Section 1: About Nijikai

Due to popular demand for the return of Nijikai, guess it is the organizer job to make the fans gather once again!

Nijikai or niji party (niji in Japanese is rainbow or another meaning second, or can also mean 2 o'clock). Therefore Nijikai = rainbow party/ second party/ after party / 2 o'clock party

NOTE: This is a dedicated event for Fujyoshi / Fudanshi, however, we do not encourage hardcore or explicit actions in the public as this is after all a public event. So kindly refrain from performing hardcore or explicit actions during the event or you may be removed from the hall. (bows)

Dear all, just wanted to say that I won't be attending this year's Nijikai due to some reasons. There will not be any activities or representatives from AarinFantasy for this event. Have fun alright.

[bronakopdin]

@CrazyYaoiFanGal; just wanted to say that the text colour you chose is like totally invisible for people who use the black forum theme unless you highlight it, maybe it would be better to change the colour ^^

for preview purposes:

but thanks for posting and thanks to Aarin for the announcement (though as I'm from europe I couldn't attend either way... )

[Twinstar]

I edited the first post so it is the default color.

@Roveen ; Any pics or details of the event? Can tell us or those who didn't make it.
Unfortunately, I have to skip this year's because of a personal matter.

[Roveen]

haha, that's too bad @aarinfantasy; just so you know, this year's dakimakura has Rin and Haru in it (omg, I wanted it so bad) and sadly enough there wasn't any participants for the singing and voice-over competitions. The butlers' fanservice though was awesome. This year's butler cafe was a classroom setting, so students and a "sensei" was there. The rest of the event is pretty much fanservice I guess. Police Rin doing the hip rolls, Ervin x Levi x Eren, twincest, a bit of yuri added in, Spiderman being super in character (real joker XD).....stuff like that...
