Yumi Kitagishi is an illustrator gaining attention in Japan and beyond, and her work has been turned into a Weeks again this year. This 2026 version showcases the full charm of her drawings once more.


The world created by Kitagishi in acrylic gouache draws you in, quietly making you imagine the stories or settings behind each piece for a special kind of wonder. Both nostalgic and exciting, her illustrations perfectly capture the charm of a picture book. The theme for this Weeks is a “White Cat’s Daily Life.”


The day she placed a candle on a cake and celebrated. The day she dressed herself up with a ribbon. The day she enjoyed leisurely hanging out with her stuffed teddy. All of the wonderful moments the white cat experienced in her everyday life are recorded in a vivid memory board.


Both the front cover and the spine showcase the year 2026, and the number on the spine is handwritten by Kitagishi herself. While the number on the front is pressed with silver foil, the one on the spine is in a pink foil, with both shining beautifully as they catch the light.


Once again included this year is an exclusive brand card with an original design. If you use it as a bookmark, opening your techo will become even more fun.


The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. It's characterized by its ability to hold ink well and provide a smooth writing experience.


The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 71 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (75 pages in the English edition). The back of the book contains bonus pages, including Memories 2026 and 12 Switches to Help You Focus.


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.
