Bow & TieCandy DreamWeeks Mega Hardcover Book / Weekly Horizontal / ENG or JPN edition / Jan start / Mon start
- 2027 New
- Japanese / English
- Mega
The Hobonichi Techo Weeks Mega contains around three times the number of grid-lined memo pages as the standard Weeks, providing even more writing space. There are 215 pages (219 in the English version) of grid paper, giving you the freedom to keep writing and pasting materials into it as you see fit.
The techo weighs 180 g (6.3 oz), only 46 g (1.6 oz) more than the standard Bow & Tie Weeks, and with a thickness of 15 mm (0.6 in), it’s only 5 mm (0.2 in) thicker. Other than these two details, the Mega has the same specifications as the standard Bow & Tie Weeks.
The Bow & Tie series techos are wrapped in the same textured, shiny fabric used in neckties. The material has a beautiful gloss and is soft to the touch.
The Candy Dream design features colorful candies scattered across a deep navy backdrop.
You’ll find all kinds of sweets: wrapped candy, classic lollipops, swirly pinwheel lollipops, fluffy cotton candy, and juicy soft candies. Look closely, and you’ll even spot some traditional Kintaro candy with an adorable face. Every last one of these colorful confections has been woven in fine detail using necktie fabric.
Vivid pinks, yellows, and emerald blues pop beautifully against the navy background, creating an eye-catching, adorable design that makes you feel like you’re in a dream, surrounded by mountains of your favorite candy.
The Hobonichi Techo Weeks Mega comes with a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.
The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.
The back of the book contains bonus pages. Both the Japanese and English editions feature standard favorites like My 100 and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map, among others.
If you’d like storage space or a way to change up the look of your Weeks book, you can customize your book by pairing it with a Weeks cover.

Please Read Before You Buy

- Press marks or shines may appear on the corners
You may notice press marks, slight whitening, or a glossy finish on the corners of the front and back covers. These are unavoidable results of the binding process.

- About the paper used (techo)
The Tomoe River paper designed for planners is known for its thinness and smooth writing surface. However, depending on the type and amount of ink or pen used—as well as environmental conditions—some ink may bleed through or take longer to dry. We recommend testing your pens on an inconspicuous area first, or using a pencil board or blotting paper for best results.
