When will these pens be back in stock!
Not sure about that, sorry!
50 doller ah
Pretty good value!
My hobonichi 5 year had a similar problem. My zebra dot pens bled through but my midliners didn't
A Hobonichi rep told me in late October that they'll reach out to everyone who filled out the form by mid November, but I haven't heard anything yet.
Very Beautiful
It sure is a pretty one!
Oh yesssss!
perfect for quick, fast-drying notes on the go
@fudefan good thing, that I don’t leave home too much. ;)
Is the Tomitaro A5 Notebook still made with #7 or is that now Sanzen too? I noticed it’s on their website and says “renamed from plain to grid notebook for 2025”. Very curious about this hopefully you can help me out thanks in advance G
I don't know about the Tomitaro specifically, but would guess that it's a mix of Sanzen and Tomoegawa, just like the regular notebook.
@ Awe man, thanks. I sent them an e-mail I hope I get a response.
@@fudefan They said it’s all Sanzen now :(
i like it🎉
Nooooo!
Hobonichi has now acknowledged the problem. I posted another video with more details.
@ TY will watch
Perfect for my essay! I must get one. 🤗
Highly recommended!
this video so calming
Thank you 😁
I like the haloing of To-ro.
Me too!
MB 149, right?😅
Yep
What pen and size is that? I really love it.
There are three pens in the video: Asvine V200, Newton Sumpter, and Esterbrook Estie. All three have fude nibs.
@@fudefan Thank you so much!
I got A6 5 year for the first time and it bleeds and feathers even though i only use EF nibs and I'm a light handed writer. I'm so annoyed
Understandable. You could try to submit Hobonichi's inquiry form, posted on the website on October 11th, but I did that two weeks ago and haven't heard anything back yet.
That Syun-gyo looks really awesome.
It does!
To-Ro reminds me of cantelope melon.
I can see that 😁
Are you finding a large difference between the recto and verso of a single sheet of Sanzen's Tomoe River? I have a pack of loose leaf where there is about a twenty-five degree hue difference when I write with Iroshizuku Syo-ro on each side of the same identical sheet. I've seen differences with other papers before, but not to this extent. The edges are also much less crisp and the strokes are much thinner on the recto than on the verso; it's almost like the ink doesn't want to come out of the nib and stick to the paper on the recto side of the paper. That would also explain why the hue changes, because if the ink is sitting entirely on top of the paper, you are not viewing the ink "through the paper fibres", which are obviously slightly yellow.
That's an interesting observation. I haven't noticed that so far but will do some more tests.
I'm a fan of dusty purples so Syun-gyo is my favorite.
Mine too! I think it's going to be popular.
On the uniball website they have announced a partnership with Hobonichi. That’s a hard right from fountain pens.
I would love to see those pictures of those nibs on that magazine. Can't find it on google.
It's from Shumi no Bungubako ("Hobby Stationery Box") issue 69. You can find the Kindle version on Amazon: amzn.asia/d/1avaytl
I tested my Hobonichi English Cousin and it bleeds and feathers just as bad
Oh no! Have you contacted the store you bought it from? What do they say?
@@fudefan I haven't contacted them, I bought it directly from hobonichi.
I don't even have ghosting on my 2025 Hon and Weeks, but my 2025 5 year book is a hot mess of bleed through with only gel pens and mildliners.
I've now seen a few reports about problems with Cousin as well, but the other planners seem fine. It's a mystery.
So disappointing. I don't use fountain pens but my gel pens and mildliners bleed through. Returning my book to Amazon for a refund. Edited to add that I've watched a ton of videos of 5 yr flip-thru's of 2022, 2023 and 2024 5 year Hobonichis and have not seen a single dot of bleed through on the paper.
Indeed. Seems to be a problem with this the 2025 edition only. Not clear why. It does seem like a bad batch.
I am having the same issue with my 5 year Techo 2025-2029 as well. I agree it seems to be affecting it the most. I’ve reached out to Hobonichi and have seemed no reply.
I finally got a response, and there's also a notice on 1101.com. I just posted a new video about it.
This sketchbook lacks texture and feels cheap. Neorah’s paper has the perfect tooth for sketching.
Have you gotten any response yet? I’m seeing this with a lot of the 2025 5 years.
Nothing yet. I've tried to contact them twice already.
Same. Reached out twice for my 5-Year. Also my 2025 Weeks is much broader ink lines than my other hobonichis. 😢
Tysm for this mindful analysis
You're welcome!
😢 I bought my first 5-year for 2025, so it is disappointing that I won't be able to use my fountain pens
Indeed! I was expecting to see some kind of response from Hobonichi but nothing so far.
@@fudefan They updated the product page with a disclaimer that there may be some bleed though, right after saying the paper is resistant to bleed through. Its crazy :(
If you want a 1930s design on a budget, look at the Kaweco Dia2 line!
Not even close.

What are the remaining two nibs that aren't visible in the video in the bottom-left of the catalog page? I suppose the one in the corner isn't a 3B Kugel/Ballpoint by any chance...
"Flex" and "Twin Line".
@@fudefan Thank you for taking the time to answer.
Music too loud
I'll keep that in mind next time.
What a beautiful pen! Pilot was ahead of its time!
Indeed! A nib like this would be awfully expensive to make today.
I heard this year, they are coming out with horizontal-ruled tomoe river notebooks! My handwriting looks neater on ruled than on grid paper. Why some people's handwriting looks neat on grid paper, i will never know. Can't wait to get my hands on some.
You're right. There's a lined one now: www.1101.com/store/techo/en/2025/pc/detail_toolstoys/tt_linednote/
This was extremely helpful! I got the Davinci for my plotter because of you and I’m very happy with it.
Glad I could help!
What's the name?? Just say the name, i need this matte pen)))
it's an Esterbrook Estie with a fude nib by Mark Bacas.
I would have bought it, if only the pipe slides inside when not in use 😣
We'll have to wait for a Metal version of the Kurutoga Pipe Slide 😁
Beautiful nib. I really want to try their oblique signature nib. What size notebook is that?
The one I write in? It's an A6 Hobonichi Plain Notebook.
That nib is slightly bent.. Right?
Yep
What is that hole in the middle?
To be able to see the Kuru-Toga engine rotating...
As @tenchimasaki7319 mentioned, it's to see the mechanism
❤ye, pen, or ink. Kah? ❤

入手困難なシャーペン😂
Es una hermosa pluma 👍🏼
👍
Japanese invented the shut valve? If not, stop stealing name of common designs. Btw, Majohn is very Chinese. And there is currently none Japanese making eye dropper in such style.
Thanks for your comment. I'd recommend Binder's website and Sunami-san's book if you want to know more about inki-dome eyedroppers.
What are the two paper brands? 🤯
I think it was Graphilo and bank paper.
Majohn denies its Japanese origins. Shutting vale was a common designs around 1920s found in Waterman, Eversharp, etc.
Binder's website has a good article about this filling system.
WOOOW. NOW WE PEN FANATICS DON'T NEED TO OPEN TO LET MORE INK IN WHEN VAC IS DOWN! HALLELUYER 🎉
😁
Lovely! What pens did you?
Those are Moonman T1 fountain pens.
Putting a 1911 nib on that seems like sacrilege
Haha!
