Hobonichi Techo Cousin Book A5 2026

The Hobonichi Techo Cousin Book 2026 A5 Daily Planner is one of the most beloved planning tools worldwide, thanks to its spacious page-per-day format. For 2026, it is available in two language editions, selectable at purchase: Japanese or English.

The A5 size provides plenty of room for writing, pasting photos or tickets, sketching, or creating customized layouts. It is perfect as a personal planner, work organizer, family notebook, or even a memory album to share with others. Thanks to its large size, the Cousin is often used as a desktop planner that always stays within reach.

After years of testing, the graph paper grid has been set to 3.7 mm, ensuring optimal writing comfort. The lightly printed lines make it easy to customize layouts or simply ignore them. Each month is printed in a different color to make visual organization more intuitive.

The difference between the two language versions lies in the daily quotes:

• The Japanese version includes a daily quote in Japanese selected from the Hobonichi website.
• The English version includes an English quote every two-page spread.

Both editions feature an exclusive section of the Cousin format: the weekly spreads, which display a full week across two pages with time schedules for clear and practical planning.

The book features thread-stitch binding, similar to that of a dictionary, allowing it to lay flat for comfortable writing. The pages are made of Tomoe River paper, thin and lightweight yet durable, famous for enhancing fountain pen ink without feathering.

Beyond the daily pages, the Hobonichi Techo Cousin also includes yearly calendars, monthly calendars, and a yearly index, along with bonus pages filled with special content such as Memories 2026, 12 Switches to Help You Focus, and For a Comfortable Night’s Sleep.

The Hobonichi Techo Cousin Book 2026 is the ideal choice for anyone seeking a complete A5 planner, versatile and available in the preferred language.
