I'll contribute to this discussion later. Prepare your eyes.
Yes and no.
Curry is, and has always been, Indian origin.
However, the type of "gravy" like curry sauce that Japanese eat came to Japan from England, which adopted the curry powder from India while its occupation, and modified it to thick soup like sauce.

You can't just straight out say "curry is british origin" or you'll have angry offended Indian and Pakistani on your ass.
