Hobonichi Techo

Hobonichi Techo's 2027 lineup includes two announced collaborations: a 17-item Hello Kitty release on September 1, 2026 and a 14-item One Piece release on October 1, 2026. The 2026 edition sold over 1.1 million copies.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated 20h ago

Two collaborations define the announced 2027 Hobonichi Techo lineup. Hello Kitty, from Sanrio, returns to the line with 17 planner and stationery items on September 1, 2026, at 11:00 AM. Sales run through the Hobonichi online store, the TOBICHI direct-run stores in Tokyo and Kyoto, Loft stores nationwide, Amazon, and Rakuten. A Hobonichi Techo Store at Gransta Tokyo begins selling the items on September 16. The designs use the 1970s Hello Kitty Classic style, and the poses are exclusive to Hobonichi Techo. Original (A6) and Cousin (A5) planner covers show Kitty playing with or reading her planner, surrounded by ribbons, apples, and her friend Joey. The weeks planner uses a necktie fabric weave for poses such as sitting to read or putting the planner over her face. Protective covers, the upright storage pouch stappo, the flat pen case comodo, clear files, writing boards, stickers, stamps, and sticky notes round out the release.

One Piece follows on October 1, 2026, with 14 items available at the Hobonichi Online Store and other retailers. This is the fifth year of the collaboration between One Piece magazine and Hobonichi. The lineup includes A6 and A5 planner covers, the hardcover HON, the weekly weeks planner, and new stationery and goods. Daily pages carry quotes from One Piece volumes 1 through 113.

The two announcements split by character and by date, with Hello Kitty in early September and One Piece in October. Both tie into the same planner formats: Original (A6), Cousin (A5), weeks, and, in the One Piece case, HON. The stories do not connect the two collaborations beyond that shared line.
