though. None of his most notable besties really stood out to me as having anything to do with Iceman Doc or Albatross. Not even his ride or die Hideo Kobayashi. But then, wiki pages tend to just list accomplishments over anything about someone’s personality.

If you care to go into random headcanon territory, I did consider Iceman as Jiro Aoyama, an art critic and antique collector/appraiser. He was known for his “genius, discerning eye that could see straight into the essence of an antique to critique it harshly”, which reminded me a bit of our astute assassin. Chuuya’s friend group would regularly gather at his house for "Aoyama Gakuin" meetings, and he was known to make their mutual bff Kobayashi cry at drinking parties.

I also considered assigning Iceman as Testsutaro Kawakami, the Surya member who brought Chuuya into the group and introduced him to Moroi to begin with. He, Chuuya, and Kobayashi also started a magazine together called “Idiot Group” or “The Idiots” which could maybe have something to do with the Flags. Yasuko even ended up publishing a few poems through them. Kawakami and Chuuya were also really close to the very end. Chuuya sent him a letter of farewell when he got sick and Kawakami proceeded to visit his bedside every day.

Chuuya probably knew multiple doctors, between his dad and Mori and such. That could have inspired the Doc personality. For the sake of giving Doc a name though I just went with Hiroshi Tamiya. He played cello for Surya but is most famous for being a really important microbiologist.

Albatross is an enigma.

The Tank Primer Vol 1 Art Book Review

The Tank Primer is delightful art book by illustrator Morinaga Yo documenting the inner workings of the WWI British tank Mark 1 ( commemorating its 100 year creation since 1916 ) as well as other early armored vehicles that led up to its inception. I have no special interest in tanks or warfare but the artist’s lively drawings caught my eye, the style and presentation somewhat similar to Miyazaki Hayao’s Daydream Notes.

Books as such are particularly popular in Japan because of a thriving fanbase for miniature model toolkits, and are often commissioned by model makers like Tamiya or Modelkasten.

The lively and beautifully detailed drawings and illustrations by Morinaga Yo make for an interesting read, even if you aren’t particularly into tanks or understand the Japanese captions. Recommended.

The artist also has a couple of other art books which I am planning to review in the near future.

“The Tank Primer Vol 1″ art book details :

Dimensions – 25.7 x 21 x 0.8 cm Soft cover, 72 pages Full color, In Japanese ( book contains mostly art work )
