토론 Topic 12: What are your thoughts on holiday themes, like Christmas, Easter and Halloween, featuring in 아니메 series?

Eh, they're alright I guess. I'm not a huge 팬 of these kinds of theme uses, but sometimes they can be used well. I liked the 할로윈 depictions of One Piece characters that have been made - it's a good way to enjoy watching your 가장 좋아하는 characters stretch a little beyond that's normal for them and into something 당신 understand at least partially.

The artwork, I like. During the holidays, fanartists draw all kinds of pictures of their 가장 좋아하는 characters in holiday scenes, and some are pretty good. On the other hand, I don't really care either way about seeing the actual theme in the series itself. If it just happens to be that time of year, according to the series' storyline, then so be it. But a 랜덤 filler episode with no real plot relevance to make a joke about the holidays? Oh God, spare me.

I 사랑 it. It's "fun" to me :) & I wish there was 더 많이 of it! I grew up on special shows for kids airing at Easter, Halloween, Christmas, Valentines Day- Charlie Brown, & other kid specials for such times and it always made me happy & excited! I wouldn't miss it! 'But then I am bias.

As a big kid, lol, I like watching certain new shows & I'd 사랑 my animes to do more. What I do not care for is that special segment aired at an off-time not correlating, lol. (like showing their 크리스마스 episode in March! BOO. lol. That takes the "specialness" out of it when they do that.) But I am a 팬 of the non-generic 더 많이 special the better -NESS. :)

I usually like those episodes.... especially if the 아니메 thinks outside the box of 'cliche' 크리스마스 episodes and does something different.

Like the Kimi to Boku episode [pictured]... it was humorous like the rest of the 아니메 so it flowed really well. And they got roped into having to help.... it's like the 제목 should be "The 크리스마스 that went Wrong." But it turned out fun in the end and definitely made me laugh.

But overall, 크리스마스 episodes make me smile... they are usually cheesy but oh well, they make me happy. Which is what 크리스마스 should be. And usually it takes characters out of their usual every 일 lives and adds in some fun and cute moments.

I also really like Valentines 일 episodes and I absolutely 사랑 the traditional Japanese festival holiday episodes. :)
