Sakura Season
🌸 Sakura Season was the first season Nani Pix ran, held Oct 12–22, 2026. Its games are slice-of-life, romance and school anime under a watercolor wash, clues cost a quarter less, and there is a pass, a shop, objectives, a stamp for your profile and three achievements of its own. The group’s admins pick when it runs (see Scheduling seasons).
This page lists everything the season gives. How the pieces work in general is on the pages for Season Coins and the Season Pass, the Season Shop, cosmetics, your profile and achievements.
The rules of the season
Section titled “The rules of the season”- Theme. Only slice-of-life, romance or school anime can be played in a season game. An anime qualifies when it carries the Slice of Life or Romance genre or the School theme. When you pick one that doesn’t, Nani Pix says right away which kind of anime is allowed and asks for another, before you choose a screenshot. That holds whether you found the anime by search, picked it from your MAL list or typed its name. When she can’t tell what genre the anime is, she asks you to pick a different one, or to find it by name in Shikimori or Tenrai search.
- Watercolor. The pixelated pictures of the season’s games are painted in a watercolor style.
- Clues cost 25% less in the season’s games, on top of any HARD MODE sale (see Season clue discount).
- Premium costs 300 💠, and leftover 🪙 turn into 💠 at 2 for 1 when the season ends.
