Any good Christmas themed anime movies/shows?

Default Any good Christmas themed anime movies/shows?
Hey guys, every year around this time I always get this nostalgia for all those old cartoon Christmas specials I always loved so much. Now, I was just wondering if there were any Christmas themed anime movies or shows that are worth checking out during the holiday season.

Thanks!

You could try Itsudatte My Santa!, which isn't so much good as it is hilariously bad, but it fits your needs.

It's main problem is that it's entertainment is at such a primitive level that you would expect it to be marketed towards children, but they decided to fill the show with fanservice and random nudity. They developed it just right so that it appeals to no one. Check out the English dub.

There's a bit of snow in Metropolis! I think it's a good movie

Of course, the reason for the fanservice can be explained by the fact this is based on a short story by Ken Akamatsu (Love Hina, Negima).

I watched that since one of my friends had it and I'm glad I never buyed it or even paid to rent it. It was so terrible and the fan service wasn't even worth the time. As for Christmas themed anime, plenty of series have a Christmas or at least a winter themed related episode in them. A little bit a Google-fu can find some stuff.
Insert clever text/image here.

Tokyo Godfathers is a great Christmas anime.
