Gachapon: Japonica School Notebook Keychain

A tiny version of Japan’s classic school notebook.

Showa Note’s Japonica Gakushucho notebooks have been a fixture in Japanese elementary schools for decades, instantly recognizable by their green borders and close-up nature photography. This gachapon shrinks the classic notebook down into a miniature keychain, complete with a clear protective cover and tiny pages inside.

And these aren’t just blank miniature books. You can actually write in them, making them an extremely small notebook for notes, lists, or anything else you can fit onto the page.

There are 5 designs to collect, each featuring different flower photography. Each order includes one randomly selected gachapon, just like getting one from the machine. Which one you get is a surprise!

Ships in its original gachapon capsule.
