'Goddess of Victory: NIKKE' New Year story event, 'Arc Guardian', drew its final curtain on January 20th. It was a tale that struck a chord with players, blending genuine warmth with a touch of melancholy. Still buzzing from the narrative, a user in the official lounge has sparked quite the conversation by augmenting highlight scenes with AI-generated illustrations—a stark reminder of how far the tech has come. Meanwhile, over on the 'Blah Blah' official community, the discourse has shifted to field reports on the newest Nikke, 'Label'. Let’s dive into this week’s top stories.

YouTube Subscription Event

It has been a while, but the official Goddess of Victory: NIKKE YouTube subscription event is back. Simply subscribe to the official channel and 'like' the event video. Once done, take a screenshot as proof and upload it to the official lounge event board to enter. They are giving away official merchandise to 10 lucky winners, so be sure to participate before it closes on January 27th.

Label Verification and Field Reports

Ever since her debut, the new Nikke Label has been punching well above her weight class. Thanks to her unique skill that reduces damage received from 'Electric Code' enemies, she has become a meta-shifter in Special and Champion Arenas, specifically targeting the likes of Scarlet. Rumour has it she barely loses to Scarlet, even without Overload gear equipped.

Users on the official Blah Blah community have been busy sharing their build tests and performance reviews. We’ve seen everything from practical usage tips and skill upgrade recommendations to brave souls testing her against Electric Code Raptures. It’s clear the community is hooked. That said, don't expect her to replace your existing Burst 1 units for general Rapture content; she seems to struggle in that arena. Remember, the Label pickup ends on January 29th, so head over to Blah Blah if you want to get the scoop before pulling.

AI, Draw Me a Scene

The Arc Guardian event, which wrapped up on January 20th, really tugged at the heartstrings. It finally shed light on the identity of the Goddess Commander, the tragic end of Lilith, and the shifts in Snow White’s ideology—details that had been shrouded in mystery for so long. Naturally, some players were left craving more visual storytelling.

Enter a user in the official lounge known as 'Darfenon', who used the now-ubiquitous ChatGPT to craft supplementary illustrations for the event’s highlights. It seems even the AI was moved by the NIKKE narrative, producing some surprisingly high-quality art. While there are a few awkward edges, the emotional impact is undeniably doubled. If you’re curious to see how they turned out, check out Darfenon’s post.

The Secret Agent: 'Ade: Agent Bunny'

Today, we’re looking at 'Ade: Agent Bunny' (hereinafter 'Bunny Ade'). She is a new iteration of the Maid for You squad leader. The concept? She’s donned the bunny outfit for an undercover mission at Coin Rush. The sight of her without her glasses sent shockwaves through the player base upon reveal. We have Mustang, the CEO of Tetra, to thank for this particular choice in tactical attire.

Bunny Ade is a Burst 2, Iron Code, Supporter using a Sniper Rifle. Her unique trait is increasing her optimal range, effectively nullifying distance penalties while buffing her allies. As you know, NIKKE balances weapons based on optimal range, where attacking outside that window results in a damage penalty.

Bunny Ade uses 'Agent’s Gaze' to adjust her own optimal range while granting an ATK buff to the entire squad based on her own stats. Her 'Agent’s Movement' skill adds a Piercing damage buff, though bear in mind this only applies to allies who already possess the 'Piercing' ability. Her burst skill, 'Advanced Agent Gear', increases her range for 10 seconds and boosts both ATK and Piercing damage for the team.

Because of this, Bunny Ade has become a staple in Solo Raids, where you need a deep roster of Burst 2 buffers. She lacks healing, but her utility as a provider of Piercing, ATK, and damage buffs makes her essential for any Iron-weak Solo Raid. You can currently pull her from the standard recruitment wish list, and she is also available in the 2026 SSR Nikke Selection Box.

The origin of Ade’s bunny suit lies in a request from Mustang to infiltrate Coin Rush and secure a target. She initially agreed, but the moment she heard the Commander would be tagging along, she pulled the plug. Her excuse? Pure embarrassment. She didn't mind the bunny suit itself; she just couldn't bear to let the Commander see her in it. Naturally, Mustang simply forced the issue by crafting a bespoke bunny outfit for her anyway. Her reaction when she finally meets the Commander is, frankly, adorable. Check out her personal story and counseling sessions to see for yourself.

Drake vs. Sin

Last time, we held a balance debate between 'Arcana vs. Label'. It was a tight race, but Arcana snatched the win by a margin of two votes. Both are impeccably efficient librarians who would track down any document in seconds, but it seems Arcana’s flirtatious charm won the day, despite Label’s stellar performance in the latest story event.

Have you heard of the famous maid cafes in Japan? They’re a staple of Akihabara, and even recently made waves by opening a branch near Hongdae.. A key feature of these cafes is the maids soliciting customers outside. Since wearing a maid outfit in public is hardly standard in modern society, it’s bound to turn heads.

Goddess of Victory: NIKKE has its own version, run by the popular Maid for You squad. Rumour has it the staff occasionally includes Ark villains, court officials, and prison escapees. While walking near the cafe, I spotted Drake and Sin out on the street, soliciting customers. Which one would you stop for? We’ll reveal the results in next week’s Weekly Forum Highlight.
