About the Sailor Manyo (50ml)

The Sailor Manyo fountain pen ink comes from an abbreviation of the Japanese word "Manyosyu" indicating people of ranks. Manyosyu is often regarded in Japan as a true expression of the Japanese spirit. The themes of the poems relate to celebrations, love, elegies, family matters, nature and so on with flowers being especially relevant. Sailor has therefore chosen colors based on various flowers for the Manyo fountain pen inks.

4 additional ink colors are scheduled for release in June 2022. Each of the 4 new colors will be Dual Shading inks that create incredible depth in writing, calligraphy, and art. Availability of the new dual-shading inks is anticipated for late June/early July 2022.

Sailor Manyo inks are dye-based and come in a large 50ml inkwell style glass bottle. These inks are only available to the Sailor international market and not available in Japan.

Lovely colors; the dual shaders are great for art work. The Shirakashi is beautiful, but has a somewhat unpleasant iodor.

Sailor Manyo Fuji is the kind of ink that surprises you with its quiet beauty. At first glance, it’s a soft periwinkle-purple—a color that immediately reminded me of blooming wisteria or a misty twilight sky—but as you write with it, more complexity starts to show. There’s a gentle balance of blue and purple in the base tone, and under the right conditions (especially on Tomoe River or other high-sheen paper), I noticed a touch of greenish-gold sheen and even some delicate shading that gives it real character. It’s not flashy, but it’s far from flat. It feels peaceful, elegant, and contemplative—like its namesake, Mt. Fuji. I tested it in my Monteverde MP1 OmniFlex, and it performed flawlessly. The flow is slightly on the wet side, which works well with a flex nib, giving soft gradients and clean lines without any feathering or bleed-through. It’s a very well-behaved ink, true to Sailor’s reputation. Dry time is reasonable—10 to 12 seconds on good paper, a little faster on standard notebook stock. I didn’t notice any issues with smudging or ghosting. And despite the softness of the color, it’s still readable enough for journaling, letter writing, or headers in planners. The bottle is the classic Sailor Manyo 50ml glass—simple, elegant, and easy to fill from. The Manyo line overall is beautifully curated, and Fuji is a standout if you appreciate poetic, understated inks. Final thoughts: Fuji is one of those inks that calms you down the moment it hits the page. If you're drawn to soft purples, want something different from typical blue or violet inks, or just enjoy inks with a gentle soul, this one is absolutely worth trying.

Sailor Manyo Ayame is a lovely greenish-grey ink that has tons of shading on TR paper. A new favorite!

Sailor manyo kakitsubata is the perfect color. A nice, saturated blue. Works perfectly in every pen I’ve used.

I like the color but it lacks the kind of saturation I prefer. Thus, it's on the dry side.

I might be biased because I greatly enjoy grey and green and purple, and this dual-shader mixes all those together in a fun way. In general, Sailor Manyo inks may be one of the best ink values out there, and Ayame works great for me - it’s also dark enough to read easily in thinner nibs, which is important to me, as well (my handwriting tends toward the smaller side).

I have the Hinoki, Ayame and Fuji. The colors are beautiful, flow is good, drying time quick. I love these dual shading inks!

I have refilled the pen twice with this Sailor ink and I like the Manyo Kuzu color. I think the standard black ink from Mont Blanc will sit idle for a while.

These are outstanding inks! As someone who has over 100 different inks, I put these inks very close to the top. The colors are beautiful, they shade nicely, some have nice sheen, all seem lubricates and are moderately wet to wet. Haha, Nekoyanagi and Nadeshiko are a little drier than the others, but then they are multishaders with exquisite shading. I have found all of them to have little to no water resistance, but they are easy to clean. I hope they come up with some additional colors in the near future.
