2026 Hobonichi English Weeks / Kyohei Sakaguchi: En Route to Kumamoto Port at Dawn《January Start | English》

The Weeks is a slim, long wallet-sized planner that is light and portable. It has a weekly horizontal layout with the weekly pages on the left and grid memo pages on the right. Each weekly spread also contains the characteristic “Daily Quote” on the bottom of the page. The book holds plenty of graph-ruled memo pages for note-taking at the end of the book. There are a variety of cover designs available to choose from.

This pastel painting, titled En Route to Kumamoto Port at Dawn, was created on March 22, 2024. According to Sakaguchi, it depicts “the crisp, cool morning sky before heading out to fish.” Clouds stretch across the dawn sky—those touched by light are painted in white and pale orange, while those in shadow are a soft gray.

Sakaguchi explains that the color of the clouds reflects not only the real scenery he observed, but also his own inner state—making the colors feel even more vivid.
