Sailor Manyo Akebi is a vivid reddish-purple or burgundy ink with attractive tonal variation and a distinctive green-gold sheen, especially on fountain-pen-friendly paper. Its wet, smooth flow and relatively quick drying make it suitable for everyday writing, while broader or wetter nibs reveal its shading and sheen best.
