Hey y'all, K. Flaps here to bring some christmasy joy into this dire forum by talking about anime christmas specials.

While western long noses celebrate christmas by visiting their families, going to church and advancing the collapse of society by indulging into buying lots of retarded crap like roombas and photo albums, the japanese do cool poo poo like going on a date to the local christmas tree& saying `sugoi desu ne`, eating chicken or becoming depressed because nobody wants to have sex with old women in their mid twenties



Theres lots of anime with christmas episodes and we should talk about them while snuggling up in our blankets and drinking hot cocoa.

Theres the Toradora christmas episode, in which Taiga sings a christmas duet with the girl who should've actually won the series




The K-On episode in which lovable retard Yui invited all the other keions to hang out at her house



Theres the Disappearance of Haruhi movie, which is essentially a christmas episode in movie form. Did you know Yuki is japanese for snow?


Pls ppost christmas gifs in this thread and talk about which shows have the best christmas episodes, so I can watch them on christmas eve when I'm hiding from my family somewhere in the basement

The Hidamari Sketch xHoneycomb Christmas episode has a Longcat hug pillow in it, so that's something.

The Osomatsu Christmas episode seemed pretty funny even though I haven't gotten around to watching most of the other Osomatsu episodes.

I honestly forgot all about the K-on Christmas episode. It's S2 right?

The Christmas episode of The Big O is pretty good and has the titular robot fighting a giant evil Christmas tree.

in retrospect the old redtext was a little over the top, I think I was in a bad mood that day. it appears you've learned your lesson about slagging our gods and masters at beamdog but I'm still going to leave this av up because i think its funny

god bless
There's really only one Christmas anime that we should all be watching:

the Christmas episode of Toradora is probably my favorite since it's just full of all sorts of emotions.


Sorry TigerDragon, Osomatsu-san came out of nowhere to claim the Xmas crown.

Is there a Nichijou Christmas episode? It's been a while since I stalled out, but I was just struck by an urge to watch more, and if there is that'd be very appropriate.

Episode 22

Of course, Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou is still superior.

There's an episode where Santa brings a guy melon bread and he throws it against the wall in anger.
