Which Anime Characters will/should save Christmas? (2008 Edition)

[Suwako Moriya]

All right once more we're in the month of December and thus it's time for my somewhat traditional topic. In any case, as we've all learned from TV it's that Christmas often or rather almost always needs saving. Just that the person doing the saving tends to vary. So that's where this topic comes in.

Your mission is to let us know which anime character(s) will save Christmas this year. You can also let us know why Christmas is in trouble yet again. Which would include telling us who endanger Christmas. As well as explaining how the chosen ends up saving Christmas. Mainly stuff along those lines.

In any case, since people have had time to experience new series (at least to them) there should hopefully be a larger pool of inspiration to work from. So it will be interesting to see who is supposed to save Christmas this time. Let's just hope whoever it is, they're successful.

Terrorists kidnap Santa. Section 9 takes them out.

[something]

A legion of evil Kotomi clones invades earth and seeks to subjugate christmas and all humanity with their demonic violins. (On second thought, her violin is better than the dreck called Christmas music, but for the sake of argument...)

To the rescue comes Supaa Dango Shoujo Furukawa Nagisa, with dango daikazoku grenades in one hand and a skull-crushing steel birthday cake in the other (Happy Almost Birthday, Nagisa!). She defeats all the Kotomi clones and rescues the original Kotomi who had been kidnapped by the enemy for cloning and experimentation purposes.

Then they make out.

Christmas is saved.

The idea of evil Kotomi clones scares me. However the idea of Nagisa as a magical girl intrigues me. Also it's good to hear that she'll be saving the original Kotomi. Just that this story needs one more thing to be awesome. I just can't put my finger on what that would be....

Then they make out.

Ah of course! That's exactly what it needs to be awesome. The two making lovely "music" together while on a bed which just happens to have dango printed sheets. One of the best ways to save Christmas ever.

Christmas is saved.

You forgot her cute but largely useless sidekick Starfish Shoujo Ibuki Fuuko who does her best to help by tempting the Kotomi clones with gifts of carved starfish and starfish-shaped cakes, but usually ends up making things worse and disappearing without a trace.

What you're saying here is perhaps way too accurate. Still she could perhaps serve at least as a temporary distraction right?

If only I could draw...

[Kouji Tamino]

Amalgam kidnaps Santa to prod his brain due to the belief that he is a Whispered (Who else could come up with the 'technology' to travel around the world to deliver presents in one night?).

Mithril decides to intervene and rescue Santa due to the same belief, sending in the crew of the Tuatha de Danann and interrupting their Christmas party, thoroughly ticking off Kaname. She decides to tag along to make sure Santa doesn't become a civilian casualty.

Sousuke of course is completely skeptical that Santa even exists, but goes on the mission anyway. Over the course of the mission, he comes to believe and learns the true meaning of Christmas. The mission is completed when Kaname flirts with Leonard over the comm to distract him while Sousuke blasts him the Lambda Driver and the other members of the SRT take down the guards and extract Santa.

In the end, Sousuke and Kaname end up under the mistletoe, and we are left with the image of Kaname blushing while a confused Sousuke is teased by Kurtz and Mao and Tessa huffs in jealousy.

Though that could get scary sometimes. It's like adding "in bed" to the end of a fortune cookie...
