Our Favorite Flipnotes from last weeks Topic "Christmas"

※Yul£$ten※ totally knocked our stockings off with this epic 2023 Christmas MV.

Featuring fifty different Sudomemo creators, each one exquisitely drawn with fine-line pencil technique, the expertly choreographed action plays out in spectacular fashion to a raucous Jingle Bells score that quite took our breath away.

(Don’t miss the guest credit list in the comments to see everyone included)


A pair of like minded Cat Box Heads come up with their ‘purrrfect’ snowman counterpart in this festively feline Topic winner by Traumid!1!.

We loved the inset screen presentation and shot linking camera moves that sets the scene beautifully as the day's Christmassy activities proceed.


Jam packed with Christmas imagery and Wacky OC action, this merry MV by Jake gets its seasonal greeting across with gusto.

We especially liked the starring of the top of the tree that brings the lively sequence to a close with a well timed twinkling flash!


Glance has a hilariously jaded view of this magical time of year, in this cynical sing-a-long Christmas MV by CosmicGAZ.

Visualized to the song’s lyrics, there’s everything from rudely snatching presents, to kicking out party guests that wonderfully captures the spirit of him as a supreme Yuletide Grinch.


Santa comes a right cropper after a grand Sudomemo parade, in this nostalgic Christmas message by zed.32.

The use of color is extremely effective, including a red-blue switch for the elephant's foot, as well as numerous combinations of paint brush shade.


Here’s something we thought we’d never see!

Santa and one of his reindeer are having a full-on slug fest in this beautifully animated beat-em-up Chrimbo shocker by Joshua.

What on earth could have come between them? We do hope they made it up in time for Christmas!


When it comes to tasting snowflakes, it’s always best to wait until January for the truly ripe ones to appear, so says Matt!

Georgie, on the other hand, seems much less convinced in this tongue-tingling Topic winner by Casjin-Alt.


You’d better watch out, because Father Christmas is making his naughty list, and woe betide anyone who gets found out in this hysterically nervous Christmas creeper by kit.


EpicSammy has animated a jolly, and literally rolling over Christmas greeting using their OC wearing a splendid Santa hat.

What a clever idea! It really brought a smile to our faces!


Comparing their youthful Christmas perspectives with their present ones Voxenl points out some funny, and rather disturbing interpretations of the lyrics to an iconic Santa Claus song.
