This month we take a look at two Christmas specials: one from the Pac-Man cartoon, and one from the Pokemon anime. The Pac-Man cartoon remains as baffling and boring as always, relying on the same non-joke about "chomping" for its entire duration. Meanwhile, the Pokemon Christmas special, "Stantler's Little Helpers" is very cute, but slight.

Somehow, both specials have the same plot: Santa injures his reindeer, and it's up to the heroes to drug them so they can get back in the air.
