Christmas in Anime

This is not a strange thing, some of the mundial known holidays (as Hallowen or Christmas) are present on anime, especially on Slice of Life ones.

Do you remember any?

If you ask me, I remember the christmas episode of Lucky Star (was not totally christmas themed, but was funny)
Another nice one is Martian Successor Nadesico, with a christmas party included.
I thought there was one in GS Mikami, but I don't remember close.

I remember it in that one Rockman OVA.
And Azumanga Daioh, though just as a silly gag thing.

I guess that's it, maybe.

Funny thing: Christmas in anime (and Japanese culture more generally) is actually viewed as a primarily romantic holiday, sort of like Valentine's Day is in the west. It's also traditionally commemorated by eating fried chicken, of all things.

I can't recall any specific Christmas episodes from shows I watched though, though I think Super Sonico had one where the eponymous character dressed in a sexy santa outfit and handed out fliers to kids or somesuch. (Not as wrong as it sounds in context)

Toradora had a really great Christmas episode, and iirc the end of School Days took place around Christmas. Amagami SS is all about romance and Christmas. Tokyo Godfathers is a really good film takes place on Christmas Eve. Last one I can think off of the top of my head is Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, which does take place during Christmas time but isn't actually very Christmas themed. Really good though.

While not directly Christmas themed, White Album, White Album 2 and Kanon (2006) are heavily winter themed. Well, iirc White Album had direct references and events related to Christmas, but I don't think White Album 2 or Kanon 2006 had any. They are depressing as shit but if you like depressing melancholic romance set in winter time they are probably the best you can get.
