A work/episode/story takes place during Christmas-time, and it's action-packed. "Peace on Earth, Goodwill towards man" kind of gets left by the wayside when some people just want some good, old fashioned fights and explosions. Maybe they're finding a way to channel their aggression from shopping? This is a common occurrence when action/adventure-oriented shows want to do a Christmas Special, but they know the viewers are tuning in expecting some ass-kicking action. If there's a soundtrack, The Nutcracker will be optional. Carol of the Bells is indispensable! This is only about action works. The way to know is if you take the Christmas elements out, it would be straight-up action. And even if a work isn't directly about Christmas, a lot of action works get some of their best business around this time. Can overlap with Badass Santa (would be a Sub-Trope, but sometimes a work with that trope takes place at other times of the year), Did I Mention It's Christmas? (if the Christmas elements aren't remotely integral to the story, just mentioned occasionally) and Santabomination (when the heroes discover the hard way that Santa is a murderous monster and must fight to survive). May involve instances of Chaos of the Bells. Compare Saving Christmas, Twisted Christmas (especially if it has a Downer Ending). |

Although the exact date in The Walking Dead Season 2 is left unclear, it is implied that one of the game's episodes takes place on Christmas since it's winter time, the group is huddled together near the fireplace, the Christmas tree is decorated, and Clementine's group is fighting for their lives against zombies and threatening people out in the snow. | |

Arthur Christmas has elements of this. A variety of misunderstandings lead to NORAD thinking that Arthur's attempt to deliver a present for a kid that was (accidentally) left out of Santa's list is an alien invasion, which leads to the armies of the world unleashing all of their available firepower in order to "save Christmas". | |

The Bourne Identity takes place in December, in Switzerland and France. Aside from a wetter Paris, there's a snowy winter throughout the entire film and there are frequently seen Christmas lights and trees, and holiday season markets and events. While on the run from Treadstone assassins in the French countryside, Bourne and Marie stay at a farmhouse of her old friend and his kids, full of Christmas decorations. The five of them spend Christmas Eve dinner together, complete with typical French Christmas hits heard on the radio (including the French version of Deck the Halls). Right the next morning, instead of focusing on presents, the people at the farmhouse are besieged by the same assassin who shot dictator Wombosi mere days before. Bourne has to get creative to lure him away and take him out, then prepare a plan to go back to Paris and confront Treadstone agents on his own. The finale is set between Christmas and New Year's Eve. | |

Justice League of America: There was a story in the 70s called "2000 Light Years to Christmas!" In it, the League must recover three powerful objects that some aliens have lost on Earth; one of them falls in the hands of a little girl who lost her family in a Middle Eastern war and uses it for revenge against the invaders. While there is plenty of action, in the end, the girl is convinced to surrender the object peacefully by Red Tornado. It is later revealed that the objects were actually intended as gifts... for a messiah being born in another world! Oh, and Tornado, who is an android, adopts the little girl as his daughter. There's another one-shot (JLA #60, or in the Terror Incognita trade paperback) where Plastic Man, helping friends on Christmas Eve, has to tell a story to get their son off to sleep. He spins a yarn of Santa Claus helping the JLA to deal with the demon, Neron, which includes use of his 'heat vision'. Martian Manhunter, listening in on Plastic Man's open communicator, is able to use his powers to convince the son that Santa does have heat vision but still can't believe that Plastic Man came up with the idea of Santa having heat vision Neither can Santa himself who is revealed at the end to also have been listening in ... |

Eureka became fond of doing Christmas Episodes about halfway through its run. While minor examples compared to most they could still qualify. The first had the town preparing for an air-raid when an unidentified bogie breached its airspace, cue Santa flying through town crashing into several buildings it was Taggert pioneering the scientific field of Santology. The second featured an antagonist sninja, snowman-ninja, complete with anime-style ass-kicking climax. | |

Zig-zagged in the Justice League Christmas episode. Clark brings Martian Manhunter to the Kent farm, Flash finds some orphans the year's most popular toy but had a fight with the Ultra-Humanite in the process, and John (Green Lantern) takes Shayera (Hawkgirl) sledding, which turns into a super-powered Snowball Fight. Shayera then shows John what she does for fun - visit alien bars and start fights. The episode ends with them (and the rest of the brawlers) passed out, sleeping peacefully. | |

