Paper Trails & Pixel Dreams: Anime Scrapbooking & Journaling Guide
Welcome to 2026! In a world where everything is digital, screenshots get buried in your camera roll, and game data can disappear with a server shutdown. But ink on paper? That lasts.
Anime journaling—or creating a "Pain Journal" (Itabag but for books)—is about capturing the feeling of your fandom. It's where you celebrate that lucky 50/50 win, mourn a lost pity, or simply archive the beautiful art of your favorite characters.
"Screens fade, but paper stays. Document your journey, one sticker at a time."
You don't need to be a professional artist to start. You just need a notebook, some passion, and the right tools. Welcome to the Bahomu Stationery Studio.
Chapter 1: The Magic of Materials
Your materials are your palette. The key is to mix textures and layers. Let's start with the foundation.
The Notebook: Sunday Theme Set
Every great journal needs a great base. The Honkai: Star Rail Sunday Theme Notebook Set is perfect for this. The high-quality paper handles ink well without bleeding, and the thematic cover sets the tone for your "Penacony" adventures.
Marking Your Place: Pom-Pom Bookmarks
Never lose your page again. The Pom-Pom Gallery Soft Magnetic Bookmark Set adds a pop of character to your pages. Unlike paperclips, these magnetic bookmarks won't crinkle your precious journal pages.
Chapter 2: Composition & Decoration
A blank page can be scary. Here is how to conquer it with cute accessories.
Charm as Decor: Bangboo Plush Pendants
Who says pendants are only for bags? The Zenless Zone Zero Bangboo Plush Pendants can be attached to the spiral binding of your notebook or used as a bulky, 3D charm on your pencil case. It adds a tactile, fuzzy element to your stationery setup.
Chapter 3: Theme Ideas for Your Journal
Stuck on what to write? Try these spreads:
1. The Gacha Log: Draw a timeline of your pulls. Use the Sunday notebook to record every 50/50 win (or loss).
2. Character Profiles: Dedicate a page to your "Oshi". Use the magnetic bookmarks to mark their special days.
3. Event Reports: Went to a convention? Paste your wristband and freebie cards into your journal. It becomes a physical time capsule.
Chapter 4: Tools & Storage
A messy desk leads to a messy mind. You need a home for your arsenal.
The Honkai: Star Rail Little Ica Plush Badge Storage Bag is a secret weapon for journalists. While designed for badges, its soft interior and zipper make it an excellent, quirky pencil case for your favorite pens, glue tape, and scissors.
