One thing I really don't like about US planners are the stupid sayings and quotes that they are filled with. Like "Chase Your Dreams" and "Girl Boss" etc. That's so tired and "basic b*tch." Those so-called inspirational sayings really make me groan and roll my eyes.

Monday start and PAPER QUALITY. Paper quality cannot be overrated. Plus, very few spiral bindings, which catch on bags and get in the way of writing.

@pandabugdiaries2384 2 года назад

Cannot agree with you more on paper quality! Monday start is great too, though the school planners that my school makes are Monday start anyway so I don't notice it all that much. Personally I actually prefer spiral bindings though, pages can be more easily torn but they lay flat without fuss and without creasing the binding which can look unsightly, plus I can use more of the page because the edges of the page isn't being inhibited by the other page or creating a valley into the unknown.

@DAISY-nq2jk 2 года назад

@EpiphanyDraws 2 года назад

i will say, as someone who lives in japan currently, paper quality really depends on how much you're willing to spend. sure, compared to American products in the same price range, they're probably better, but not all Japanese planners will be. basically, im saying if you want to cheap out, buying japanese wont necessarily get you much better quality

@IchigoSpaz 2 года назад

I lived in Japan for several years as well and I know for a fact that not all Japanese planners are designed with simple color palettes and minimal images, either! I always liked buying the small character ones from my local stationary store, along with tons of decorative stickers. There was one publisher that did a lot of Western fairy-tale themed planners that I absolutely loved. It had full-color illustrations on every page. I really miss those planners!

@madeleine61509 2 года назад

Similar price points will still get you a better planner from Japan. My €12 planner from Muji (Japanese store) ticks all the same boxes mentioned in the video, as well as some they didn't mention: Monday start, great paper quality, minimal bleed-through, minimalist design, lie-flat, very thin and portable while still giving me enough space to decorate and write out descriptions for every single day of the year, etc. A planner for that price produced in the US or even here in France would be utter garbage... I would know as that's what I used to use for a few years. I used to get planners from western supermarkets for roughly the same price point every single year. One year, I finally decided to save up and get the Hobonichi Techo. I absolutely loved it and bought it the following year, but the price was way too steep to keep it up in the long term (especially with customs into France), so I tried out the Muji planner and it's basically like a budget Hobonichi Weeks with the price point of a supermarket student planner.

@SrirachaSandvvitch 2 года назад

I’ve been bullet journaling for years in Stalogy 365 notebooks, but I decided to go with a new system for 2022 because I just got overwhelmed with having to set up spreads every month. So, I settled with the Hobonichi Cousin Avec. I can’t wait to use it-everything is created for me, I just have to write in it. I have ADHD and sometimes prep work can frustrate me, like having to draw out monthly spreads. Plus I get discouraged if it looks messy or unorganized. Your channel is the reason I’ve gone with the Cousin Avec!

@JessicaComptonHR 2 года назад

I love my Hobonichi for these reasons. I started using the cousin last year and I got an Avec and a Weeks for next year. I picked the Avec because my cousin got so chunky this year. I hope you love yours.

@Stormbrise 2 года назад

I am also neurodiverse with ADHD and ASD. perfectionism killed me in using a bujo. I switched 2 years ago to a JT, and added a Hobonichi weeks this last year to track my impulse spending, oops I mean my budget!

@@JessicaComptonHR I got the Avec because I wanted room to slide in a 1/2 year Stalogy for journaling/brain dumps. I was doing planning and journaling all in one notebook and even with an index, it was just a mess- so now I’m happy to be able to separate the 2. It kind of freaked me out lol the thought of having 2 planners at once, but I’m now considering picking up the Hobonichi Weeks. That way I can carry the smaller book in my purse and not have to haul around my a5. Happy planning!

@@Stormbrise I definitely get where you’re coming from: the bujo community is a wonderful place but it also had a way of making me feel like I wasn’t doing enough. Or being creative enough.

The answer is yes. I have purchased and tried dozens of planners over the decades. The paper quality and Monday start of Japanese planners made me a fan about 8 years ago. I just ordered my 5th Jibun Techo Biz. No planner is perfect, but it comes the closest for my needs.

I love the minimalistic aesthetic of Japanese planners but the thing I cannot deal with is the space to write is too small!!! My handwriting is not that small. This is why I go with minimalist planners like the ones offered by Moleskin.

@FairyKit 2 года назад

Right?? Same here! I got the jibun techo A6 size and it wasn't roomy for me. I used to write in it for the first few months, but I kind of got tired of writing too small, I had no room to really record what I ate and stuff. I also wish it had English translation because it's not optimal to me to go on the website just to find translation for each page. I also didn't like that every month on each day had the mood tracker and then the weekly set up also had the mood tracker so I was recording my mood twice and having to do that just felt redundant to me. But I do love the set up and the design of it. Wish they had an English translation one like they do for the hobonichi. This year I just got a simple monthly undated planner. It has lines for each day of the month for planning and I prefer my monthly boxes to have the lines in it. I got the Apica monthly I think. It was cheaper so yeah xD

Watching this is making me want to buy a Japanese planner when I already bought a planner for this year 😭

I use the Michael Hyatt Full Focus planner. It has Monday starts too. I use a thin strip of washi tape to make the distinction and have it stand out that I’m on Saturday and Sunday, not Friday and Saturday 😉

I've had a lot of the Hobonichi range and I really rate them, currently i'm using a day free which is perfect for my needs. Plus they do the cutest covers (not cheap mind) I have it in the cutest Animal Crossing cover right now!

I spotted one more difference in the Midori MD Diary. The schedule is in a 24-hour format. I personally like that better, but I bet that would drive a lot of people nuts, so I think it's worth mentioning.

I'm glad i finally found a proper planner which starts with monday and even has good paper i want them but it'll be a waste of money as i cant follow through...

@gizralnork 2 года назад

The paper quality!!! Obviously, even the cheap one you buy from 100yen shop is great enough!!

I would get a daily planner for next year. Not sure which one just yet.

I prefer the "spread" style of My Franklin Planner. 2 - pages Per day. Left side tasks & appointments; right side notes. It is perfect for my use-case. That being said, the paper quality is that of standard copy paper. I supplement it with the Kokuyo Campus Diary (free), & the Hobonichi 5-Year Techo.

@kjinso4997 2 года назад

honestly thinking about getting one. you are right. American planners might have prompts but are very messy and the paper quality makes you not even want to use it. i’ll still think about it but i honestly can’t wait it get one

What is the US planner used for comparison?

@fufufuaru 2 года назад

I resisted Monday start for so long but have come to like it eventually bec sometimes my weekends have overarching sched and it's super rare to have something on sunday extend to monday. It was easier to adjust as someone working vs when I was a student, I don't know why though.

@stillnotstill 2 года назад

Oh interesting! I was going through the comments like "I could NOT do a Monday start" but your comment makes so much sense!

How can Sunday be the first day of the week? Does your work week start on Sunday? Confused European here

Actually the week starts by Sunday. But the society made it Monday.

I was curious about this. I picked up a planner while traveling abroad in China and couldn’t peg why I liked it better and how that affected choosing planners since… and this video outlined it all. 😂 the Sunday start does make more sense for me. The quality of paper enhances the aesthetic of paper planning that I enjoy and the simplicity of the pages keeps me focused on what’s important. I keep a sketchbook separately for doodles and drawing. I don’t feel the need for them in my calendar. Glad there’s something for everyone !
