I know Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji has christmas in it but only in like 3 episodes but it's still very good.

Watch "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, then watch the movie (The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya) for Christmas feels among many other feelings.

The movie is a masterpiece anyway, and the show is pretty much a classic even though it can get slow at times. Merry Christmas! :D

Toradora has a Christmas arc

Tokyo Godfathers is a great anime Christmas movie, a little odd a times but great none the less. As Christmas is more of a romantic thing in Japan then a family thing like it is here in the west, there aren't really all that many anime with the kind of Christmas theme we'd generally look for.

  We're quickly approaching that time of year again. The time of year where, as couples all across Japan confess their love to each other, we sit down in front of our computer screens to eat KFC with our waifus. That's right: it's Christmastime. In preparation for this festive season, let's all have a discussion of our favorite Christmas episodes or series.
  
  This season has already thrown a fun contender into the mix with Denki-Gai's episode 9. For those unfamiliar with the series, Denki-Gai features workers in a manga store, with a frequent focus on the, ah, less wholesome types of manga. The latter part of episode nine involves them distributing unwholesome books to lonely singles. Merry Erostmas.
  
  It has become a yearly tradition for me to watch My Santa on Christmas Eve. My Santa is a 2-episode OVA by the writer of Love Hina. It's about a boy named Santa born on Christmas Eve, who meets a girl named Mai. Mai happens to be a Santa Clause in training. It is wholly and utterly stupid (but then again, what Christmas specials aren't?). I absolutely love it.
  
  I know that there's a Christmas episode featured in Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne, though to be honest, I don't really remember much of it apart from this (fairly NSFW) scene
  
  And of course, there's the end of School Days. If you've seen it, you'll know what I'm talking about.
  
  So what Christmas (Or Hanukkah or Kwanza, but good luck finding those) episodes do you love, either earnestly or ironically? Be sure to let us know, and have a merry fuckin' Christmas.

Nothing can compete against Mio in the santa outfit.

Last year, I watched The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya and that was enjoyable. Ignoring the lack of presents of underneath the tree, it was pretty peaceful. Just me, that movie and a nice hot bowl of soup.

That reminds me...I need to find a good Christmas movie for this year...

And have a merry christmas everyone.

  If you havent seen it already you should watch Tokyo Godfathers

I'll be re-watching Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War In The Pocket this Christmas. 0080 is a 6 episode side story OVA set in the Universal Century (UC), in a neutral colony weeks before the end of the One Year War which happened to be around Christmas itself. It's a personal story of a little boy as he experiences the true meaning of war.

Molester man is my favorite manga to read around Christmas and New Year thanks to the live scanlation threads years ago on a certain anonymous imageboard. Never fails to warm my heart.

When I think of "anime" and "Christmas" together, I'm instantly reminded of the Toradora! Christmas episode(s). The party and song always put me in the Christmas spirit. Not to mention it's an important episode to the overall story and cements Taiga and Ryuji as one of my favorite anime couples, and Taiga as one of my favorite characters.

Clannad s2 when Tomoya and Ushio were together. One of the most saddest moments ive seen.
Also K-On! When Mio had to wear the santa outfit and when they went the the house to open gifts c:
- snakdol 11y
  Gonna rewatch that K-on! episode along with the New Years special, they're always fun.

I read the Itsudatte My Santa one shot. Probably one of my favorites for the Christmas Season
Ventulus 11y
Toradora has a really good set of christmas episodes.
Like Brian said, if you're looking for a movie you should check out Tokyo Godfathers.
CinnamonBass 11y
There was an episode of Hetalia The Beautiful World that had a Christmas episode I think. All I remember is America smashing through England's window in a Santa suit.

Tokyo Godfathers is a pretty cool anime Christmas movie.

  thanks :)

K-On & Lucky Star both have a christmas-themed episode, but I doubt that's interesting to watch without having seen the stuff before.

Not exactly christmas related, but really beautiful movies to watch on christmas:
1) Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi
2) Mononoke Hime

^ ep 12 is my favourite! (It corresponds to ch. 11 of the manga.)

There's also:

Hetalia Axis Powers
^ ep 31 (and its corresponding source material)

Sakamoto desu ga
^ ep 10 (? the one with Der Elkonig) is set on Christmas Eve, although it doesn't have any overtly Christmas vibes

Ore Monogatari
^ ep 17
