This ink had an average flow. The color that is very appealing —it is a clear blue that reminds me of the blue skies and the ocean.

Overall: I was originally on the fence about this ink, having been spoiled by Sailor Sei Boku. I’m glad that I reviewed this sample, for it is now one of my favorite blues! I definitely recommend trying out this ink if you can.
