I'll be honest with you man, those accents just don't work one bit
Interesting, what's the inspiration?
Not bad. I think the accents are fine. I like that this is not a formulaic set, and isn't a safe color way.
i like the colors. not really sure what the point of the hiragana is here
Looks great, imo! Love the contrast.
EDIT 2: Oh hey it's JPoc, my Espresso dude.
Please consider removing sub-legends unless this is Dark Souls related.
Something is off about the Alpha weight in the renders. Is this a reference or are these totally new molds.

Form filled. I am the only one who likes the hiragana sublegends it seems lol.

I'm a fan of the sublegends :) adds more orange pop to the set visually
Hey everyone,
After a few days the results of the form are not as divided as I expected, 75% in favor of grey accents and 67% of hiragana subs.
With this info I will be keeping the hiragana, but I will still consider adding a kit without subs.
As for the light grey accents, I think the results justify keeping them, but I will still be trying out different options and might make a survey in the future if I find something that works.
Thanks for the feedback so far!
I'll be honest with you man, those accents just don't work one bitI like the set but have to agree. Maybe experiment with accents that have the 1575C as bg color.
Weeb sublegends or die trying. Looking forward to this!!!!!
I like pretty much everything about this set. From the colorway to the renders. I think the existing light novelties work well with it. GJ on getting the hiragana subs completely right. The kitting is also really good, almost perfect. Speaking of which...
Please consider including R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn for 65% and other layouts using right columns.
You can probably drop 2u Shift from the base kit. This key is useful only for a limited number of 60% boards. Sometimes it can also be used as a stand-in left space for Alice boards, but there's already an extra 2.25u Shift key for that — and the well-put-together spacebars kit covers that too, so I don't think there's a particular need for this key.
This is the shortest kitting comment I've ever read from you lmao

Thanks once again for giving advice. I removed R3 PgUp, R4 PgDn to keep the price down, but I will keep it in consideration as well as the 2u shift.
Game on with the new accent. I am in. Please get UK ISO into the base set.
bummed about the removal of those light accents, for me it made the set. Any chance at considering a small child kit with those accents?

Glad to hear that. Will consider it.
Is it just me or does this remind of GMK Stealth?
It will be great if you remove the hiragana
I really like the colors, would be interested in latin aplha variant.
Really dig the hiragana here, would look pretty boring without it.

Please add UK ISO into a kit or in the base. At the very least add a Norde/UK kit. I also love the forge mat, really nice.I don't think these child kits are ever designed anymore as they're unlikely to hit MOQ with GMK prices anyway? Please correct me if I'm wrong

The novelty enter, is that supposed to be a bonfire in the forest? I only guessed based on the theme, to me it doesn't really look like it at first or second glance, the trees are sick though.
Please consider some UK ISO coverage in the base kit.
Thanks everyone, I'll consider the kitting suggestions.

It's a fire in the middle of the burnt trees.

Thanks for the consideration! Also regarding my comment, I see that the sword bonfire r1 flames have a bit sharper detail and the flame tips on the 1.25u flame (not bonfire) novelties look great as well, is that something gmk can do accurately? I think imbuing those sharper tips to the other bonfires would really help it convey the imagery :) I'm in for this either way just my 2 cents
Hi, new to the forums, glad to be a part of the community!
Really interested in this keycap set. I see that the Group Buy will be in March 2022; could anyone give me some insight on when the shipping would start?
Also, I'm a bit curious as to what the previous accent colors looked like. Anyone have a link to the images?
Kits are looking great after the update. I was a fan of the original accent color, but the new one works well too.
Consider changing the R3 1.75u Control key to an icon legend (∧) for a cleaner, more consistent look.

Still have to get approval for the novelties but I expect it should be doable without major modifications.
That's a nice idea but the goal was to give the enter fire a similar style to the R1 campfire. Could try to make it more obvious that it's a fire tho.
Honestly that's fair. The more I stare at it, the more fire-like it looks and its got the bonus of being stylized which I can appreciate. Ignore what I said about the flames and sorry for stirring that pot!
June or July of 2023
Will be able to give more accurate dates in the future, but most recent GMK sets have a 1 year + estimate between GB end and start of shipping.
You can check old accents here: https://imgur.com/a/X7CWbxB
を over わ is supposed to be the same size. If you want ひらがな to be a base set, please fix this.

Also, thanks for implementing the Control icon change!
cool set. any chance of a latin base kit, or will that only be as an addon?
I do want to swap the latin alphas for a latin base kit, but I still need more IC responses to justify two base kits.
I like it but something about the contrast between the black legends and orange legends don’t work for me. Good luck regardless!
I like these colors a lot more than Skiidata. Consider 1.5U Supers though?
It bothers me so much how many people don't know what the inspiration behind this kit is. It's wonderful, and a definite must buy.
these metal artisans are awesome!!!!
i assume the Thok is brass right?
Hey everyone! I'm excited to show you the first two collabs.
Also, we are still waiting for quotes for the set, so hopefully we get them soon and can launch this month as planned.

It's a nice set but IMO the base set should have Latin alphas with Hiragana an optional addon.
Great color palette. I really like what you have going on, but I think there are a few things holding this set back a bit.
As it's presented, the orange's purpose seems to be as an accent color. So with the dark bases with the gray and black, the choice to put hiragana in the base kit and making those sublegends orange too, all-in-all ended up making my eyes ache because there's a bit too much of that bright orange being pumped into the alphas and sublegends. I would've suggested using the black do add a bit more contrast in the alphas so it's a bit easier to look at. And then with the kitting, you're making people pay more if they want less, if they want the latin alphas instead of the hiragana sublegends.
Just my thoughts, but I hope your GB does well!
Hey everyone, we finally have a GB date!
The set will run from April 8th to May 8th.
I'm thrilled to finally get this set to group buy. Thanks for all the support so far!
Good news for the Latin alphas folks.I appreciate you making this change. I’m now a definite buy-in for the Latin base kit.
I've decided to go for two base kits, since we reached enough interest and I've gotten so many requests about this since the start.
That being said, reaching MOQ for the Latin base will be riskier than for a Latin alphas child kit, so hopefully we see good support in the current GMK market.
I hope this solution satisfies everyone.

Hm. How will this affect the Hiragana Master Race?
