Hobonichi Techo 2026 Original Book & Cover - 100% ORANGE: Squirrel Squadron [JPN/A6/April Start]

Hobonichi Techo 2026 Spring A6 Original Book & Cover Set

100%ORANGE Squirrel Squadron

A6 Size / Daily / Apr start / Mon start / Japanese

The picture book Ohikosshi illustrated by 100%ORANGE is now available on a Hobonichi Techo cover.

Ohikkoshi was first released in the monthly magazine Ohanashi Pooka in 2007, and published as a picture book the following year. The squirrels all cross the bridge, go down the stairs and just when you think they all made their way across the street, they climb up the wire fence for a short rest...The sight of them all walking together, one after another, is somehow both delightful and refreshing.




The Original-size cover Squirrel Squadron is completely covered in squirrels. The cute and round eyes, fluffy tails, different-colored fur, and the serious yet somehow goofy expressions on their faces are all irresistible. In the group, there is only one that is looking back.




The white butterfly-stopper pen holders are made of synthetic leather. The way the yellow of the interior peeks out adds to the charm.




The cover interior is an energizing yellow, and you can enjoy the scene of the squirrels running across a wide meadow in single file. The tips of the bookmarks have a white charm in the image of a nut. The pocket on the left also includes 100%ORANGE’s signature.




The pocket on the exterior comes in a warm orange color. If you peek inside, you will find that the squirrels have even made it in here!

Includes 1 Original A6 Book:

Hobonichi Techo 2026 Japanese Original Book (April Start)

A6 Size / Daily / Apr start / Mon start / Japanese

The Hobonichi Techo Original Book is an A6-sized techo with one page per day. This April-start version starts in April 2026 and covers through March 2027.

This original form of the Hobonichi Techo has been loved by many users since its introduction in 2002, and the 2026 edition marks the techo’s 25th year. Its daily pages offer plenty of space to fill despite the book’s compact A6 size. The graph paper offers an open layout for you to neatly lay out writings, clippings, and drawings.

After years of testing, the graph paper has been set to 3.7 mm for optimal writing comfort. The graph paper design allows users to write from any starting point on the page, and the lines have been printed in light colors so users can either customize it to their own layout or ignore it completely.

The Hobonichi Techo includes quotes specially chosen from the Hobonichi website. Each daily page has a quote in Japanese.
