This notepad is 155 sheets and the same size as the A6 Hobonichi Techo Planner / Original books, so it fits perfectly into planner covers. The paper inside is blank except for a lightly printed illustration, and the pages are glued in instead of sewn, making them very easy to rip out for shopping lists or passing along messages.

Illustrator Saki Obata has designed the artwork on the cover and in the pages of this notepad. The front cover depicts a cityscape’s crisp morning air while the back cover illustrates the tranquility of late afternoon, just before the sun says “good night” on the horizon. The pages on the notepad are printed with a scene from midnight hours when everyone has gone to bed, while the moon shines down with its silver face.



This notepad will remind you of the preciousness of everyday, which is really what the Hobonichi Techo is all about.
