The 12th Day of Christmas

Now you can sing along, karaoke style! 
On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me…
And a cruise on a nice boat for free!!
Well, finally we’ve arrived at the end of the song, and an end to this list of epic anime moments from the past year. This series of posts has been a ton of fun to write, and has helped remind me of some of the many entertaining anime this year had to offer. I hope you all enjoyed it as well.
Honestly, I wish could keep on going, because there are plenty of other great shows and great moments I’d love to reminisce about.
Also, I would be remiss if I did not give credit where credit is due – thanks very much to CCYoshi for inspiring this idea, and to the ABC for helping to foster the community discussions that brought about this kind of idea sharing.
So what did you all think of this little experiment? Were there other shows you would have preferred to see on the list?
Seirei no Morito was a pretty good one this year, too. It’s hard to say who would get displaced, though. Maybe the zawa zawas since they only started at the tail end of 2007.
If there were enough days in the song I’d quote the fifteen angsty teens of Bokurano! I’m one of a defiant minority who still thinks that show was actually good…
Otherwise there’s a lot of my 2007 highlights in there – kudos for fitting them into the structure of the original song as well.
Lol, had a blast singing that (^_^’). Awesome Idea man.
You included music! Well played man. Now I don’t feel quite a sheepish for singing it to myself over the past few weeks.
I hope your cruise on a nice boat really is free, unlike that scam from NYAF!
And ONE TRIPEMAN.
@ tj han: Don’t you mean 1/3 of TRIPEMAN?
Other shows?
Where’s the Yuno love? (XO_____O)
@ TheBigN
Yeah! I really wanted to include Hidamari Sketch somehow, but I couldn’t think of anything good work with, so it ended up not getting included. ;_;
Really, I’m probably at least as disappointed as you are.
@ DS
No kidding! Fortunately, this cruise is completely free and not a scam at all. Duffel bag and head not included, some restrictions may apply.
[...] The idea was suggested by CCYoshi and you can check out Owen’s post for more info about the A.B.C. and the 12 Days of Christmas anime style. 0rion had started early and had already finished his 12 days here. [...]

Good way of portraying the 12 days of Christmas. It made me chuckle.
