Can you read the signature on this teapot?

Hi folks!

I am trying to determine who makes this teapot. It's very pretty, quite ornate, but I'm baffled by the signature. I can't even tell which way is up with the signature! I've taken a few photos. Anyone know who makes this pot / who signed it?

Thank you in advance!

I can tell you it's Japanese, and the mark will be correct if you turn the first picture counter clockwise a quarter. I can't read it, but you could try the pottery board: https://community.ebay.com/t5/Pottery-Glass-Porcelain/bd-p/275?nobounce If the link doesn't work, it's found under Groups, then categories.
Also, with that spout, it's actually a chocolate pot.
