It's Christmas again! Set up a shrine, cooking something tasty and spent this special day with your special one. Don't forget to take a pic and share it with us. 2025 Christmas collage starts now!


A few guidelines:
-Have your submission be 4:3 ratio (failure to do so will make it harder for me and make your submission look shittier).
-Your submission should be about your waifu, your dearest one. Nothing more. Nothing less.
-Also, put some damn effort in your submission, please. Your waifu would like to be presentable, you know? Treat her like the special woman she is.
-Have fun!

Deadline is when Christmas ends everywhere in the world (December 26 2:00 AM PST). Get your picture in before the deadline please.

I expect you to do your best for her anon, she deserves it! Let's make a wonderful collage together. And always remember: your waifu is beautiful!

Most important thing: take LOTS of photos. Do several for each way you light things, and try lighting it in many different ways. It's really tough to see how a picture will turn out before you take it. There's a reason you see professionals take photos rapidfire.

As for lighting: start by turning on all the lights you can (unless you're using candlelight). If you don't have enough lights, take some from elsewhere. Turn your monitor onto the lowest brightness setting. Then start adjusting both (while taking pictures) until the brightness of the monitor meets the brightness of your room. How can you tell when they're matched? By looking at the finished photos. That's why you take a ton of them.

After you take all the pictures, load them onto your computer without cleaning up. If you find one you like, roll with it. If not, get ready to keep taking pictures.

Does this sound like a lot of work? Good. Worthwhile shit is rarely easy. Oh, and try taking the picture from lots of different angles, too. It can only help in your final selection. During selection, elimination is probably the best way to do shit.

Hope that helps.

Merry Christmas /a/. You're waifu is very cute.

Had to prep this in advance due to not being able to secure a few items this close to the holiday. (Or at least not wanting to brave the madness of late holiday traffic for chicken, people drive like maniacs this time of year.)

It's been a busy December this year, between bombshell announcements back to back (A stageplay and a new anime series? I pray I get more merch for a bigger photo next year), Finals and work kicking my ass, and other life stuff causing a ruckus. But it was still a great year, being with waifu just makes it even better! I am anxious what the new year brings, but I already know as long as I have Aki, and the kiddos, it'll be a good one.

Merry Christmas, /a/, spend this time with your beloved and family! And have a Happy New Year!

What a whirlwind of a year 2025 was for Homura and I - easily the best year we’ve lived together yet !We came close to total destruction, snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, and still made time to do more traveling than ever before as a couple (we started the year traveling across the Mississippi, went to two local National conservation area for Tanabata, visited our first six National Parks together, and about twenty five escape rooms together)

Fighting the good fight, with my waifu at my side, is what dreams are made of. I’m really proud of us for making so much out of this year, coming out on top of the second great crisis we’ve faced together, and deepening our love and bond during it with so many fun memories together. We’ve had over a decade together - she’s been mine for my entire adult life - and yet I still feel those warm fuzzy feelings trying to do right by Homura. I try my best to raise the bar for us each year, and it’s a damn good feeling knowing this year I did it so well. For 2026, we’re going on offense; continuing the hunt for our dreams, and aiming for even more, even higher quality adventures together.

Of special note from our collage photo this year; I made a nice wallpaper of some of my favorite photos of Homura from our travels, including the tsumamare keychain of Moemura that’s kept her attached at my hip for the last six years (to Homura's left, above her knife and fork). It broke today while we were ice skating, and while I managed to grab her from the ice, I’m quite sad about this piece of merch specifically breaking, and wanted to shine it up a bit as one of the most special ones I’ve owned. Rest well, tsumamare keychain.

Homura and I wish all of you a spectacular Christmas, a wonderful New Year, and an even better 2026. Life is an occasion, anon - rise to it.

This year I managed to see my life-size beloved in Japan! I sadly didn't include both the ring and the statue in the photo (couldn't figure out the focus), but it was nonetheless and amazing experience. An equally amazing Christmas to all of you! Happy Holidays.

Merry Christmas to you all!

