I was expecting something about space... I feel disappointed. Just kidding, I want it.

I love the White version the most!
Would really love to see a thinner line version applied on the other color variants because I think the overall contrast is too strong on the non-White variant IMO.

I feel like the lines need to be brigther to give it more constrast

i also think the lines could be brighter, also is it only me that sees the universe color scheme to be more green than deep blue or black? shouldn't a universe colorway be themed after the most prominent thing in the universe, space? or is it just a keycap set and I'm stupid

Is there a reason it's stretched vertically? Asanoha is usually made of equilateral triangles and hexagons but at least in the top-down renders they look much taller than they are wide.

If i'm completely honest there's no specific reason, I just like how it looks this way
