You should have made this poll multiple choice, as I would have selected all three options.

I think it's cool to read a manga or watch an anime and see them celebrate Christmas... EVEN THOUGH ONLY 1% IS CHRISTIAN!!  It's just a "buy-a-bunch-of-crap-for-people" holiday.

It's also kind of strange to see 24 year olds that look like 12 year olds running around in skimpy outfits going Christmas shopping.

Wow.

Look, it's Yuzuyu from Aish**teruze Baby (great manga by the way, only 7 volumes!) in a Christmas outfit!

Isn't she adorable?  She looks kinda ugly when they show her older at the end, though.  Oh, well.  Her cousin is really hot.  I forget his name right now though.

There are few things I can think of that I care less about.

I don't see how these celebrations could be made worse by Asian influence.  However Asia is constantly being degraded by its absorbtion of western influences.

It really bugs me when the Japanese talk about Yakimoto Claus coming down the chimney.
