“Opanchu Usagi” is a character illustrated by KAWAISOUNI!, an illustrator and animator especially popular on social media. The Opanchu Usagi wearing a large “Opanchu” underwear and always in a somewhat “Kawaisou” pitiful situation gives a sense of indescribable cuteness and melancholy.
The bright yellow color of “Opanchu Usagi (Calendar)” makes it eye-catching even inside your bag. It is a Weeks book with an all-over pattern of illustrations related to Japanese events of the year, such as Setsubun demon masks, carp streamer decorations, teru-teru-bozu dolls, and many different Opanchu Usagi. The images for events are exclusive to Hobonichi Techo.
The year 2024 written on the front cover and the spine is in the same mint blue color. The spine has the Opanchu Usagi logo, 2024 wearing a pink ribbon, and an Opanchu.
Your year will become even more delightful with Opanchu Usagi!

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.
The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
The corners of the cover contain light traces of press marks, shines, and lumps. This is an unavoidable part of the manufacturing process.
Strong rubbing or everyday use may cause the foil-press to peel off.
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.
This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Clear Cover may damage the product.
If you’ve used any of these products, we welcome your notes on what you like about them or what led you to buy them so we can share it with customers who are currently considering these products. We’d also love to welcome comments from customers who purchased their techo outside the Hobonichi Store or received their book as a gift.