The prologue to Grand Theft Auto V takes place on a freezing December night in 2004. In Ludendorff, North Yankton's bank, decorations festoon the lobby, and a snowstorm is moving through town. It's a perfect night for a heist that culminates in an epic gunfight and police chase into the countryside. | |

The He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983)/She-Ra: Princess of Power crossover Christmas Movie had the twins and their allies fighting to protect two Earth children from Horde Prime because of the villain's fear of their "Christmas Spirit." (To be fair, when being evil is your stock in trade you don't want people to be happy, anyway.) The day is saved, of course... by Skeletor! Apparently, Horde Prime was right to worry about the Christmas Spirit being infectious. | |

The Christmas special of the Warrior comic book is an infamous case of this, featuring the Ultimate Warrior taking a turn as Santa Claus, as well as... other things. Horrible, horrible things. | |

The Hebrew Hammer is a parody of this, being a Jewsploitation film about a Jewish Private Detective who has been brought on to save Hanukkah after a very progressive and tolerant Santa Claus is murdered and usurped by his son Damian, who wants to make it mandatory that Everyone Is Christian at Christmas. He ends up Saving Christmas on the way, with the help of the Kwanzaa Liberation Front. It's that kind of movie. | |

The one-shot Christmas special Santa vs. the Snowman features the eponymous snowman, envious of Santa's popularity, and his armies of minions facing off against Santa's elves and nutcracker mecha. It's all played as over-the-top comedy, and other than the non-sentient snow minions nobody really gets hurt. | |

Marvel Two-in-One: The Thing's first team-up with Ghost Rider takes place on Christmas Eve and is titled "Silent Night… Deadly Night!" It begins with Johnny Blaze coming across what appears to be the Three Wise Men and seemingly ending up in Bethlehem, while the Thing is busy celebrating Christmas with his loved ones (except Mister Fantastic, who's being a workaholic even at this time of year). Eventually, the Thing ends up at the same place as Ghost Rider and helps him solve this mystery. It turns out this was just a scheme by Miracle Man (a minor Fantastic Four villain), who brainwashed the inhabitants of an Indian reservation into believing they were part of the Nativity Story and created a child totally immaculately to show that he was absolute and could obtain godhood. | |

The made-for-TV movie The Crossing depicts the below-mentioned crossing of the Delaware and Battle of Trenton, including the popular but untrue notion that the efficacy of the ambush was due to the Hessians being fantastically hungover after a German Christmas. (In truth they were undermanned, despite several requests for British backup, and moreover did not expect Washington to throw his entire army at them in one go.) | |

DC Animated Universe: Batman: The Animated Series: "And now, the Christmas Special nobody wants to see, but everyone will watch. It's Christmas with the Joker!" There's also the second Christmas special, with three stories set over the Christmas to New Year period. The first story has Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy kidnap Bruce Wayne, the second has Batgirl, Harvey Bullock and Renee Montoya fighting Clayface in a shopping mall on Christmas Eve, and the third has Batman and Robin stopping The Joker from killing thousands of people at the New Year countdown in Gotham Square. Zig-zagged in the Justice League Christmas episode. Clark brings Martian Manhunter to the Kent farm, Flash finds some orphans the year's most popular toy but had a fight with the Ultra-Humanite in the process, and John (Green Lantern) takes Shayera (Hawkgirl) sledding, which turns into a super-powered Snowball Fight. Shayera then shows John what she does for fun - visit alien bars and start fights. The episode ends with them (and the rest of the brawlers) passed out, sleeping peacefully. |

3615 code Père Noël (released in English as Dial Code Santa Claus, Deadly Games, Game Over, and Hide and Freak) is a 1989 French thriller about a young boy named Thomas who, in an attempt to communicate with Santa Claus, accidentally contacts a local criminal who finds out that his mother is the manager of a department store. The drifter sets out to rob Thomas' house while dressed as Santa, forcing Thomas into a cat-and-mouse game of survival. Notable for having allegedly inspired Home Alone (a charge that John Hughes denied), to the point where writer/director René Manzor considered suing for plagiarism. | |

However, in the actual game, the zombies wiped out Willamette during Christmas time, but Frank and Brad don't investigate the town until January. With few living people left, the Christmas decorations are still there. | |

