NiftyKids Renews Children's Counseling Community "Kids Nann Demo Sodan"! Commemorative Campaign Offers Tablets and Hiyorin Stickers!

Nifty Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Kazunari Maejima; hereinafter "the Company") has renewed "Kids Nann Demo Sodan," a counseling community within its children's website "NiftyKids," and is launching a commemorative campaign today.

"Kids Nann Demo Sodan" is a community where children can think together about each other's worries. With this renewal, to ensure safer and more secure use of "Kids Nann Demo Sodan," we have introduced a new feature called "Jibun Code." This feature makes it possible to prevent impersonation by third parties. Additionally, if a post contains specific keywords (such as "bullying" or "school refusal"), an SOS counseling service guidance panel will be displayed, supporting children's safe internet use and problem-solving.

To commemorate this renewal, a campaign will be held from May 12, 2026 (Tuesday) to June 30, 2026 (Tuesday). During this period, participants who post consultations or replies, obtain a "Jibun Code," and apply for the campaign will be entered into a lottery to win a tablet (LAVIE Tab T8) for 20 people and "Hiyorin" puffy stickers, the NiftyKids character, for 100 people.

What is "Kids Nann Demo Sodan"? "Kids Nann Demo Sodan" started in 2009 as a community where children answer other children's questions, fostering peer-to-peer support. All posts are checked by NiftyKids staff, ensuring that personal information or slander is not made public.

Nifty provides a safe and secure online interaction space for children and supports their safe internet use.

Renewal Details

・Complete Design Renewal: The design has been completely revamped to allow children to operate more intuitively. It has been reborn with a design that is easy to view and use from any device, including smartphones and tablets.

・"Search Function": Search processing speed has been improved to allow for more comfortable searching for desired information or similar concerns.

・"Secret Password" and "Jibun Code": A secret password must be entered when posting consultations or replies. Based on the "secret password," a personal "Jibun Code" is generated. The "Jibun Code" is displayed after the nickname, making it possible to prevent impersonation by third parties.

・"Emojis": Emojis can be used in posts.

・"Harsh Comment Display/Hide": Users can switch between displaying and hiding harsh comments (blunt answers) themselves.

・"SOS Counseling Service Guidance Panel": To quickly connect children with serious concerns to appropriate support, if a post contains specific keywords (such as "bullying" or "school refusal"), a panel guiding to external specialized organizations such as "Children's SOS Counseling Service (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology)" and "Childline" will be displayed. This supports children's safer SNS use and problem-solving.
