I would appreciate you staying away from my wallet.

In all honestly, this is beautiful! Can’t wait for the GB. I think the colours and novelties are super cute and well done.

Not sure how changing the dark green differentiates it more from Sushi. If anything, focusing more on the pink brings it closer imo. The color play between the cool white and the dark green was the highlight for me, so I hope you bring it back.

It's better. But I really still think you should go with red, orange/yellow for the accents; black (and white) for the text.

I love the new yellow but not a fan of the new pink. The older, darker shade was much nicer.

I don't mind the change in green, but I really wish green accent keys weren't replaced by yellow. My interest level in this set was highly dependent on the green accent keys.

Do you have side by sides of the new/old colors? Or are they already there and I'm missing it?

Don't take the ePBT Sushi comparisons too harshly. ePBT Sushi is a great set but it has complete ass compat. I'm a huge fan of this set because if fills a similar role as my ePBT Sushi desires but has the compat that I need. Will definitely be in for this.

The green colorway was a lot better. Now this base kit just looks extremely generic as far as the world of Japanese/English kits goes. There are so many white caps with black/charcoal and red/pink already. Hope it's brought back.
Edit: oh and of course it's decided by a very close Instagram poll to an already done colorway. Rip.

Feel free to drop the R4 1u \|ム key from the kit, it's not necessary. In its place, I recommend adding a R1 1u `~ー key (for ISO and JIS layouts).

Edit: R1 End, PgDn in the base kit can also be removed as unnecessary keys since they are now included in the numpad kit.

I really REALLY like this set except for the Modifiers not being offered in the Seaweed colorway. I'd instabuy this set if it had like chopsticks for the shift keys in that Seaweed.

Kinda wish the dark deskmat didn’t have the “pink” in it. Any possibility on switching out that color? I think the light color way works well with it but the “dark” isn’t that dark with that pink IMO.

Interesting colour pallet

That's what we've been saying since the beginning. :)

The colors look good but they aren't "small ramen shop" colors. Which are predominantly red, orange, and yellow with black and white texts. At this point I'm starting to suspect (shades of) yellow, green and pink are the creator's favorite colors. GMK Retrocast was also green, yellow and pink albeit in a different pantone.

Currently working on the deskmats, there will be 6 different options so I'm sure you'll find one you like :)

actually, I just realized, are those chopsticks sticking up and out of the bowl and take away box? that's a decently large cultural faux pas, as bowls are presented that way at funerals to offer to the dead.

I fixed it, I apologize for the insensitivity. :thumb:

I have never seen any of those special characters in any set... I would also love to have some characters from my language but I got used to missing them and memorized them already.
I simply don't think that would be cost-effective.

Hi!

I love the design - the two tone feel is something I loved from KON MOMO and I'm glad to see more people using the possibilities of dye sub  :D

I was glad to see ISO UK support added, however the "localisation" kit is... confusing to say the least. ISO UK is missing two keys, there are a couple of portuguese and german keys, and then there's a few keys I can't even identify which national layout they're from.



Miguel Farah/depletedvespene has put out some great resources for creating international kits: Kits National Layouts Interactive comparisons between layouts. I highly recommend looking into them and using them to adjust the localisation kit to support the languages you choose.

I would love to buy this set, but with the current state of the Localisation kit, it would personally be a pass.

Thank you for making a start, though  :)

(I also support the notion of a UK vendor - ProtoTypist is who I'd personally recommend)
