I don't really see what the problem is with #5, but then again I'm one of those weirdos who have a generally positive opinion on all things Japanese (okay, not ALL things, but still). What's wrong with Japanese girls, real or drawn, dressed up as Santa Claus? Or fried chicken as a Christmas meal for that matter? Hell, I'd vastly prefer having KFC over the crap that passes off as "traditional Christmas food" here in Finland...

I like that the "School Girl Anime (read: porn)" example they use isn't even from a porno/hentai lol. It's just a normal anime.

For some reason they apparently think the Haruhi series is a hentai series, cause every time they usually mention hentai in an article, they include an image of Haruhi.....

Fun fact: Santa originally wore Blue or Green. It was the Coca-Cola ads where he was first seen in red.

Well, it's probably one of the animes with more hentai doujins out there, along with Bleach and Evangelion. Not that I would know, of course

It depends where you are. In most of Europe, Santa wore Blue until the Coke ads came along. (In Germany & Switzerland, he wore Green) But yes, in America he was always depicted as wearing Red.
