It's never been in Nagoya AFAIR. It was in Fukuoka in 2013, and Tokyo in 2009, 2005, and 2000.
Other cities that have been repeats are St Petersburg (1998, 2002, 2006), Beijing (2004, 2010), and Barcelona (2014, 2015). As for countries:

Europe - 11 times
Russia - 4 times (St Peterburg x 3, Sochi)
France - 3 times (Paris, Lyon, Marseilles)
Spain - 2 times (Barcelona)
Germany - 1 time (Munich)
Italy - 1 times (Turin)
North America - 4 times (soon 5)
