After many years of customer requests for a plain notebook that feels just like the Hobonichi Techo, Hobonichi have introduced the Hobonichi Plain Notebook.
This notebook has Tomoe River paper, opens completely flat, and contains graph paper divided into 4 colors.
The Tomoe River paper is the same thin, durable paper as that used in the Hobonichi Techo. This allows the 240-page book to stay at a mere 8mm thick, giving you plenty of room to fill to your heart’s content.
The 3.7 millimeter graph paper is also the same as that of the Japanese-edition Hobonichi Techo Original. The color of the ink on the page changes every 60 pages (red / blue / green / purple), making it easy to split the book into several themes or use the colors as a way to more easily find old entries.
The notebook size is the same as the A6 Planner, which makes it compatible with any of the Planner’s Hobonichi Techo covers. The cover is great for storing items like pens or sticky notes, and provides a very convenient user experience.
You can also buy several notebooks and establish a single theme to keep across each book.
The notebook is also a great supplement to the Hobonichi Techo, or simply a smaller-size notebook to keep by your side for filling with lots of writings or drawings.
