Welcome back to the Advent Calendar!

Anna asked about your goals for 2026, but I want to know what you're excited for in 2026. Are there any games or anime you know are coming out you can't wait for? Are you graduating or starting something else new? Are you going on a trip to see a new or old friend? Or are you just looking forward to a stress-free year. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear about it!

For answering this question you can take four choice regular cards.

All Advent Calendar games will end January 1st, 2026.

Hey everyone! We're rounding down both our Advent Calendar and the year as a whole, so today we've got a timely discussion topic:

Best of 2025!

2025 has been a rather...odd year, at least to me. Looking back I have a general feeling of being kind of unsettled, and I'm not sure why - if I'm responding to the general vibe of society or if it's a more personal problem. A minor, uh, third?-life crisis where you waste your money on Japanese stationery instead of a sports car, or, at least, what's left of it after your health insurance premium doubles, anyway. But let's save those disconcerting musings for next year and instead reflect on the best things we experienced in 2025! The best movie you watched, the best manga you read, the best album you listened to, the best game you played, the best thing you ate, the best place you visited - anything goes! For me...

( Starting us off... )

For commenting with your own bests of the year, you can take 3 choice cards numbered 05 and 3 choice cards numbered 20. They can be from any deck - regular or special!

Like the other Advent Calendar posts, this game will close on January 1, 2026!

Welcome back to the Advent Calendar!

It's the usual. Let's play Word Association!

Rules
- I'll start us off with a word in the post itself.
- A commentator (#1) will reply with what word they associate with the word in my post.
- Then the next person will make a new reply saying what word they associate with the word in #1.
- And on from there!
- Please wait until at least two people have replied OR twenty-four hours have passed before you reply next.

Rewards
You will receive five random cards every time you reply... For a hard cap of six replies, or 30 random cards. (You can reply more than that, I just won't reward you more.)

The starting word(s) is...

Snowfall!

Welcome back to the Advent Calendar!

Let's be greedy today! If money or time or anything else were no limiting factors, what would your ultimate gift be? The thing you'd love more than anything. You can say "world peace" or "infinite money making machine" but it's okay to ask for 18 million blorbo figurines or a new car too. I want you guys to have nice things!

Well, at least I can give you some nice rewards instead. For answering you can take four choice regular cards.

All Advent Calendar games end January 1st, 2026.

Our Advent Calendar continues! Hanukkah's finally here, and you know what that means! It's time to:

Spin the Dreidel!

( Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, come play now, let's begin~ )

Like the other Advent Calendar posts, this game will close on January 1, 2026!

Hello everyone, welcome back to Advent Calendar.

I hope you're all having a cozy, comfortable December. I have a guilty confession to make: one of my favorite parts of this time of year is holiday music. Music in general really does allow me to relax some. Do you have any favorite songs from your culture or tradition that you'd like to share? Or do you play an instrument or sing in a choir you want to shout out? They don't have to be quote-unquote "holiday music" either. If you associate it with this time of year, even the loudest metal song in the world counts in my ears.

For answering this question you can take five choice cards spelling NOTES. Like musical notes, you know? 🎶🎵 Specials okay, doesn't have to start with the letter.

All Advent Calendar games close on January 1st, 2026.

Hi folks! For day 10, let's do a Colors event favorite--Picrews! 

Find a picrew (or similar dollmaker of your choice) and recreate your character! Some picrews have more options than others, so look around and experiment if you want. Some of them are also completely out there, so if you want to make your character as a furry, a cupcake, or a worm on a string then there is a picrew for you.

Post your image here and take two choice cards from that character's deck!

Advent Calendar is open till January 1st 2026.

Welcome back to our Advent Calendar!

We're spending too much time cooped up inside. Let's talk about our favorite outdoor winter activities today. Are you a sledding fiend? Make a mean snow angel? Do you ski or snowboard (I am jealous if that is the case). Or do you live in a warmer climate and winter is the perfect swimming weather, or are you on a sailing boat? Or anything you did when you were younger that you reflect back on fondly? If it's outdoors I'd like to hear about it.

For answering today's Advent Calendar discussion you can take four gray or blue cards in any combination -- all 4 gray, all 4 blue, or mixed and matched. Specials are allowed as long as one color is gray or blue.

All Advent Calendar games are open until January 1st, 2026

Hello everyone! Is it getting cold where you are? We've already had snow 😭

Today I want to hear about your favorite winter/holiday media! That could be Christmas movies you love, shows set primarily in the winter, a book that takes place over New Year's, an anime that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the holidays but you traditionally watch every year in December, etc.

For commenting you can take choice cards spelling SNOW. The letters can be anywhere in the deck name, and specials are allowed!

The Advent Calendar is open until January 1st, 2026!

Hey everyone! I hope you're enjoying the Advent Calendar so far!

Today's post is a short discussion idea hoping to bring some positivity to everyone.

Tell us about something you're proud about from this year! No matter how small it is. Maybe you drew a cool fanart, finished writing a fanfic, got that platinum trophy in a cool game? Or even something like finding a new cool fandom or simply "I got through this year in one piece (not the anime)".

For commenting, you can take 3 character choice cards, each one of a different color. Write what you're taking in your comment!

This game, like all Advent Calendar days, will close on 1st January, noon GMT!
