1 Kangetsu (Machine-made)
Bleeding: ★★☆☆☆
Kangetsu, the No. 1 machine-made Hanshi.
The ink bleed, which cannot be replicated by pulp Gansen paper, is gentle, allowing for a satisfying writing experience.
The slightly off-white paper color is calming to the eyes.

2 Tenku (Machine-made)
Bleeding: ★★★☆☆
Special machine-made Gansen paper using a large bamboo sieve.
Sufficient bleeding, dry brush strokes, and ink penetration are felt, allowing for high-level creative work.

3 Kakuju (Hand-made)
Bleeding: ★★★☆☆
A white, supple hand-made Gansen paper with a smooth texture.
Maximizing the characteristics of the raw materials, we have achieved good water absorption and moderate bleeding.
It allows for clean brush strokes and is attractive for its ease of use.

4 Kurinari (Hand-made)
Bleeding: ★★★★★
Hand-made Gansen paper from Anhui Province, China.
A delicate paper quality that produces beautiful bleeding and dry brush strokes.
Recommended for large character calligraphy using thick ink, and for poetry and prose that utilizes bleeding.

5 Hakuba No. 3 (Hand-made)
Bleeding: ★★★★☆
A luxurious hand-made Gansen paper with a Taiwanese paper quality.
It produces beautiful bleeding and dry brush strokes, with fine line expression, and can be expected to enhance the effect of your work.
Enjoy a different writing feel from Anhui Gansen paper.
