Provided is an aqueous inkjet ink for which adequate image fastness is obtained even when the ink is printed on an ink-absorbent recorded medium, while reducing the granular feel of an ink coating that is produced when the ink is printed on a recorded medium having poor ink absorbency or on an ink-non-absorbent recorded medium. The present invention pertains to an aqueous ink composition used in an inkjet recording method, wherein the aqueous ink composition is characterized by containing an aqueous medium, a pigment, and a dye, the combination of the pigment and the dye being a prescribed combination. |
