You can order it directly by amazon global shipping, just register a account at amazon jp with your address. I don't recommend buying JIS layout unless you're Japanese or have a TMK converter through. Also corsair keycaps wears off quickly so if you really want a JIS layout maybe get a topre? The K95 you've posted is more expensive then topre 108 JIS :eek:. Corsair keyboard are alright but extremely overpriced.

To add to the pevious post, unless you type Japanese regularly, don't buy one of these. The 半角/全角、無変換、変換、カタカナ keys will all be useless and actually just get in the way.
That said, you can remap them in linux, and maybe in winows if you try hard enough, but really, even a lot of Japanese people don't use JIS keyboards.

Hasu's usb2usb can solve most of the issue with TMK but the layout is still very uncomfortable(I have a jis topre and I do type japanese)

Those keys can be remapped and in turn very useful. JIS is my second choice after ErgoDox.

Main issue to me is everything feel shifted to the left by 1u but I think having it on a full-sized board probably made it worse :-X.

Which, again, can be a good thing. (https://forum.colemak.com/topic/2187-jis-master-race/)

I could consider buying if they added a tkl with tmk/qmk firmware.
If you're going to disassemble the keyboard, could you measure the PCB thickness and take a couple of pictures of the back of the front and back of the pcb? I had one in hand, but forgot to measure it...
They started shipping to more countries, after couple years of selling those keyboards. I give them few more years and they eventually release a software or firmware updates that allow proper programming, then I spend my money, as I really love idea behind those keyboards. Sturdy aluminium shells, PCB mounted switches, nice dampening, awesome keycaps, bluetooth (simple switching between MacBook and PC). I just don't get it why they haven't put FN key where every other maker, on Manu key. Those that do it are WASD. Ducky, Filco, IKBC, Vortex, even Unicomp in their Spacesaver M, but of course Cherry, GMK and Chinese gaming keyboards must mess it up...

Might try that, thanks.
