Hobonichi 2026 browsing

For 2 years I've used a Hobonichi Techo A5 journal for my planning. Now trying to decide what covers etc to get for 2026. Navigating my way thru what I like, vs what's Japan exclusive, or even Hobonichi Japan only. Expect to get all from Art From The Heart in Harrogate.

Was going to get a Junji Ito "Tomie" manga Hobonichi cover next year. Then having watched today's many hours preview I favoured something else. Which I now find is Hobonichi Japan store exclusive & ridiculously expensive! Now veering towards something else, very nice, that I can get from Yorkshire.

I'm very lucky to have a good friend in Japan who could help with this. But this time around it's easier for me to get the goodies from the Harrogate shop. Who will charge a bit more than Hobonichi direct and also Amazon Japan, but will save me masses on shipping costs and customs/tax, and I'll have the goodies fast.

Here's my blog post from 2024 about how I use a Hobonichi A5 journal for planning and journalling. My system is self-designed, and established itself really quickly on me first starting with Hobonichi in 2024. I'm still doing things the same way now.

As always, if you find somehing that truly can only be bought in Japan, I'm happy to try and get things for you.
