Thanks for a wonderfully thorough review. It is comforting to know that Tomoe River paper is not going to cease being produced (as was reported elsewhere). If anything, your review indicates that for users who are writing rather than drawing/sketching on the paper, the Successor Tomoe River paper is an improvement.

Thank you! That is a great way to put it--if you just write "normally", you will probably like this paper. It's the people who like all kinds of ink that are a little "out there" that may pick up on some of the subtle differences.

I think a normal review of this new paper would have been a lot of writing but I feel like your tests were much more applicable. TR paper was so unique that these tests were far more revealing to me than a bunch of written lines. Plus the descriptions of the paper and writing feel were invaluable. Great video!! I'm sitting on a quite a stock pile of pre 2021 paper. In 2019 I bought a whole bunch b/c I loved the unique TR paper so much and I felt so ridiculous but now me and my 200 sheets are having a grand old time waiting to see what comes of TR paper in the future

Sterling stuff, Alesa- and what a terrific service you provide here, and always. 'Successor'-with its apparent drag-assy chalkiness concerns me (and reminds me of one of Cosmo Light Air's drawbacks) but, in other aspects, it does look promising. I note that you wisely withhold which of the two papers you personally prefer…for now, I’ll just say I remain glad to have a significant stash of the Good Old Stuff!

hahaha! I figure I will go with the future. I have a stash of the old stuff too, but this is good paper. I don't love CAL but I like it and use it. But with normal wettish inks with normal nibs, I prefer the new stuff as it's more crinkly and has slightly less how thru. Thanks so much!

Right now we don't know when the Successor will pop up in finalized products. The best we can guess is that Sanzen probably would not have bought the rights to TR unless they had some lucrative follow on. We still haven't seen, here in Japan, anything specifically labeled as Sanzen's version of TR.

Another epic review. Love the inside joke between Jacob and you ;) As I told Jacob on his blog, the tactile aspect is very important to me. I'd already gathered from his review that the texture would be a little different. I haven't tried the "new" TR paper in the 52 gsm variant, but I have an Endless Recorder with new 68 gsm TR and although it's still very good paper, I really dislike how it feels, both to the touch and to write on. I miss the silky feel of the old TR. Hopefully this paper will be better than that and a bit closer to the old paper when it comes to the writing sensation.
@InkyRocks
@InkyRocks 3 жыл бұрын
I really don't know if it's closer to the "old" than the "new" was. There were some bad batches of the "new". It feels nice but there is the drag with dry and chromoshading inks. I think there will be a group of people that won't enjoy it, like with Cosmo Air Light.

You're sooo awesome Alesa thank you for this very informative feature! This gives us the peace of mind that the successor isn't that different from the old TRP. Hugs and warmest regards from Manila - Love, Gema

Thanks so much Gema!💝I think there may be some people that won't like it but some that didn't like TR before may come around with the less show thru. I enjoyed it.

Thank you for the detailed review. I was laughing when you explained how you got the paper, I guess the code was takoyaki! I've procured enough Tomoe-river paper that it will last me for about 3-5 years. Listening to the sound and seeing the inks, it looks very promising.

Like different nibs and different inks, each paper kind of serves it's purposes. I prefer the Successor with normal nibs and normal ink. It's crinkly and has less show thru with normal writing. Where it's different is with dry and chromoshaders. We'll see how this falls out. Thanks so much!

Yes, both are 52. I believe Yamamoto sells loose sheets now. And SAKAE still hasn’t made a journal of it yet either. Possibly at the end of the year. I haven’t heard of new 68 yet as I believe there is still old stock out there.

I was sad to see Tomoe River disappear. I was lucky and got one of the last packs of A4 loose-leaf. I will make some books with it. Also found some little handmade notebooks of the 68gsm from Spain. Did a lot of research to find that. Not sure I will be trying the Successor. I will have to watch your videos on paper products before I decide.
@InkyRocks
@InkyRocks 2 жыл бұрын
I agree. The fountain pen niche is pretty small and it was a business decision. I believe there are packs of the Successor out now for sale. While not being exactly like the old TR paper, it's the closest to it compared to any other paper I have tried.

I’m not sure what you mean. Does Daiso in the US sell only one kind of paper? Usually they sell what is the cheapest and it changes. I am going to do a “cheap paper” vid during the summer-so suggestions are welcome!

Your telling of how Jacob got his samples and then yourself was very funny. I'm looking forward to trying out the new Sanzen TR Successor paper. I wonder how long it will be before we get to buy it in the UK?
@InkyRocks
@InkyRocks 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks so much Joanna! The company Sanzen is mailing out to the wholesalers at the end of the month. Then I guess companies need to work thru their old inventory and then make whatever they are going to make of the paper (like journals or paper pads) and then it will go out to the public. We were thinking (me, Jacob and the "source") that maybe early spring of 2022?
