It's the ONLY one in my hand bag. I divide the daily TO DOs into two parts. The top part is my to-do and the bottom all the events scheduled. The right times part I use for food logging. All my meals on the times I actually eat.... the weather up top and mood at the bottom. LOVE

I've actually never heard of the Jibun Techo before, but now I think I have a new product on my no-buy list 🤣🤣

I’ve used the Jibun Techo for the last 3 years. It’s by far my favorite and I use the First Kit every year. It’s the planner world’s most underrated planner. My fave. ❤️

Couldn't agree more, this planner deserves way more attention! Found planner peace with it after years of planner shopping 😅 now it's my fourth year in the weekly A5 jibun techo, won't change it for sure! I started with the First Kit and now i just buy the new planner every year..I loved the TN weekly insert, regular size, but it was too narrow for my needs, while this is just perfect, a bit larger than the TN and same height.

I actually think kokuyo planers are so underrated! I personally don't have a jibun techo, but I got a kokuyo PAL planner, and it's amazing!

Thank you! I love this planner! I’ve been using it for a few years now. The paper is superb! I love the monthlies with the trackers at the bottom too.

Really great. The orange one is perfect to study japanese

I also bought this planner on a whim at the end of last year after wanting to love the Hobonichi Techo (in two sizes!), and other miscellaneous planners. I am also using the Hobo Weeks (it comes everywhere with me), but this Jibun Techo is the only planner that has ever “stuck” for longer than a couple of months. I draw my days, I journal, I future plan, I track habits on the monthly - it may be *whisper* planner peace????

I love love the Jibun Techo as well, thank you for highlighting it :)

This planner colour cover is so beautiful 🧡

I use the Jibun Techo weekly planner for work. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

I used DAYs for 2022. B6 slim. love that size. This year I'm using an A5 slim weekly version. You are so right!! The paper is fabulous. Jibun Techo has so many features that are included. Less layouts to make myself.

[PlatypusPlans]

The Jibun Techo is (IMHO) far superior to the Hobonichi! I have the standard diary and was amazed by how comprehensive it is. I haven't tried the Days yet, but might next year. I've wandered in and out of it but always come back to it. So happy you are happy with it!

[AuntieAlexandra]

I’ve been using the Jibun Techo B6 Slim in both the days and the weekly diary for a month. I’m so glad I decided to try them! I love them. I didn’t realize how much I needed the structure to help me plan.

[KingsofLeon]

I don't know why more ppl don't talk about this planner either. I had one last year. Loved it, couldn't be happier. However, I've made this dumb rule with myself that I *should* try a different planner each year... I bought something similar to the Jibun Techo DAYS, same layout and everything... I lasted a month lol. I couldn't stand it. I despised using it, I didn't even want to look at it xD. It just wasn't the same. Gave up, went to Barnes and Noble and gladly, since it was already a month into the new year, they had the DAYS in stock for half off! Been using it ever since. I think I might have finally found planner peace. I do still want to try other planners but I think the DAYS is going to be a permanent necessity now.

[AuntieAlexandra]

In an attempt to narrow my EDC to just a single book, I carry only my Jibun Days, using a one-page Personal Rings weekly insert from Cloth and Paper as a bookmark. It has a brief overview of my scheduled things for the week (work days, birthdays, appointments, etc) as well as the weekly to do list of anything I haven’t put on a particular day yet. I still use my Jibun Techo weekly diary for planning and tracking, but it stays at home.

[corocoronene]

currently using one this year, it's my first ever paper planner 😄 I was surprised at the lack of content about this too! So far I use it for journaling and reflection, with a daily doodle on the month pages. What I've learned is that i'm a person that really needs weekly pages for actual planning purposes, so its a shame the DAYS doesn't have these. I've got the A6 hobo weekly supplemental booklet and kind of inserted it in the cover? It works, but I think i'll probably switch to something with actual weekly pages for next year. I do love the trackers on the month page tho...

[greenjewel]

I just started using the same one but weeks starter. I use the idea book but not the life. It works very well. Im glad you like it too.

Love this planner and adore the b6 slim size, between that and the A6 they are my go to planners ❤❤❤

[lbrowning]

Thanks for the practical review with so many questions answered! I’ve been eyeing Jibun for a while. There is a cute irony to the rhetorical question of why isn’t this planner used by more people………….all of the hashtags are for Hobonichis 😂❤
