When inks change color, based on the paper, it becomes more important to test it on our preferred paper to see how we like the ink. Thanks for showing it on multiple papers! More ink play... 😊

I have tried all five inks on 7 different papers and I think the inks show off their properties best on Maruman Mnemosyne and MD Cotton. I’ve also tried them on 52 and 68 gsm (old) TR, Life Bank paper, MD standard, and Graphilo. It’s interesting how on most of the popular papers these ink are kind of more blue and don’t really look like the color on the label.

Those first two are sheen monsters! Didn't get a very good sense of the blue black as all I could see was the reddish sheen. These inks are such shape shifters. Thx again for the demo!

Oh did I just buy the Suki Gokoro after watching this? Yes, yes I did.😅 Green is my absolute favorite color and I adore how unique this one looks!

Very pretty colors. ❤🎉

Oh, it's just so hard to choose what color I love the most!

So glad I got my order in with you so quickly after seeing this. Zaregokoro caught my eye right away but I added Sukigokoro on a whim and I’m excited for how much t reminds me of Taccia’s Sabimidori here!

I swatches these for the first time the other night on a hobonichi weeks and on some Life bank paper, and I was surprised how similar they looked at first blush, mostly being that blue/black with sheen type of look. I also painted with them and played around on some watercolor paper. I plan to do more watching and playing with them to figure out more about the “heart” of each one. This is a wonderfully thorough video that aligns with my initial experience of them thus far.

I’m mainly a TRP user so there’s unfortunately not enough difference in the colors for me to bother buying any beyond the Sukigokoro and maaaybe Hanagokoro. Thanks for the video!

I’m loving the Dategokoro on Tomoe River. Which version of the TR 52gsm did you use for your swatches?

I LOVE the color change but I'm worried about how much of it is sheen instead of oxidation - I'm a massive smudger 😅 do you notice much transference on fingertips or rubbed off on the backs of paper when it's stacked?

love them all! I do favor MD paper however, I wonder if the TR paper you use is close to the hobonichi paper? wondering how they will show up on my weeks 🤔😊

You're doing so well with the Japanese names . . . sounding authentic. I am putting in an order straightaway. Ka-Ching. Well, that was an ez spend!

I’m going to be honest I was pretty disappointed with these. I got all of them around a month ago and they’re all very boring IMO. I was hoping for some slightly darker chromoshading inks but these are just standard sheening inks that change color slightly as it dries. It’s a neat novelty for the 5 seconds it takes to dry but after that they just look like pretty standard sheening inks. They’re also much more difficult to clean out of pens than the 1st edition Yurameku inks. I’m really hoping a 3rd edition will come that’s more interesting like a darker chromoshader. That said, the inks are fun to try but don’t get them all like I did, that was a mistake, they all look very similar. Just get 1 and you’ll basically experience all of them. If you are really interested in trying more than one the purple and green ones are the most unique looking. I wouldn’t bother with the others though.They aren’t nearly as interesting looking as they look on the bottles or in the marketing. That’s just my opinion, but I was pretty disappointed. If you want a brown supersheener you’ll love these.

Why does the inks look red brown. I don’t see any blue at all each time you mentioned the word blue