The Whateley Universe authors really like this trope. "Christmas Elves" has Fey and Generator in a fight to the death inside a Syndicate hardsite. "Ayla and the Grinch" has Phase against a serial killer that turns out to actually be a demon. "Silent Nacht" has Nacht in a half-dozen battles, being manipulated by her mother, and temporarily ascending to Godhood and freeing herself of the Bell Witch's domination. "There's an Angel in Father John's Basement" has Seraphim, "Christmas Crisis" has Tennyo, "Have Yourself an Evil Little Christmas" has most of the Bad Seeds (except Nacht, of course, and Dragonrider is elsewhere as well), "Summoning Sweeties" has Gateway and Bladedancer, "The Case of the Poisonous Patent" has Loophole and her friends, "Have Yourself a Monkey Little Christmas" has Chaka and Bladedancer, hell, even Aquerna takes on a mugger in "Straight From the Squirrel's the Mouth"... And all of these take place during the same Christmas break, and that's not even counting the waking nightmare that came at the end of Outcast Corner's trip to Australia, during which they had to fight a running battle with an immortal A-List supervillain bent on slaughtering the entire city of Darwin! | |

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: In the Cold Open of "The Pontiac Bandit Return", Det. Jake Peralta is undercover, dressed as Santa on a stakeout. Then suddenly his nemesis Doug Judy appears and Jake chases him in the very impractical costume. Then he and his partner Rosa Diaz search for him in a lot where they sell Christmas trees. After Jake gets him, they knock down a heater and some of the trees immediately catch fire. Jake, happy to have caught Judy & still dressed as Santa, sees a couple of kids that happen to be in the lot and yells at them: "Take a good look, kids. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE NAUGHTY!" In "Yippee Kayak", Jake, Charles, and Gina are trapped in a department store on Christmas Eve as it's being robbed. Being a huge Die Hard fanboy, Jake geeks out over the chance to try and live the film out for real. |

Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers did have the season 3 episode "I'm Dreaming of a White Ranger". However, we didn't see a Christmas Episode for a long time because the seasons begin in February and end in November. Power Rangers Samurai had the first ones in a long time, one each for both years it ran, but the first was a Clip Show. | |

American Dad!: The show typically has a rather surreal Christmas Episode, but Season 5's "Rapture's Delight" takes the cake, with a bizarre crossover parody of Left Behind and homage to Mad Max and Escape from New York. After the Rapture, badass Jesus recruits a grizzled, bitter, hook-handed Stan on one last mission to raid the Antichrist's lair and rescue Francine using lots of guns and explosives. It must be seen to be believed. In season 6, Steve accidentally killed Santa, so the family buried his body in the woods. Only, Santa wasn't quite dead, and using the powers of science Santa was healed, only to swear revenge on the Smiths. This eventually led to a bloody battle between the family and Santa and his army of elves. Although the battle was cut short because he had to leave at daybreak, he promised to return to kill them next year. In the Season 10 episode "Minstrel Krampus" Steve's excessive brattiness causes him to be taken by Krampus, with whom he forms a kind relationship with. Santa comes and kills Krampus because the latter punishes naughty children and thus cut into Santa's children count. In the end Stan's dad Jack takes Krampus's place. The Season 14 episode "Ninety North, Zero West" shows that Santa is a complete maniac. He kidnaps children to use as forced labor in order to dig out a hug mine so he can summon Humbaba and become all-powerful. Jack takes over Santa's palace while the Smiths leave with the surviving children and Santa crawls out of the ruins. |

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3: The events of "Holy Night XIII" take place on Christmas Eve, when the Primal Dragon BB went berserk (at least by Kirin's reckoning) due to getting stood up by a possible date. Dragon Radiation did the rest of the job, and now there's a Grim Reaper Adept flying around terrorizing the neighborhood, made worse by how the Sumeragi peacekeepers (annoyed at being called on job during a holiday) and robots that evacuated citizens before things got worse end up infected by his Dragon Radiation and start running amock themselves. This forces Kirin and GV to head in and neutralize/calm down all hostiles. | |

In Worldwar: War of Equals, a joint American/Canadian operation appropriately nicknamed "Operation Eve'' strikes at vulnerable occupied positions between St. Louis and Jefferson City. Ground forces are inserted into key areas and destroy Race anti-armor and air emplacement. By the time kids were waking up for gifts from old St. Nick, we gave Race forces a gift by relieving them of their territory and leave the lizards on the run. | |

