Kokuyo Soft Ring Notebook: Cute Kitten and Bread Designs

The wait is over! Kokuyo has finally released its 10th Anniversary Soft Ring Notebook collection, and it is every bit as adorable as we hoped. This special edition is inspired by two things almost everyone loves: fluffy kittens and freshly baked bread. With these designs, Kokuyo proves once again that they know how to make stationery both practical and irresistibly cute.
Since the launch of the Kokuyo Soft Ring Notebook in 2015, it has sold over 40 million copies worldwide. Fans love it for one big reason: comfort. Unlike traditional metal ring notebooks, Kokuyo’s soft rings are gentle on your hand and take up less space in your bag. Now, for their 10th birthday, Kokuyo has wrapped that comfort in the coziest, most delicious-looking designs yet.
The Story Behind the Soft Kitten’s Bakery
This limited edition collection is built around the theme “The Soft Kitten’s Bakery”. It features two main styles: Puni Puni Kitten and Soft Bakery.
The Kokuyo Soft Ring Notebook has always been about solving common notebook problems. Metal rings can dig into your hand when you write, and they often feel bulky in your bag. Kokuyo’s resin-made soft rings fix both of these issues. They are flexible, smooth to touch, and easy to carry. This makes them perfect for students, journal lovers, and anyone who writes often.
For the 10th anniversary, Kokuyo decided to make the rings even more fun. The Puni Puni Kitten version turns them into cute paw pads, while the Soft Bakery version colors them like fluffy bread dough.

Puni Puni Kitten – Paw Pad Perfection 🐾
If you’re a cat lover, the Puni Puni Kitten notebooks are for you. They come in a compact A6 size and feature five charming designs:
-
Calico
-
Gray Tabby & White
-
Ginger Tabby
-
White Cat
-
Brown Tabby
Each cover has soft, kitten-like textures and the ring colors match the shades of paw pads. Inside, you’ll find an easy-to-use 5mm grid across 80 sheets, making it great for notes, sketches, or journaling. Even the back cover has playful kitten illustrations, so it’s cute no matter which way you hold it.

Soft Bakery – Warm and Fluffy 🍞
The Soft Bakery series is a treat for anyone who loves bakery-inspired stationery. These notebooks are A5 size and have a glossy varnish finish, giving them the look of fresh bread straight from the oven.
You can choose from five mouth-watering designs:
-
French Toast
-
Melon Bread
-
White Bread
-
Fruit Sandwich
-
Waffle
Just like the kitten series, the inside pages have a 5mm grid and themed illustrations. The ring colors match each bread type, making them as satisfying to look at as they are to use.