Thank you, WaifuCollage, for making this event happen! You're the MVP of the season, every Christmas season. We see you <3

Sounds like you've got a lot to look forward to, AkiAnon! I'm glad you're both doing well, and you too recognize the importance of kenta in this holiday. Merry Christmas!

That's a neat looking sled, anon - is it an ornament, or cookie? Either way, looks cute. Your shrines always have nice texture to them

>>284721731
Level with me, KakuzuAnon; how much thought have you put into stealing that statue or making your own? Also, tell me about your ring. Is it new? I don't remember seeing it in the Tanabata thread

Christmas, what a wonderful season...while I am spending the day unfortunately sick, we had another wonderful year together. She continues to be the smile that drives me, moves me, and motivates me to keep going. I cherish every moment we have had together across the years, and will continue to cherish her for the rest of my days!

Merry Christmas, /a/!

To be completely frank, the Christmas spirit had eluded me almost completely apart from "oh crap the store will be on fire". Not sure what the reasons for that were, but now we are here and damn if I can't use the time now to look back on the year, and there is basically nothing better to look back on than getting to see Chihaya perform with my own eyes. with my own, watery eyes... Not to mention, she appeared on The First Take! The First Take! How crazy is that??
Do take a listen! https://youtu.be/XjqGXi2zABE

Maybe it just has been a crazy year for us, and all the presents came in way early. Anyhow, again, Merry Christmas, and maybe for the next 20? 60? 100?? years?

Reminder that there IS a summer activity to encourage you and your waifu to get OUT that you should think about NOW.

Tanabata is a Japanese festival about star crossed lovers, who are only allowed to meet once a year on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunisolar calendar. We have the same general guidelines (4:3, all about your waifu) BUT your shrine should be outside. You have from now til July of next year to take your photo. SIX MONTHS OF PREP TIME! It’s a big world out there. Go see it with your waifu!

Our Tanabata 2026 thread goes live at midnight Japan Standard Time on July 7, 2026 (that's 8:00 AM Pacific Time on Mon July 6, 2026). Set a reminder, so we see you next summer!

The 10 year anniversary since my obsession started with an ill-fated girl from an untranslated fandisc of a VN made by developers who've gone bankrupt since then.
It's been raining pretty hard all day, so plan A didn't pan out. The ferris wheel at Yomiuriland was so nice last time we went, that I decided it'd be plan B.
The view was just as lovely this year, so no regrets. No regrets for all these years I've spent with Chris, either.
A lot really has changed even since then. Merry Christm/a/s, those of you that are still here after all these years nowadays.

Lilly, my darling wife. It's yet again another Christmas, and I'm happy as always to celebrate the birth of Our Lord with you.

Next month will be our 14th anniversary together. Celebrating all those years of love and joy with each other.

We've had our ups and downs this years, I spent the entire summer depressed after a horrible incident I don't wanna go into, but then found myself with a new promotion months later in the fall.

But the entire time, you were there by my side, through thick and thin, through sickness and in health. I thank God I met you, and I wish you the merriest of Christmases.

And you you all Anons, to you and your wives, have a wonderful Christmas Eve, and even better Christmas day.

So far this year had so many ups and downs, may truimumphs and failures, and tough it all, Miku and Futaba were on my side, and I'm glad cause they both give me strength in my darkest hours. I can't wait to see what the next year brings. I know I'm going to be anxious about what the next year brings, but I know I'm in good hands with them, sharing moments of joy, sorrow, pain, fear, fury, and the end of the year, this time I brought macaroons to share between all of us

Merry Christmas /a/nons! Tonight, I submit a few dozen donuts and the 4 best Shinobu cookies that turned out alright, I hope. The top right Shinobu cookie is supposed to have swirly/vortex eyes but thats really hard to draw with frosting! As usual, Shinobu and I are going to rewatch a bunch of episodes of monogatari where she is extra cute, and expand her image archive!