The first Yakuza game (and its remake) takes place around Christmas 2005. This results in just the occasional Sexy Santa Dress around the red light district. The second game, set In-Universe a year later, follows suit. Yakuza 5 returns to being set during Christmas 2012, with Sapporo being the most blatant city to celebrate it thanks to their winter festival. Yakuza 6 also returns to Christmas, being set during December 2016. Its spin-off subseries Judgment and the sequel Lost Judgment are also set during Christmas 2018 and 2021 respectively, with both games spilling well into the new year for their finales. | |

The Chronicles Of Oz's adaptation of The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus takes the war between the Immortals and Awgwas a step further and has it actually take place on Christmas Eve in conjunction with Claus's first Christmas toy run in the Emerald City, as making children happy weakens the Awgwas and their powers. This scale tipping ultimately forces King Awgwa to try and kill Claus himself in the Emerald City palace. | |

The anime of Cat Planet Cuties has the last three episodes take place at Christmas. The Catian mothership is attacked and taken over by Dogisian forces, and its orbit is set to decay and crash into Earth, forcing the humans to blow the ship up if the main characters can't stop it in time. They do, and the Catians give humanity a 'Christmas gift' in the form of a space elevator that looks like a giant Christmas tree. | |

Batman: Batman goes through this all. the. friggin'. time. If there's one hero that never takes the day off during the holidays, it's Batman. His enemies LOVE to stir up crap during Christmas, especially guys like the Joker, Mr. Freeze, and the Calendar Man. In the 2023 mini-series Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight, the Bat-Family, plus a few DC superheroes, join forces with Santa Claus to defeat a horde of vampires during Christmas Time. |

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing's final Story Arc took place in December, with the final battle coming on Christmas Eve; the OVA (and The Movie) Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, which takes place a year later, labels the events of the series "the Eve Wars". The final battle of said OVA also takes place on Christmas Eve. A 2020 Anime News Network article even suggest that Endless Waltz beats out Die Hard as the ultimate Christmas movie, since it has a sentimental element Die Hard lacks. |

Any episode of Kamen Rider that airs around Christmas is bound to have some Rider kicking of ass. Kamen Rider had the franchise's first Christmas episode, which saw Kamen Rider dropping a mountain on a bunch of Nazis. It also featured the Final Battle with one of the major villains of the series Colonel Zol. The Christmas episode of Kamen Rider Wizard saw Wizard meeting Santa, saving Christmas for a bunch of orphans and kicking Phoenix's ass again while doing so. A more infamous example would be the Christmas episode of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid, which featured Kiriya Kujo getting killed by Genm. |

Zigzagged in Hogfather. The driving plotline involves The Grim Reaper and his badass granddaughter Saving Christmas - and apparently ensuring the Sun will continue to rise - after a Psychopathic Manchild assassinates the Disc equivalent of Santa on the orders of an Always Frighteningly Lawful Neutral Celestial Bureaucracy. It does, however, contain something of a True Meaning of Christmas message with the revelation of what would have happened instead of the Sun rising: "A mere ball of flaming gas would have illuminated the world." They haven't been saving the world, they've been saving people's ability to make heartwarming poetry out of an uncaring universe. You have to believe in the little lies - like the Hogfather - to make the big ones — like truth, justice and mercy — a reality. | |

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The episode featuring Santa Claus Conquers the Martians features a host skit in which Crow presents his very own Christmas song: "Let's Have a Patrick Swayze Christmas", which combines holiday sentiment with allusions to Swayze's role in Road House (1989). Riff by Joel Robinson: "Big John Call IS Santa Claus in "O Little Town of DEATHlehem!" Meanwhile, in the other Christmas Episode, Santa Claus (1959), the last host segment has Santa Claus and the devil duking it out in a wrestling match right in the middle of Deep 13. Dr. F and TV's Frank are pleased. |

Futurama: two Christmas specials with a killer robot Santa and a sack full of ammunition-related puns ("your mistletoe is no match for my T.O.W. missile"). Plus this shows up again in the animated film Bender's Big Score, including the song "This Trinity's Goin' to War" when Robot Santa used his toy workshop on Neptune to manufacture weapons, with the help of Kwanzaabot and the Chanukah Zombie. Not to mention the finale of broadcast season seven "The Futurama Holiday Spectacular" that has not only a Christmas storyline but also action-filled Robanukah and Kwanzaa. |

