Christmas may be three and a half weeks away, but that doesn't mean it's too early to get into the holiday spirit. (The stores started putting Christmas stuff out before Thanksgiving, so the commercial world has long since been in the holiday spirit.) So here are some holiday treats for you to enjoy.

Even though we haven't yet watched LittleKuriboh's version of A Christmas Carol, I'm posting these now anyway. After all, you don't have to have seen Yami no Bakura as the Ghost of Christmas Future in order to enjoy these.



Also, I attempted to post these to the community, but until my other post goes through the queue, I can't submit anything else, so, in order to save myself from having to find these videos again, I'm posting these AMV Christmas specials here for now. (I apologize to those of you who are not Christian; unfortunately, the Japanese do not celebrate Hanukkah or Kwanzaa. They barely celebrate Christmas.)

WELCOME, FIRST-YEARS AND TRANSFERS!

Thank you to all the "newbies" who joined Bellatrix this year. While it's a little intimidating to see so many people in the room on anime night (I have yet to attend a sci-fi night, unfortunately), it's also very exciting. So thank you, and welcome!

P.S. I've been asked to spread the word that there's an LJ user to makes anime-themed LJ icons. (All of my Bleach icons were made by her.) Her name is downtown_sassy and she is awesome, so be sure to visit her journal and check out her icons.
