Introduction to Niji Nights 2026

It’s that time of year again when summer is in full swing and we’re celebrating festival after festival and event after event. Where Star and I live, our city is so filled with celebrations that they moved our annual Pride event to July. Which means this year, we decided to push our seven Niji Nights to July as well. But the format still stays the same, so if you’ve been around the blog a long time then you know the drill, but if you’re brand new: welcome. To give you a run down, for the next seven days on our blog, we’ll be shouting loud and proud to LGBTQIA+ in anime, manga, and webtoons. To give you a sneak preview of some of the great content you can expect in the next seven days, we’ll be featuring posts highlighting queer-coded anime, touching on the relationship between Buddhism and queerness, delving into the wide realm of the Omegaverse, and so much more!

Stick around the next few days to see what great content we’ll be cooking up next, and if you want more Niji Night action, you can check out past events here.

  5. […] At the end of the day, no. Karaoke Iko! Is not officially a BL, but yes. I think the possibility of it being interpreted as such is there. It’s queer coded enough while still playing it safe as Satomi is still underage in the story. Now, I’m just curious what the sequel to this story is like. While not in anime form yet, I did read that there is a sequel manga that features Satomi working in a store as an adult. If it picks up where Karaoke Iko left off, I wonder if it’d finally answer the question if the story was intended as a BL or not. Until now, we’ll take what we’ve got, question it endlessly, but enjoy it for all that it is. See you in the next day of Niji Nights 2026! […]
