The old one was better!
The old one is also seen as as bad as the flag of Nazi Germany in East and Southeast Asia. Imperial Japan was extremely brutal, and the use of the rising sun flag in modern times is a symbol of fascism in Japan, like the swastika.
All that aside, just based on looks alone, way better flag. The other flag of the emperor with the chrysanthemum is cool too, but I'm sure that one is seen similarly.