Tsukiuta Stage Act 7: Cyber-Dive Connection is this, in sexy Cyber Goth costumes with new cyber swords, scythes, bows, etc. The main characters, 12 world-hopping boy band members based on the months of the year, are asked to enter a digital world to save Santa - it's heavy on video game references, light on plot, and more of a playground for the series to experiment with combining technology and live theatre. | |

Referenced in Left 4 Dead 2 with the in-universe band, the Midnight Riders, and their Christmas song you can find in-game. According to background info, the band had always hated the idea of doing charity music, but years later they were forced into making a Christmas album in exchange for avoiding 30 thousand hours of community service, cramming it out in an hour. The end result is the song "All I Want For Christmas (is to kick your ass)", which is about kicking Santa's ass after he steals your girl. | |

Super Sentai plays with this quite often - Power Rangers, not so much. Engine Sentai Go-onger sees the heroes team up with Santa using his magic sack to fight one of the main generals of the Gaiark. In Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Gai goes the extra mile and merges the Red and Green Ranger Keys so he can become "Gokai Christmas". Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger had the Kyoryugers fight against Debo Yanasanta, an evil Santa monster who planned to revive the Big Bad by giving kids bad presents containing his cells. Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers did have the season 3 episode "I'm Dreaming of a White Ranger". However, we didn't see a Christmas Episode for a long time because the seasons begin in February and end in November. Power Rangers Samurai had the first ones in a long time, one each for both years it ran, but the first was a Clip Show. The epilogue of Power Rangers Dino Charge took place in Christmas, where they fought a Christmas/Winter themed Bad Santa monster called Heximas who turned out to be the last survivor of Sledge's outlaws. The last episode of the first season of Power Rangers Beast Morphers takes place during Christmas and has Scrozzle going into a festivity-ruining rampage in the city over the rangers destroying his Cyber Dimension in a previous episode ("Tis the season for REVENGE!"). After trapping the Grid Battleforce Rangers inside holiday ornaments, it's up to their Beast Bots must save them and the city. |

Surprisingly averted in Team Fortress 2 proper; despite four straight years of Halloween maps and three annual "Australian Christmas"/"Smissmas" events that add "festive" items to the game, no official map has ever been released that takes place at Christmas.

The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic had, early in its run, four one-shot "micro-series" that focused on each individual Turtle. Both the Michaelangelo and Leonardo one-shots took place at Christmas, and featured lots of action scenes: In the Michaelangelo one-shot, Mike went out on Christmas Eve to enjoy the Christmas sights, play in the snow, shop for Christmas presents, adopt a homeless cat... and get involved in a high-speed car chase with gun-packing robbers who had run off with a truckload of toys that were being donated to an orphanage. The comic was eventually adapted into the episode "The Christmas Aliens" in the third season of the second animated series. The Leonardo one-shot is pretty much one long action scene, featuring Leonardo fighting an impossible number of Foot ninjas — interspersed with small snippets of the three other Turtles, together with April and Splinter (and Klunk the cat) making Christmas preparations. Like the Michaelangelo special, it was adapted into an episode of the second animated series, but without the Christmas elements. In the loosest sense of the term, the "Return to New York" three part storyline also takes place on Christmas, though it lacks any Christmas elements and is only indicated by a date on a newspaper that's easy to miss. |

Doctor Who Christmas Episodes tend to have plots involving things like alien invasions, crashing spaceships, etc. In fact, Christmas episodes are extra-long and twice as epic as normal episodes, second only to season finales in terms of how they'll go all-out. In the McGann movie, near the end, the Doctor warns Chang Lee, "Next Christmas, take a vacation. Don't be here." However, here the Doctor is referring to San Francisco, not London. "The Christmas Invasion", the first proper Christmas special, features an alien invasion and a Combat by Champion for the fate of the Earth. "The Runaway Bride" features aliens hungry enough to eat all of humanity, and the climax involves an actual tank shooting down the villain's spaceship. Lampshaded in "Voyage of the Damned": The Doctor and Astrid land on Earth at Christmastime and find the city deserted. Just when you think that's the mystery of the episode, Wilf tells him the reason that the city is empty is that everyone has evacuated the city thinking that something awful is going to happen. (They're right.) Lampshaded again later on in the same episode: "The Time of the Doctor" has it to an extreme level. Christmas is the name of the town, it is under constant siege by the Doctor's enemies. He teams up with the bloody Silence to fend off the horde, it is so bad. Narration indicates the siege of Christmas went on for over nine hundred years before the aged, dying Doctor decides to take them all out with The Last Dance... before, of course, getting a loophole in the laws of regeneration (much to his surprise). |

