Hobonichi A6 Comparison || Original vs English Planner || Mandy Lynn Plans

[@atanasiamandru8188]

The Japanese version also has that “hidden line” to separate the timeline from the checklist side, same as the Cousin. The English version does not. I like the aesthetic of the English version more, but I like the functionality of the Japanese more...

[@MandyLynnPlans]

Oh yes!! Forgot to mention that! Thanks!

[@stephanienugent7800]

Love most things about the english planner just wish it had the timeline already laid out like the Japanese one does.

[@zhennyy5517]

Just want to say thank you for your hard work!! Your way of explaining is just greatttt 🔆

[@MandyLynnPlans]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@fufufuaru]

LMAO I never noticed that funny bit that the eng version has the kanji while the jp version used the latin alphabet on the cover

[@carriebartkowiak]

I had no idea there were so many differences. Thanks for showing us! I'd love to get my hands on an old or partially-used english A6 to play around with and see how I like it.

[@MandyLynnPlans]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ambyramenra]

in 2019, I used the a6 techo in english and the a5 cousin in Japanese. I enjoyed both.

[@michigal502]

Why oh why can they not just make it identical to the cousin? I need the weeks' section and do not want to buy a Hobonichi weeks separately. Are there any Hobonichi Techo A6 dups out there with that have the monthly, weekly and daily pages?

[@MandyLynnPlans]

I know...a lot of people feel the same way! 😞 There is an A6 weekly calendar supplement, a very thin booklet that has the hourly weekly layout. I’m not aware of any all in one A6 copycats. Sorry!!

Thank you for taking the time to make the comparison video. It was the information that I was looking for.☺️

[@TheJadefox640]

I like the larger grid in the english

[@MandyLynnPlans]

That is a nice feature!

[@katrinalee009]

I love the Japanese version but the English cover is better.

[@AnitaandLucas]

Always been using the A6 English version with the Monday start.

[@CultivatingCasie]

I used the Japanese version this year and will be switching to the English version in 2023 so I know what day of the week it is

[@MandyLynnPlans]

Hope it works well for you!

[@karikelley6899]

I love the English one and have had one since 2017. I've used it for so many things but now it is back to being my daily planner. I don't notice that Sunday is red when I'm using it... isn't that funny... it is like the holidays on the pages that I don't notice either.

[@ktsls82]

I hate the bigger grid in the English version but like everything else about it. The bigger grid killed it for me though.

[@bSidesTheRoadTaken]

Thank you for this comparison. It's very helpful.

[@MandyLynnPlans]

Glad it was helpful!

[@rebeccakilgore8203]

I like the Japanese version.

[@iviewutoob]

i really like the English version. I just would prefer a Sunday Start.

[@ramsen_]

Thanks for this!

[@destinedthunder]

Love!!!!

[@MandyLynnPlans]

Thanks!!

[@KatieCarpenter2014]

I wish they would come out with an English version of the cousin. :(

[@ccrgrl]

I like the English version, I just can't love the Japanese cover.

[@isimplyplan911]

Do you know if all calendars in the Japanese Sunday all have a Sunday start? I hope that makes sense :)

[@MandyLynnPlans]

I would assume so!
