Claim 0:
1. A light emitting device, comprising:
a light source unit; and
a plurality of light guide plates in which light, that is incident from an end and is guided through an interior, is reflected by a prism and is emitted from a light emitting surface,
wherein the plurality of light guide plates are disposed in a row in a state in which angles of the light emitting surfaces differ between adjacent light guide plates, and ends of adjacent light guide plates are butted against each other,
the light source unit is disposed at an end of a starting end light guide plate that is at one end of the plurality of light guide plates, on an opposite side from a side where the adjacent light guide plates are butted against each other, and
an end surface of one of ends that are butted against each other in the plurality of light guide plates is formed on an inclined surface with a reflection function configured to change an angle at which the light is guided and cause the light to be incident on the adjacent light guide plate.