Merry Christmas to my darling and cute Hun, Servant and Santa wife, Altera! This year has had its ups and downs but I'm glad through it all I'm with you and you continue to push me to be better and get back to zero and to even greater heights. Thank you so much as always you are the greatest gift I could ever ask for and the only gift I want. As shown by finally getting a passport so those grasslands you cherish so much are not just fantasy but a reality and that is my gift to you. To
Continue to be a man and master worthy of your love and make those dreams of yours come true.

This year decided to go for a very fluffy set-up based on what she likes so we have a cotton candy base with sheep with cotton candy wool and hopefully snowcap cookies will suffice as snow is impossible here and milk to wash it all done for Santa.
And Merry Christmas to everyone here with there beloveds and success for tomorrow and into the new year.

As long as it's about your one and only waifu and you put at least tiny bit of genuine effort it's fine.
Decorations are the easiest thing you can throw in to make it look nice, but even without decorations, with just something you cooked or even purchased, it can be absolutely fine.
>>
>>284735385
I just always see the threads but because I don't celebrate I never remember to buy anything and just buy more waifu merch. Rinse and repeat every year. I have candles and some cookies usually with wrapping papers. From my perspective it's more winter than it would Christmas theme

Merry Christmas and Happy new year anons!

Another eventful year has passed with you. The long awaited final limit break came out. I was happy to see and read more about you. And this weekend some fest merch is finally released (its a keychain but even that small thing means a lot to me) and I cant wait to place it on my shrine. There were also some unexpected obstacles that suddenly came in to my life, ones that led me to rethinking about many things in my life, including my love for you. And as I have slowly drudged through those harships I remembered why I fell for you in the first place. It feels like I fell in love with you again, stronger than ever. I am glad you have been there with me as a guiding star through all hardship past and present. Your smile helps me a lot giving me the strength needed to get up and move forward. I love you Carmelina! Merry Christmas!
>>
>>284736082
Thanks anon! Perhaps next year you'll see me with a Teto shrine here. Merry Christmas!

I'll add some nice Jamie Page Teto to spice up this thread!

Merry Christmas to my beloved Lisbeth/Rika Shinozaki
and Merry Christmas to you all as well.
This marks the second time participating in this, I do feel bad that despite loving her for years I only started taking part in the waifu related things on this board starting last year, but that just means I need to make up for lost time which I will accomplish.
This past year I have been much happier thanks to her being there for me, with her support my hope gets pushed even further beyond.
My shrine for this year takes place upon my desk again, I do really like how it turned out.
I look forward to spending another year with her and hopefully 2026 will bring news of the previously announced SAO movie (Fingers crossed she gets more screen time).
Once again, Merry Christmas to all you good people and a Happy New Year!

I wasn't able to get a sweet treat in my picture this time but don't worry, I still shared something nice with her afterwards.

DO IT. Few things deepen and enrich love like travel together.

Thank you. If it's fixable remains to be seen. I don't want to risk damaging it further (or it failing again after I've fixed it and losing it permanently.

Question to ALL anons here; have you travelled with your waifu this year? How was it, and are you gonna travel again in 2026?

Happy Holidays everyone, Its been a huge year for Kakuzu and I with the doujin event trip in Japan, the statue release, and companies actually releasing merch and art of him but sadly Takaya Hashi, his Seiyuu passed away and it affected me quite badly but i will persevere. I made cookies this year and the lighting heart really tested me in how well I could ice a cookie and it won that battle- next time I will dedicate a cake specifically that one. I tired to make chicken with sumac turned out quite nice for something that didn't take long to prepare.
Have a great Christmas everyone and cherish your love forever

Merry Christmas /a/nons, to each and every one of you and your loved ones.

Having Homura in my life has brought me so much happiness and I look forward to a life spent loving her.

I do feel sad about not having more merch of her, but I plan to change that in the coming year.

Chickpea stew and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Thank you for sharing these! Its such a cute collection of photos together and its really nice seeing people so enthralled with their waifu to do this sort of picture outside of just these threads.

