Sailor's Full Ink Lines Including Shop Exclusives Compiled In A Post?

[vanishsophie]

Another two adorable colors I found in Rakuten called "吉田川ブルー" and "吉田川恋物語". They were all sold out but still wondered if it was possible to buy those two somewhere in Japan.

what pink inks taught me is that they are good mixing inks like yellows... but like any other low dye load inks they are harder to mix on than mix with

Pink inks have taught me to not use them.

 

I wish I have time to travel around in Japan and get full check-in luggage with all inks if it is happening.

Just get a new job and all the vacation time could not even be enough for me to go every single place to find the ink I like.

Atsu is really nice and friendly guy and I could not find any cheaper price since he already including all shipping costs, so the prices are decent unless people can find friends or other people who live in Japan and be willing to find these for us.

I asked some cosmetics sellers and they would not be willing to find the ink for me even though I want to pay them extra fee.

Welp. Most won't agree. I can help if you like.

Of course! why should I reject your help.

I will PM you and see if you can find the ink I like.

Unfortunately, Bungu no Kura Rihei has been sold out for a while. I would like some inks from that line too. I'll send them a query whenever I have the time to converse more in Japanese.

I like the whole series and I actually sent an inquiry online about two months ago, but the shop owner said he had no plan to restock them in the long term so... : (

 

 

 

I don't think I've heard of Miyainki Kakeochi Green!

 

筆楽宴 書落（かけおち）グリーン Fude kano utage Kakeochi Green (Kakeochi calligraphy green?) ? hmmm I'm not sure how it's read but Hitsurakuen? Kakeochi Green

from Bungu no Rihei most likely

Yup that is the pronunciation! It is a dark green that looks similar to Montblanc winter forest. Here is a photo from Rihei's website. http://www.sonomanma.co.jp/file/thumbs/201404/96f9f56269e43513b16e2681a0e81413/80_60.jpg

You're welcome.

Unfortunately, I don't use pink inks, so that may never happen.

But here is a review which may be useful: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/261433-athena-koubai/

Thank you! It is a cute color, similar to iroshizuku kosumosu in some way.

I checked Rakuten and both of them would be back in stock on January 18th next year. : ) So there is still a back-up plan to buy them online, and I think you can start your pre-order now. Here are the websites: http://item.rakuten.co.jp/sadafeel/yoshidar/ and http://item.rakuten.co.jp/sadafeel/yoshidab/. I have just sent them a query.

It's difficult to be certain from the linked review (lighting is a bit off), but it seems like it could be a dead ringer for Nagasawa Kobe #12 Okamoto Pink. Okamoto is a wonderful ink at half the cost.

hmmm so Seiran does sheen... but its hard to capture

[RayJ]

^Love that color.

Is it indigo or blue? Whatever it is, I have 3 bottles of it.

[Algester]

lovely color indeed its blue indigo I got one from tinjapan so I still have to thank him for it :3 1 whole bottle no less which is kinda scary since I can not get it once that bottle is empty (no one is open to letting me purchase locally)

You did say that you have a low limit credit card. I can fix you up with a bottle and you can pay in installments.

I'll think it over...

If you want, I can do a comparison. Would you be interested?

[amberleadavis]

YES PLEASE! Saskia, I'd love a letter with the inks if you would mail it to me.

OH! That would be WONDERFUL, Saskia.

[saskia_madding]

Sure. I'll do one this weekend, take some pics when it's sunny, and mail it to Amber after that.

it will be back to store again, so just wait and see.

I also heard the Joyful-2 will be back to store as well, but the bottle has been changed to round shape.

[Algester]

DUN DUN DUN! I guess hmmm did I update... since the ink line is expansive does that mean there's an increase in price?

[RayJ]

Yuck. No torture please, I'm paying for the ink bottles, not taking them for free.

[Algester]

Joyful honda's rakuten has reflected the changes they no longer show the bottle but purple heart is now back still at 2K yen

as for the bottle well... I'll just forgive Sailor for it... but if the Joyful honda inks are now made by the factory at least their availability is now certain to be more common at least no more 5-7 month wait list (I'm just purely speculating at this point as Joyful Honda doesnt have a blog or message board for updates so what ever will the outcome be I'll just leave it to that including a price increase)
