You can now find items just by describing them. Type something like a long dress with stars, purple gothic, a held umbrella, or cat ears, and Stylist Search shows you the closest matching items from across the whole game. No more trying to remember the exact name. You can search by the look or the feeling you have in mind.

Results appear as on model pictures in a clean gallery. Tap any item to open its page. You can focus on a single category like dresses or hair, narrow further into sub types such as necklaces or leglets, and when you are signed in you can see which items you already own right there in the results. Every search is shareable too. The address in your browser carries it, so you can send a search straight to a friend.

Each result also has a copy button that copies the exact item name, so you can paste it into the game while you are putting an outfit together for a competition or just for fun.

It works from the other direction too. Open any item page and you will see a new Style and appearance section that lists its look, themes and details. Tap any of those and Stylist Search brings up more items like it, so one piece you love leads you straight to others.

Stylist Search is free for everyone. It is a complete rebuild of the old stylist search, which only ever covered a small handful of items and was much harder to use.

For NI Extra supporters there is a little more. You can gather items from your searches into named mood boards that save to your account, so you can plan a competition outfit, collect a colour theme, or simply keep the looks you love in one place. Add an item to a board with a tap, give the board a name, and open it any time as its own gallery. If you are not a supporter yet you can still see exactly how mood boards work, and connecting your Patreon unlocks them along with the rest of NI Extra.

You will find it in the menu under Stylist Search. Your boards live on the Mood Boards page.

This page is new. From now on, whenever something changes on Nikki's Info, we will jot it down here so you can see what is new at a glance.

The guide picks souls more wisely now. It takes the soul's spirit skill bonus into account, so it suggests the soul that actually scores highest for a stage and stops occasionally leaving the soul slot empty. Recommended items also group all the headwear together in the usual order, which makes the suggestions easier to follow.

More than 33,000 items now have a preview on the site, shown on Nikki so you can see how each one actually looks when it is worn. That is 33,219 items, every single one we have art for.

It now includes the animated ones too, like flowing hair, drifting petals, butterflies and falling flowers, and even the effect only pieces like Lunar Fragrance and Butterfly Dance. The only item still without a preview is an item not used in the game (including the CN version).

A big pass over the previews fixed a lot of small things. Skin tones, tattoos and face decals now show properly instead of being hidden, around 654 shoes show their full art, several dresses that were missing panels render correctly, and a few items that used to show a bare body now show their modesty layer. Makeup previews are cropped to the face so they no longer trail a long strand of hair down the image.

Suit pages now let you add or remove the whole suit from your wardrobe in one click, instead of ticking each piece on its own. They also show the styling gift box you get for completing the suit, along with what is inside it.

Tags now group items the same way the game does. Accessories that used to be split across two groups are together under a single accessory tag, so a tag search shows everything in that category in one place. It used to miss thousands of accessories. Tag pages also show how many items matched, right above the results.

Royce's Dreamweaver page was listing some unrelated story stages by mistake. It now shows only the styling stage you actually play.

The whole beta site is now part of the main site as NI Extra.

If you support Nikki's Info on Patreon you become an NI Extra supporter and get an ad free version of the entire site, the Expert guide that builds the best outfit it can for a stage out of the items you actually own with full scoring, and expert stage tracking so you can mark the stages you have already done. There is no separate beta site to visit anymore, it all lives here.

Everything else on Nikki's Info stays free for everyone. See the NI Extra page for the details.

The big item pages open quickly now instead of freezing your browser. Your wardrobe, the drops list, what is new, top items, the suit list, tag search and the decompose guide used to struggle with thousands of items. They open right away and scroll smoothly now, even the huge accessory list.

The drops page now lists every monthly sign in reward, pulled straight from the game, all the way up to the current months. Before this it only showed a short hand kept list that was missing most of the newer months.

Some accessories were showing a blank space instead of their icon in places like the guides, top items and the drops list. Their pictures show up properly now.

The chapter list is split into Volume 1, 2 and 3 sections now, so it is easier to jump to the part of the story you want. The Volume 3 chapters like Kingdom of Snow and Dawn of the Long Night show their correct volume and chapter numbers too.

The commission stage list now reads how many stages there are straight from the game, instead of a fixed number that could fall behind. So it always shows the correct set of commission stages.

We removed the old Twitter feed box from the front page. It had stopped loading anything, so it was just taking up empty space.

Search handles typos, dots, hearts, curly quotes and accents in item names much better now, and it ranks the closest matches first. Items that used to be impossible to find because of an unusual character show up where you expect them.

Fixed the login page redirect and an error that could happen when logging out, so signing in and out is smooth again. Saving your wardrobe no longer occasionally fails, and a few errors people hit when importing a wardrobe or doing things while logged out are sorted too.

You can now link your Patreon account to your MyNI account right on the site, with a one click Connect Patreon button on your account page. Once it is linked your NI Extra perks unlock automatically across the whole site, and they stay in sync if your support changes.

Item previews are now shown on Nikki, so you can see how a piece looks when it is actually worn instead of as a flat image. The previews load as you scroll, so pages stay quick.

We moved Nikki's Info to faster and more reliable hosting, with cleaner page addresses and a nicer page not found screen.

This is also the first time I have brought in Claude Code to help with the site, which is why a lot of the changelog says we. I would rather be honest about that than pretend otherwise. A lot of what you see here would have taken me months on my own, and instead it took days. The move itself was mostly behind the scenes, but it is the groundwork that made everything else here possible.

Nikki's Info is caught up with game version 11.1.1, the current version of the game. The site had fallen well behind, so this was a big one. It brought in 4,373 new items, plus hundreds of new suits and over a hundred new stage guides, along with the thousands of new pages that go with them. The missing item icons were filled in at the same time, so almost every item shows its picture now.
