Hakubunkan 2026 Daily Diary B6 – Hardcover Vertical Format No.3 (January Start)

The Hakubunkan 2026 Daily Diary (B6, Hardcover, No.3) is a beautifully crafted Japanese daily planner designed especially for those who write vertically from top to bottom, following the traditional Japanese writing style. Ideal for native Japanese writers, calligraphy enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates classic notebook design rooted in Meiji-era publishing heritage.
