This was such a helpful guide! Using a hobonichi a6 right now but I’m strongly considering Jibun Techo Days for 2022. However, the techos halved into two is what’s holding me back… this gave a lot of clarity.
This is great- thanks for sharing. I don't use Weeklies so this interests me. It's nice to see that Jibun is listening to their consumers to add more to their line. I wish Hobonichi would make a MEGA Day free with enough pages for one a day- that would be my planner peace.
Im really excited about this addition. If hobonichi would loose the quotes at the bottom of the original techo...I think that could work for me too...so I’m quite hopeful about this one!
@@2tinytreasures I sometimes log my day, sometimes not, so I don't think I could ignore the timeline down the middle in the Jibun. I just like seeing that companies are making changes based on consumer feedback. I think many people were disappointed when they got the Day Free and it didn't have as many pages - I feel like I need to buy an extra notebook to make sure I have enough pages, then I'm into the two book nonsense. That's why I'm considering going to Cousin and just ignoring the weeklies. Planner decisions!
Victoria Hall i was surprised how skinny the Day Free is. Have you tried Stalogy? I really love it! It’s truly my first super filled journal. It really worked well for me this past year. Pretty sure that’s what is going into my hobonichi A5 cover for 2021
@@2tinytreasures Nice to know you're thinking the same thing, and one of the main reasons I'll be buying Jibun :-D (thanks for sharing all your planners btw - it's super helpful)
The DAYS is sold out worldwide. I bullet journal in a cafe notes b6 slim. The days seemed ideal with all calendars, lists and trackers. Looking forward to using it in 2021.
Last year I bought the Biz A5 but this year I am getting the A5 Lite Slim. I don't know how different it will be from last year, but I like the extra room the A5 gives me compared to the mini. I got mine from Vanness Pens in the US, so I didn't need to pay for international shipping.
The THIN paper is Kokuyo's answer to TR paper for journals. It features a harder sizing which makes the paper more resistant to erasure (i.e. -- it doesn't crinkle as easily) as well as reducing the ghosting relative to TR paper. It is fountain pen friendly as well, but it will not show the same sort of sheen that you would get from TR river paper. IOW, it's designed to be a more practical paper over the TR paper, at the cost of some of the "ink showoff" features of Tomoe River paper.
I wish they would make one with monthly, weekly and daily spreads. Sort of like the Cousin or Cousin Avec, but in B6 slim size. I may try using the daily and the lite together.
The DAYs looks so interesting! I use the Jibun Techo mini and a Bullet Journal, the DAYs seems like a good mix of the two. Also, I think the zipper pocket is an insert because I have the mini one. It slides into the back of the cover and adds 3 card slots and the zipper pocket. I've never seen an actual cover with the zipper pocket but I could have just missed it :)
such a interesting development in 2021...I love the idea but I am not sure how I feel about the strong red line going down the center. I sometimes wonder if I created my own 'dream' planner would I be satisfied.....probably not lol. I can't wait to watch a plan with me from you ;)
I thought the same initially but think I can mentally got past it since I really need the timeline structure. Maybe next year they will make it more neutral grey
Hi I’m super excited I just got my first one as a gift from my fiancé and it looked overwhelming. I received the Jibun Techo Life and I’m searching what to do or how to start? Any advice ?
How exciting! What a sweet gift and will be so helpful with wedding plans. Definitely save your special days in the Life book. Milestones like the day u get ur dress and book the reception hall etc
@@2tinytreasures thank you. Definitely will keep it on the planner things for the wedding. do you happen to have some of the Japanese things translated ? Like the instructions ?
Yes, it does! I was surprised that it fit, but I tried it just now. If I have the Hobonichi A5 on the right with just one flap...then I can easily fit the jibun techo b6 slim into the big left pocket.
Hobo weeks I carry in my purse and is my catch all calendar on the fly but my jibun is specifically for my students curriculum plans and planning out my work day hour by hour.there isn’t enough room in the week for that much detail
Amazon Japan has them now. I think jetpens released this week too. The other accessories are available on amazon usa now. I added as many of the links as I could find for now from amazon usa in the description.

Honestly I wish jibun would combine the jan-jun and jul-dec techos into one notebook 🥲 but I guess they were aiming for the thin techos
Love your introduction! Thx 💕
Awesome, this sounds a really great new product!!!! I'll go and get this one!
Hope you enjoy it, too! It’s a very efficient and practical layout :)
@@2tinytreasures I bought grey and I am holding it. Love it.
2tinytreasures did you import them from Japan?
I ordered directly from Amazon Japan. They charge all fees and taxes upfront there and then ship directly to us.
Ooh I wondered if the lists repeated again. Love this layout

I had thought about that too since the cover accommodates a “system” and I don’t use the “life” book 📖 I could use the lite and days together.

You’re right about the zipper insert. I found it later. I’ll do an update with the setup in the new cover

It’s only red on Sundays and Japanese holidays. (Blue on Saturdays and gray for everything else.)

Thank you for this. I'm ex tied. Question:do they have this very same type of pla nerd in an a6 size? BLESSINGS
I think they only make A5 and b6 slim but I’m not sure if DAYS is in A5
Ok thanks
Hello there. Grateful that I got to see this video. Does the Jibun fits in the Hobo A5 left pocket?
Yes, it does! I was surprised that it fit, but I tried it just now. If I have the Hobonichi A5 on the right with just one flap...then I can easily fit the jibun techo b6 slim into the big left pocket.
Yaaay! Perfect. Thank you.
Where did you buy the Days? I can't find one. Thanks!
Jetpens had them but I don’t see them now. I ordered directly from Amazon Japan (you can switch to order in English) super easy
@@2tinytreasures Oh, cool. Thank you much!!
Thanks for sharing
So sad! This looked perfect for me! I can't find it anywhere. :(
The DAYS is sold out worldwide.
If you are Facebook, they are popping up on various BST groups.
@@tdslovey I found one & bought it! Yay! lol
@@anumatibeauty9110 Yeah. I am enjoying setting it up. It's perfect for me. Hope you love it.
Just purchased from Jen Pens
Hi~I m wondering know how would u use this jibun techo mini and hobo weeks？Because I already got hobo weeks, now I wanna buy jibun mini days too.😩
Hobo weeks I carry in my purse and is my catch all calendar on the fly but my jibun is specifically for my students curriculum plans and planning out my work day hour by hour.there isn’t enough room in the week for that much detail

I hate the biz line colors. I like the colorful Techo better but need a daily for my thesis.
I think it is not Hobonichi. It is called Kokuyo.
