    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

    • @fudefan

      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.

  • @osirisgolad

    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.
