maybe it's me but i prefer that first prototype weight design. such an elegant design with the tori.
Just in case anyone else was wondering about the choice to change the engraving from the original Reddit post, I figure I'll comment on this.
I did like the torii gate in the protos. I thought it was a nice, clean and symmetrical design for the interior. However, I decided to scrap it because torii gates are distinctly religious. It's not really my place to include that kind of imagery here as I have no connection to Shinto beliefs or practices. While the board shares its name with a deity, the inspiration here was not directly borrowed from religion, and I wanted to make a point of including that in the main post so there would be no speculation on where I got the name from. I think there was a fine line here between making a weeb-themed keyboard and actually co-opting religious symbols that I have no relation to, and it didn't really sit well with me to cross it like that. That's the reason for the redesign, hopefully that clears things up!
love the layout!
what's the estimate price for this?
Once we finish sorting out the proxies and figure out a total number of units, we'll have a better idea of the kind of price range we're looking at!
