Inspiration
In response to a large demand for a
Hana return, I decided to take advantage of JTK’s new
tripleshot capabilities to create an especially beautiful
successor to the original.
(tripleshot allows me the opportunity to include Hiragana
(ひらがな) sublegends, and what better than Japanese on a
Japanese themed set?)
This set is inspired by the Japanese tradition of
seasonal flower viewing, which, as you may have guessed, is
called Hanami (花見,
literally “flower viewing”).
While researching possible
new directions to take Hana, I stumbled upon the Wikipedia
article for this event and took inspiration.
The
typical practice involves observing the cherry (“sakura”,
桜) blossom and having outdoor parties underneath the trees.
It must be carefully planned as the blossom only lasts a
week or two.
As I read further, there was mention of a similar event
that is held at the same time, however being more ancient
in tradition –
“A more ancient form of hanami also exists in Japan,
which is enjoying the plum blossoms (梅 ume) instead,
which is narrowly referred to asumemi (梅見, plum-viewing).
This kind of hanami is popular among older people,
because they are calmer than the sakura parties, which
usually involve younger people and can sometimes be very
crowded and noisy.” (source: wikipedia)
Looking further into umemi, I stumbled upon this
image of the beautiful plum blossom, with a vibrant
gold-yellow center:
This inspired me to take that same gold-yellow and
somehow work it into the set.
So, I decided to separate
JTK Hanami into two synergistic colorways –
Hanami
(花見)
Faithful to the original set, the Hanami variant offers a
colorway inspired by the cherry blossom, complemented by a
calm purple.
The hiragana sublegends synergize with
the novelty and accent keys by using the same shade of
pink.
and
Umemi (梅見)
The Umemi variant removes the purple modifiers in favor
of a matching white, giving the set a clean and elegant
look.
Taking inspiration from the ume blossom, a
yellow-gold is chosen for the hiragana sublegends and
accent key color.
Both colorways can either be used alone or as I hope
to see combined!
I thought this would be an awesome way
to both revitalize the set and give more options to those
who aren’t huge fans of the original colorway.

recommend you read the full Wikipedia article about Hanami

Kits
Hanami (花見) Base Kit
Umemi (梅見) Base Kit
Hanami (花見) Novelties & Umemi (梅見)
Novelties
In addition to the 12 prefectures found in previous
Hana runs, I have included another 3 to allow extending them
through across the entire numpad.
Both kits have a
novelty with the Japanese character representing “hana”
(flower, 花). Hanami also has the character for “sakura”
(cherry blossom, 桜) while Umemi has the character for “ume”
(plum blossom, 梅)
The previous flower and bamboo
designs have been included, but this may be subject to
change as new novelties are designed! Keep an eye out.
Hanami
(花見) Senshi Kit &Umemi (梅見) Senshi Kit
The Senshi (戦士) kit offers a unique set of
novelties intended for videogames.
It is aimed
primarily towards MOBAs such as League of Legends or DOTA 2,
but can also apply to any game which utilizes any of these
keys.
The Japanese translations for each key can be
found in the kit image above.
A brief summary of the
thought behind the design /(primarily inspired by
League of Legends, sorry I don’t play DOTA 2
)*:
-
Keys 1-6 are primarily used for “items” - this is differentiated by using a circle outline around the Japanese character.
-
QWE are the 3 basic abilities of most MOBA characters, leading them to be outlined in squares.
-
A tends to be used for attack-move, and S for stop. Since these are also common/low-cooldown abilities, they are outlined in squares.
-
R, D and F are used for special abilities which tend to have high cool-downs. As such, they are outlined in hexagons, and are offered in the matching accent color.
-
and finally, a DFO icon, made especially for those in China (the game is incredibly popular there, and it uses keys 1-6!)
Matcha Kit (花見抹茶キット)
Due to popular demand I decided to add Matcha back as an option! Thanks to everyone who expressed your interest
