Fanart Friday: A Dandadan Christmas

Oh my gosh, our little trio here looks so cute! Aira the reindeer, Okarun the (self-assured?!) elf, and a very Christmas-y, bow-tied Momo! Oh and wait…Turbo Granny is in the shot, too—just like the family pet in a Christmas photo who does not want to be there! Love it! ★ 【Shiren】 「 Merry Christmas🎅🎄 」… Read More Fanart Friday: A Dandadan Christmas

Fanart Friday x 12 Days of Christmas Anime, Day 9: Miku Claus!

It wouldn’t be a terribly unpleasant change for that jolly old fat man to be replaced by a happy, cute Vocaloid sliding down the chimney and delivering presents. Maybe St. Nick could ask Miku to help him out with a few million households this Christmas Eve… ★ 【箱hako】「 圣诞快乐 」 ☆

Fanart Friday, Too: A Powerful Christmas

This piece is super pretty (as are all of moshimoshibe’s illustrations), but can you imagine just how gross and messy a Christmas party with Power and Denji would be? Poor Aki… ★ 【moshimoshibe】「 christmaspower 」 ☆

Fanart Friday: Neon Christmas Evangelion

Just some food for thought. ★ 【Fadingz/ twitter】「… Read More Fanart Friday: Neon Christmas Evangelion

Fanart Friday: Miku Christmas

Artist Linfi-MUU seems to create a beautiful Christmas-themed Miku illustration every single Christmas. Here’s hoping we’ll get another in 2021 to join the beautiful drawings below! ★ 【Linfi-MUU】「 1 / 2 / 3 」 ☆
