Hobonichi Techo 2027 HON - A5 - Yumi Kitagishi: White Cat and Rabbit's Tea Room

The Hobonichi HON “Yumi Kitagishi: White Cat and Rabbit’s Tea Room” features two original artworks by illustrator Yumi Kitagishi, marking the first time her work has appeared on a HON. The lively dollhouse-inspired design brings together her familiar white cat and a cast of charming animals across the cover.

On the front, a white cat cheerfully greets visitors at the door while rabbits prepare tea and a slice of shortcake. The back features animals gathered inside a house made of books, each absorbed in their reading. Delicate flowers are scattered throughout, while the spine is accented with the year 2027 and a small white cat motif.

The A5-size HON features the same layout as the Hobonichi Techo Cousin, including one-page-per-day spreads and vertical weekly pages for planning your week across a two-page spread. The 3.7 mm grid provides a structured space for writing, scheduling, journaling, sketches, and notes, while the thin and durable Tomoe River paper offers a smooth writing experience. Thread-stitched binding allows the book to open completely flat at 180 degrees and stay open while you write.

The back of the book includes useful bonus pages. The English edition features My 100, Favorites, the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block, Hard-to-Translate Japanese Words, and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map. The Japanese edition includes My 100, Favorites, Solar Terms, Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block, Useful Sign Language Phrases to Know, and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map.
