Hello everyone. Today brings the daily Hobonichi Techo Kaigi 2027 posts to a close. Boy, what a month.

The items I’m eyeing are none other than the ONE PIECE magazine series, released today, October 1st!



It’s already been five years since that surprising day when One Piece — a favorite manga I’ve read continuously since my student days — unexpectedly turned into a Hobonichi Techo!

In order to spend every single day in 2027 alongside quotes from One Piece, the techo I’ve chosen is the HON: Very Very Merry!



The Going Merry design is a perfect fit for the Year of the Sheep, and that striking, bright orange color is gorgeous.

You can see the HONs from 2024 and 2026 in the background. I like how they get more personalized with through wear and tear as the year goes on.



Personally, I also have a strong emotional attachment to the special bonus pages I helped design. First up is the “Timeline,” which neatly organizes the intricate, intertwining plotlines of the story!



Then there’s “30 Very Specific Things We Love About One Piece,” featuring a curated selection of iconic scenes gathered from all of your submissions on X and via email! No matter how many times I read these pages, they’re so amazing.

Now then, what about my other techos and stationery, you ask...? I’m sure I’ll end up buying more later, but for now, I’ve decided to get all of the One Piece themed items for 2027!



Sticky notes, pencil boards, clear files, and sticker sets — this release is packed with super practical stationery items. They look like they’ll be great for daily use and will make writing in my techo even more fun.

And on top of that, the Small Drawer Pouch “DON!” — featuring ONE PIECE icons designed on bold red tie-fabric — is so cool. Let's try packing it with both previously released stationery and the new stationery items that launched today!





... Look at how much fits inside!





Even after putting in bulky items like the Don!! Stamp and the rotating stamp, the zipper closed smoothly!



The clear files also fit perfectly into the back pocket!

When you unify everything like this the colors and tone align so seamlessly that it looks incredible. It feels almost like a treasure chest stuffed with all kinds of stationery. All the details are compiled on our special feature page, so if you’re curious about the One Piece themed items, please give it a look!

With that, the Techo Kaigi 2027 series comes to a close. There are so many choices that it’s easy to get lost, but we hope you all find your perfect techo partner for next year!
