This poll was suggested by our member lessaandflar. Pretty simple. Which major December holiday do you celebrate? (Although it's January right now...)
The choice of "Does New Year's Eve count?" is only applicable if you do not celebrate anything else, as I count New Year's as a January holiday (and the Eve of it isn't really a holiday...)

You can discuss this poll on our forums here:

I guess it's not manga unless most of it is black and white?

I'm with the majority who say "Merry Christmas!"

My dad thinks it's a "American Holiday" so we just put a Christmas tree and lights up. So we kind of celebrate it..xD;

it's not the fact that it doesn't 'feel like manga unless it's black and white'. To me, having it balck and white leaves stronger impressions on things that matter the most in manga - such as emotion in scenes, action, etc. Manga in colour seems to water down these features (or distract them from the reader), which is why things drawn purely as aesthetics (covers) or unrelated to the storyline (specials and extras) are better suited to colour than the actual manga. imo.
