2027 Hobonichi Weeks Akiko Miyakoshi: Once, in Spring《ENG/Tall & Slim/Jan start》

This Weeks book feels just like carrying around an original print artwork by picture book author Akiko Miyakoshi.

The soft spring light, shadows cast by fresh green leaves, and a breeze gently carrying soap bubbles... The overlapping of colors is incredibly soothing, sparking your imagination to wonder what kind of expressions the rabbits are wearing and what they might be talking about.

“This is a spring scene of my eldest daughter playing with a new friend she made when she was around two years old,” Miyakoshi says. “I drew the happiness of her making a friend right after we moved, along with the joy of spring’s arrival.”

The cover has a rough, canvas-like texture and is constructed as a light hardcover with some give to it. The year 2027 is foil-pressed in a sparkling red. The spine is also foil-pressed with “2027” and the words “Unforgettable Moments.” — the creative concept behind the series.

The Hobonichi Techo Weeks comes with a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.

The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.

In addition to the monthly calendars and weekly pages, there are also plenty of grid-lined memo pages.

The back of the book contains bonus pages. Both the Japanese and English editions feature standard favorites like My 100 and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map, among others.

If you’d like to customize the look of your Weeks or add space to store accessories, you can pair it with a Weeks cover.
