I'm really down for Hololive-themed peripherals, but I've always found this kind of pricing for just a keycap set way too much. The usual ~$60 is already pretty hard to justify imo.

That is the senpai tax.

Lots of merch is expensive, not just anime merch

Yup, merch is always expensive because you're paying profit margins on the product itself plus profits to the company/person (or both) that the merch is based on. Merch sales essentially have triple dipped profits.

Yup, full set of GMK keycaps will set you back $150. $60 is nothing in custom keyboard world.