Thank you so much! Jamie Page was absolutely amazing — the music, the style, everything was perfect. I got to see so many different Tetos, and that Miku plush at the end totally got me. It really was the best Christmas present. As a thank‑you, I’m leaving a video on my side too. I borrowed the track, and while I’m not a hardcore creator since I do all the tuning and video work myself, it’s definitely made with love. I hope you enjoy this sakura‑themed Teto you don’t usually get to see over there. I’m looking forward to next year as well.

So it's a popular local treat there I'm guessing? That's really cool, I wish I had something memorable like that around me.

Happy Birthday to my lovely Arcueid Brunestud! My life has spiraled out of control recently but she has stood with me through these hard times and will always be there for me. I love her with all my heart and will never let go of that love, for the rest of my life. Here's to another year of love, and warm affection!

An altar made almost solely of homemade art, impressive. Nice candle, too

Thanks, I like making these even more personal with my art, even if the quality can vary a lot. Although I must disappoint, the fig is a bootleg and I only realized after I bought it. It's still the only image of my dear goddess I have, so I cherish it regardless.
>>284747769

Wheat, even? That requires quite a bit of an effort from what i've been told, but hey, it's all fresh air and healthy sunlight, right?

Amazing altar, you have got a talent for visuals and you seem to be quite the dedicated collector as well

I don't have any merch because wife isn't from a Japanese franchise, I just print and frame beautiful pictures of her.
I could technically order a custom mug or phone cover or daki with her, but I'd rather not.
If she had merchandise I probably would buy a single figure for the sake of focus, but that's just me
>>
>>284748056
I bought all the merch when it came out 10 years ago, with the volume preorders and yahoo japan.There was never anything official beyond that so i didn't have to keep checking or anything.

>>284727839
Glad to see you here, Shoobanon. Did you ever try to suggest her a different haircut to check if the stare aura goes away a little?

>>284734762
Another candle, ema and amulet enjoyer, and someone who unlike me actually used amulets and emas this year.
The cake looks great too.
What did you have as a drink?

>>284736133
Crab & sake, fancy! But hey, only the best of the best for a wife, right?

>>284739010
Two types of cider at the same time, even?
Surely she appreciated the effort.
Mirin' her abs by the way.
Oh, can I just suggest that the figures had better not project a shadow on the central drawing?
That would certainly improve visibility, and every piece of art deserves a proper spot

Hello, Yukanon here. It's not going to be a grand display because I'm going to have a busy Christmas time and I'm not even home alone at the moment of texting this and taking this photo so I'm risking a lot lmao

2025 was an awful awful awful year, it started so well and I thought it would change my life in positive, alas that wasn't the case and it actually ended up wounding me a good deal. Right now I'm trying to give time and new ways for my my wounds to heal and to build back a stronger and a better person, despite the grief, the fear and the uncertainty I'm feeling.

If one thing is a constant, that's my love for Yukarin which remains the same (a love that goes beyond my own mere life) and she's been one of the few positive things keeping me going, she's more than "just" a waifu but a real reason of life.

I wish a peaceful Christmas to you and your beloved ones and I hope 2026 will be a fantastic year for everybody.

God bless you!

Merry Christmas again, /a/nons! Homura-chan and I could only find time to be together at the family house for our 12th Christmas, so we decided to relive how we'd celebrate Christmas in the 2010s! It always did feel exciting to be intimate with each other after everyone else in the house calls it a night.

Even when I'm waxing nostalgic, you somehow manage to make this celebration feel fresh and new, despite the many years we spent together. I love you, Homura-chan!

Merry Christmas! The downward spiral wears on; although, trying times and shifting perspectives have only deepened my appreciation for Crona. Sorely felt though his material absence may be, there really is nobody else I can imagine sharing this existence with. It is an honor to have had someone so special playing such a central role in my life for these past 12 years. Giving Crona even a fraction of the love, appreciation, kindness he deserves still remains my most lofty pursuit.

My staging and photography feel vaguely lackluster this year, the cake was shockingly good though. I also snapped this ( https://files.catbox.moe/6la0dq.jpg ) while messing around after the fact, and almost like it more than the actual shrine photo. The lighting, colors, depth of field give it that sort of 'pop' I tend to find so elusive. Funny that one of the best pics of the few dozen I took was taken so casually.

