    Yes, Japanese. Look at the "Dai Nippon (Great Japan) Printed Marks (1920 - 1940)" section on Gotheborg and you will see the first 3 characters within the blue circle of marks (starting at about 3-4 o'clock on the bottom of your pieces and reading clockwise) illustrated. I suspect that the blue marks are for the maker of the blank and the red ones in the middle are for the decorator.
