  • We're back with Japanese stationery that's so specific, it's almost too specialized.

  • Click the card and watch Part 1 to see all these specific writing instruments.

  • Everything is linked in the description below and at JetPens.com, the place for pen and stationery lovers.

  • Let's begin! Connecting StickersNever lose printouts again with convenient connecting stickers!

  • The Kokuyo Choi Plus Sheet Connecting Sticker lets you attach loose sheets to notebook pages.

  • It ensures straight alignment and adhesive-free fingers using a two-step process.

  • The added sheets fold away neatly, too.

  • When you're done, dump the adhesive backings into the special trash pocket in the packaging.

  • Kokuyo also makes stickers to reinforce and protect hole-punched paper.

  • The One Patch Hole Reinforcer is a stamp that helps align and attach stickers to punched holes.

  • Keeping them in pristine condition or patching them up from existing tears. Paper Matching Correction TapesMost correction tapes only come in one color, blinding white.

  • But some Japanese brands make tapes that match specific paper colors.

  • Kokuyo Campus Correction Tapes were made with Kokuyo Campus paper in mind, but they work with other off-white papers.

  • Midori offers MD and Mopka Correction Tapes to match the color and texture of their MD paper and most cream color paper.

  • Plus also makes Wiper Petite Correction Tapes for tiny and medium-sized mistakes alike, although it's a slightly darker cream.

  • Check out our blog linked in the card above to see which tapes best match your paper and notebooks. Convenient Page FindersThe Sun-Star Index Punch makes it easy to flip to the right page of your journal or planner.

  • The punch has two modes, a side punch and a corner punch.

  • Instead of adding page flags or dividers that jut out, use the side punch to add index notches for different months or topics.

  • Then use the corner punch to mark pages you finished and leave an indicator for the next unused page.

  • If you like the idea of the corner notch but don't want to fuss with the punch, try the Midori Pato Quick Open Memo Pad.

  • The pages are lightly glued together along the left side, creating a tidy block of unused pages.

  • When you're finished using the sheet at the top, flip it back to separate it from the clean pages.

  • The next time you need a new page, just go straight to the top of the stack.

  • No need to waste time shuffling through loose pages.

  • As an added bonus, the glued stack feels more stable to write on, since the pages won't wiggle around beneath the pen tip. Laptop-Friendly NotebooksUsing a laptop is convenient, but when you have limited desk space, it's hard to add a notebook to your workflow.

  • To solve this annoyance, Japanese companies like Clyde, Rolban, and Kokuyo have created notebooks that fit perfectly in front of laptops.

  • The Clyde Original Landscape Notebook comes in A5, just oriented horizontally instead of vertically.

  • It's filled with cream or white 2mm grid paper that's great for fountain pen users.

  • Delphonic's Rolban Horizontal Spiral Notebooks are half as tall as an A5 notebook and feature wood-free cream graph paper, twin-ring binding, and clear pockets for holding loose sheets.

  • The Kokuyo Campus Half-Size Notebook is half B5 size.

  • Since it's lightweight, you can carry multiple notebooks for different subjects.

  • It's available in 6mm and 7mm dotted rule sheet styles. Reflecting JournalsThe Midori 12-Month Diary offers a unique layout that lets you record thoughts and events for each day of the year.

  • By comparing the same day every month, you'll notice and reflect on subtle changes in your feelings and habits over time.

  • It's like an analog monthly version of Instagram's On This Day feature.

  • The journals use Midori's fountain pen-friendly MD paper.

  • If you like this format and you're ready to graduate to something long-term, try Midori's multi-year diaries.

  • Pick from 3, 5, and even 10-year options. Did any of these products catch your eye?
