Noritake was founded in 1904 (Meiji 37) with the aim of manufacturing dinner sets for export. A dinner set is a set of tableware with a set size and purpose for the number of people. Since successfully manufacturing such sets in 1914 (Taisho 3), the company has developed and sold shapes and patterns to meet market needs.
At times, the company has sought added value beyond the tableware's original function and design in order to provide products that are in line with the times.
This trend accelerated after the period of high economic growth. When consumers had the financial means to spend on interior design, Noritake sold ceramic reproductions of works by painters, calligraphers, and illustrators. In the mid-1960s, when the penetration rate of black-and-white televisions exceeded 90%, the company also began to produce melamine children's tableware decorated with characters from anime and puppet shows.
The 1970s marked an era of fashion and diversification of everyday items. Noritake, which places emphasis on developing high-value-added products that add color to life, began manufacturing and selling tableware in 1977 in collaboration with a famous fashion designer. This was the beginning of the boom in designer and character products in the ceramics industry. This led to an increase in design collaborations and joint development with artists and other companies.
In recent years, with the growth of content businesses such as manga and anime, the needs and target demographics of character products have expanded. The expansion of sales networks with the spread of online services has increased consumers' options, and products are increasingly required to have value other than functionality and a story. Against this backdrop, collaborations that utilize the mutual advantages of companies are not uncommon.
During its long history, Noritake has cultivated the technology to commercialize high-quality models with rich colors and delicate patterns. Enjoy the world of co-creation created by sharing the desire to utilize this to deliver products that resonate with your heart.

Legoland Nagoya did not expect it to be so fun! I originally went with the mentality of &quot;take a baby to punch a card&quot;, but our family didn&#39;t want to leave from morning to night. We really closed the park when we got stuck [laughs and tears R] 🌟 Main feeling: 🧍&zwj;♀️🧍&zwj;♂️ people! very! less! When we went there was Monday, almost all the projects were queued between 5-10 minutes, and the slowest was waiting for half an hour. It&#39;s really too friendly to families with babies, and I&#39;m not afraid of the kind of ～🎢 project that collapses in line is more interesting than expected! Many projects are played with parents and children, children are not afraid, adults will not be bored. roller coasters, driving schools, fire engines, mini submarines, etc.... Each one wants to brush twice! 💰 The price-performance ratio king ticket is in the early 200s, and the price-performance ratio is really full! By the way, I found a hidden benefit on the spot: 20% discount on birthday month! All toys in the store are 20% off! 🎂 Choose the option of &quot;Birthday Discount&quot; when buying tickets on the official website. You can show your ID on the day you enter the park. ～ Nobody really mentioned this but it can save a lot! 📌 Little Tips: There is a food street at the door, and you can find fast food in the park. Don&rsquo;t worry about eating. I personally recommend the restaurant in the park. The burger and fries in the building block shape are quite distinctive. The unlimited refill of drinks is also very powerful. ～

Port Of Nagoya Public Aquarium

Ok, this is a refined Nagoya Port Aquarium review (about 100 words): - - Nagoya Port Aquarium is one of Japan&#39;s top aquariums, with a large scale and distinctive theme. The most shocking thing is its main sink, &quot;Sea of Japan&quot;, the sight of huge whale sharks and fish swimming together is breathtaking. The Penguin and Dolphin Show at the Antarctic Tour is vibrant and interesting to observe up close. The building itself is modern and combines the harbour scenery with the perfect setting for sunset. The content is full and the facilities are perfect. Whether it is a parent-child trip or a couple date, it is very worth a visit. It is a must-visit attraction in Nagoya. ---**Feature concentration:*** **Large scale, prominent theme** (Japan Sea, Antarctic Tour)* **Core highlights**: Giant whale shark sink, penguin pavilion, dolphin show* **Good environment**: modern architecture, port view, sunset beauty* **Good comprehensive experience**: suitable for all kinds of tourists, Complete facilities* **Summary**: Nagoya must visit attractions, highly recommended.

I went at night, and I was in a time-limited attraction during the day. The shrine is open all day, so I went to see it at night. There are no people in the shrine. I saw a few buildings with ancient charm. I also saw a wine association listing various wines, which was very interesting.
