MOTHERStarmanA6 Size (fits Planner and Original)
This cover design is based on Shigesato Itoi's 1994 Super Nintendo game, MOTHER 2 (EarthBound in North America). It’s made from a silver faux leather that sparkles in the light, giving it a futuristic look. One of the iconic characters from the series, a Starman, is blocking your path on the front.
Floating on the back you’ll find a Li’l UFO and a Cute Li’l UFO. The ribbon on the Cute Li’l UFO provides the only color on the cover.
Open the cover and you’ll see a variety of metal characters hiding all over the place. The ticket pocket contains the MOTHER 2 logo and the tottering image of the Clumsy Robot. Below that pocket hides a Marauder Octobot.
On the left side of the interior, the Phase Distorter has been placed inside a curved “Smile pocket.” The Phase Distorter is a space- and time-traveling device created through the combined scientific genius of Dr. Andonuts, Apple Kid, and Mr. Saturn.
If you open the card pocket, you’ll find the Atomic Power Robot lurking inside. This is an especially memorable enemy who refills the HP of fellow enemies and explodes to deal massive last-minute damage after it’s defeated.
The two bookmarks attached to the cover have silver charms to complete its flashy look.
As a free bonus, this cover includes a protractor, based on the item carried around from the start by one of MOTHER 2’s protagonists, Jeff. The numbers are written in a pixelated font, and flying above Jeff in the middle of the protractor is none other than Bubble Monkey!
Keep this tucked in the pages of your Hobonichi Techo and you’ll be able to fairly easily figure out the angles of various things. And yes, it’s an item you can use multiple times.

Please Read Before You Buy
In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.
- Actual specifications may vary from listing
Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.
- Color and print may vary slightly
This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
- Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining
Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
- Not for use with Cover on Cover
This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Cover on Cover may damage the products.
- Pen holders are rigid at first
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
- Pen holder fits pens up to 13.5 mm wide
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
- Avoid storing in hot and humid places
Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
