I've been studying Japanese for almost a decade but I watched this video because I'm always open to new studying tips! I went and found a Hello Kitty orenz 0.2 and I'm super excited to try it out!
-
I bought like 2 of the things listed in the video before even knowing 😂
-
Why are both Tombow and Uni's eraser called (e-) Knock? Does knock mean something? (Like "mechanical" pencil)
Also been looking at both of them online and was wondering about the refill comparison, like I know Tombow's MONO Zero has a more precise tip, but the Knock(s) seem like the eraser goes the full length (where has the Zero only has like half, and the rest is a plastic rod) -
Hi Kimberly! do you happen to offer internships?
-
I'm from Hong Kong writing traditional Chinese but still most of my classmates use a .5 mechanical pencil
-
u posted this on my bday thanks very much, and also I bought a lot of pencils from your webcite
-
Thank you for making this video! It helped a lot!! ^-^ This gives me an excuse to ask my mom to buy me a lot of new pens! Hehehe
-
I started studying Japanese in September and people told me that 漢字 are SUPER difficult, but I don't find that they are. There's a lot of them, yes, but if you get the gist of it, it's pretty easy.
-
Delightful video! Thanks for sharing your tips and experience.
-
I have placed a order and you guys got some of the best neatest stuff ever, Japan rocks. I am going to do another order and try some different items, like of of each to get a idea of some of your very well made things. Thanks
-
I'm starting my second year of japanese next month and this video was so helpful. I knew I had to get finer pencils last year but I didn't think of looking for recommendations online. I'm ordering a 0.3 mechanical online ASAP, can't wait to try it next month!
-
What a great video, very informative and thorough. Im drooling over those pens, haha. Do you guys ship internationally? For example countries like New Zealand. Because these pens look incredible, better than our stationary here. Thanks in advance, and again, great job on the video Kimberly.
-
Very interesting video. I am actually taking Japanese 1 next spring in college & this video has given me some great tips. Thanks.
-
well I loved the Japanese lesson I've always had it in the back of my mind, like I really want to study Chinese or Japanese. it looks really intricate and interesting
-
This is fantastic, thanks. I have always had trouble with Chinese/Kanji, where writing my given name looked like a 4 year old did it...I really want to learn more Chinese (I speak cantonese which trips me up as a lot of the spoken language is not written at all!)
-
loved your video! I am not writing or studying japanese but I am a pen addict. since I found you I have started to just learn about pens and inks. I like to doodle in my hobo and using all these different pens just makes me happy to learn something new and why it looks good or didn 't work as well. keep these coming.
-
This was great info...and I liked the little lesson....would love something that would help me with where to start for leaning Japanese....
-
i know this isn't pencil/stationery related but doesn't have to be. Could you please do a video on study tips for learning japanese, textbook, workbooks, anything you used to help you learn japanese. I want to start learning japanese because i want to study in japan but i want to have knowledge with the language, as well. THANK YOU
-
in all of your videos when you refer to your business you say "we". do you have a staff working for you or is it just you and your husband?
-
Thank you SO much for this video! I got my first 0.3 mechanical pencil when I was in Japan and I stupidly forgot to buy lead...I'll definitely order other models and refills as well as those erasers. I always cringe when I make a mistake in one stroke or one half of a kanji and have to rewrite either the whole character or even part of the sentence.
Also, what are your go-to's for your Hobonichi? I'm excited to buy new supplies for the new year :)
