・When goldfish became popular in Japan...
Goldfish were originally developed by breeding mutated crucian carp, but when did they first become popular in Japan? Goldfish are said to have first appeared in Japan from China. Looking back at Japanese history, it seems that goldfish have been known since the Kamakura period. The trend of raising goldfish began to spread during the Edo period, when wealthy people at the time enjoyed watching goldfish swim in imported bowls. Then, during the Kasei Bunka period in the late Edo period, goldfish began to be mass-produced, making them more accessible to the common people, and they eventually became established as pets.・Goldfish are a good motif
Even today, cute goods and yukata featuring goldfish are popular. Goldfish have also been used as a motif in artwork since the Edo period. At the time, bright red fish were new and beautiful.