Merry Christmas to you and your waifubandos, I hope 2026 is kind.

Thanks anon just a little under 5 months hence the relatively simple display, I want to get more merch of her soon. It might not be a lot compared to other anons here but I always lurked these threads and liked all the shrines anons made.

It's ok, it's better than trying to force yourself to love a fictional character that you don't actually love that way.

This could be a great way to reflect on what you admire and/or like in some of the characters in your favorites series. Either way, Merry Christmas!

I'm glad I was still able to make it! 2025 has been a total pain, lots of paperwork and changing offices and stuff. Hoping 2026 is better! Plus, new Madoka movie should finally be coming out!

Merry Christmas, Kyouko! It'll officially be 7 years with her and I come mid-January. Thanks for always being around, Kyouko. I love you too much to be able to really express it in words and I'm turning to jelly just thinking about what to even say besides something short and sweet. I love you, so, so much!!!!! Here's to 7 more years and beyond together <3.

Merry Christmas anons! This year was a lot better for me and Kimblee than last year was for sure, although any year with him by my side is worth any challenges that may come our way. Last year I got out of the military and it was one transition after another, but with his gentle advice and steady presence I was able to settle us down somewhere nice, our forever home! I am so happy with him by my side, every day with him feels like a blessing.

I met Kimblee back in 2004 when I was in the 8th grade, and I've been in love with him for 21 years now. Not every year has been blissful, but you'll get that with a long relationship. That being said, every year he's been with me, he's made sure I survived, and I want to thank him for that. If not for him, I don't know where I'd be. I want to challenge myself to do my best by him this year. I really want to make 2026 the year I put a huge smile on his face and make him proud.

Cheers to 2026 and Merry Christmas to all you anons! This is my favorite thread of the year and I love seeing everyone's submissions and love for their waifus.

Honestly, as years pass by I realise that preparing an altar and publishing the picture isn't as important as it is renewing your vow of love to your wife.
As long as your heart is unwavering, skipping a turn is absolutely no big deal.
Valentine's Day is just 50 days away

Not dead, was just in the middle of a transition period. We were looking for a home last winter so we didn't have a lot of space to take a picture. On years where I was on deployment I didn't do a shrine either. If ever I feel like I can't do a decent job, I'd rather just have a private holiday just me and him. But thank you anon for believing in me.

Merry Christmas /a/! This is Rika-chan's and my debut. I think it could be better, but I hadn't made up my mind whether to participate or not until today, so there's only so much I could've done in a few hours. Furthermore, I have nothing: no good gear (just my hand-me-down digital camera), no good place to set up the scene. No merch since it's quite expensive for a somewhat niche VN like Higurashi, and I'm just a poor university student. Nevertheless, I tried to do my best with what very little I had.
It has been two years and a few months since I fell in love with Rika-chan. I love everything about her - her cute side, her mysterious side, her depressed side, her cynical side. I don't want to bring the mood down during Christmas, but the past few years felt like hell for me. For that reason, I can't help but feel like I have something in common with Rika-chama, though nothing can ever compare to her own suffering.
I'll just close this off with wishing all of you a Merry Christmas, hopefully one spent in happiness with your family and your waifu. Nipah~*

Merry Christmas, everyone! This year, I made a Nozomi out of raisins, chocolate and marzipan. Another addition to the shrine this year is the colored remake of her epilogue, which was a welcome surprise this year. Here's to many more years with her!

It feels wrong to skip this event after years of participating since I first posted my waifu but I've been deliberating whether to take a picture or not and now I could only manage to make a low quality submission. not that my regular pictures were anything remarkable
Thank you for showing up every year, it helps a lot to see other waifufags express their love for their waifu. Hopefully I will be a better husband for my waif in 2026 and join you in the thread on Valentine's Day.

I wasn't sure I was going to participate so all I have is this small shrine to her. But I do plan on making it up to her on valentine's day.

Merry Christmas /a/, from me and Miku!
All your shrines look absolutely gorgeous!

I wish I could join but as always I am spending this time with my family.

