Cornix Split Keyboards Sold Out” appears in X’s Today’s News

I think it’s been a news item in this keyboard area since the “Matsuko’s Unknown World” episode featuring Mr. Biakko and Mr. Pekaso…?

TBS “Matsuko no Shiranai Sekai” (The World That Matsuko Doesn’t Know), July 21, 2020, “The World of Keyboards

The news seems to have been newsworthy, with a concentration of discouraging posts about how the Cornix LP (Jezail Funder), which went on sale at the Yousha Kobo online store on October 18, 2025 at 5:00 p.m., sold out in an instant.

Four color lineups are available: silver, black, purple, and red.

Although the number of units sold has not been announced, it appears that there was a rush of orders and many people were unable to purchase the product.

Cornix is priced at 26,900 yen (tax included). Exhibit: Jezail Funder Japan

Cornix LP Sold Out, SNS Laments

Take a look at the lament post.

Background of Cornix LP’s popularity

Cornix LP is the product of a GB that took place May 23-June 5, 2025.

The Extra Stock was sold out in a few minutes on the official website on October 11.

It is the author’s experience that extra stock of these GB products has never been so popular.

The reason for its popularity, according to our analysis, was that the existence of Cornix LP was a product that broke down potential barriers to entry for users interested in keyboards.

In fact, a similar event once occurred.

That’s when the latest version of the Cornix LP-inspired “Corne” keyboard was released.

---

The latest version of Corne has been updated to V4, and a microcontroller that controls the keyboard has been built into the board since V4.

In other words, they can now be assembled without the need for soldering.

Although many potential users are interested in such “special keyboards,” many of them find it difficult to solder.

In that sense, the “Corne V4” was the first product to break down the barriers to entry for special-array keyboards before Cornix.

At the beginning of 2024, when the product was first launched, Yusha Kobo was out of stock for a long time in its online store.

However, it is true that there was still a “barrier” to entry for general users who wanted a “finished product” because even if they purchased the product, they had to assemble it themselves and prepare keycaps and key switches separately.

---

In that sense, Cornix LP is a “finished product” created by the manufacturer.

In addition to being “ready-to-use as soon as you buy it,” the keyboard has an aluminum housing, supports wireless connectivity, is certified for technical compliance, and is “just within the price range for a high-end keyboard,” a combination of factors that has led to its current popularity.

Cornix LPに関する注意

今後、おそらくは転売するケースも出てくる可能性も十分考えられるため、そちらに関しても注意する必要があるでしょう。

また、Cornix LPに関しては、グローバル展開をしている関係上、海外の通販サイトから購入できるのも事実です。

しかし、完全無線接続で利用する商品となっている性質上、本体に「技適番号が記載されたシールもしくは刻印」が必要となります。

当サイトとしては、海外からの購入はおすすめできません。

国内販売を待つ方が良いでしょう。

推し活に例えるとわかるかな。 推しのグッズが人気すぎて買えない、どうしても欲しいからメルカリで買う‥となると、儲かるのは「転売した人」だけで、推しには追加の利益は入りません。 「推し」が活動を継続するためにはぶっちゃけると「お金」が必要です。応援するということは、推しに「お金を落とす」行為とも取れます。 それは商品でも同じ。 多くの商品は代理店が本社から仕入れて販売しています。 それを本社から直接購入した場合、代理店の利益はありません。つまり、継続して販売できなくなります。 こういった「商流」を考える機会は一般消費者側としてはまずないとは思いますが、消費者行動がグローバル化している今だからこそ、気づけるようになって欲しいなーと思います。