A time honored tradition in professional wrestling is putting on a show in front of soldiers for Christmas, such as when The Wild Samoans' World Xtreme Wrestling Promotion started going on tour to Afghanistan in 2002, though the most famous of these was WWE Smackdown's Christmas in Iraq, which got its own television special, where the requested present of several troops was "Choke slam me Big Show''. | |

South Park: The very first South Park ever made, a Web Animation, was Jesus and Santa having a knock-down, drag-out fight. Parodied with "Red Sleigh Down". Also "Woodland Critter Christmas", where not only does Stan battle a mountain lion, but a bunch of animals give birth to the Antichrist, forcing Santa to gun them all down with a shotgun. Subverted, though, as it's all a story Cartman is telling in class. |

Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a Terminator-esque Santa Claus with an assault rifle, and Clint Eastwood plays a Dirty Harry-esque Ebeneezer Scrooge with a shotgun... coming up next on Fox! | |

The majority of the Home Alone movies takes place around Christmastime. Kid defeats gang of thieves by turning his house into a Death Course. In the first two movies, it helped set the scene for the conflict between Kevin and his family. Oddly, the third averts this. There are visible Christmas decorations in the airport at the beginning, and a toy given as a gift to the main character helps set the plot in motion. However, the movie is explicitly said to take place on and shortly after January 8th. |

Subverted when it turns out that he's actually a delusional Mall Santa who had a psychotic break and went on a rampage at The Mall. The elves were his co-workers and shoppers, and Krampus was the mall's manager. | |

The Disney Loops has "The Christmas War" (recorded in its entirety in chapter 38 of the compilation), in which Danny and Adrien (both of whom hate Christmas due to family issues that come out during the holidays) create "Team Scrooge" (consisting of other Christmas-hating loopers) in order to attack The Nostalgia Critic's Christmas party, with a "Team Santa" being formed to stop them. In the end, a third group (led by Linkara) stops the fighting and talks some sense into the two of them. | |

Every December is Crimbo in Kingdom of Loathing (even though the in-game calendar can march on for 2-3 months during it.) During the event, it's regarded as tradition that Uncle Crimbo (the local version of Santa Claus) will royally screw things up and call upon adventurers to pull his chestnuts off the fire. This has included fighting off two different Alien Invasions, a hostile takeover by mutants, a hostile *corporate* takeover where the ass-kicking came from physically fighting the boredom of an office job, giant robots, and a massive protest over the entire thing that culminates in fighting an Eldritch Abomination representing Nature and the Anthropomorphic Personification of Communism. Stocking stuffers are usually buffing items and a couple collectibles, Uncle Crimbo's gifts are usually useless novelty items, but nicer rewards come directly from doing what adventurers do — beating things up and taking their stuff. | |

The Season 14 episode "Ninety North, Zero West" shows that Santa is a complete maniac. He kidnaps children to use as forced labor in order to dig out a hug mine so he can summon Humbaba and become all-powerful. Jack takes over Santa's palace while the Smiths leave with the surviving children and Santa crawls out of the ruins. | |

Terraria has the endgame Frost Moon event, where the player has to fight off waves of Christmas-themed enemies, with notable mentions going to the bosses: a living Christmas tree, an Ice Queen, and a mechanized "Santank" | |

The fifth volume of Full Metal Panic! is Die Hard on a boat on Christmas like the movie. This is actually a double ass-kicking holiday, as this is the novel that reveals that all Whispereds, including Tessa and Kaname, were born within three minutes of each other on Christmas Eve. Sousuke actually makes a point of getting Kaname a Christmas present and a birthday present. | |

The Season 3 finale of Cobra Kai is set a week before Christmas, on the anniversary of Johnny's defeat by Daniel decades earlier. In the episode, the LaRusso home is attacked by Kreese's students, leading to a brawl between them and the other two dojos. The attack ultimately forces Daniel and Johnny into a reluctant truce against Kreese. | |
