The village emblem was adopted on Dec 17th 1970 but there is no flag law. The blue flag has a white village emblem in the center. The emblem is a stylized katakana オシノ Oshino. The letter オmakes Mt. Fuji in the center which represents the village's future strong development meanwhile the circle symbolizes the villagers’ conformity. As a whole, it represents the village will make a leap to the future with people’s conformity.
