Say hello to the Hobonichi Techo - one of the best selling planners from Japan. It is a planner, but it can be so much more than that. Use it as a place to record your thoughts, sketches, and more. The pages are made with Tomoe River paper, which is known for being very thin and lightweight while still being fairly resistant to ink bleeding through.
Renowned picture book author Keiko Shibata is celebrated for her captivating works, including the Meganeko series, the SHIROKUMA series, and the PANDOROBOU “Bread Thief” series. Her picture books have consistently been industry favorites, garnering widespread acclaim. In 2023, Hobonichi initiated a collaboration with Shibata, introducing the PANDOROBOU series as an exclusive Loft release in Japan. One of Shibata's illustrations featured in the Hobonichi Weeks depicts a charming scene where a girl in a red skirt and a cat, Aoki-san, exchange bows. This unique yet endearing interaction between human and animal captivates viewers, ensuring that the scene remains eternally enchanting with each glance.
