This set is a tribute to the Japanese National Football Team, a team that had a brief, yet fantastic participation in the 2018 FIFA World Cup,
displaying a great level of football. The Japanese squad almost made it to quarter-finals, but sadly lost against Belgium in the very last
minute of the extra time.

Second favorite upcoming set to GMK Space Cadet.

This will be a must-buy for me!

Yet again, a weak justification to force weeb alphas on the rest of the community.

Disgusting.

But it's blue so I'm in for 2.

Add 2u Shift and make it with icon mod, maybe it will be better

WTS left kidney for jamon, chocolatier, samurai blue. Low mileage, has a solid 100k miles of life left.

Solid set, would you consider white base accent keys with either blue or dark blue or red legends (I'd try to render these if I knew how) or nah?

No, in fact I've been salty the whole World Cup because back when I did my Japan trip I didn't get a jersey and they have been out of stock for the last couple weeks, unlike the Spanish ones...

2.00U shifts often come paired with 1.00U ones and split spacebars. This might be negotiable, but I'd like to keep the base kit as small as I possibly can.

I don't have any plans to offer the base kit with icon mods, or an icon mods pack.

dallman5 · « **Reply #17 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 21:32:36 »

Would prefer standard Latin alphas (or at least as a separate kit with them), but either way I'm interested.

gutsack · « **Reply #20 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 22:08:07 »

I forget... GMK has a “Meta” mold, right? I much prefer meta to code, but that’s a nitpick. I like this.

donutcat · « **Reply #21 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 22:24:25 »

It's monotone, it has weeb alphas, and it has the usual good GMK support, so I guess I'll have to throw my money at this.

nu_types · « **Reply #22 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 22:29:39 »

Love it! That blue is perfect.

Vigrith · « **Reply #23 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 22:36:12 »

Nice to see more monotone, if it weren't for blue cadet I'd probably be in but given my immense interest in that particular topic as opposed to my very minimal one in this, I'll probably pass. Still, wonderfully designed.

chuckdee · « **Reply #24 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 22:55:37 »

Looks very nice, and still a bit sad I had to miss out on Serika. This will make up for it!

... but I am interested in a spacebar kit. The hope of hope is that it comes with 2x2U, but understandable if only one.

Yeoh · « **Reply #25 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 23:01:36 »

Nice colors, any chance the alternate esc and enter colors could match the japan flag novelty colorway?

Atredl · « **Reply #26 on:** Mon, 02 July 2018, 23:11:33 »

Really digging this set. I’m normally not that fond of Hiragana sub-legends but they really add a the right amount of white for this monotone set. I’m calling it now, this will be the set I use on my single white keyboard.

I'm interested in this and that blue Verne.

aya3154 · « **Reply #30 on:** Tue, 03 July 2018, 01:33:41 »

I’m sad Japan are out , this set would have some great memories attached to it

RSC · « **Reply #31 on:** Tue, 03 July 2018, 01:46:07 »

No way, you actually did it!!! OMG!

And it looks amazing!!! I want a discount for giving you the idea ...

PS: Change the modifiers legends to a super light baby blue and it will look perfect.

Kerasan · « **Reply #32 on:** Tue, 03 July 2018, 03:57:00 »

you are doing so many projects, I hope you will not neglect the jamon because I am very interested. Anyway also this great set.

Oooooooooooooooh THIS (though, sadly, I don’t think this is possible since my assumption is those sub-legends are double-shot with the other and I dunno... triple-shot? Probably not.)

I didn't like the white accents with red text, a darker blue looks much better.

Meta is usually used as a substitue for "menu". I prefer to use either "system" or "code".

A standalone alphas kit isn't going to happen.

I've only confirmed that Jamón will probaly drop in 2019 on Massdrop. For GMK Chocolatier, I've yet to prepare most of my stuff, create the project page, and get samples from GMK, but my intention would be to run the set through Novelkeys. So if we are strictly talking about my sets dropping: GMK Chocolatier, and later on GMK Jamón.

This set is in the IC stage, so it's far from getting scheduled. If there's a more than reasonable number of people that would want the set, I'll then bother vendors and propose the idea of having a GB, but we are very very far from that point.

I'll also consider that one too, but I don't plan to have more than the Japanese flag and probably the yattagarasu novelty Chokkan (stoic-lemon) has suggested.

Not going to happen. My idea for my near future sets it's to have one core kit, spacebars, and maybe one extra kit that provides extra layout coverage. The less we mess up with GMK setting up the machines, sorting, and shipping the better. Specially for small group buys.

Then throw out the gaijin alphas and make them Hiragana only in the base, ez game.

Sorry, I have to be super clear with this one, but hat's exactly what I won't do. There won't be extra alphas, or icon modifiers and I do not plan to do big changes to the base kit like the one you are suggesting.

Re-read what i wrote, this won't ADD anything.

edit: in the end i wouldn't care though, would just be even more theme related if there were no latin alphas at all :> So many latin+hiragana sets out/on their way and no hiragana only as far as i can see.
