Anime Holiday wishes

Happy holidays! I want to share some of my favorite show that celebrates the season.

Maison Ikkoku had some great moments for Christmas between Kyoko, Godai and the tenants and they all spend their party at the Chachamaru. The first Christmas was a few months after Kyoko became their manager and it was a social gathering. Godai brought the manager a brooch but did not get a chance to give it to her. The next Christmas, Godai’s present was a pair of earrings, but when Kozue gave him a hand knitted hat he handed her the earrings. When Kyoko gave Godai a hand knitted scarf, as well as the tennis coach and the tenants, he went to his room and found the brooch from last year. Godai was penniless as Christmas came again and got a part time work at a department store. He heard about her story about having a Christmas star. He gave her the star as well as the streamer that was hooked to it.

Love Hina celebrate the holidays it more of an adventure. When Kentaro was a little bit confident that he would pass his mock exam for Tokyo University or he goes home. He did not pass the mock exam and he was going to sneak home without telling the girls. He tries to infiltrate the house but was caught by Shinobu and that brought everyone out to attack the burglar. Only Naru knew that was Keitaro and found him at Tokyo U to conviced him to stay and study. To go into Love Hina Christmas Special would be too long, but I can tell you it is worth watching.

Ranma ½ Tendo Family Christmas Scramble is part of the OAV series set. It brings all the characters of the manga and anime together to celebrate the holiday and to see if Ranma would survive the beating of Akane, sing karaoke, being Nabiki’s money bank and to give Akane his gift to her. But mostly I think this story revolves around Kasumi and her Santa Claus dream.

Finally, Oh My Goddess episode 5, Keichi has found out the system bugs was coming to the human world by a vortex between himself and Belldandy and was forced not to be around each other. Plus Belldandy was called back to heaven to fix the problem. Little by little he is getting a memory that was suppressed a long time ago which made him want to give her a ring. The rest of the story goes into this, but at the end of the show they were celebrating Christmas.

There are many holiday stories I can look for but these were the one that stood out for me. I would like to give my wishes to everyone.
