Artistic Forces/Josei Guntai

The Joshi Guntai or Joshi-Gun for short is one of the factions of Artistic Forces.

Description
Formed by the female personnel who are anime-esque teenage girls and young adult women, the Joshi Guntai is a derivative of the Rising Sun Self-Defense Force and the eastern hemisphere of Animatopia that went their feminine ways from the mostly dominated men. Unlike the Rising Sun Self-Defense Force, which originally and exclusively recruited for the nursing services, and minorly populated as female personnel who are permitted and admitted to join the armed forces, they have recruitments in many different roles of its military personnel than the exclusivity for medications in favor of militarization of girls and women to dominate this faction.

To add these factional perspectives, they honorably scorn the traits of Yandere, referring to a person who is sweetly kind at first, only to go unstable, obsessive, and violent when it comes to their beloved, and their military usually specializes such of these tactics: otaku stuff, anime-influenced ties, moe anthropomorphic militarization, modern and advanced Japanese technologies, raw tried-and-tested firepower, improvised weaponry and the most important of all is providing Mecha Musume and the old, modern arsenal of military equipment, including weapons, vehicles, aircraft and vessels that are either no longer used, replaced with something new or currently in use by the JSDF. For those who want to perform special force operations within Joshi Rikugun, they wear Hitaikakushi on their heads, and their program is the Yurei ops, specializing sneaky and special tactics.

With the pink cherry blossom and the magenta star at their respective sides as their symbols, the first one represents spring, a time of renewal, and the fleeting nature of life that make people merry, and the second one represents something beautiful, good and positive as well as its military strength. For their colors, pink is the color of universal love of oneself and others, and the sweet side of red that represents friendship, affection, harmony, inner peace, and approachability, while magenta represents universal love at the highest level, promotes compassion, kindness and cooperation, and encourages a sense of self respect and contentment in those who actually use it. Besides, both pink and magenta are the favorite colors for women and girls alike.
