I've tried looking for the proper way of writing date ranges vertically in Japanese but haven't found any specific ones, but if you're going to express just the year then you could write:

2
0
1
7
年
1
2
月
3
0
日
|
2
0
1
8
年
1
月
5
日

  • どうもありがとうございます I am also curious about if the year range was printed in a Japanese magazine, would they use this same format with kanji numbers for vertical format. Would there be the same sort of separation for [ ~ ]?