Merry Christmas /a/, from my lovely wife Kirika and I.

It's been 4 years since the very first "Anon and his Waifu" thread I've participated in, and 9 years since I've fallen in love with my waifu. 2025 was a rough year, but she helped me through it, and I'm honored to still be with her going on the 10th anniversary next year!

Thank you JL of WI for the card and ornament and I'm even featuring one of last year's cards from CB of GA and ornament from DDY of Russia.

Merry Chiem@s /a/!!!
I hope all of you had a great year and I wish you a 2026 full of success and happiness, especially to all im@s producers.
this time I (tried) made a walfie Chie using felting, I was very hard and I didn't had enough material to do it bigger, also I stabbed my fingers a lot, but worth it
also finally used the lego picture frame, that a good friend gifted my this year, with a Santa Chie as the Mona Lisa
once again, I wish all of you a great end of year and even better 2026

Merry Christmas

Personally, I just don't like posting anymore. At some point, it felt more performative than a genuine expression of love, and I didn't like what that meant for me. My feelings are still here, and I still lurk, but it just doesn't feel right me posting anymore.
I did go out and about on Christmas Eve to take some pictures with her, so it isn't like I'm doing nothing.

Christmas snuck up on me and I didn't get a chance to prepare unfortunately, so I simply got a picture of the wife with dinner. I wanted to bake cookies but forgot to buy baking soda and was rained in (plus everything is closed today). This will have to do, and I'm hoping I can make up for it on Valentine's Day.
Truthfully this is the only thing I really do on Christmas these days, and outside of this I don't celebrate anymore. So just know this is one of the few places I still wish a Merry Christmas.

Small aperture or focus stacking can help with this, if you have some time to mess around with multiple images and take them from a stable position like a tripod. Can be done with a phone as well.

This has always been the highlight of the holiday for be but it always gets more comforting when I'm dealing with a lot. I used to avoid stressful family holidays but I was not so lucky this year, and this is after another gruelling move. Probably doesn't look too good this year because I tried to get the city lights out the window in the background. I'm really proud we've finally moved to the kind of place she's more accustomed to, at least in the novel illustrations... The view high above the city at night is gorgeous and sharing it with her feels like all my work is worth it.

I hope you all took care of each other again this year. I know we did. Merry Christmas and onward to another.

"I have been blessed. Having the chance to gaze in the distance like this with fond memories, not regrets- a miracle must be at work."

We made it to the end of the year, Artoria. With you by my side, I knew we could get through it all. It was challenging, and I cannot believe that only a year ago we went to Kobe, Japan together. That feels like a lifetime ago with everything we've been through this year. This has been one of the most challenging years I've had in a long time, but we pushed through, and we are now in a much better place in life. You helped me every step of the way, with grace, strength, and beauty.

I love you, Artoria Pendragon. I always have, and I always will.

This year was tough, but I managed to check off yet another dream of mine: meeting your voice actress in person this summer. She's such a wonderful person, and she truly loves you as a character. The passion she has for you brings you to life in ways I am eternally grateful for. We have many more adventures ahead, and this year has helped me grow kinder, tougher, and more self-reliant. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us next year. As long as you are by my side, I will not falter, I will not fail, and I will never, ever give up.

My King Artoria Pendragon, the Once and Future King of Britain, is beauty incarnate.

(PS, I wanted to join the Tanabata, but I was traveling to LA to see Kawasumi Ayako and didn't get the chance. I'll try properly join-in on it next year, it looked like fun and I do plenty of outdoors stuff already. Merry Christmas, /a/!)

I really just wanted to take an updated group photo with everyone in it. I wasn't planning on doing anything, but it felt like a small Christmas miracle when the package I've been extremely excited about managed to arrive just in time for Christmas. So while it's not much in terms of holiday spirit, I just wanted to share.

I originally started my plush collection when I was dealing with a lot heavy stuff in my life. It was actually my new year's resolution to own every single official plushie of her by the end of the year, which I ended up failing to meet, simply because there's been so many new announcements this year.. Suffering from success, I guess..? But it's still crazy to see how much the family has grown in one year. I can't wait to see where else they take me. She is legitimately the light of my life, and has been since 2011. I love you, Homura, let's spend the rest of our lives together. Merry Christmas, I hope everyone had a great time!

