That limited Kobe Gogh dark green that cool-japan (after my 3bottle purchase) has 1 left looks wonderful. Vanness also has it, and a WONDERFUL selection of inks in general. Really great seller!

^^ +1 on the van Gogh Dark Green, great color and better behaved than the Dark Blue (didn't dry out as quickly but that could be pen-related), though that's also a great color. I'll have to test them again soon.

These 12 inks are SAILOR bottle ink original Kujukuri coastal limit 50 ml sold by Youstyle on Rakuten. Scheduled to be released at the end of May 2018. I am not sure if they are pigmented or not. I don't think so.

 

None of the Sailor inks under the old Jentle banner were pigment inks, as far as I'm aware.

 

I'm getting to the point of still being able to see the subtle differences between two similar Sailor inks, but not caring enough to want to acquire both any more. It's not a good feeling.

 

 

I have the three Kujukuri Coast inks and the three Shikiori inks shown above, and I'll say that between the images of the slips of notepaper with kanji handwritten in the Kujukuri Coast inks and the squiggles in the Shikiori inks, the differences in the ink colours are captured quite well and reflect what I saw in my own testing.

 

With the six 'pairs' below, I can see the differences between the Kujukuri Coast ink and its Shikiori 'counterpart', but now that I have a sense of just how minute they are in actual use, I don't think I can bring myself to go to the trouble of importing those Kujukuri Coast colours.

 

 

 

The only 'pair' shown above of which I don't have either colour is tamasakigyouten against irori. I think tamasakigyoten is an attractive colour, not dissimilar to Pilot 100th Anniversary Limited Edition bishamonten ink. I'm still umming and ahing about getting that one.

Im currently in Sendai, and a Maruzen store in the center has an exclusive gray ink with Sendai in the title. 仙臺萬年鉛筆HB Sendai Mannen Empitsu HB

I left without buying it, because it seemed expensive for basic looking gray. Can’t decide...

 

This blog says it looks exactly like pencil: http://happyinkdays.hatenablog.com/entry/0555

Surely that means the manufacturer has succeeded at its design intent, when "鉛筆HB" is literally "HB pencil"?

onnago iro days inks are back...

[white_lotus]

Website says they (Sailor) won't ship overseas or to forwarders in Japan. So unless you have a friend in Japan who will order for you...

 

At least they are offering them in 50ml and at the same price as their standard inks (¥2000).

I regret not getting the Heart Pink a few years ago. I shouldn’t miss it this time!

Technically old I just stated what I think their doppel older sibbling inks were

I got Sailor Manyo Yomogi, it doesn't seem to be like any of the Shikiori Ive seen. It seems like it is in between Yama Dori and Yuki Akari.

Any site to see the full lineup ?

Sailor's website still list up the Shikiori inks and pens, but can't find the Manyou even in the new product press release.
