Featuring 117 PBT keys, each made through a dye-sublimation process, the set is durable, long-lasting, and resistant to the oils that build up over time from the skin Read More

If anyone wants to see an image of the entire set, you can see it here on the second image: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Enjoypbt-keyboard-mechanical-keyboard-keyboarded-hot-117-keycaps-Japanese-keycaps-Dye-Subbed-Keycap-Set/32777283992.html
Looks like the extra spacebars are 7U and 6U, for those interested.
Minor rant, but literally every keycap drop has people asking about the size of certain keys included. To whoever it concerns at Massdrop, it would be enormously helpful to provide the keycap sizes, or include at least one photo with entire set so people can see the actual sizes. When people have to google the product to find other sites and listings to get those details, you aren't providing adequate information on these drops.

H2WhoahEveryone should take a closer look as there are some subtle but important differences. Sun kit has:
1) teal instead of magenta arrows for the tab, shift, backspace and enter mods;
2) 3 extra r1 1u keys;
3) 1 grey r4 1u key instead of a white numpad "00";
4) LED indicator on the stepped caps lock key.
The sushi kit seems more common, but imo sun kit offers better compatibility.
Edit: not sure why isn't massdrop showing the entire kits in the first place. Is this drop different from the usual kits and the only extra keys are those shown in images 5 and 9? Those do make up exactly 117 keys..

Bigger brain: show a complete picture of the keycap sets
Laser brain: let the comment section figure it out
Galaxy brain: force your customers to cycle between images and individually count out 117 keycaps

he's just pointing out that it's not the same thing as what is being sold here.
Massdrop's not a great value for this one by any means, but if you want this specific keyset, it's $99 on kbd. no need to get defensive

You can get this same set on aliexpress for about ten bucks more (though it used to be cheaper), without having to wait until august for it to ship, and without the joke that is massdrop's idea of "customer support" (Still waiting for a word on the Ducky Pocket drop from April, what the hell massdrop)

seidenfischIt's a group buy. The estimated ship date was never until June anyway, and things can go wrong in group buys. Your expectations are unrealistic and unwarranted.

It is shameful to deceive your customers. It is live and available for 85$ on Amazon instead of the 140$ listed as the original price on this post. https://www.amazon.com/Enjoypbt-Japanese-Dye-Subbed-mechanical-keyboard/dp/B0794XQVGR?SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B0794XQVGR

ThornkinIt still says the original price is 140$ though, right? I never had a problem with the price listed, the problem is trying to deceive buyers into thinking the cost of the board is usually 140$, when it is available for <80$ and I tried to be very specific about that.

Just a heads up, the set I ordered was shipped all the way from China in just a plastic bag with no box or anything sturdy to protect the keys. Sure enough when I recieved them one of the spacebars had been smashed into pieces and the shards of plastic ended up scratching a lot of the other keycaps.

I tried reaching out to kbdfans but they weren't the suppliers for this drop. I guess I'll just have to settle for a refund after waiting these four months.

I've never heard of a Japanese person using kana input. Japanese is input using roman letters and then converted to Japanese with the "henkan" key. Back in the day senior citizens who had never used a computer and couldn't touch type might have used these. My Happy Hacking keyboard Pro JP (for Japanese) doesn't have kana on the keycaps, although oddly Apple still includes kana, probably because the stuff is "designed in California."

TennonOne clarification: although Japanese users of PC and Macintoshes 99 percent use romaji input (100 percent for anyone under 50 years old), for mobile phones and smartphones it's the oppoosite: almost everyone uses kana input.
Kana input on a phone is nice because you can use a 12-key (push-button telephone style) input pad, which gives you nice, big buttons to use. This gives you 10 keys (key images on the touch screen) for the rows of the kana syllabary (a, ka, sa, ta, etc.), and a couple of buttons for specialized stuff like dakuon and han-dakuon conversion.
Each key holds five possible characters, the character on the key, and four more in the four "flicking" directions, up, down, left, and right. So you either tap the key or flick starting from the key in one of the four directions. You get a whole kana row on one key, e.g., ka ki ku ke ko. The ka key produces a ka when tapped, and a ki when flicked left. A chi is the ta key flicked left. This is really fast, and can be done one handed while holding onto a subway strap with the other hand, which is how most urban Japanese spend a couple of hours of their lives every weekday.

I can just buy these cheaper and get it quicker from 1upkeyboards, originative, ali, or kbdfans. Let me know when there's a drop just for single sushi keycaps, though. I'd buy those.

CowboyChickenUnless I'm missing it: Originative is Modern Beige, 1up only has Korean or English, and I think ali is $107+ (not positive; not a fan of that site). kbd is $99 shipped.

idk_heyMass drop support? is unlikely they will know whats going on since its a third party seller/shipper. That said on the date it was supposed to ship they gave me the option to request a refund but i'de rather have my product than do so!
Would of been better if they either explained that or acted on your behalf since they have a more direct line to these people.
