Daisuke SoshikiBlinkA6 Size (fits Planner and Original)
Popular illustrator Daisuke Soshiki created the original artwork featured on this printed cover with oil pastels and colored pencils for a warm touch.
Soshiki named this cover Blink (Mabataki in Japanese), after the way the bears stare directly at the user.
Two bears, perhaps a mother and child, peek this way from within a grove of pine trees. The white tree trunks, and the foliage in various shades of green, frame the bright yellow fur of the bears.
The cover interior matches the bears. There’s also a bear on the pocket that will bring a smile to your face.
Enjoy each precious moment in your life alongside these two special bears.
*A portion of the sales of this cover will be donated to a Japanese animal rescue shelter Rencontrer Mignon and will be used for animal welfare.

Please Read Before You Buy
In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.
- Actual specifications may vary from listing
Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.
- Color and print may vary slightly
This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
- Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining
When this cover is open flat, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
- Pen holders are rigid at first
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
- Pen holder fits pens up to 13.5 mm wide
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
- Avoid storing in hot and humid places
Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
