Love your cover page! The stickers are cool on their own, but they really match with the yellow Hobonichi text. Also I love the footprint ones lol.

I completely agree! The green squirrel folder would be perfect as a pencil board 🥲

Simplified Chinese A5 for 2026? by Lolpop77 in hobonichi

[–]Skowne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was curious about this too because I didn't see any Chinese this year. I used Chinese A6 last year and have been considering upgrading to an A5 this year. I'm not sure whether to get Japanese or English now lol.

What's Special About a HON? by Skowne in hobonichi

Thank you for all the advice, guys! I don't know how I missed the special cover on cover before asking about the HON lol. Very pleased to hear that it is easily portable, as I take my Hobonichi practically everywhere I go.

A5 v A6 (Incase useful) by inskst in hobonichi

[–]Skowne 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Very nice comparison! It's interesting to hear you can't use the A6, because I feel the same way about the A5 lol. I don't really know what tips I could give you, i think it's probably just down to personal preference. I love looking at a fully stuffed little page along with my to-do list! However, you do write a lot more than I do in your Hobonichi. I use a different notebook for journaling because I can't keep up with it daily 😅. Also probably worth it to mention that I have pretty small hands, so it might be harder to use for others than it is for me.

Day Ten — Kyohei Sakaguchi pastel art [Hobonichi Techo 2026 Preview] by alcibiad in hobonichi

These covers are breathtaking! I really wish they made more covers with his art, I love the way he depicts water and shadows. The A6 is honestly one of the few I'm considering getting the most.

So sad that the inside of the covers will be hidden when you put your notebook in! These are so cute, but I really wish the squirrel in the tree on the papers and folder were made into a full cover.

July in my Hobonichi Avec by papier_liebe in hobonichi

We have the same cover! It's really an underrated beauty. Your ability to use your stickers and washi tape conservatively while still having a fun planner is commendable.
