(I am not a reviewer and I suck at grammar and spelling so take it as you will) I had so much fun watching this story so I wanted to write a review for it. Let's see. I have no idea what this movie is about. Legit the story is a fucking mess but it great. One minute we have a some hot sorcerer turning toys such as snowman and nut crackers into fucking 10 feet+ versions of themselves that can't be destroyed with bullets then Akari bear saves her from a train trying to kill her and then apple (the bear) fights that sorcerer thatI can't remembers name, next when their fighting they go into a museum and awaken a monster that drains the entire cities electricity and then the sorcerer lady and Apple fight together with Akari to defeat the monster. That is the story in a nut shell but like if your the type of person when watching something thinks, "Why is this happening" and "The story seems to go way to fast and rushed" then don't watch this unless you like to complain to others about how bad this was. Overall this was just some fun action 40 min movie about Christmas. I forgot to mention the animation is awesome. The action scenes are great and the backgrounds to me were gorgeous. Nothing to say about the characters and music they were just average but I fucking love apple, way to much then I should have. Overall if you just want a fun short movie to watch that makes no sense at all then watch this. You will enjoy it.

So, I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw this ONA. I thought it was going to be a weird kid's thing, but I couldn't pass up what I saw from the thumbnail and short description. The story had a lot going on in it, which I thought was the only downside, but to be fair it was all in a 40 minute block. I loved the art, especially the background (the CG characters took a little getting used to, though). I genuinely enjoyed this short little Christmas Special thing. I would recommend it for anyone who is open to the idea ofa short story and some interesting characters.
