Sit back, it's a long story.

Neon City Archives started out as a concept after finishing 3DS Miitopia back in early 2021. The concept was inspired by the Ex-Dark Lord's limited interactions with the protagonist of the game, especially in post-game.

Miitopia was the stepping stone in learning more about Miis and reigniting Webmaster's love for Miis.

Eventually, The Weight of Miitopia (or TWoM, for short) was born, a fanfiction concept of post-game Miitopia and an expansion of its lore. It was never formally written though, and was shelved due to Webmaster's uncertainty about their writing quality.

However, their love for Miitopia and Miis made The Weight of Miitopia a constant floating idea in Webmaster's mind. Hence, in the following years, Dear Saviour of Miitopia was born, a loose spin-off one-shot of The Weight of Miitopia that was made to test the waters of Webmaster's writing ability, and to see how it would be received on Archive of Our Own (Ao3) in 2023.

(Since this site is a work-in-progress, if you want to go ahead and read Dear Saviour of Miitopia on Ao3, you can here.)

With positive reception, Webmaster kept TWoM in mind for the next few years, until finally they gathered all their courage and diligence to tackle on this project that had been floating in their mind for four years.

Webmaster knew that the Mii community would've wanted more Mii content anyway, and was determined in spreading the Mii love, regardless of how amateur they think their skills might be.

Neon City Archives is a love letter to all Mii fans. From a Mii fan, for Mii fans.

Learning about and creating a personalized website was a great way to host the collection online, along with corresponding updates, and other fun stuff for fans to enjoy.

Written works here will be cross-posted on Ao3, of course. That door is always open for those who prefer reading Neon City Archives' content on Ao3 for whatever reasons.

Keep in mind that Webmaster's a newbie to programming, they hope they can continue to learn it alongside developing their own art and writing practices here on NCArchives.

Yeah, very funny. Neon City Archives is named after the Japanese name for New Lumos from Miitopia, being ネオンシティ (Neon City). It's a location that holds prominence within the story, and this series needed a name other than "The Weight of Miitopia Series", anyway.

This website's aesthetic is aimed to be Technozen! Webmaster was drawn to this calming aesthetic and thought this category of Frutiger Aero would resonate strongly with fans. It's an aesthetic that's a little hard to emulate though...
