Bowl is called "Wan" or "Owan" in Japan, and refers to a category of tableware that is deep in depth.

In particular, Wan is designed to be lightweight because it is meant to be lifted with one hand, whereas a bowl that is not lifted but left on the table is called “Hachi”.

The most common types of Japanese bowls are the Rice Bowl for serving white rice, which is the basis of Japanese cuisine, the Soup Bowl for serving miso soup. These bowls are considered “Wan" types because they are supposed to be lifted for use. Ramen bowls, Donburi bowl, "Kobachi" –small bowls, are classified as “Hachi" because they are supposed to be used while on the table.

However, of course, you may use any type of bowls for your own convenience.
