For aesthetics at least, but GMK CYL sounds the best. Boards are Tofu60 3.0 with Susuwatari (HMX Hydra), Neo Ergo with WoB (Huano Sakura), and Agar Mini with Skyriter (HMX Moonlights)

My first build in 2020 was with the og Tofu65 in black, with MT3 Susuwatari and lubed/filmed silent alpacas, filled with sorbothane. This board has been well loved as you can tell by the shine and is still my daily driver in the office. After building several boards for friends and myself and taking a break for a couple of years, my latest build is the Tofu60 3.0 HHKB in L9 with MTNU Susuwatari and HMX Hydras. No foams, PCB gasket mount, ultem plate. Interesting how preference shifts over the years.

Overall I like the build, though I think the MTNU profile does not do super well with clacky signatures—there is a harsh resonance to it compared to the same build with GMK Cyl. PCB gasket mount is a massive improvement over tray mount, though using a silent switch on the old build does help soften things up somewhat. The larger bezels, blockers (on the 60%), and weight are all so much better in the latest Tofu as well. Aesthetically, MTNU looks a lot softer and nicer to me than MT3 did, and the colors of this set have been improved too.

Had the agar mini for a month now and have taken it everywhere with me. Only change was, I swapped to HMX Moonlights and 6u instead of split (sorry split lovers, I prefer the finality of a large cap). Feat the haze from the wildfires
