The textured cover is a calming shade of brown with the years foil-pressed in gold, and the book contains a dark brown bookmark for a complete look that works well without adding an additional cover.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach page contains the same, easy-to-use 3.7 mm graph paper as the A6 Hobonichi Techo Original, making it perfect for writing or drawing. The paper is a subtle cream color that’s easy on the eyes, and the printing is charcoal gray to allow handwriting to stand out from the page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn each spread, the left page has the date and day of the week for all 5 years, with days of the week written in Japanese.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause each page contains a total of 5 days, a single day’s entry is compact enough to either fill with writing or write a single sentence and feel satisfied with the entry. It’s a perfect setup for those who are worried about being able to continue using a book for 5 years. (Holidays are not listed in the book.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1101.com\/store\/techo\/2025\/detail_images\/fb25_s_jan\/extra_01.jpg\" data-val=\"715\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe right page is a blank page for anything you’d like — continuing entries you couldn’t fit on the left, jotting notes you’d like to leave for the future, pasting items, and more.
