Do you want to see more Korean and Japanese stationery comparisons? If so, give us a like on the video and comment below! We apologize for the confusion over the double post!

Jetpens, you should do a video of the Jetpens team showing what's in their pencil cases!! I would watch that no matter how long the video is!!

[victoriavidaud]

Maybe do a show off of interesting fountain pen inks, like the ones that color shift or have unique effects? (The ukiyoe inks come to mind, I think by sailor? I know one, akamidori, is a red green separating one)

[Ailana]

I wanna say I really like this style of videos you all make. They're really entertaining and funny at times. I especially love Stephanie's segments because her reaction to stationary is literally me irl..

I just love how this newer style of showing off supplies feels like I'm sitting down with a friend and comparing materials, while the older videos felt more like an infomercial. I mean both are good, but on the older videos I used to just skip to certain segments. But here I feel more engaged to watch all the way through 😁 I hope you make more like these

[yuna]

So, according to this video my judgement will be:
Rollerball Pens: Pilot Precise V5
Fountain Pens: Monami Olika
Highlighters: Zebra Mildliner

[susanwright]

Pilot V5, Platinum Preppy, Zebra Mildliner. " If it ain't broke, don't fix it." These pens are classic and highly valued among people like myself.

I dont think japanese stationery is defeatable 😭♥️ it's supreme bruh. The ink flow, the price, the aesthetic, the range of shades and the pigment is unmatchable. It's always been japanese stationery for me. The pilot 0.5 mm nib is so comfortable to write with and I've never experienced any kinda leakage or smudges with it.

[InkScreen]

Watching this half way and I'm really amazed at the price differences. In Malaysia the Olika is sold for far less than the Preppy - about USD 2.13 instead of Preppy's USD4 (after conversion!). And I've had a lot more inconsistent experiences with the many Olikas (they were my gateway drug into FP along with the Petit) than Preppy!

[theuniquebean]

I think you’re the winner Josh. You’re so positive and funny! I’m going to give the Olika EF pens a try since I’m a newbie with fountain pens and love color.

[estephanyaperez]

Please make a part 2! I loved this comparison video!

[cferracini]

To me, the winner is always the finest tip with the best writing experience so despite being a hardcore Preppy 02 fan, I'm willing to try the Olika. About the highlighters? The winner is Crayola Supertips: more colors, cheaper and smudges way less than the Mildliners. But if I have to choose between the 2 I would go for the Monami because I have their gel highlighters and really like them.

[bestthingeverbyjenn]

Thanks for the video! I hadn't heard of Monami before and I wasn't super impressed with my Mildliner, so I'll have to check that out!

[waltski]

It was so enticing that it went private!
Love both Japanese and Korean stationery!

Once u enter the workforce, 99% of what is worth highlighting is on copy paper. As pointed out in the JetPens pastel highlighter video the Uni-propus are the best for copy paper. They come in 5 pretty colors, which is enough for me. The key things for printed paper are not smearing copy print ink and not being overly inky causing bleed through. Even if I wasn't highlighting copy paper, highlighters like the Zebra mildliner really bother me because of how much bleed through they have for any type of paper.

In terms of Korean versus Japanese stationery, not many people remember this, but in the 90s Korean cute, paper stationery was often noticeably nicer than cute, Japanese stationery. The Korean stationery had die-cut edges and embossed, raised texture on a lot of their styles. I really wish I still had some to show people how good it was.

I’m so glad someone’s finally giving me a bit of info on these mildliners! I picked some up out of curiosity because I wanted a grey liner for my artwork and I’ve started collecting them because they work decently well with my Copic markers! If you use a frick ton of water they can be used as a water tint too!

For rollerball: If I need a purple pen (I'm a "purple" girl), then it's the Precise. Otherwise, I would go with the Morning Glory (love the name). I'm a sucker for an extra-extra-fine tip!
For fountain pens: I'm going with the Monami Olika. Again, the extra-fine tip got to me - & it's smooth too - 💜!! Also, I appreciate the 3 ink cartridges.
Highlighter: Mildliners are the champs! Lots of colors and the 3 tips - they're a must-have for any stationery enthusiast.

[AionNoBara]

Beautiful presentation, Josh! I'm very tempted to try some fountain pens now. My English teacher in high school graded with V5s so I had those for a while to outline drawings. I have had my 15 count Mildliners since 2019...and they're still going! O_O

[LaLa_ArtGal]

"...but sometimes we just like to look at shiny things!" 😁😍🥰

[tiffanyhoang]

I love everything about this video. The pens, Josh, and the editing is chef's kiss 😚
Josh's "foine" made me laugh

[nasiris]

Mild liners are my go to in sooo many of my spreads! I do my best to find them on sale. Can’t get enough!!!