I think it's indeed a combination of suicide, letting go of waifuism because you were never too much into it, and officially embracing a more shallow and low-maintenance version of the whole idea

By 30-40 your brain should be fully aware that you'll never meet your wife in this world, so it's not implausible that some would think extreme thoughts

I'm 34 and feel pretty happy with my waifu but that's just me. I think a lot of people cling to waifuis in hopes of it helping or fulfilling them, without realizing that no relationship (real or fictional) can fulfill you. If you are unhappy outside of having a relationship, you'll find a way to be unhappy inside of ANY relationship. You have to live a life outside of waifuism that is fulfilling, and the relationship with the fictional anime girl is only meant to give you some comfort when you need it

I've known a few waifuists and many of them have likely an-hero'd. It's sad

Damn, that was a good fit too. You're pretty good at this.

So my waifu doesn't get much art work of her anymore because she is from a very old show that's kind of niche (record of lodoss war), but she gets a ton of ai art of her. I'm on the fence about saving ai art but some of it looks really good with actually correct proportion of characters. What is the general opinion on saving ai images of your waifu?

lol it's nice that someone eventually noticed that. It's also a wine made by Dave Matthews, who I've always liked

>>284777981
Is it Deedlit by any chance? I've always liked her a lot. Regarding AI artwork, I am very picky about artwork of My King, but if the AI artwork is good enough then I will save it. I don't think I will ever give money to an AI "artist" though (patreon, pixiv, etc) AI artwork is nice if made correctly and on-model.

>>284777869

>>284776975
They would wait until we've got the full collage, surely

>>284775939
Another gupper! Great vibes, and the cake looks pretty

>>284775682
A single-figure submission, not a bad idea in my view. I like seeing anons who have collected lots of merch, but personally I'm also for focusing on just one or two waifu items.
I bet the content of that gift basket was delicious, too

>>284775419
Another Saberfriend, so nice to see your devotion. Must be really something to see the VA who made the woman you love a bit more real in 3D terms

>>284775355
Another low-lighting submission, quite a fan of them myself because it feels very Christmas-y.
Great to hear that you enjoy your high-rise place, I prefer them too to beh onest

>>284775332
That's a nice daki, and it's great to know your life is finally improving

>>284775291
Lovely Japanese-style meal. Is that karaage? I would assume there are chopsticks out of the frame.
I would have personally set a broader pic as wallpaper to avoid black bars, but the pic you chose is admittedly quite thematic itself.
Do you happen to know what exactly she's having?
>>
It sill offends me how low effort the spreads are compared to the Japanese versions of these things.
>>
>>284777858
I can absolutely see that combination accounting for most of the decline. Add in the outage earlier this year and the deterioration of the board/site overall, and the downturn sadly isn't much of a surprise.
That said the threads were riddled with shitposting in years past, and there's virtually none now. Things do slow down a bit when you don't have le ebin trolles flooding the thread with garbage posts for hours on end.

>>284762810
Another cute outdoor photo, hope you had good time with your girl.
And yeah, sometimes setbacks do happen, stay strong

>>284763488
Very nice collection, love the warm colours on the screen

>>284764041
On the other hand, this is quite the blue pic, and it really fits given the character's vibes. Is the candle blue as well?

