The Twin Planner 2026 Edition: A Celebration of Functionality and Design

As we step into 2026, Gakken Stayful, a subsidiary of Nippon Publishing Sales Co., is excited to announce the release of the new A5 Twin Planner. This special edition not only marks the 20th anniversary of the product but also introduces enhanced functionalities that are sure to impress both new users and loyal fans alike.

A Planner for Every Need

The Twin Planner's biggest selling point is its dual-layer layout, offering an easy way to visualize and manage both monthly and weekly plans. The top section allows you to see a whole month at a glance, while the bottom section is a vertical layout that breaks down your daily schedule by the hour. This design caters to various planning needs—whether you want to separate work from personal commitments, manage family activities alongside your own schedule, or just keep track of your favorite events. The spacious, interactive layout keeps your mind organized and gives you clarity.

Innovative New Features

Responding to user feedback, the 2026 edition incorporates four brand-new features aimed at enriching the planning experience:

• - Monthly Log: A dedicated space to reflect on past months and assess achievements.
• - Wish List: Create and track a list of your goals and aspirations.
• - Habit Tracker: Help cultivate productive habits over time.
• - Yearly Reflection Page: Sum up your yearly experiences and growth.

In addition to these features, the planner introduces a total of 13 new pages, enabling you to manage your schedules effectively while documenting daily reflections—all in one convenient book.

A Design that Captivates

Available in A5 size, the planner is slightly slimmer than traditional A5 formats, fitting snugly into a handbag for easy portability. User-friendliness is enhanced by the inclusion of three bookmarks, three pockets for business cards or other items, and a pen holder, confirming that functionality is a key design principle.

Additionally, a large transparent pocket on the outer cover allows for personal customization. So whether you want to add your favorite trading cards, stickers, or cherished photographs, the planner can reflect your unique personality. This customization element has led to enthusiastic responses from users who enjoy personalizing their Twin Planners.

The Twin Planner also features a double-ring binding mechanism, making page turning easier and the overall planning experience more enjoyable.

Color Choices to Brighten Your Days

The 2026 edition is available in three vibrant colors: Oak Brown, Charcoal Gray, and Lavender, all designed to uplift your mood as you organize your schedule.
