MIDORI Ojisan B6 Ring Notebook and Acrylic Charm Set - Dot Grid MD Paper / MIDORI

A B6 ring notebook and a matching acrylic charm in one small box: the MIDORI Ojisan notebook was drawn for the 2027 zodiac year and uses letterpress printing on the cover, with a flip-book animation hidden in the page corners.

What is in the set

• One B6 ring notebook, 187 x 135 x 15 mm, 128 pages of white MD PAPER with a 5 mm dot grid
• One acrylic charm, 25 x 15 x 3 mm, showing the Ojisan character mid-stride
• Two silicone hoops, outer diameter 21 mm and 8 mm, for attaching the charm to the ring, a pen loop or a strap

Paper and binding

• Double ring binding so pages turn all the way round and lie flat
• Dot grid pages: dots instead of ruled lines, so you can write lines, boxes or drawings
• MD PAPER is Midori paper made for fountain pens, gel pens and pencil
• Letterpress printed cover paper with the 2027 sheep companion
• Made in Japan

Who it suits

Dot grid pages are the practical choice when a notebook has to be a to-do list on Monday and a sketchbook on Thursday. In B6 the book is light enough to carry every day and still wide enough for two columns of notes, and because it is ring bound, it opens flat on a desk or in one hand on a train. The charm is small enough to leave attached to the rings, so it does not interfere with writing.

Good to know

The notebook is not a dated planner: the dot grid is blank, so you number pages or add dates yourself. The charm is acrylic, so keep it away from solvents, and the silicone hoops are soft rubber and can stretch with heavy use. Cover printing is letterpress, which means slight texture and small ink variation from copy to copy.

Pairs well with

This set uses MD PAPER inside, the same paper as the MIDORI one year diary, so both take fountain pen ink without feathering. For dated planning page by page, the MIDORI Pocket Diary 2027 covers the calendar year. Have a look through our MIDORI collection, softcover notebooks and journals and kawaii stationery for more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What size is the notebook?

A: B6, 187 x 135 x 15 mm with 128 pages. That is smaller than A5 and bigger than A6, which makes it a pocketable everyday size.

Q: What is a dot grid good for?

A: A dot grid gives faint guide dots instead of full lines, so the same page works for lists, boxes, tables and drawings without the paper fighting the layout.

Q: Can I use a fountain pen on this paper?

A: MD PAPER is made for fountain pen and gel pen writing. Very wet nibs and markers may show on the reverse, so test one page first.

Q: What are the silicone hoops for?

A: They attach the acrylic charm to the notebook rings, a pen loop or a strap. Two outer diameters, 21 mm and 8 mm, are included so the charm fits different thicknesses.

Q: Does the notebook come dated?

A: No. The pages are blank dot grid, so you add dates and page numbers yourself. For a dated 2027 planner, use a diary instead.

Q: Is the charm removable?

A: Yes. It hangs on a silicone hoop, so you can move it to another notebook or a bag strap without tools.