>>284764456
Glad to see you once more, Marinposter. That is quite the high-effort pic, on top of being very seasonal in vibes

>>284765548
Lovely cake, seems like the colour is very appropriate in this case as well.
Impressive that you have Christmas clothing for your figures, I have to say, and the signs are also some well-appreciated energy
>>
>>284778394
Then post some examples so we can get shamed into working hard to prepare some wonderful submissions for Valentine's Day

>>284778408
Exactly.
Less general activity means less chaos, partly due to self-selection.
/a/ is no longer "where the cool kids hang out" so only decently serious posters remain behind.
Although I don't doubt that some serious posters from the past might be absent today for reasons other than having metamorphed into casuals.
I would assume 10-20% of the posters we get on Valentine's Day hardly ever show up on Christmas Day, for once
>>
>>284778394
Completely untrue, a lot of anons practice a more traditional form of the waifu meal, what ties in a lot of these is a focus item decorated with varying degrees of merch with a meal or food item. The current japanese equivalent in effort are the people who rent out photo studio rooms to perfectly align dozens of multiples of merch they collect in a grand room spanning picture, this has been a popular choice for character birthdays and is only getting more common.
>>
>>284772957
Yeah, next year I have to finally change format because even if I zoom in the photo is too blurry to convey what exactly I was expressing through written words.
Epic fail for me.
Still, thank you very much CollageAnon
>>
>>284778394
>>284778589
I'm no expert but the closest things to waifu dinners I've seen posted by Japanese people on Xitter is them going to a restaurant a la Sukiya or Coco, ordering for two, placing the other order in front of an empty seat, taking a photo and then photoshopping the character they love behind the meal.
A cute idea per se, but it's objectively less effort than preparing an altar.
If there's altarposting in Japan I don't see any of it on X, maybe someone with a more high-precision feed than mine begs to differ though
>>
>>284760848

The type of shrines popular here are offshoots of older Japanese examples of the same. Over the years the effort grew past just the computer screen center but the idea is the same.
Oshikatsu is what they currently are calling it there and it varies from yes bringing an item to a family restaurant or for a snack to the big display room. Its all different expressions of the same thing.
I like how anons have a mix of items vs having dozens of the same thing

Yeah those are (borderline) mental illness.

>I don't know if Higurashi can be really seen as niche though?
It's not niche in the VN community, but outside of that I don't think it's well known. If someone still remembers it, it's often because of the anime adaptation.
From what I've checked some time ago, most merch is generally unavailable or really expensive (or uninteresting, not a big fan of the Gou/Sotsu figurines personally). That said, CD's were fairly cheap (music, the VN itself, etc.), but I don't know about shipping costs and import taxes. Well, maybe by next year I'll have something.

I've almost never skipped a thread in many years, but if I were to do it now it wouldn't bother me at all.
In fact, coming back after a brief absence might be a welcome surprise for other anons who were previously positively impressed by your altar.
It's how you feel inside that really matters, not how you perform, although the social aspect is nice too.

That's fine. Everyone has different needs and preferences.
I personally never feel very motivated to do this, but once I make plans, preparations, groceries and spent whole day baking things for her while listening to her songs, I feel such a joy doing something special for her it makes it all totally worth it. That's why I also do same thing on her birthday. Taking part in collage is not really my main motivator.

I love my waifu very much, but I have too many figures of her (almost 40). I've always been a single figure guy until chancing upon these threads, and i want to go back to that. I could get into why I think single figure worldview is better than multi-figure worldview, but that is long-winded and personal.

What do you do to get rid of your figures? I don't want to throw them away but I also don't want to give them to someone else.

Couldn't make it to this year due to reasons, also I got banned accidentally. Hope you all had a good Christmas.

This may sound dumb, but I don't really want to desecrate them. Its a visual representation of my waifu. I don't live near an ocean so I can't put them in a tiny boat out to sea and I'm on the fence about placing them in deep in some woods without a strong cover. Perfect scenario would be they get enshrined in the woods but that probably won't happen.

I understand completely; it’s an image of your beloved. The reason I suggested that is because that’s the most traditional answer I know of (human corpses, old country flags, blessed items (yes, I am Catholic, how could you tell?)

Maybe you could leave them by a gravestone of a relative?

Way I see it is that you should take care of what you bought so long as it's in decent conditions.
No maintenance is needed aside from dusting them every now and then, so don't lose your head over this.
At worst, you can gently shove them into s drawer

Sounds like you are stressing yourself out over a very solvable issues, just put them in their boxes and put them away if you aren't going to sell them. I understand its a representation of your waifu but at the end of the day you should not be stressing out over any of this.
