Description

Please read before you buy In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order. The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River / Tomoe River S paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry. Please note that we will not replace the packaging for the products if it has rips or damage.

  • Great entry to Hobonichi
Great entry level planner to the Hobonichi world. The Avec allows you to try it out and see if it is a good fit for 6 months instead of committing to the whole year. It arrived in a timely amount of time. The size is perfect to throw in a work bag or use as a journal. The Tomoe River paper is really nice to write on with both gel pens and fountain pens. The Avec is a good value for the money spent. ... show more

  • Planner for everything!!
Great paper for fountain pens!! Been using this style planner for years and it’s always great quality!

  • Functions and versatility.
This planner is exactly what I wanted out of a planner. With the three different calendar types, I am able to plan finances monthly, exercise, health, and meals weekly, and daily agendas and notes. I love the feel of the paper, especially with the right pen (I use Tumi gel) and the overall dotted design letting me write big and small without the anxiety of crossing lines. I’ve been buying these for years and will continue to do so! ... show more

  • Great buy
I have enjoyed the Hobonichi Techo cousin Jul-Dec. This is my first Hobonichi Techo. I love the size and the quality of the paper. I am using it for appointments and a journal.

  • Best size for my needs!!!
I CAN'T emphasize how happy I am with this notebook. I have the weekly and the A6 and they are great for what I use them for but I needed more room for journaling and the A6 was a little too tight. This is the perfect size. (If only there was an in between. HA HA HA! The notebook came earlier than expected which was a nice surprise for people like me that are absolutely impatient to get a new journal! Packed well and all that jazz. Once the year is up, I might get another or go in with the A5 yearly. I kind of am enjoying carrying this size though. Bonus: This size fits perfectly in the covers I used to use for my other non Hobo journals like my Scribbles that Matter, Leichtrum, etc. Nice to not have to splurge on a new cover. I do RECOMMEND getting a cover since the original ones are pretty lightweight. DO KNOW: The inside is in JAPANESE. But if you don't really care about the quote on the bottom of the dailies or the pages in the back, the rest is pretty self explanatory :) Plus you will learn some Japanese calendar days! ;) ... show more

  • Love the A5 cousin avec
I have decided mid year that I like the A5 size, but I was using the A6 size. I was able to buy the hobonichi cousin avec which is divided into a half year. It’s working perfectly for me!

  • Among my top 2 companies for Planners
I love Japanese planners and the paper they use in them . Hobonichi is among my top two Japanese planner companies. The paper is great and no ghosting on the backside of paper.
