I see that so far the top three highest vote getters (Maya Lapis, Kano Cho/Midnight, and Shioya Vintage Sepia) are all inks I picked (although I voted for some other ones as well, including Ooji Cherry)....

This was a huge amount of work -- thanks for doing this. And not. Some of the ones I hadn't seen reviews of yet are now on the short list of inks I want.... :headsmack:

I think #51 has a lot of votes mainly because we have to choose between #51 or #52 in order to submit the vote...

That could be a factor - but it's my favourite regardless :-)

The notion that it might be the "best line ... ever" does not seem unreasonable. However, I am not finding them very much available at this point, just a few colors. Hopefully that is a temporary thing.

Picking this up - Japanese Rakuten says only one bottle per color; global Rakuten lists only a couple of colors. I'm just hoping it's a temporary restriction over the gifting season.

 

If anyone knows more, I'd appreciate any info.

I've only tried Minatogawa Lime and I'm in love with it... but GOSH. This thread is just making me ink-envious. I want to try all of these right now!

 

Most curious about the Apricot and Taisanji Yellow.

 

This thread is epic though. Wow. THANK YOU.

You can always ask Atsu (cool-Japan on eBay) to get you the colour you prefer.

 

Price increase is also coming up after New Year. May affect the availability.

BTW, Vis, did you mean AmberleaJAMES or AmberleaDAVIS?

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Thank you so much for all this work! This is such a great reference!

 

The colors are all beautiful but I only have Lime Green and Island Blue, both of which I love. Midnight Blue is calling out to me, as well as Sumiyoshi Brown.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
